Two Private Pools & Waterfall in a Stunning Portuguese Villa

Villa Camaleao turned out to be an excellent place for our family group of 12 to spend a warm week in the Algarve ... loads of space, effective aircon, nice pool and Steve and Janie were friendly and welcoming hosts.

The villa was beautiful. The backyard was an oasis with the two pools and the couches. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The rooms were nice and the several bathrooms made it perfect for our large group. Steve and Janie were so welcoming and friendly. They gave us great suggestions and were responsive to everything--including the stray kitten we found wandering around. Highly recommend.

The Villa was perfect for our 40th Anniversary family celebration. All the facilities were top quality and excellent for all ages in our group, we couldn’t fault a thing. Steve and Janie were the best hosts, they recommended a local private chef who came to the villa to cook a meal, which was well worth it and they were ready and quick to help if we needed anything. We would definitely recommend as ideal for a family holiday and can’t wait to go back.

We have just arrived home having spent a very relaxing week away staying at this villa.Steve and Janie the owners were very friendly and approachable. They were very welcoming and greeted us like we were their friends. They were very helpful with what was in the area and places to eat and visit.The villa is very well designed with a beautifull round staircase leading from lower floor to first floor. We took some great photos of the family on the stairs. The master bedroom has it's own bathroom across from the room and a lounge area within the bedroom. All bedrooms had a lovely balcony with great views of the area. The villa is set in its own well kept gardens with lots of outside space. We spent most of the time in the outside areas when at the villa as the weather was hot and sunny, well into 30 deg. There was 11 people in our family ranging from 73yrs to 10 yrs and we all had a great time. The outside space catered for everyone's needs and we were able to sit outside to eat as a family around the large table just outside the kitchen. There is also a large BBQ near to the kitchen and eating area which we used one evening.The villa has everything you need for your stay, it is very clean and well thought out. Outside toilet and shower area near the pool, washing machine if you need one and a clothes airer.We hired cars so was able to see some of the surrounding areas, we visited the local beach which was very clean and you can hire 2 sun loungers and 1 umbrella for 12 euros for the day. There are many places to eat or shop at the beach. We ate a meal out at the beach one evening in the Clipper Restarant, if you want a special meal this is a very good restaurant. We were celebrating our sons birthday, the service and food were excellent.We all had a great holiday and would reccomend this villa for a pleasant relaxing stay in Portugal.Thank you very much to Steve and Janie for making our first visit to Portugal a very pleasant and memorable stay.Mark & Jayne Gearing.
