The pool was lovely, the interior is a bit dated and needs updating. There were no basics for etc washing up liquids utensils etc. It does say in the welcome pack they do not provide but would have been helpful to know beforehand including no non bags either.

Lovely place but…
Good points: * Great location, quiet, sea views * Lovely grounds, colourful planting and well maintained * Very good, clean and well maintained pool * Spacious, light accommodation * Lots of crockery Not so good points: * Not very clean - we needed to run the dishwasher 2 - 3 times for glasses and crockery before using. Some furniture and surfaces needed a wipe over. Needed a deep clean * Sofas reeked of cleaner products - smelt like lots of chemical dry cleaner used over a long time. Despite my request, fumes were very evident the whole week we were there * No hot water was available until mid afternoon. We recognise the value of using solar energy but this was very poor. * Basics like bin bags etc…. would have been valued. * The maid did not visit. * The smoke alarm went off late one evening - a battery change needed we think as there was no smoke * TV - couldn’t get English language! (I think it was German) * Fittings etc didn’t fit very well and some aspects needed refreshing! * Inaccurate information. We expected a visit from Michelle Edgeley but were later told this was incorrect. Overall, despite the cons we had a good stay. Rating 3/5 - would be 4/5 if we felt more regard had been given to our request regarding my wife’s chemical sensitivity.

We were told when we arrived that the Dishwasher was faulty and would be replaced with a new one within 3 days. That never happened. With 10 people staying at the property it resulted in a lot of work. For the money we paid for this Villa we feel that some sort of compensation is due. The situation was totally unexecctable. Furthermore the lounge table had no top as it had been broken which was not useable that got replaced whilst we were packing to come home. Again unexceptionable. I am reluctant to do a review as the Villa is great.But I do feel compensation is required

The villa lived up to its billing. Probably could do with a car. We used Ubers which were reliable by times. Only problem and nothing to do with villa we were eaten and got a lot of bites so just be beware. Otherwise all great. Villa well equipped

Fell in love with Algarve !
Perfect location. Beautiful property, lovely garden, kitchen very well equipped , beautiful small sandy beach at 15 walk where jogged every morning . Extraordinary coast with cliffs and bays . Breathtaking!! Only small issue is the noise from the road between the house and the sea . Otherwise very quiet . Strong recommendation!

Great house.
Great location. Nice view. Spacious house with heated floors. Kind management who were very helpful, even meeting us at 9PM to welcome us and introduce us to the house. Was a bit disappointed that we used very little electricity and still paid an electric bill that was about 10-15% above the quoted price for our stay. I would stay there again. It was great for vacation with little kids and extended family.

Lovely villa, good location, great views of the sea.
Beautiful villa was clean and well kept, well maintained outside areas, lovely pool and great views. Great location for exploring the Algarve especially the fantastic and varied beaches. Enjoyed the BBQ and restaurants in Ferragudo and Carvoeiro but booking is advised at these and beach bars in peak seasons. Two families had a lovely holiday here at number 13

Fantastic stay at this beautiful villa
We had the most wonderful holiday in this fantastic villa. There were two families staying together and the villa was perfect. There is plenty of space and the pool is absolutely gorgeous. The sea views are stunning and beautiful to wake up to every morning. All the bedrooms are very nice with nice bathrooms. The kitchen is great and there is a really useful utility area. The living room is a great size and lovely for relaxing. There are lots of sun loungers and areas to sit and relax. There are also lots of portable fans which were great for really warm evenings. The wifi was pretty slow but this was the only minor issue. Everything else was wonderful. We went to all the local restaurants and beaches and loved everything. The maid service was also outstanding. Thank you so much for a fabulous holiday at your beautiful home. We would love to come again.

Die Villa ist super gepflegt und bietet genügend Möglichkeiten um auszuspannen. Man sollte auf jeden Fall mobil sein (eigenes Auto oder Mietauto) wenn man hier wohnt. Wir waren im Herbst hier - man sieht Sonnenaufgang und Sonnenuntergang. Es waren wirklich schönen Ferien. Stephan Trabold

Sehr schönes Ferienhaus
Wir waren eine Woche mit der Großfamilie in diesem schönen Ferienhaus. Von Großeltern bis Enkel hatte jeder Spaß. Das Haus bietet sehr viel Platz und hat alles was man benötigt. Das Haus und die Einrichtung ist zwar etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber das hat uns keines Wegs gestört. Das Highlight war der Pool. Die Lage ist etwas abseits aber man ist mit dem Auto schnell in den nächsten Ortschaften. Wir können das Haus empfehlen und würden es wieder buchen.

Ubicación y vistas perfectas
La vivienda tiene una ubicación y vistas excelentes, quizás necesita algo de renovación en cuanto a iluminación, ropa de cama o toallas, hay suficientes pero algo deterioradas para un alquiler de este precio. Aún con esos detalles mejorables, la estancia ha sido estupenda y la casa resulta muy agradable. Podríamos repetir sin problema.

Excelente vista de mar na maioria dos compartimentos. Exterior bem cuidado, incluindo barbecue e pérgola com mesa grande, para agradáveis refeições ao ar livre. Cozinha muito bem equipada. Único ponto menos positivo são os degraus entre compartimentos no piso térreo, que limitam a acessibilidade a pessoas idosas. A repetir.

Bon rapport qualité/prix
La villa était conforme aux photos de l'annonce. Elle est bien équipée même si tout n'est plus de la première jeunesse. A plusieurs reprises, les douches étaient trop justes niveau température et la pression d'eau assez faible. Bonne communication avec les gérants et arrangeants avec les horaires de départ/arrivée. Pas de soucis de nuisances sonores avec les villas alentours. Quelques restaurants et une supérette à proximité font l'affaire.

Das Haus ist wie in der Anzeige beschrieben.
Viele sagen das Haus wäre hellhörig. Man hält sich den ganzen Tag im Freien auf und abends legt man sich schlafen. Klar klappert mal eine Tür und in der Nachbarschaft bellen auch Hunde, aber wo ist das nicht der Fall? Was wir etwas störend fanden, war der Montagmorgen, da war schon ab ca. 8 Uhr in der ganzen Nachbarschaft von Gärtnern Gartenarbeit angesagt und ab 10.30 Uhr waren Sie dann bei uns und haben Rasen gemäht! War nicht so prickelnd, aber muss eben auch gemacht werden. Wäre halt toll, wenn man die Info gehabt hätte, dass Montag der Gartentag ist, dann hätten wir einen Ausflug geplant. Was uns gestört hat, war die Straße die hinterm Haus in Richtung Meer verläuft, da war nix mit Fenster auflassen. Manche Tage war sehr viel Verkehr, manchmal gings. Aber alles im erträglichen Rahmen. Sehr nett war Frau Zickler, immer erreichbar, hat uns tolle Tipps gegeben zum Essen und Strände!!! Echt TOP!!!

Recht schön, aber Raumaufteilung zum Teil nicht gut
Grosses und komfortables Haus in ruhiger Villenlage. Keine direkte Nahversorgung. Schöne Gartenanlage. Im Haus ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht, sogar Netflix ;-) Sehr gutes Wlan. Schmutzige Bettbezüge unter den Laken, stark quietschendes Bett. 15 Minuten mit dem Auto zum nächsten Strand. Hellhöriges Haus mit dünnen Türen. Sehr schwierige Raumaufteilung im Obergeschoss : 2 Doppelzimmer und ein Kinderzimmer teilen sich 1 Bad. Kinder( es waren bei uns 2 Jugendliche) müssen durch ein Doppelzimmer, um zum Bad zu gelangen. Das schafft viel Unruhe und keine Privatsphäre. Wir würden hier nicht mehr buchen.
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar 2020
Dear Heinz, We are very sorry not to meet your expectations. We try to be very transparent and clear on the website so our guests don’t encounter any surprises when they arrive. We mention in the title that the villa is suitable for 8 adults and 2 children because of the children’s bedroom (bunkbed 90*200cm) attached to another bedroom. We have some beautiful nearby beaches. For example Praia dos Caneiros in Ferragudo only 2 kilometer walking distance and 2,9 kilometer, 5 minutes by car. Another great beach Praia Grande is located 4,1 kilometer from the villa, a 6 minutes’ drive by car. We advise you to contact us during your stay, we probably can solve a problem instantly.

Wauw!
Wat een geweldige villa! Bij aankomt konden wij onze ogen niet geloven. Wat een kast van een huis! Het ziet er absoluut zo uit als op de foto's! De kamers zijn allemaal erg netjes, voorzien van ventilator en heerlijke bedden. Minpuntje is dat er een villa naast het huis gebouwd wordt. Waarbij de bouwgeluiden niet ontbreken. Maar daar kan je helaas niets aan doen! De omgeving is erg mooi en er is veel te doen! Supermarkten zijn op zo'n 5 a 10 minuutjes rijden. Ideaal dus. Een vakantie om nooit meer te vergeten!!!
