Lovely property, nice village near the beach
We stayed here for a week in mid April, unfortunately the weather wasn't great, but Martin the property manager was super helpful suggesting places we could visit and gave advise on boat trips and walks around the beautiful coastline. The villa is a short drive or nice walk from Carvoeiro, which has lots of shops and restaurants. The property is clean with a lovely private pool that we used in spite of the chilli weather, a barbeque that we also used. Our only gripe was the upstairs bed was uncomfortable for us (very hard), though the rest of our family had no complaints.

Lovely villa
The villa is lovely, spacious, clean, and in a perfect location. We paid for the pool heating and it was well worth it! The pool was lovely.
I will say that the bed was definitely way too hard for me and this was agreed by the other members who stayed at the villa with us.
The only down fall was the checkin process with villa Algarve. On the booking it states you will receive the checkin information a week before. I had to contact the company 5 days before, and then I messaged them on the day of travel and was advised to contact them an hour before arrival, so I called as we left the airport as that was an hour away. We were literally outside the villa and they would not give us the codes until 10 minutes before checkin times.
We would have been happy not to enter the villa until agreed checkin time BUT you hear of so many horror stories with villas that this process made us all very nervous and we have booked around 15 villas with Vrbo and never before had these issues, so I would be cautious of booking a villa again if villa Algarve is the property manager.
I will say there was no issues with the refund of the damage deposit as I have read in trust pilot for villa Algarve.
It is a shame that this put a dampener on the holiday that need not of happened.
Villa was perfect

Fine
The property is great; we enjoyed our stay and have booked for next year. Unfortunately I wanted to sleep in the upstairs room, but the bed was extremely hard, so had to sleep in a single. There was also a leak in the upstairs bathroom, which I fortunately heard and reported so it could be fixed, which was an inconvenience, as it was nothing to do with us. Also; we booked for the pool to be heated, but it was heated so much it was like stepping into a very hot bath which made me feel a little nauseous, so I asked if the temperature could be turned down so it was just warm. I had no response to this for 3 days, and then was advised it could not be turned down, it was on or off, which I find hard to understand, so I asked for it to be turned off, which then made it really cold, but it was the only way I could use the pool. Not sure if there was a language misunderstanding ref the temperature but I would be keen to know if it actually could be set at a lower heat and if so I would book it for next year. Also, there was only one umbrella outside, so we asked for another 2, which were provided, but neither of them worked, which was disappointing. Other than this, we had a good time.

Substandard stay for a villa of this cost, but a lovely swimming pool
Potentially amazing villa but our trip was ruined by cockroaches (biggest ever even after 2 years travelling Asia), mini spiders and ants in the kitchen. No air-con in living area.
The agency is efficient but a little abrupt in communication at times. Plus a very weird secretive check in which actually meant the villa had a different name?!?
The pool was awesome though. The location was pretty good and the villa has amazing potential.

Beautiful villa
We had a lovely stay in this villa, which is in a great location with stunning views. Good sized rooms and amazing pool. Karen was super helpful and booked a boat trip for us - an absolute highlight of the holiday. Only negatives were the ants in the kitchen (to be expected with the heat I guess) and the mattress upstairs was a bit hard. Would certainly book an Algarve Villa again.

Belles vacances ensoleillées
Très beau séjour, avec une belle vue sur les palmiers et la mer, un peu loin de la plage pour s'y rendre à pied car le coin est très en pente. Sinon un village très animé, beaucoup de restaurants et de boutiques, de belles balades à faire avec des paysages magnifiques.
