About this property

Large villa, quiet area, private pool & near the beach

Enjoy your vacation in a very exclusive location in the middle of olive trees, eucalyptus and pine trees. In just a few minutes you are on the beach or on the popular tourist mile with bars and restaurants in Albufeira. Relax with family and friends on almost 5000sqm of their own terrain with a 10m x 5,2m pool, huge terrace, fig trees, oranges and much more. You will also be thrilled by the spacious rooms of the villa and give your vacation the right flair. Upon request, additional beds are available at an additional cost.

Being on the beach or in the middle of the action in a short time and at the same time living in a very quiet, well-tended atmosphere in the most beautiful nature is unique.
Children quickly connect to the facility. There's also a public pool (for a fee), restaurant, small supermarket, tennis court (for a fee), and more.
The relaxed, friendly way of life of the Portuguese allows you to quickly immerse yourself on vacation. It has many markets nearby where you can get typical local goods. The Mediterranean Portuguese cuisine leaves nothing to be desired in terms of culinary delights. Linguistically you get very far with English, but also with hands and feet if you have to. The Portuguese are very patient.
With the car you are in a short time in Vilamoura, Vale de Lobo or Portimao. Faro Airport is half an hour's drive away.
The Algarve has been one of the most popular golf regions in the world for many years. Golfers can choose from 38 courses with very different profiles.
But if you just want to enjoy the sea, you will find numerous dreamy bays that have been spared from mass tourism.

Very nice villa.
The villa is very big and it suits perfectly the needs of a big group of young people. The pool is incredibly nice and it has plenty of space to relax around. The villa is well maintained and cleaned, the forniture is complete and very functional. The location of the villa is convenient and it’s close enough to the beach and the strip. Really a best but!

Our experience
We went on a graduation trip to Albufeira with 18 people and had a fantastic week. The accommodation was absolutely wonderful even though it was a 20-25 minute walk from the strip (an Uber costs less than 1 euro per person) and it's definitely recommended for bringing groceries back as well. Here are some tips for those going into the week without any prior knowledge: you will almost every day be approached by 'proppers' trying to sell you tickets. This is both recommended and not, because on the one hand, you get wristbands for the week and can enter and exit the clubs you choose without paying again, but on the other hand, they probably take a lot of commission from you so they may not be entirely honest about the 'best price'. Restaurants like San Martino by the beach are highly recommended, but also search on Google yourself as there will be plenty of reviews. All in all, we had a really fun week and this house certainly contributed to that!!

Staying with Large family
Great Property, only downside was that the property didn't have air conditioning and only 1 fan for a property of this size. Local restaurants and supermarkets are accessible via a taxi service (uber is ideal). Great outdoor dining area and pool, would not recommend this property for a wheelchair user. Lots of stairs. Other than the aircon situation would definitely recommend this property.

Amazing
We were a group of 14 university friends and loved it. A fantastic property in a quiet location within walking distance to the strip. Pictures don’t do the place justice! The pool is massive and gets cleaned regularly. Kevin is very friendly and helped us out with any queries. Couldn’t recommend enough.

The area is not safe
The house was very nice and well maintained at first sight, but the area does not seem to be very safe. Already in the first night someone entered our house while we were having dinner on the terrace and stole several wallets and bags. One of our friends happened to see the thief and was threatened by him. The police told us that this was not the first theft in the area in recent days. So far we have also received neither help nor sympathy from the house owners. Not a nice start to a vacation to file a report with the portuguese police until 3am...

Perfect stage for a teenage group of 16 girls
My daugther and her friends spent a week in the villa and it was great! They were welcomed by the host very friendly. Location is good, uber to the strip was very cheap. Other friends also stayed in the same area. Close to the beach as well. Overall, many thanks for the warm welcome!

Toller Urlaub
Wir haben einen wunderschönen Urlaub mit der kompletten Familie im Haus verbracht. Der Pool war super und der schöne große Garten war ein Paradies für die Kinder. Der Minimarkt hat super leckere Brötchen. Die Vermieter haben auf jegliche Fragen direkt reagiert und die Kommunikation war super nett! Wir können es nur weiterempfehlen! Vielen Dank für alles!

Heerlijke woning voor gezelschappen
Het huis is heerlijk, met een prive zwembad, voldoende badkamers en slaapkamers om met een groter gezelschap te verblijven. Het contact met de eigenaar is zeer goed, vervoer van en naar vliegveld werd geregeld en lokaal is er een contact persoon die ter plekke ook prima alles voor je regelt. Je zit iets verder van de uitgaansgelegenheden, maar met een Uber ben je overal zo. Een aanrader!

Honestly an amazing stay
Short and honest review of our stay (17 people): The villa was great. Better and bigger than we originally thought. It was so big initially it felt like a maze. Nothing to point out what was bad about it. The swimming pool was big and nice aswell. It was kept clean by the poolboys who came during our stay which was very nice. Also the gardeniers kept the garden nice and clean. Last but not least, the service from the housekeepers was amazing. When something broke they would fix it within the shortest of time and they we're very nice about it. Nothing to worry when something will break! Had a great stay! Maybe till next year :-)

Wonderfull week
We had a lovely sunny week. The house and the garden were unbelievable and the great location near the beach, made it lovely. We had a company of 11 teenage boys and the house fulfilled all our desires. If you are looking for an amazing yet relaxing week, this is the place to be. Thank you for the great care Lena and Graham!

Un bon séjour qui aurait pu mieux se terminer
Très bon séjour de 1 semaine avec mes amis, la maison est très grande et peut accueillir 12 personnes sans problème. Proche à la fois de la mer et des quartiers animés, cette maison rassemble tous les critères désirés. Malheureusement, au moment de rendre la maison, aucun état des lieux n’a été fait et lorsqu’il a été question de récupérer la caution, les propriétaires ont exagéré et menti sur l'état de la propriété. Résultat des comptes il a fallu parlementer longuement pour ne pas perdre notre caution entière mais seulement une partie pour quelques chaises en plastique cassées et non ce qui avait été annoncé par les propriétaires. Je recommande cette maison à la condition d’exiger un état des lieux lors du départ pour éviter tout problème.

Perfect for a larger group
We stayed here as a group consisting of three families, five adults, six children. The villa felt very spacious inside and out, allowing both adults and teenagers to have their own space to relax and chill out. The pool area felt very private and was just perfect with plenty of sun loungers (with adequate shade if needed) it also got the sun until early evening (about 7pm). The kitchen was very well equipped, and we made good use of the out door eating area.
