Albufeira (from the Arabic al-buhayra, the small sea) was a small fishing port west of Faro in southern Portugal. Today, this city lives tourism during the summer period. It's a little bit like the St Tropez of Portugal where actors and stars of the round ball go. From now on, the fishermen's beach has become a marbled car park where winter vehicles mix with podiums for summer concerts. The fishermen meanwhile 'drop anchor' in the new marina a few kilometers from the city center towards Guia. Many Portuguese celebrities will spend their holidays in Albufeira which is undoubtedly the most popular tourist center of the Algarve.

Well located house just minutes from the most beautiful beaches.
Recreation: Sea sports, water parks, golf courses, shops, bars, restaurants, entertainment and nightlife. If you do not have a car, the city has a city bus type train. Bus transportation is good, and you have plenty of organized excursions if you want to see the beautiful Algarve coastal area, beaches and cultural cities.

If you want to discover a little more Portugal, we recommend you to rent a car.
This very typical city in the center of the Algarve, to spend holidays and enjoy the huge activities and attractions, not forgetting the good dishes of Portuguese cuisine at prices still very correct.

Definitely a home in paradise

Celine was a great host, gave us useful information on our arrival, always there to help if you needed it. So peaceful and the pool was amazing especially as it was so hot. It was enjoyed by all the family a good way to cool off. Make sure you take mosquito spray as there was so many about in May. We got bitten quite a bit. So we couldn’t leave the doors and windows open. The only air con was in the main bedroom so the other bedroom and the house got very hot in the day and night. Other than that we did have a wonderful stay and will definitely return in the future.

We stayed for a few days in the middle of our vacation to relax and Celine's home was perfect! The pictures of her home in VRBO are beautiful and aren't smoke and mirrors. What the pictures didn't show is the tranquility and the smells of the floral trees and overall peace and quiet. I would come back again and again. Celine was an amazing host and gave amazing recommendations! Thank you, Celine. It was just what we needed. ❤️ is

Lovely villa

We was very happy with this villa The place was nice & clean. The pool was fabulous. The beds were really comfortable. The location is nice & quiet and very private & secure. Only 20 mins on foot downhill to the centre of Albufiera and we found a taxi averaged around 5 euros back. Celine was lovely and very helpful. I would certainly recomend this villa. Just a couple of points.......Maybe some plastic cups & plates would be good for the pool area and as much as the bottle of wine, water, biscuits & oranges were greatly appreciated on our arrival.......we arrived late in the evening and really wanted a brew but only one coffee pod was there so we shared a coffee the following morning before we did our shopping. Maybe for late arrivals it would be nice to have some coffee & milk left as there is no close by shop to get any. But as mentioned this villa is great and highly recommended. Thank you Celine, we would love to come back ;-)

Lovely location, needs improvement

We had a good time, lovely location, very quiet. However, the property and the support needs improving: - we were asked for a deposit in cash on arrival which I couldn't find anywhere mentioned on the ad. From that, a part would be for cleaning if I "didn't have the time to clean". When I asked further, I was told the house was clean and should be left the same way, dishes shouldn't have food leftovers. I understand the deposit because they don't know us but having to pay extra for cleaning is not something done in Portugal at all. Thankfully I'm from the area originally and was given my whole deposit back. - the bathroom smells constantly. Specially after having a shower. Not nice. - when we arrived, the hosts were nice but the focus on cleaning and showing where to find the cleaning appliances wasn't. I'm sorry, I'm in holidays, I'm not going to vaccum. I just tidied it up a little as I like things clean anyway but just used the broom. - shower head and holder needs replacing. A cheap replacement would make it a lot better a look nicer. - we stayed for 2 weeks and had no bedding or towels change. Yes, I could have asked but should be already part of the service as standard. At least, a change after 1 week, minimum. - the beds were very uncomfortable. We were using the bed in the main bedroom and my stepdaughter was in the other one. We had to swap beds but still not great. Backache, waking up every time we turned. All in all it was a quiet holiday but we couldn't wait to get back to our beds at home.

Wonderful Villa

Just returned from a 12 night stay at the villa, with my wife our 11month son and nother in law. We had the best time and as the other review ls mention, the photos don't do the villa justice. We arrived late and left early, due to flight times, so the lock box Monica and her husband installed was perfect. The villa and grounds are excellent and the pool is a good size. We felt to welcome from first entering the villa, with wine and fruit provided. The location is perfect. We didn't hire a car and didn't miss out, it's a 30 minute walk to the old town / beach. It is close to Ferreiras where we went to a lot too, which is quieter with nice restaurants (particaulry Boemia da Vila), and also cheap! We used uber taxis when required, which was seamless. I'd recommend the villa to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday, jn a great location with their own private pool.

Nous avons consulté les avis précédents; nous les approuvons et les confirmons tous, et nous insistons sur la gentillesse et la bienveillance de Monique et Marcelino.

Die Gastgeberin hat uns herzlich empfangen und mit wertvollen Ausflugs- und Restauranttipps versorgt. Das kleine Haus mit der wunderschönen Grünanlage hat alles, was man für einen entspannten Urlaub zu zweit benötigt. Auch ein Grill war vorhanden. Diesen haben wir jedoch nicht genutzt. Ganz anders als den Pool, den haben wir ausgiebig genutzt.Alles in Allem sehr empfehlenswert.
