This property was a very pleasant surprise! The photos do not do it justice, it’s a lovely setting, with a beautiful garden. The jacuzzi, the barbecue and the table outside are perfect for these hot summer days and nights. We had all our meals outside! The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. The house is big enough for 4 adults, as it has a double bed in the bedroom and two sofa-beds in the living room.
The location is a in a quiet location but with everything walking distance, restaurants, shops, supermarket, beach, pharmacy, ATM, etc.
Mark replied promptly to our queries and was always available, everything went smoothly and we had the best time! Thanks, Mark, we will be back!

Charming, yes - but it needs attention.
The place is a little worn out. Basic maintenance has been neglected.
Both plastic lounge chairs have broken slats.
The 2 molded plastic chairs provided are both cracked.
The hot tub cover is worn and torn. (The hot tub worked fine after it was repaired.)
The tools for the outdoor grill are rusty. The hinges on the door shutter were broken, and the shutter fell off when we opened it.
Towels are thin, old and mismatched. My bath towel had a fist-sized hole in it.
The kitchen is missing basic utensils:
A spatula. A vegetable peeler. A grater. A paring knife. A dish drainer. A salad bowl. A serving spoon. Replace the broken plastic colander. The 2 pans provided are camping pans. They're not meant for regular use. I would add a potholder or two. Possibly a large pot so you could cook pasta.
The bedroom: The mattress is really just a box springs, not a mattress. You can feel the metal springs on it. (I’m not big - 52 kg)
We live on a boat, and we can sleep on almost anything. But this one was pretty difficult.
We stayed here 3 weeks. We would have left early, but the owner was good about repairing the hot tub when we arrived, and his agent found us some firewood and tools for the fireplace. (We rented this place because of the hot tub and the fireplace.) We appreciated how quickly he responded, and we stayed.
This is the 12th place we’ve stayed in on this particular 5 month trip. We spend a lot of time in rented places, and I usually enjoy the quirkiness of different environments.
With a little effort, this could be a super place.
It’s cute, it's quaint. It has a lovely garden. It’s private. It’s near the train station, and it’s different from all the generic condos.
I'd love to see this place shine again.
As it is, I can't recommend it.

Nice little house but a bit dated
The property is nice but could do with updating both in furnishings and fittings WiFi in this day and age is a bit steep. The bed is rather uncomfortable but all linen was spotless and clean.
Update this property and it would be wonderful. Great location as long as you have a car of which we had as no restaurants close by and beach to far to walk in the heat.
Enjoyed our stay.

Lovely villa with private garden and wonderful hot tub
Villa about 10 mins walk to centre, close to little train station but nice and quiet location, small kitchen but with all essentials needed to cook or BBQ. 1 bedroom, plenty of space for 2 people, may be a bit small to sleep 4. Hot tub was always a lovely temperature and was welcomed at the end of a hot day. No English TV channels, which was fine for us, does have a cd/radio player so take your own favorite music. Villa nice and clean although basic, bed comfy with change of towels and bedding mid stay. The only thing missing for us as first timers in Portugal was a welcome pack with information regarding local area ect. All other rentals we’ve had over the years have had lots of good info, think this would be most welcome for future guests, but good old google got us by. WiFi has to be paid for on arrival at €30 euros a week. Trains can get you anywhere along the coast at little cost, some stations are a good walk from beaches but they only go once an hour or every 2 hours in the afternoons. The hairy lemon bar/restaurant has a lovely swimming pool for €6 euros a day and happy hour 4-7, great food too. Best way to explore this beautiful area of Portugal is car or scooter. Alcoutim was a beautiful village, hop on a little ferry across the river to Spain and zipwire back to Portugal, fab day out but difficult to get there on public transport. Overall a lovely villa and fell in love with eastern Algarve

Great little villa for a couple.
The property had everything you need for a week's break. The bedroom is a nice size with a big closet. The bathroom is a decent size. The house has an open plan kitchenette with small sitting area. The outside of the house has a decked area, BBQ and hot tub. You have the option of lazing in the sun or relaxing in the shade. Out at the front it has car parking space.
The house was very clean and they provided two sets of towels for a weeks stay.
It did not have a washing machine but opposite the Tavira Shopping centre there is a laundrette and there is another one in Tavira centre should you require.
The house is within walking distance to the train station. The train ride into Tavira is about 10 minutes if not less and trains run frequently. Although near the train station it was not noisy each time the train came through.
The house is also within walking distance to a small supermarket, restaurants and Cabanas city centre. There are lots of restaurants to choose from. We also found some tracks to have leisurely walks near to the house. I believe there is a shop in Cabanas which hires bicycles.
Mark kept in contact via WhatsApp and assisted us when needed, thank you.

Lovely place to stay
We really enjoyed staying here for a week and wished it was for longer.. the property was just the right size and perfect location, with a nice secluded garden and patio to chill out in the evening. The villa was clean and well equipped and we are hoping to book again in the future.

Great location and superb small villa
This is a perfectly charming small villa. Well laid out and the hot, cool tub is a Godsend when the evening temperatures were high. This secluded villa is set in beautiful and peaceful gardens and is ideal for couples. Perfectly located for a stroll to the local town and, not to be missed, a short walk through the golf club to Benamor for reasonably priced and good food one evening on the terrace, watching the last rounds played out. The golf club is also worth playing. Short enough to walk if temperatures are mild. Not to be missed however is playing Quinta da Cima and Quinta da Ria. Both exceptional. The town of Cabanas has enough going to fill an evening or so. A talented busker could turn a small dividend for the summer as there appears to be a lack of live music.
There are supermarkets and shops catering for essentials all close by and the train station is a short walk for accessing Tavira and beyond.

Relaxing, Lovely and full of charm.
The villa was exactly as described, spotlessly clean and had every facility you would ever want and more! It is so comfortable and so quiet and peaceful. We loved the private hot tub and the grounds are filled with a huge variety of plants and lovely mature trees, the views are beautiful. The villa is perfectly located for the beach and the local area has many nice restaurants and plenty of supermarkets. A real find! We will go back.

Beautiful villa and gardens, fantastic setting.
We were so looking forward to this holiday, it was the first time we had rented a villa and it turned out to be truly fantastic. A wonderful experience right from the moment we booked. The owners Mark and Agnes were very welcoming and informative when they met us and took time to show us around their villa and gave us an insight into the local area. It is in an absolutely perfect place, close to restaurants and the beach, only a short walk away and the local supermarket. And yet once you are there you feel like you are in your own little oasis, totally secluded in beautiful well kept gardens and a hot tub. We had exactly what we came for, a very relaxing quiet holiday. Thank you Mark and Agnes, your house is beautiful.

Really nice place for a relaxing holiday.
When my friend told me about this place, I made general noises of affirmation but eventually we found some time to check it out. Before we'd even set off the level of professionalism and local knowledge from the owner was very high and they were very responsive. The interior and exterior was superb, the villa was imaculately clean and tidy and overall very comfortable. The hot tub and BBQ area were lovely and the exploration of the local village (Cabanas) revealed many exciting and relaxing venues; we found bars to drink and a good choice of restaurants. I could go on however I would only be robbing you of the opportunity to come and discover the place for yourself.

Looks lovely fom the outside but has a dated interior. Hot tub great.
The bungalow has good space for 2 people but is very basic and dated. No dresser, drawers or mirrors in the bedroom only one face mirror in the bathroom. Kitchen has basics, kettle, gas cooker, a mish mash of pots and pans and an old microwave which would benifit from a good clean. Bed is vey hard and pillows leave a lot to be desired.
The garden it lovely although there are a lot of ants and the hot tub is great.
No bulb in bedside light had to buy our own.
Overall for the price I think the villa could do with a little T&C and updating to make guests stays more comfortable. But lovely garden, hot tub and area.
Mark met us at the property but only stayed for a few minutes and did not offer any information about the area and there was no literature on places to visit, restaurants etc.
Mark did kindly agree to let us stay until 12.00 on the day of our departure.

Relaxation Retreat
Cabanas is a quieter area of the Algarve, this is quiet within the quiet (apart from a cock peacock calling in the distance at times)a very tranquil place.
The outside space is ideal for chilling out in the hot tub of having a BBQ, we had 3 BBQ's but simply ate out all the other days, we never used the oven or microwave as the local restaurants were so good - Steak on the Rock at Rota Dos Sabores is highly recommended (over the railway line, take the slight right up the side of the church and it's on the right around the corner) Biggest and leanest steak ever!!!
Having the off road parking is good as you know when you leave the car there it's not going to be bumped into, when you see a lot of Portuguese cars you see they can't take care.
We would return to Cabanas

Perfect home away from home.
It was our first trip to Portugal and we were not disappointed. The villa was lovely and was equipped with everything we could possibly need. It was immaculately clean and tidy and the beds and sofas were very comfortable. It was in a perfect location for us - set away from the hustle and bustle of the town but close enough (walking distance) to enjoy the amenities on offer. The garden was very pretty and the jaccuzi was perfect for spending the evening relaxing with a glass of wine. We couldn't have asked for anything more and hopefully we will return here again.

Very Enjoyable
My wife and I visited in February chasing a little bit of Winter sun. Weather wise, our first 4 days were fine, between 15 and 17 degrees which for me is about as good as you can hope for anywhere in Europe in early February. It was a very wet end to the week though.
The Villa itself met our expectations. It's listed as sleeping 4, but for me, it's too small for 4 adults as there is only the one bedroom and then a pull out bed in the living room. Might be ok for kids.
There's lots to like about the villa;
It's well located and just an easy 15 minute walk down to Cabanas promenade.
The villa has a lovely compact garden with beautiful planting and is quite private.
There are some sun beds on a nice decking area and a barbecue (not used by us)
There is a lovely hot tub that was well used during the week that my wife and I were there, even in the evenings when it was chilly, it was lovely to sit in the hot tub with a beer or glass of wine.
There are a few areas noted below that with minimal work and expense would make a holiday more enjoyable for future guests.
The bed needs new pillows, we've experienced this before elsewhere. For me villa owners should replace the pillows every season.
The shower screen needs to be replaced, it's far too small and water goes everywhere in the bathroom, constant mopping up required.
A little bit of investment in new cutlery and crockery wouldn't go amiss.
That's it, not really complaints, more suggestions for improvements. Overall, we had a good week in the villa and the photos on owners direct are representative of the villa.
The owners were helpful replied promptly to all questions and were there on arrival to explain all the details required.
For Cabanas itself, we found it a little quiet in February although I believe it's a very busy place in summertime.

Fantastic Villa, location, excellent quality.
What a Fantastic Villa. The Location of this villa is brilliant. It is so easy to get to the sea front and the beach which is absolutely gorgeous.The food is brilliant - also the bars are great. The locals make you feel so welcome. The villa has everything in it that you need and it is so clean. We loved the jacuzzi, the tropical garden and we made good use of the purpose built barbecue. Will be back as it was just perfect.

When are we going back
This is what we ask ourselves each time we stay at this lovely villa, tucked away from it all, but close enough to everything that you need. We have stayed at this villa several times, and it is just perfect for us. A well laid out property, with a lovely relaxing bedroom (cool when it's hot outside), a well- equipped kitchen, nice lounge area and bathroom Outside is just as it's shown in the pictures - a good sized Jacuzzi for two or four of you, and plenty of space with loungers, table and Bar-B-Q. The villa is spotless and very clean, the garden and pool are totally private. The village and the beach is a short walk away, and beach is just amazing. There is Wi-Fi available upon request for a small fee, however we found that there is so much to do in cabanas and we just wanted o relax when back at the villa, that we did not need it. the airport only about 40 mins drive. We have no hesitation in recommending this villa for a wonderful, relaxing holiday - if you go, we're sure you'll ask yourself "When are we going back?"!

Good
Very private and relaxing stay.
Could do with wifi in this age and aircon for high season.
However for feeling secure and relaxing late into the night this is a heaven.
Great area for beaches and eating.
Would use property again .

Lovely traditional Villa
Stayed in this quirky, traditional villa for a week in August and absolutely loved it. It's situated in a very quiet, private little cul de sac and although in a largely residential area, it was close enough to walk to local amenities such as the supermarket, restaurants etc whilst still being within pleasant walking distance of Cabanas village. My husband and I stayed here along with our son and I would say that it is perfect for those seeking a quiet, relaxing holiday. i certainly intend to return here next year if possible and would not hesitate in recommending this property

Beautiful Villa, perfect location.
Have just arrived home after spending 7 nights in this villa. Mark and Agnes were so helpful from start to finish. The villa is ideally situated; close to all amenities and yet away from the evening noise. The villa includes everything you could possibly need for a relaxing holiday and is a real home from home, spotlessly clean. We couldn't really have chosen better! Thank you both for everything.

We loved this Villa
We have just returned from this villa in Cabanas and we had a great time. When we arrived the owner Mark was there to greet us and show us around, this was very helpful. The villa is exactly as described, very clean and tidy with everything you could ask for to make your stay very comfortable. We loved the hot tub, which is very relaxing in the summer evenings, jumping in and out as we barbecued our fresh fish that we would buy daily from the local market. The villa is an easy walk to all of the restaurants, the beach and all other amenities. Overall we had a very relaxing and comfortable stay in villa Cabanas and we would like to thank Mark for our time there. We would highly recommend this villa and will be telling all of our friends about our wonderful holiday. We will see you next year Mark, Thanks.
