I booked Villa Rafãella due to its affordability and location. I stayed for 3 weeks, 2 solo and then was joined by my daughter and 2 grandchildren.Nuno was first class as a host- clear instructions to check in and always available if any issue arose. Someone had swapped the sun lingers and Nuno came within an hour with new ones.The villa is spotless, decorated really well and The bed is the most comfortable bed I have slept in abroad!There are some updates required within the complex- swimming pool could be maintained better but I was off exploring and I guess this is reflected in the price.I would highly recommend this villa to anyone who simply wants a base to explore the Algarve. Only 35 mins from the airport and an array of beautiful beaches and restaurants close by.Loved it so much I’m booking for next year!

Wonderful stay in the Algrave

We had a wonderful two week stay. Our villa was very comfortable and in a great location. Check in was very easy and communication with our host Nuno was always prompt. The villa was clean when we arrived and a cleaning service was provided half way through our stay including fresh linens and towels. Would definitely stay here again.

Bel emplacement. Calme , près des plages et du centre ville. Cet appartement nécessite une attention particulière pour la propreté, tête de lit tachée, plancher salle ( j’ai passé la moppe mais avant j’ai du la rincer abondamment car elle était salle aussi) drain de douche bouché même après une demande. Aucun support pour les serviettes et aucune tablette dans la douche. Ne mérite pas le nom de Luxury Town house. Pour nous c’est un 2.5 étoiles max!
