Traditional villa with BBQ and heatable pool

Villa La Romana is a charming property in traditional Algarve style, perfect for a peaceful family holiday, located in Sesmarias, in the Galé area, just a few minutes' walk from the beach.

On the first floor, the villa has two bedrooms, one with a double bed and another with two single beds, as well as a support bathroom.



The kitchen is fully equipped and offers all the conditions to prepare meals with complete comfort, in a functional and well-organised space.



The outdoor area features a well-maintained garden, a private heated swimming pool (additional cost) and a ping pong table for leisure moments with family or friends.

Outstanding property and service!

The property was everything promised! As an unexpected bonus, when we arrived the property was stocked with essentials (sugar, coffee, bread, condiments, soft drinks) and even a bottle of red wine and a large bottle of Sagres. The next morning a representative met with us (Gabriella/Gabby) who was PHENOMENAL. Cheerful, helpful and very accomodating, Gabby was in contact with us throughout the week and even arranged a wonderful tour for us. We couldn't have asked for more from this experience.

Algarve vacation

We had some difficulty finding the property as the name on the property is not Villa Romana. Overall we liked the villa size, location and cleanliness. We found the beds to be very uncomfortable. We paid to have the pool heated but about half way through our stay the temperature of the water became colder even though the manager said the heat was on. We were only supplied one bath towel each, no extra towels for the pool. Be prepared to supply your own garbage bags and dishcloths.

Das Haus ist leider ganz schön in die Jahre gekommen.. es fehlen im Bad und im Flur Möglichkeiten Sachen aufzuhängen bzw abzulegen, die Bereitstellung von Handtüchern war dürftig; erst nach dringlicher Anfrage haben wir nach 5 Tagen diese gewechselt bekommen Insgesamt fanden wir das Hsus etwas zu teuer für das was es geboten hat, den Grill wollten wir lieber nicht benutzen Beim nächsten Mal werden wir uns ein anderes Haus suchen
