Albufeira adventure

Had a great stay! House was spacious and comfortable although some found the beds a little hard. The house was modern and well equipped with pretty well all we needed. We had a car which was handy for getting groceries at the larger shops and for exploring the area but you could get away without using Uber and walking to local Mercado.

Great Holiday

Super villa in a great location for the marina and old town. The villa is in a quiet area, but has all facilities required and plenty of space to spread out for our party of eight. Communication beforehand and during our stay, with the Property Manager, was superb - very helpful. Highly recommended.

Excellent stay.

We had a fantastic stay in June/July. The property is to very high standard and very beautiful. The host can be contacted very easily and very quick to respond to any queries or general questions. It was a fantastic break away and would definitely stay again. Property was clean and well presented and the pool was cleaned before during and after our stay.

Beautiful Villa + An Amazing Stay!

We could not of asked for a better base for our trip to the algarve, beautiful villa & Sonja was so helpful after booking / during our stay. Really ideal location, not much in an Uber to get around. We enjoyed the pool & bar and of course the Portuguese sunshine! Thankyou for a great stay.

We stayed at this beautiful villa with 7 ladies. Communication with the property manager beforehand was fabulous and the villa is very well maintained. A mild warning, which certainly did not affect our stay, but there are a lot of stairs including some rather steep ones from the ground floor to the first floor. The villa was clean and well maintained and really well equipped. 5 minutes walk from the marina, 15-20 minutes walk from the old town. We loved it. We will definitely be back.

Fabulous, modern Villa close to Marina

The Villa is very modern, with all the facilities needed to make it a lovely place for a group or family. On 3 levels it gives you individual living space with a lovely pool and sun beds to relax in. The Marina is a lovely spot to enjoy boat rides, restaurants and a grocery store. The little tourist train can be caught there which takes you to the old town, or hop on the next tourist train to travel around Albufeira. We were a group of 8 friends and had an amazing time.

A little ray of Sunshine - Highly recommended

Love this villa - Stayed here with my family (x10) for a week in Oct 24. The villa is spacious, comfortable and ideally located to get to the Marina, local shops and provided a pleasant walk into Albuferia Old Town each day. Everything you need is provided inside the villa which made it so easy and let you relax and get on with the holiday straight away. The pool, although freezing at that time of year to be fair, was a welcome break on the hotter days so yes we did take the plunge! An information pack and attractions/excursion leaflets were also on hand to allow you to plan your activities. A short trip to the nearest Aldi, a few minutes away via Uber, enabled us to get our big shop in. The rest waqs done when and as needed via the local shops. The communication leading up to the stay was first rate and we were greeted upon arrival at the villa, shown around and everything was explained clearly. We were then left to get on with the holiday... brilliant! Thank you Nicholas and Sonja for making the stay that much more pleasant. A**

Amazing Stay At Villa Sunshine Blues

Our large family had a fantastic stay at Villa Sunshine Blues this summer. Plenty of space for 5 adults and 4 children, incredible communication from start to finish, clean and beautifully finished interior and a lovely pool and barbecue area. Located between the marina and old town with plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance as well as the supermarket. For me the thing of note is how helpful Sonja and Caitlin were with anything we needed. Any question we had was answered quickly and the couple of tiny issues were sorted straight away with no hassle. Sonja even helped arrange and confirm transfers for us a few days after checking out of the villa. Really fantastic team to deal with!

Recent Stay Villa Sunshine Blues

We recently stayed at the villa for a week in August. Sonja was great she was in regular contact from booking the villa and during our stay. She was easily contactable throughout our stay couldn’t do enough to help and was always quick to respond. She also arranged for Roger to collect us from and drop us back off at the airport, lovely guy. The villa has everything mentioned in the write up and plenty of space for our group of 8. My only small concern having 2 young children was that there were no locks on the 2 gates to the villa. We made full use of the pool, bbq and the views from all of the balcony’s are great. It’s only a 5 minute walk from the villa to the marina and 5 minute taxi ride to the old town. I would definitely recommend it and stay here again in the future.

First Class Villa - First Class Service

The Villa is first class with almost 3 separate sections. We has a friend stay for several days who was attending our son's wedding with us and she stayed on the middle floor. After she left our youngest son and his girlfriend moved in for 2 days and stayed in what was basically a self contained apartment on the ground floor - this meant we all had privacy. The villa has everything you need - a lovely sunny pool area, a shaded terrace to eat and socialise plus a large lounge and dining area. From the outset Sonja the property manager was in regular contact and sorted out anything we required even lifts to and from the airport with Roger a lovely and very reliable guy. Sonja's service was first class and helped ensure we could just enjoy the wedding and our stay at this excellent villa. Thoroughly recommend staying here - no complaints whatsoever!

Real family time

Had a wonderful stay, children absolutely loved the pool. Everything you needed in the kitchen. Liked the separate downstairs area with own small kitchen for one of the families. Just had to watch the stairs with the little ones, possible safety gate would have helped. It was a hilly area however you can’t really get away from that anywhere else as the town itself is up and down. Did not spoil our holiday in anyway. Would easily return again.
