Superbe villa
Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour. La maison est spacieuse, agréable, propre et très bien équipée. Graham est un hôte parfait, souhaite que les locataires passent le meilleur séjour possible. La piscine est grande et chauffée, nous en avons beaucoup profité. Endroit très calme sans vis a vis avec une vue dégagée et très agréable. Nous recommandons fortement la location de cette maison. Encore merci a Graham et Pat

Beautiful villa
The villa, gardens and pool are beautifully kept and as described . The owners have added lots of thoughtful touches such as a supply of inflatable pool toys, separate ( good quality ) pool towels and bath towels and additional portable air con/ heating units. There are plenty of options for shade and eating and the outside space is immaculate. The gardeners, pool cleaner and weekly maid all provided a thorough service, which was much appreciated. The weather was exceptionally hot while we were there, so we spent much of our time around the villa as it was just too hot to go far - the aircon was a necessity and much appreciated . The only downside was that we were plagued by mozzies in the evening and July is wasp season - they also plagued our meal times. Citronella candles and plug ins were provided but I’d recommend other guests use a strong repellent and extra plug ins - this is a rural area so it’s unavoidable. There are also fly screens on all the windows and doors but we were still bitten ( not stung). A nice beach within 20 minutes drive is Fuseta - very few British tourists, mostly Portuguese and French . The beach is a blue flag and patrolled - we went early morning to try to beat the heat. We had a wonderful holiday, it was the perfect villa to bring our two year old on her first trip abroad , the pool is very child friendly but also big enough to have a proper swim for the adults. This is definitely the best villa we have ever stayed in. Thank you Graham and Pat!

Amazing stay in Faro
First time in Portugal and we couldn’t have had a more wonderful time at this beautiful villa. Spotlessly clean, everything you need and more. I would highly recommend and would like to thank the home owners and VRBO.

About the host

Hosted by Graham Russell

Hello, thank you for considering our Villa for your next holiday. Our whole family loves the climate and the visitor attractions in the Algarve - there is something for people of all ages. We have been spending holidays in the Algarve for the past 20 years - right from when our Children were young. We love the family atmosphere, the range of activities and the warm welcome from the local population. Historically we have preferred the Eastern Algarve, but brought a villa in the Central Algarve because it is a much more convenient location for a holiday & for travelling either East or West. We hope you enjoy looking at our Villa details. Regards, Graham and Pat.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to buy a Villa in an area that is really convenient for getting to the Tourist Attractions, Beaches and Golf Courses in the West, But not too far away from the more historic East, which is also a more traditional area with lovely restaurants. The area around Santa Barbara De Nexe and Estoi is really superb because it is convenient for the Airport and with excellent links to both East and West. The villa itself has good access to the main roads, but is in a quiet part of the countryside. When purchasing the villa we wanted somewhere that was quiet but not isolated, with it's own grounds in a private setting. We also wanted somewhere with plenty of space but with a lovely homely feel. This villa meets all of our needs perfectly. We hope it fits your needs for a wonderful holiday too.

What makes this property unique

The views from the verandas are great and you can see all the way to the Sea from the upstairs balcony. We are on the side of a hill on gently sloping ground which has been terraced. Because we are the villa highest up the hill of the small number of properties in our development it means that we have lovely views and both the house and pool area are private. This villa is not a commercial property - it is our holiday home and we have therefore taken time to put into it the things that we want to see and use when we are on holiday. So in the house you will find things like a Nintendo wii, a Playstation PS3 and a DVD playback system for all those films that you never get time to see at home, we also have an unlimited wi-fi facility. The kitchen also has those little extras not usually found in rental properties.
