Not quite as described
We stayed as a party of 9 (4 adults, 4 teens and a 10 year old). I think it’s useful for other potential guests to know the following, based on our experience: 1. The 2 bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs are only suitable for small children or anyone under 3ft! They are basically loft rooms, no windows, I lost track of the number of times we banged our heads on the roof and trying to make the beds when you can’t stand up is difficult. 2. The location of the property is remote. The plot to the right is a derelict/ ruined building, overgrown etc and to the left, same sort of thing but half buried shipping containers in the ground. There are 3 neighbourhood dogs that roam about from early evening onwards. They bark (a lot!) and beg, especially if you are eating outdoors/ BBQ etc. 3. The address given was not recognised by any of our sat nav’s. We used last/ long co-ordinates to get us there. 4. The pool is freezing. “Colder than the sea” as many of our party observed, and yes we did all swim in the sea regularly. No pool heating. 5. Wi-fi allowance is incredibly meagre. We got a message after 8/9 days to say that we had used up our allowance. I don’t know how. Adults were just checking emails (2 of us are self employed) 2 of the teens streamed a film one night and that was it! We emailed with owner to ask for this to be sorted but did not hear back from her directly. Obviously we were checking regularly but none of us could get on. Denise (caretaker) told us, as we were checking out, that it had been sorted but it really hadn’t, I can assure you that none of our internet savvy party could get on the Wi-fi for the majority of week 2. I think for the money we payed (over 4000 euros) there should have been Wi-fi for the whole stay. 6. The house is poorly equipped. We have been using HomeAway (and formerly Owners direct) for the last 15 years or more. We have stayed in many, better equipped properties. Not enough mugs/ glasses/ subbed mats/ rubbish (broken) knives etc.. 7. If you want to watch TV for a break from the sun for example, it’s not great. There is a DVD player but no DVD’s so you must take your own. At the end of the day, a holiday is what you make of it. We all had a great time together. The beaches in the area are really lovely. We will be using HomeAway again but will not be booking this property again.

Fantastic Villa
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful villa. It has everything you need. Very clean and plenty space. Upstairs bedrooms are dormer roof but suited our kids perfect, they both have ensuits and air-conditioning so no complaints. Great size pool, had some fab evenings there with a bbq. Would definitely recommend.

Remote Villa not as described
The owners description is totally misleading. It is certainly not 1.5 kms to the nearest beach  Manta Rota beach (the closest beach) is 4.3 kms away from the villa. I walked it and it took me 50 mins (I don't walk slow). To drive it takes at least 10 mins. Tavira is a 20 - 25 mins drive and not 10 mins as described. There is absolutely nothing close by. Not even a shop. The description suggests there is a restaurant 500 metres away, but there isn't one. Had we known how remote it was, we would not have choosen to stay there. We were under the impression that we would have a 20 minute walk to the beach due to the distances stated. I was absolutely in tears when we arrived by taxi and realised have far it was from anything. We had 4 children with us aged 2-9 yrs and I we knew we would be stranded without transport. We had no other option, but to hire 2 cars. Fortunately Denise the caretaker helped us arrange 1car hire the next day and offered to take us to a supermarket in to get provisions. The nearest supermarket is 1.8 kms away. We ended up spending just under €500 extra on hiring cars!The view to the sea is very difficult to see. Yes you probably could see it with binoculars! There is not a mountain in sight of the villa, not sure why mountain views are mentioned in the description. The villa is nice enough, but there are a few issues. The football table is broken. The bedding is not great. The white sheets are yellowing and the pillows are all stained. There were no beach towels, as described, so we had to ask for them There is a hole in a paving slab close to the pool and two of our young children injured their toes in it. The pool area could do with anti slip material; our children kept falling over once the area became wet. Toilet paper is only provided for the day of arrival.The kitchen equipment is poor - there was only one teaspoon provided.  The frying pans are very old and in bad condition.We really didn't want to cook with them, as they look disgusting. A lot of the crockery is chipped. There are no serving dishes. You need to buy your own dish washer tablets and laundry soap. The iron had exposed wires, so we had to ask for it to be replaced.The wi-fi is not reliable.The shower cubicle is broken in the double bed bedroom and leaks very badly, also has black mould.There is no high chair. We were without gas on our last night. Thank you to Denise and Jimmy for their help. It it wasn't for them, our holiday would have been a disaster!

In a quite area which was nice for us. Pool and outside area is great. Upstairs rooms have a low ceiling which might be an issue. Otherwise appliances all worked, and house is spacious...would definitely recommend to others.

A casa é agradável mas não deslumbra. os quartos superiores são muito acanhados e mesmo para crianças muito baixos. A casa estava limpa e a localização é boa.
