Comfortable and clean villa in good location

We really enjoyed our holiday at Villa Castelos. It was very spacious, clean and comfortable with a fabulous pool. It was well located for sight seeing and there is an excellent and reasonably priced restaurant within walking distance. We will definitely return to this lovely area and to this villa.

Fabulous house for large families/group friends

Thank you for the fabulous house you gave us! Everyone loved the week, the house and all the space and features you have there! Really nice place to spend a few days with a group of friends or a large family. Really quiet and peaceful place. You have everything you need in the kitchen, dinner and lounge room, wc for everyone and a very pleasent garden around the pool, with a lot of toys and places to rest by the pool. Definitely recommended!

Superb villa in a quiet, private location

Probably the best villa myself and family have stayed in. Very spacious airy and well equipped. A quiet and private location, with just one bar/restaurant in the close vicinity, but lots of others a short drive away. For me, Olihao, is a must, to visit, for markets, shopping and bars and restaurants. I will recommend this villa to friend and family and will visit again.

Superb Villa

Really impressed all round, spacious, well equipped, pool was fantastic, recently re-grouted, underfloor heating was really nice with the cold evenings. Would recommend this villa to family & friends. Weather was really nice, even dipped our legs into the pool, sun loungers were really soft & comfortable. Facilities provided in the villa were top class Neil Yellop

From start to finish we had an amazing time. The villa exceeded expectations! Sue was lovely and went out of her way to help in any way she could. The villa had everything we needed and our kids loved the x box!! It was a good base and meant travelling to Vilamoura, waterparks etc was not a long journey. Will definitely be back! Thanks for letting is stay on your beautiful home.

Wonderful time at a great villa

Eight of us (six adults and two children) stayed at Villa Castelos for a week at the beginning of July. All the rooms in the villa are very spacious and it could easily accommodate another two people. Having four bathrooms was great and meant no logjams when we all wanted to get ready in the mornings or go out in the evenings. Allied to this there was always plenty of hot water for everyone for showers / baths. The villa has all the amenities you need for a holiday, with good kitchen facilities, BBQ and loads of cooking utensils / cutlery / crockery. The free wi-fi was a great boon and three or four of us used it a lot without any major signal problems. The pool is fantastic and the water is kept at a really nice temperature – I’ve been in pools in Portugal before where the pool has been so cold it barely got used. Not in this case – we were splashing about in it everyday and it has some nice pool lighting for the evenings. It was great just sitting outside in the warm evenings and sinking a few cold beers! There are two big fridge freezers in the villa by the way so plenty of space for all the food and drink needed. The villa is well maintained, quite private and the area itself is quiet so if you just want to chill out all day you won’t be disturbed much. I wouldn’t recommend using the villa without having a car as there are no shops nearby and only one restaurant (Maria’s), which is about a half mile walk from the villa. The roads around the development are unfinished and a bit bumpy but a minor inconvenience. A ten or fifteen minute drive will take you to Olhao or Moncarapacho. We tended to go to Olhao as it is much bigger and has a significantly better range of shops, supermarkets and restaurants. The villa owners, Reg & Gill, are very helpful, accommodating and easy to get along with. They can also be quite flexible with dates, presumably as long as not the peak summer weeks, if you want to try to tie the booking in with cheap flights. Sue, the property manager, is also very helpful and just lives round the corner should any issues arise. All in all I would definitely recommend Villa Castelos.

The best pool we've had on a holiday.

We've just returned from a week at this villa and we enjoyed every minute. Large villa with plenty of space. Very comfy. The heated pool is amazing. It's the best pool we've had on a villa holiday because of the fabulous temperature of the water. We used the pool every day even into the evenings. Great communications with the owners & the manager out there is very helpful. A car is a necessity but it's easy to find your way around. Albufeira and Quarteira aren't too far away. I would definitely recommend it.

Great Time had by all !

Arrived to a clean and tidy villa , beds all made up . Villa is of a very good size , plenty of big toys for our children Villa has been well looked after , everthing worked correctly, Aircon was a massive plus. We found this part of portugal very resonable price for meals and drinks, typical costing us about 50 Euros for good meal for 4 with wine and drinks. A car is a must , shopping at the larger supermarkets prove very cost effective . We will be going back again to this area and hope to stay here
