Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Vitor and his sister are lovely people and make you feel very welcome , the villa is fantastic and the pool amazing, very big and refreshing. There is a large Intermarche behind the villa but you wouldn’t know and does not spoil the experience at all.I do feel however that the villa information is somewhat misleading with regards to the air conditioning, this is only in the top bedroom and the living room in the villa , the two bedrooms downstairs DO NOT have air conditioning and were ridiculously hot , this is not mentioned in the villa information as I wouldn’t have booked a property in July without air conditioning, to add to this all the beds in the property were extremely hard and uncomfortable - this is not just a moan , they really are the most uncomfortable beds we have ever stayed in.We had the villa for 2 weeks and within that time the villa was cleaned once which took a couple of hours so we stayed outside , the reason is takes so long odd it was 1 lady and Vitor , this is a large villa to clean , the beds were changed on this day and the towels also - I feel when 5 of us in the villa the beds and towels should be changed more than once in a 2 week stay , I have stayed in other similar villas where the cleaners are in every few days , new sheets and towel changes provided. The property is splendid but has lots of steps and is definitely not suitable for people with mobility issues.We didn’t hire a car but Ubers very easy to get to Carvoeiro ##### Wendy H.

La casa está muy cuidada y la limpieza es absoluta. Tiene todo lo necesario para disfrutar de unas magníficas vacaciones. La piscina de agua salada es estupenda, le da el sol todo el día y se está de lujo. El alojamiento se encuentra a 50 metros de un supermercado donde puedes encontrar todo lo que necesitas y a 5 min de Carvoeiro, pueblo muy bonito, con mucho ambiente y donde puedes encontrar magníficos restaurantes y bares. Con coche se llega en muy poco tiempo a todas las playas de alrededor, que merecen mucho la pena, así como la visita a las cuevas, al algar seco y a otros pequeños pueblos que se encuentran alrededor de Carvoeiro. Por último, agradecer a Victor su amabilidad, ha sido un fantástico anfitrión. !Ójala podamos volver pronto! ##### Eva S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacqueline H.

Fully equipped with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. Situated very close to a supermarket but far enough away for it not to affect your stay. Both my children (11 & 23) found plenty to occupy them from the swimming pool to the loungers. Very quiet location and set back from the main road. The owner Vitor was lovely, very polite and friendly .. Looking forward to booking again next year. ##### Jacqueline H. Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David J.

The villa is really well equipped, so that we wanted for nothing. The location of Villa Mafalda is great: short ways to Carvoeiro and to various other beaches. The Supermarket next-door is really great. There you can buy nearly everything but you do not take any notice when you are staying at Villa Mafalda. The support and especially the location plan to Villa Mafalda were perfect. In peace of conscience we can recommend Vitor and the villa and would like to come back again. Dear Vitor, again we want thank you very much for the beautiful holidays and many thanks for the inflatable objects for the pool. The kids have been very pleased about that.

Oct 13, 2017 #### Mooie, ruime en schone villa Heerlijke vakantie gehad in deze villa. Goede locatie, centraal gelegen in het gebied Lagoa/Carvoeiro/Silves (alles binnen een 20 minuten rijden) De eerste keer even opletten, je rijdt zo de onverharde weg voorbij die tussen 2 huizen in ligt. Handig dat de supermarkt ongeveer in de achtertuin staat (waar je overigens geen overlast van hebt, evenals de doorgaande weg). Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en typisch Portugees ingericht, met 3 ruime slaapkamers, 2 badkamers (1 met bad) en een heerlijk groot zwembad. In de 2 weken dat wij er waren werd er 2x schoongemaakt, schone handdoeken lagen gewoon voor de pak. Erg aardige eigenaar die helaas niet zo goed Engels sprak, maar wij dan ook weer niet zo goed Portugees. Klein minpuntje: de tuinstoelen zitten niet echt prettig voor lange mensen. ##### Nancy v.

Beautiful villa and surrounding garden, the whole place was spotlessly clean and looks even better in real life than the pictures. Excellent pool area, the villa is very spacious and has everything you could possibly need, including wifi which was an added bonus having a 15yr old, there is a washing machine, dish washer, extra bedding, plenty of towels which were changed half way through our stay as well as having a deep clean too. It is very close to town (walking distance), a supermarket on your doorstep (which is not noticeable when in the villa grounds) and the owner Vitor was so lovely too. We have been to Portugal many times and paid double in price but this villa was by far the best for us. We literally can not give 1 fault in the place. Absolutely perfect for either couples or families. Will be booking next year too, 100% recommend to anyone ##### Mark S. ## 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) > > [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) > > [Rocha Brava Village Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Rocha-Brava-Village-Resort.h1111695.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Atlântico Algarve by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Kimpton-Atlantico-Algarve.h3036868.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Lagos Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Lagos.h2543952.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) > > [Algar Seco Parque](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Algar-Seco-Parque.h20461863.Hotel-Information) > > [Cascade Wellness Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Cascade-Wellness-Resort.h4018224.Hotel-Information) > > [W Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-W-Algarve.h73757170.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Cerro Alagoa Resort 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) > > [Monte Santo Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Monte-Santo-Resort.h2135874.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) > > [Castelo Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Castelo-Guest-House.h20244637.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Marina Portimao Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Portimao.h976931.Hotel-Information)
