Portugal vacation

Although the payment process was choppy and not well organized, the property was perfect. The property is very roomy and comfortable. The kitchen well stocked. My children and grandchildren came for a family BBQ and we had enough dishes and utensils to serve everyone. The swimming pool is large and very well filtered. Once you pass the original paperwork step, the experience is one of pure delight.

Hervorragend

Das Haus ist sehr geräumig. Alle Schlafzimmer mit Klimaanlage und angrenzendem Bad. Erfreulicherweise wurden in 2 Badezimmern die Badewannen durch begehbare Duschen ausgetauscht. Der große Pool ist sensationell. Wir lieben diese Villa.

Ruheoase

Sehr ruhige Lage. Auto oder Taxi erforderlich. Großer Pool, schöne Außenanlage. Das Haus ist geräumig, jedes Schlafzimmer hat ein eigenes Badezimmer. Zusätzlich ist eine separate Toilette vorhanden. Insgesamt ein hoher Erholungswert, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Als Kritikpunkte sind zu erwähnen: Außendusche funktionierte mehrmals nicht, wurde auf Anfrage behoben. Die Außenbeleuchtung am Pool und am Eingang flackerte, behoben wurde nur die Beleuchtung am Pool. Schade fanden wir, dass wir mehrfach bis zu drei Mal an unsere Mängelanzeigen erinnern mussten, damit sich jemand kümmerte. Dadurch dauerte die Mängelbeseitigung immer relativ lange. Genereller Sanierungsrückstand: Lichtschalter teilweise defekt, mehrere schon länger bestehende Wasserschäden an den Wänden, teilweise große Setzrisse in den Wänden und Wandfliesen.

séjour septembre 2022

Maison très propre, belle piscine, très agréable d'avoir 3 salles de bain, linge très propre, lits très confortables. Arrivée pratique avec les clefs en boitier. Merci à Sandra pour son déplacement et sa sympathie. Réponse rapide en cas de petit soucis, robinet d'évier défectueux à l'extérieur changé le lendemain. Toutefois la gérance se passe en Angleterre et pour les personnes non bilingue c'est assez compliqué lors des premiers échanges par mail. Il faut également préciser que la maison est mitoyenne avec une autre location semblable, mais fin septembre ca n'était pas un problème. En résumé nous recommandons cette location.

TLC needed

This basic property is in need of updating and some maintenance too. The furnishings are mostly tired and dated. In particular, the pool furniture could be replaced. Overall, we genuinely believed that we overpaid for this villa. That said, we had a great time and enjoyed our stay.

Urlaub bei bis zu 29 Grad Ende Oktober. Viel zu unternehmen von dieser tollen Villa aus. Absolute Alleinlage und damit tolle Familienzeit. Pool etwas kühl, aber nicht für die Kids...Wir haben die Auszeit sehr genossen und kommen gerne wieder.

Villa Martinica

Fabulous Villa, very clean, beautiful location, peaceful and tranquil. Very comfortable beds. The sofas in the lounge area are a little worn however that didn’t affect the comfort. I would recommend this Villa for all the best reasons and it’s close to all amenities. If you want to go to the beach I would recommend a car, we hired a car from the airport to the Villa but if we wanted to go out and not worry about drinking and driving we hired an Uber they are cheaper than taxis.

Moradia Martinica

Se conseguir, voltarei garantidamente, É a melhor resposta. Mosqueteiros seria excelente. Será importante, porque a Moradia encontra-se no campo, a equipa de limpeza terá que ter mais atenção, com as marcas das Melgas mortas nas paredes.

We hielden van het huis en de locatie.

We voelden ons zeer welkom toen we aankwamen. De beheerder was erg aardig en behulpzaam. De locatie is dichtbij genoeg van lokale restaurants en bars. Het huis was erg schoon, beddengoed en handdoeken zijn aanwezig. Een goed verblijf. Zou niet aarzelen om opnieuw te boeken.

Lovely place

Highly recommend this Villa, no matter what your purpose of visit is. Andre the representative is very accomodating, friendly, easy to deal with. We loved the location, it is very quiet but close enough to Albufeira. Zero complaints or negatives to report. All beds ect are clean and comfortable... All this at a very reasonable price. Would definately come back.
