I recently had the pleasure of staying at a stunning luxury villa in the Algarve, Casa Mandovi and it completely exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the spacious layout and elegant design. Every detail felt thoughtfully planned, creating both comfort and a sense of luxury.The outdoor lounging areas were a highlight—plenty of space to relax, soak up the sun, and take in the beautiful landscape surroundings. The pool was pristine and perfectly sized for both swimming and lazy afternoons floating under the sun. Inside, the villa offered ample room for everyone, yet still felt warm and inviting.This villa truly made my trip unforgettable. If you’re looking for the perfect mix of relaxation, luxury, and space in the Algarve, I can’t recommend this property enough.

It is a beautiful villa with a wonderful outdoor area. We spent many evenings of our 2 weeks on the back veranda having dinner and enjoying the outdoors. We took advantage of the fig tree on the property as well as the lime tree. The location was perfect - close to local supermarkets and roadways for our daily outings to the many towns and beaches in the area. The five separate bedrooms along with their respective on suites were perfect for our large group/family. Maddy and Richard answered all of our needs during our stay. Thanks to both of you for making this family trip a memorable vacation.

The most perfect week with the family - ages ranging from 7-76. Whole house and garden were spotless. Would 100% recommend. Didn’t want to leave!

This was our second stay, having first visited in summer 2021. Everything was again lovely and we found the owners very good to deal with. We hope to return.
