Lovely
Villa La Romana is an absolute gem! Its traditional Algarve charm combined with modern amenities made our stay unforgettable. The location is perfect – a quiet and peaceful area yet close to stunning beaches and excellent restaurants. The outdoor area with the private pool and BBQ was a highlight, offering the perfect spot for relaxation and al-fresco dining. The shared balcony upstairs provided beautiful views, and the villa was clean, spacious, and well-equipped. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

All great!!
The blend of traditional design and modern comfort was just perfect. The private pool area was a paradise where we spent most of our time relaxing and enjoying the sunshine. The location couldn’t be better, within walking distance to beautiful beaches and local restaurants, yet peaceful and quiet. The villa was spotless and well-maintained, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The outdoor BBQ and dining area made our evenings extra special. We can’t wait to return!
The property was everything promised! As an unexpected bonus, when we arrived the property was stocked with essentials (sugar, coffee, bread, condiments, soft drinks) and even a bottle of red wine and a large bottle of Sagres. The next morning a representative met with us (Gabriella/Gabby) who was PHENOMENAL. Cheerful, helpful and very accomodating, Gabby was in contact with us throughout the week and even arranged a wonderful tour for us. We couldn't have asked for more from this experience.

Lovely Holiday Spot
Our stay was relaxing and pleasant, with a charming atmosphere that made it easy to disconnect and enjoy each moment. Dinner at Algarbe restaurant was a great addition and something we would definitely recommend.
Clean and safe location. All the amenities you need for a fantastic vacation.

Wonderful Getaway
We had a lovely time, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and the cosy setting that made our stay feel truly relaxing. The airport transfer provided by the company was also very convenient and helped start our trip smoothly.
Just arrived home after an amazing Holliday in Portugal this villa is perfect clean and comfortable with a lovely pool, our stay was made much more enjoyable by the representative Gabriela who gave us some great recommendations and sent us in the right direction for some amazing food. Well see you next time 😊
We had some difficulty finding the property as the name on the property is not Villa Romana. Overall we liked the villa size, location and cleanliness. We found the beds to be very uncomfortable. We paid to have the pool heated but about half way through our stay the temperature of the water became colder even though the manager said the heat was on. We were only supplied one bath towel each, no extra towels for the pool. Be prepared to supply your own garbage bags and dishcloths.

Great Family Break
We really enjoyed our stay, with plenty of space and comfort to unwind and make the most of our time together. The boat tour offered by the company was a fantastic extra that made our holiday even more enjoyable.
