Fantastic location few mins walk to shop and bars. 15 min walk to town and beach. Great layout in the villa and the outside too, all flows really well. The villa was one of the cleanest I have been in. Nice touch with shower gels and shampoos. Hairdryer, iron and both bathroom and beach towels all working and available. Pool great, outdoor seating great, bbq great. Check in easy and host very communicative. Will be back.

The villa was very clean and nice to stay in. However, there is a building site directly opposite and while laying by the pool you hear all building noises and have a view of cranes. The road directly outside the villa can also be noisy. If you are hoping for peace and quiet while sitting by pool please take ear plugs. We were not told about the building works and although you get used to the noise, it was a big shock.

Our week in this property was the highlight of our 3 weeks trip in Portugal and Spain. The house is absolutely beautiful and the host was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. Everything surpassed our expectations. We will most definitely book with them again in the future and recommend to friends.
