Amazing Villa for Large Groups
Our stay at Villa Buddha was incredible. The villa is spacious, beautifully decorated, and perfect for our large group. The pool and outdoor lounge areas were fantastic, and the games room kept everyone entertained. The location near the center of Albufeira was very convenient.
We were a group of 17 staying for 7 nights, 10 adults and 7 children aged 3 months to 13 years. It was very spacious for us and everything was perfect. The garden and pool area were great. The location is very good and a short walk to a good grocery store and also a short walk to The Strip where there are lots of restaurants. Quiet and safe neighborhood. All communication was very good and when we contacted them about the dishwasher not working, a new one was brought in after 2 hours. Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would recommend Villa Buddha for groups.

Luxury and Smooth Service
We had an amazing holiday at this villa. The property itself was stunning, and the company’s attention to detail made everything effortless. We especially enjoyed the lounge areas and the pool for relaxation and socializing.
Our time at the villa was a perfect. The staff was friendly and made us feel at home. Loved that the restaurants and supermarkets were just a short walk away from the villa. Made things so easy and stress-free. Being able to grab a bite or pick up essentials without any hassle was a big plus. It really added to the overall comfort of our stay. Great location! If you're heading to Albufeira, this place is a solid choice. Looking forward to coming back!

Incredible villa
This villa was incredible- went as a group of friends and had everything we needed- lots of seating areas and plenty of space for all 22 of us. Great communication from the company. Good location, only 5 min walk from the intermarche, a short walk to the strip and easy to get a bolt to the beach or old town. We were very impressed with the facilities- the games room and ice machine in particular! Would highly recommend.
Nothing- very good stay
What a magnificent stay at this Villa in Albufeira! We were amazed by the spacious and well-equipped house, perfect for our family of 18 people. The 6 bedrooms provided comfort to everyone.
The location of this Villa is great, being close to all amenities and attractions. The proximity to everything made our days even more convenient and full of fun.
The house itself is a true retreat, with expansive spaces and a welcoming atmosphere.
We highly recommend this Villa for large groups looking for an unforgettable experience in Albufeira. We can't wait to come back!

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Nice large Vila with ample sized rooms. Good location and facilitiesOnly negatives were the inflexibility of the hosts to allow any deviation on check in and check out time. They were very abrupt and not helpful.The property manager never turned up to greet us and therefore we had to work things out for ourselves.The property was nice but completely bare of the basics, washing up products, salt, pepper, cleaning products. We had to go and buy all this on day one, with no guidance from the property manager.I think for the price, leaving a few basics for guests to use is not unreasonable. Final thing was one of the bedrooms had 6 sets of children’s bunk beds in it, despite the fact we had two adults in that room.
Good villa for a family holiday with a few improvements neededWe stayed here as a family of 14, ranging in age from 4 to 60, and overall had a really lovely holiday. The villa is spacious, well laid out and offers plenty of different bedroom combinations, which worked perfectly for a large group like ours. The pool area was great, with lots of space for sunbathing and relaxing.The location was also very convenient: about a 20–25 minute walk to a lovely beach, 10–15 minutes to the main strip with bars and restaurants, and only a 5-minute Uber ride to the old town. Ubers were cheap, quick and reliable, and the nearest supermarket was only a short walk away.There were, however, a few things that could be improved. For a villa that sleeps up to 22, there definitely wasn’t enough crockery, glasses, plates or cooking equipment, which made mealtimes a bit challenging. There also weren’t enough sunbeds for our group of 14, and the BBQ was very small, to the point we didnt use it. Although the villa technically accommodates 22 people, I feel it would be too cramped for that number.We priced Algarve Vaccation to take us to rhe waterpark but they were double the price of buying tickets online ourselves and booking an Uber to take us there so beware of that. Overall, we had a good stay, but a few upgrades would make it even better for large groups.
