Communication with Isobel was excellent . Any problems answered very quickly. Great location. Just a few things to make it perfect would be outside furniture not overly comfortable, pool needs re tiling as a couple of sharp tiles. Table tennis table in poor condition and probably needs replacing. ##### Mrs Sarah Walkom Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jane C. Sep 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent holiday We had a great stay at Janelo do Mar. The villa is in a great location near restaurants and a short drive to beautiful beaches. We had a few issues which Isabel did her best to sort out. One point I would raise is the lack of lighting by the BBQ area. We were only a family of 4 so could eat during the evening at the small table outside the villa overlooking the pool but we couldn’t see to BBQ! The bathrooms are modern and towels and toilet roll are supplied which is a nice touch. Also some basics in the kitchen too which was brilliant ##### Jane C.

Aug 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Superb property & quite location Isabel was a great communicator from the start and very responsive and helpful. The villa is generally is very spacious and presented impeccable clean thanks the the effort of Christina (the house keeper) who also visits mid week during the stay. The kitchen is very well equipped with decent appliances and the small kitchen equipment, outside there’s a big gas BBQ (supplied with gas). The large pool was great, especially on the hotter days, along with options of seating/sun beds and parasols for additional shade. Intermarché supermarket is 5 minutes away by car and has all your needs covered. A couple of local family run restaurant’s which are a 10 minute walk down the road and well worth a visit, Rocha Mar Restaurante and Jardim do Farol. Carvoeiro is an easy drive and a nice little place, not too commercialised yet but does get busy later in the day. All in all a great property and location of a quite family holiday. ##### Mark L.

Jul 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great stay Isabel was great from the very start. Very quick responses and really helpful. There were a couple of little issues during our stay-nothing serious but Isabel got them sorted very quickly. The villa has lots of space and the kitchen is well equipped. We loved the pool and the sun beds are great. 2 new parasols and a sunshade over the dining table provide shade if that’s what you want. Directions say that the Lighthouse bar is 10 mins away but there is a little back way in which means you are there in 3 minutes! It’s a lovely place and we very happily went there several times for aperitifs or dinner. Not the cheapest but a lovely terrace and good food. Staff are very friendly too. Carvoeiro is an easy drive and a nice little place. Less spoiled than some of the other towns. All in all, to be recommended. ##### Hilary P.

L’annonce indiquait une mise à disposition à 14h. A notre arrivée à 15h, quelle déception ! Les draps usagés des anciens occupants étaient encore dans les lits, des sacs poubelles remplis de déchets se trouvaient dans la cuisine et les salles de bains. Les sols intérieur et extérieur et les poignées de portes étaient tellement collants que nous n’osions les toucher. Bref, le logement est resté dans l’état dans lequel les anciens locataires l’ont laissé . 2 heures après notre appel à la propriétaire une équipe de 3 personnes se présente pour la nettoyer. Ce n’est qu’à 19h30 que nous pouvons enfin disposer de la maison, toutefois vu l’état de celle-ci ils n’ont pas pu faire de miracle, notre première journée est gâchée. De nouveau quelle déception! Le canapé est rempli de tâches cachées par des couvertures, la console de jeux annoncée est manquante toute comme le lecteur dvd et la cd-thèque, 6 transats en piteux état sont présents or la villa est annoncée pour 8 personnes, la machine à café fuit, la table de Ping-pong est inutilisable au regard de son état de délabrement total, la balançoire est pleine de déjections d’oiseaux (les enfants ne peuvent s’en servir), aucun parasol, la table extérieure est très usagée et bancale. Le nombre de serviettes de toilettes est très limité et leur qualité est médiocre, une ampoule sur deux ne fonctionne pas et cela dans chaque pièce, nous avons même dû vider le lave-vaisselle encore plein des précédents occupants, l’épuisette de la piscine déjà bien usée à été rafistolée avec de la ficelle mais reste inutilisable, certaines poignées de porte sont cassées, l’étendoir à linge est de taille ridicule pour 8 personnes. Nous passons sur la présence de nombreuses fourmis à l’intérieur de la maison. Les photos du site montrent pourtant un logement impeccable. Beaucoup d’équipements de la maison annoncés sont inutilisables voire manquants. Le comportement de la propriétaire est très décevant, nous ne l’avons eue qu’une seule fois au téléphone, le seul contact que nous avons eu ensuite c’est avec son répondeur. Nous l’avons rappelée et lui avons envoyé des mails pour lui faire part de la situation. Elle ne nous a jamais contactés, ce qui est inacceptable. Pour conclure, ce n’est qu’après notre départ (10 jours après) qu’elle nous envoie enfin un mail pour nous indiquer qu’elle retient la caution pour des dommages que aurions causé !! Un conseil fuyez… ##### David F. Stayed 10 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard E. Jun 2, 2019 #### Fantastic villa The villa is fantastic. Very spacious inside and out with a big pool. Has everything you need for a great holiday. Isabel let us check in early as our flight arrives in the morning so the kids were in the pool by lunchtime! Great communication with the owner and the villa is well equipped with a decent gas BBQ and modern kitchen. The views from the top balcony of the sea are great. There are a few good restaurants in walking distance and 3 supermarkets within 5 mins drive. You could walk to the nearest beach in about 20 mins. ##### Richard E. Stayed 7 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hannah M. Aug 22, 2018 #### Beautiful villa with lovely views The villa was really lovely. Views from the master bedroom and balcony especially were fantastic. We all used the pool every day and the air conditioning and Sonos sound system were nice touches. The villa was so comfortable we didn't feel we needed to venture too far except to walk to the nearby beaches a couple of times, plus a trip to the Slide and Splash park for the children. I would also recommend a boat trip to see the caves around the coastline. All in all a great place to spend a relaxing holiday. ##### Hannah M.

The furnishings are clean, basic and suitable for a relaxing stay. Large supermarkets are a 5 minute drive away and a car is recommended. A hoppa bus is available into Carveoira from the bottom of the road running every half hour. Lots of restaurants found in town. 20 minute walk to nearest beach. ##### Lynne McHale Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christophe F., Paris Aug 29, 2016 #### Séjour très réussi.

Merci ! ##### Christophe F. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pine Cliffs Hotel, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Pine-Cliffs-Hotel.h4071.Hotel-Information) > > [Lagos Avenida Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Lagos-Avenida-Hotel.h19333855.Hotel-Information) > > [NAU Salema Beach Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Vila-Do-Bispo-Hotels-Salema-Beach-Village.h15175162.Hotel-Information) > > [Velamar Boutique Hotel - Adults Friendly](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Velamar-Boutique-Hotel.h2928512.Hotel-Information) > > [Quinta Pedra dos Bicos](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Quinta-Pedra-Dos-Bicos.h1200216.Hotel-Information) > > [The Navigator - Solaqua](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Luna-Solaqua.h4461872.Hotel-Information) > > [Rocha Brava Village Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Rocha-Brava-Village-Resort.h1111695.Hotel-Information) > > [Cascade Wellness Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Cascade-Wellness-Resort.h4018224.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Lagos.h2543952.Hotel-Information) > > [Marina Club Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Marina-Club-Suite-Hotel.h1489839.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Blue Ocean](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Blue-Ocean.h14861176.Hotel-Information) > > [Jupiter Algarve Hotel - Beach & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Jupiter-Algarve-Hotel.h1133428.Hotel-Information) > > [Muthu Clube Praia da Oura](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Muthu-Clube-Praia-Da-Oura.h1182280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Algarve Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Hotel-Algarve-Casino.h6468.Hotel-Information) > > [Monte Santo Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Monte-Santo-Resort.h2135874.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Apartamento Brisa Sol](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Hotel-Apartamento-Brisa-Sol.h2335413.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Alvor Algarve Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Alvor-Algarve-Resort.h33811605.Hotel-Information) > > [Martinhal Sagres Beach Family Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sagres-Hotels-Martinhal-Sagres-Beach-Family-Resort.h3091253.Hotel-Information) > > [Dom Pedro Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Dom-Pedro-Lagos.h1382394.Hotel-Information) > > [EPIC SANA Algarve Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-EPIC-SANA-Algarve-Hotel.h5995034.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Carvoeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Tivoli-Carvoeiro.h891221.Hotel-Information) > > [AP Oriental Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-AP-Oriental-Beach.h912470.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Marina Portimao Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Portimao.h976931.Hotel-Information) > > [W Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-W-Algarve.h73757170.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Cerro Alagoa Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Cerro-Alagoa-Hotel.h891218.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Tivoli-Lagos.h876691.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Petra](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Vila-Petra.h1100476.Hotel-Information) > > [VidaMar Resort Hotel Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-VidaMar-Resort-Hotel-Algarve.h5670748.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Palm Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Pestana-Palm-Gardens.h891487.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Atlântico Algarve by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Kimpton-Atlantico-Algarve.h3036868.Hotel-Information)
