The Villa is beautiful inside and out. If anything the pictures don't do it justice. Inside it is spacious and a nice mix of modern with some vintage pictures and traditional furniture. But the real attraction is the garden area. As you leave the kitchen there is a large table, Built in BBQ, and table football all sheltered under a lean-to. There is a section of grass which was great for my daughter running around. The pool is a good size to allow a little swimming. The whole garden is very sheltered, private, and was all child friendly. There is a garage which has an extra fridge freezer, bikes, pool toys, and a selection of children's toys.
The Villa is about 20 minutes from Faro and is centrally positioned for exploring the Algarve.
It is near a dual carriage way and close to a large shopping complex, but because of the walls that surround the villa you don't hear or see them from inside the villa. When you are in the garden you can hear the road in the distance, but it is a background noise that you don't notice. I only mention this because it was something that had concerned me before I travelled, but it really isn't an issue when you are there. Outside the villa is a small private road which leads to the aforementioned dual carriageway. You can walk or cycle to the town Amancil which is about a mile away, but you would need a car to get anywhere else.
Overall the Villa was outstanding and very well stocked with cleaning products, toilet paper, condiments, etc. The hosts were wonderful, so friendly and helpful. This is one of the best villas I have ever stayed in, I couldn't fault it.
