Villa "SOL" W/Shared Pool,Beautiful Spacious Gardens & Sea Views, Secure Complex

Absolutely incredible property! The photos DO NOT do it justice!.. Its huge, and modern, with everything you need. There are glass Banister on staircase. A beautiful atrium with cherry blossom tree within the house. My only one content is the beds are really hard. That is only issue. Other than that it was best place we've ever stayed at.

We are just back from our weeklong stay at Villa Sol in Albufeira. The villa is perfect for a family. It’s big and bright with a large garden and a balcony from the main bedroom. It is very well equipped, so you can feel at home: plenty of cooking utensils, plates and cups, a variety of kitchen equipment, as well as everything you might need for washing, ironing, hair drying, and overall comfort. As it was very hot in Algarve during our stay, we really appreciated the air conditioning in both bedrooms and overall coolness of the house. The villa is about 12 mins on foot from a beautiful beach, and a few minutes from the Strip, which offers plenty of places to eat or have a drink. The old town and the marina are a bit further away, so a car is helpful. We also enjoyed the beautiful shared pool and a calm neighbourhood of the condominium. Communication with the host was great too, though we did get a bit confused about the locations of the keys. But maybe that’s because we arrived late and were a bit tired. Overall, it’s a great spot for a lazy or active break and for exploring Algarve. Thank you!

We had a wonderful holiday in Albufeira, our first time here for 31 years. We weren't so lucky with the weather but the villa was so cosy and well equipped we were able to pass the stormy spells in comfort and style. The villa has everything you could need, (it's massive!) and it's a great location, central to most things, not far to go to get to old town or the strip, and plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby (taxis are reasonable and its close to a tourist train stop and bus stop). It's within a quiet gated community, the pool and garden are beautiful too. Branca gave us the warmest welcome, showed us how things worked and pointed out a few things on the map for us (including the best coffee/cake shop- Pastelaria Riviera Inn). It was really clean throughout. Excellent communication with the friendly owners throughout our stay, they were quick to get back to us with any queries. We do like to cook and found some of the utensils a little blunt/tricky to use (scissors, fiddly grater and peeler), but this is minor. The master bed is also a little hard but thats down to personal taste. I still slept well. The villa is so spacious, comfortable sofas, sun loungers, the garden is a little sun trap and plenty of privacy, the bedroom had a balcony, and big tables to dine inside and out. It was much fancier than expected and so reasonably priced. We loved it and would definitely recommend it! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Manuela easy to get hold of but a few details on the villa could have been better. Alarm codes and switch off details as well as restarting the trip system for electricity. Villa was in a great location but would have benefited from a deep clean. Barbeque was full of ash and grills and utensils dirty. Kitchen cupboards and draws were dirty. Surfaces bedrooms and bathrooms clean and tidy.
