My family and I stayed here for a week, the property was really good. Communication was perfect before arrival. The villa itself was clean and we had a towel and sheet change halfway through the week. The villa is large and modern. The bedrooms were all large and spotless, beds were comfortable. Bathrooms were modern and clean. The upstairs bathroom would benefit from a glass shower door and an extractor fan. The pool and outside space is very nice and enjoying breakfast on the sheltered patio is perfect. The sun blind was welcome in the mid day heat. The pool is very large and perfect for a good swim. The villa is located on a quiet road with a few neighbouring villas nearby. We visited the aqua park and played golf at the Faldo course, both about 15mins away. The local towns were nearby and had some great restaurants. Cant really fault the villa, we had a nice relaxing week.

We had such a lovely stay at the villa. Every room was thought out.The swimming pool area was fantastic. My three boys loved it. It was so big. Even better than the photos showed. Would highly recommend it.

Loved this place, it was perfect for a getaway for our family of 7. The villa itself is beautiful and we felt very at home. The outdoor area is lovely, with a big pool and lovely spacious grounds. Overall we couldn't have asked for a better place. The villa is very well maintained, and despite no aircon we didn't overheat at all - much better for the environment - if you get too hot go and have a dip in the pool!

We absolutely loved your amazing villa property. It was located so close to amazing beaches, sights, hiking trails and restaurants. We had a rental vehicle which is a must for his location but also used Uber to one dinner and one winery excursion. We also walked down to the cliffs and beaches but roads would not be suitable for families with children. It was perfect for 3 couples. We cooked four dinner on the outdoor BBQ and loved sitting on the outdoor area in the evenings with our friends. I would highly recommend for spring and fall when you can manage without air conditioning. Many thanks to our amazing housekeeper for answering some urgent questions and doing a mid-week refresh on towels/bathroom tidy. We highly recommend this property

3 friends and I stayed at Casa Blanca for a 5 day golf break in the Algarve, as we do every year. I can honestly say the villa is by FAR the best place we have stayed in the Algarve. It's located close to beaches and in close proximity to a range of golf courses, supermarkets and water parks. The villa itself is a thing of beauty, it's spacious, homely and the setting is beautiful. Nestled between a backdrop of the sea, it is large enough to be private with plenty of room in the house and grounds. Wake up greeted by the sunrise, which shines onto garden all-day and watch the sunset from the veranda in the evening with a beer in hand. The pool was just right, clean and warm and large garden were perfect to chill out, play music and act like kids again. The bedrooms were cool and we didn't even need the fans that were provided. The mosquito nets made sure we slept even better ( not that there were many mosquitos at all). The kitchen was fully equipt and a dishwasher made life easy. The BBQ was the hardest worker during our stay and made short work of kilos of seafood and steak. The BBQ area was clean and close to the veranda making sure the cook was never too far away from the conversation. Although WiFi is a bit weak outside, but it wasn't a problem, there is no need to stare at a Phone screen when you've got the pool and garden to keep you entertained. Instructions for arrival were clear and easy and everything we needed we had.Can honestly say this villa is AMAZING

The villa is very spacious and in excellent condition. It was very clean. The bathrooms were immaculate and finished to a very high standard. Although the kitchen was small, it is very well stocked in terms of utensils and equipment. I would say the fridge is on the small side for 8 people if you are trying to chill drinks and store food. It’s great that the tap water is safe to drink but it was warm so needed to be put in the fridge to cool down. The outside dining and seating areas are very comfortable and spacious. The pool is a great size and is plenty big enough for a range of inflatables. We thought the pool was heated, but it turns out it is only heated in colder months so our toddlers found it a bit cold to be in for very long which was a little bit annoying. Anabelle came to check on everything on our first morning and was so helpful in recommending beaches and places to go. Communication with the hosts is excellent and they are very quick to respond. The bedroom layout of the villa is a bit unclear as one of the bedrooms and bathrooms has its own separate keyed door, so we couldn’t use it as it was too far away from the other bedrooms as we had young children. Overall we had a fabulous time here, however I do think not having air con particularly in bedrooms needs reviewing. The upstairs bedroom was incredibly hot (32 degrees one night) and even with a fan it was super uncomfortable to sleep. Sadly it would put me off booking again.

Nice pool. 2 casual good restaurants near by. We did have some problems with water supply, other than that, everything was fine. Good for a family holiday or a group of friends.
