Amazing property. SUPER QUIET AND PEACEFUL. Staff very friendly and helpful. The apartment I had had three outdoor areas so you had all day sunshine. Spa and pool area is lovely though I didn't know how to get the steam room to work. 5 min walk to the beach, 15 min walk to the shop. The apartment came with a shopping trolley which was super handy for doing all my grocery shopping. Would go back here any time.

We were over the moon with the facility. The concierges were so helpful with dining and shopping suggestions. The food at the restaurant may be the best we have had in years!! The room was perfect with a washing machine we didn't even use, but would have if needed. The beach is a short distance away and it's incredible! There are actually two separate areas with a tunnel in between....so fun, so beautiful and amazing. The pool and jacuzzi at the facility were amazing. I really should call it a resort! We would gladly stay there again in a heartbeat!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at White Shell Beach Villas. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming throughout, responding promptly to any queries we had and being very accommodating to all our needs. The resort was extremely family friendly, and we were provided with a high chair for meals and a travel cot for our young daughter. The facilities and service were excellent, with a spacious villa which was consistently cleaned to a high standard. The pool facilities were also impressive, providing a relaxing, ambient environment. We would highly recommend White Shell Beach Villas to anyone visiting the Algarve, and we hope to visit again in future!

When we arrived in the Algarve we were ready to relax and this was the perfect way to end our Portugal vacation. Our suite backed onto the pool area which we enjoyed immensely. It was convenient to have the pool bar available as well. The suite was like a huge apartment that felt very fancy with so much space and many amenities. Amazing restaurants and the coast was a quick walk away. The Bengal caves were a short drive away which we visited. I would recommend this resort in a minute.
