Definitely the most relaxing holiday we've had for a long while, the villa was just amazing!
It was very clean and spacious and had everything we could possibly need right down to games for the children (and us) to play,
there was even a pushchair for our 2 year old to use.
It was lovely to sit in the beautiful garden or on the furnished roof terrace just watching the world go by.
The owners are very nice and helped with everything including airport transfers.
The complex is great for families and the shop was excellent.
It was the first time we had stayed in a private villa but it definitely won't be the last and we can't recommend this villa highly enough!!

The villa was simply terrific, very spacious, comfortable, clean and very well appointed.
Both of the bedrooms and the lounge had patio doors with access to the gardens which were attractive and very well maintained.
On the flat roof were loungers, table and chairs and a brick built barbeque which we made good use of and
at ground level were also other soft chairs and another table and chairs.
We were very pleased indeed with the service we received from the Owners who also organised transport from the Airport.
The facilities with the Complex were also very good with a small shop, swimming pools,
restaurants and bars available but when were there in early April it was relatively quiet which suited us perfectly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this villa. It was simply terrific.

What hasn't already been said about how amazing this place is?
We had a fabulous time. The Villa was clean, modern and just what we wanted.
Complex was perfect with a great choice of swimming pools and places to eat.
One of the best hols I've been on and would recommend both the Villa and complex to our friends. Can't wait to go back!!
O almost forgot the BBQ on the Balcony. Top notch, what better way to spend your evenings in the sun...

We spent a wonderfully sunny week at this villa.
It was very clean and very well equipped.
The landscaping was absolutely beautiful and well-maintained.
We spent a lot of time relaxing on the veranda.
The villa was a good size for our family of 4.
There are 4 resort swimming pools all within walking distance.
There is also a bus stop within walking distance where you can catch a ride to downtown Albufeira and the beach.
We had a wonderful holiday here and would highly recommend it!

We loved this villa, we spent a lot of of time on the front veranda, it is perfect for breakfast and late drinks.
If it gets too hot, the tree in the back garden is lovely to sit under.
We used taxis to take us back and forth to Albufeira at 5 euros each way.
Ask them to take you right up to the villa, as the last few yards are quite steep.

We spent a week a Villa Alfarroba in December, we had a excellent week and thoroughly enjoyed relaxing around the villa.
The Villa itself is in lovely condition and had just had a new kitchen fitted the week before our stay, very nice granite worktops!
The site is great and has all the facilities you could need: pools, restaurants and more.
(I would love to visit in the summer however the weather was surprisingly good for December).
Sitting on the veranda and having breakfast was a joy.
The location is great, accessible for the new and old town yet far enough out to be extremely quiet and relaxing.

Comments : Very relaxing
2 wonderfully relaxing weeks spent in the warm Algarve sun in the perfect setting.
The villa has all home comforts and is close to all the great facilities within Club Albufeira.
There are 4 swimming pools close by all with sun beds etc. Good pool bars with typical pool-side meals available.
On site there are 2 restaurants providing great food and excellent service. A very friendly resort.
This was our first visit to Club Albufeira and it will not be our last.

Comments : Albufeira Villa Experience!
We stayed 15-29th July 2008.
Right from the booking we received excellent customer service from the owners who took
great care and attention to make sure that our holiday was most enjoyable.
We had contact telephone numbers in case we needed anything and the villa was well cared for and well maintained.
The space was great and the gardens were a delight.
If only we could spend everyday on the veranda watching the world go by! Thanks to the owners for all their attention to detail.

Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed out holiday staying in your beautiful villa,
it's a real home from home and made our whole holiday.
It was so nice just to be able to relax but for the children still to be kept amused.
I've got another restaurant for your recommended list, it's called TASCA D' ALKHAZ, (just behind the square).
They do the most wonderful steak on the stone and at very reasonable prices (15 euros).
They have a good choice on the menu to cover most tastes and the staff are very, very friendly.
We went 4 nights out of the 10, definitely worth recommending!
Thank you again
Best regards

I had meant to drop you an e-mail before now just to say that we had a fantastic holiday and absolutely loved the villa.
A real home from home and great location from which to do all we wanted to do - Slide and Splash, Zoo Marine, Algarve shopping centre etc etc.
The weather was also very good with only one day of rain in the fortnight which is very lucky for this time of year.
If we are back in the area in the future I would have no hesitation in booking Villa Alfarroba again
and we will certainly recommend it to friends if they are looking for a villa in the area.
Thanks again from all of us.
Best Regards

We have just returned from a lovely holiday in your villa, thank you so much for letting us use it.
We felt so comfortable there that we spent most of the week on site, and the weather was perfect - not too hot!
We really appreciated being picked up and dropped off at the airport by Duncan, and to know that he and Mel were close by
if there was a problem (especially when the alarm went off and we couldn't work out how to stop it!)
Thank you for leaving some food in the fridge for us, it made all the difference to our first night.
We would definitely recommend your villa to all our friends and family and hope that we will return in the future.
