Villa 81, 'cozy', in a fantastic location on Oura beach, Albufeira
This villa is a traditional in style, "cozy" and comfortable, are a great location to enjoy all the conditions and facilities area of Areias de S. João in the heart of Albufeira and where is located the Village tourist along the Oura beach and next, but far enough away not to disturb, to the well-known and busy "the strip" which offers a vibrant nightlife with bars, traditional and international restaurants, cafes, clubs’ disco, supermarkets, shops, taxi and tourist and public transport. It is also five minutes’ walk from the bus stops of the main attractions and distractions that may have in the Algarve, such as: Touristic Train, Zoomarine, Aqualand, Aquashow, Sightseeing Albufeira, etc. Our villas – Villa 2 (6 people), Villa 15 (10 people) and Villa 81 (6 people) - all in the same area, they are very similar in their lay out as part of an urban set developed for tourism, for years, according to a criterion of simplicity and functionality. They have fantastic location and are close to all the necessities for your family or your group of friends on vacation, it is not necessary car. Are a few minutes’ walk from the entertainment and leisure venues and the beaches of Oura and Forte. The center of the old town is a few minutes’ walk including through the beach of Forte. Albufeira, is in the middle of the Algarve and close to many places and towns worth checking out. It is served by rail (place of Ferreiras) so you can use this medium for visits. Faro airport is only 35 Km. An open-plan room with seating area with armchairs and cable TV and a Wi-Fi service quality; the kitchen fully equipped, including with oven, hob, large fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, electric kettle and other equipment; the dining room includes a table and chairs for the capacity of each villa. A wide sliding door makes communication with the covered terrace with full view of the pool with table and chairs, perfect place to be during the day and a dinner "Al Fresco". The rooms, all overlooking the pool and bathrooms in sufficient numbers are those listed in each of the villas and all have rooms with double beds and in suite and bedrooms with twin beds. In front of the living and bedrooms room appears the pool with nice terrace and flower beds where they grow fantastic "Strelitzia Nicolai", have a barbecue, seating areas and ping pong table and a generous sized pool lined with beds and parasols for a perfect relaxation. We provide a complete cleaning service and detailed prior to your arrival and a change of towels mid stay. If the time is fifteen or more days per week, we provide a thorough cleaning. We can arrange additional cleaning service if required for additional price. For an extra person, the extra bed is only installed if contracted at the same time as the reservation NOTE: FOR LONG-TERM RENTALS IN WINTER (FROM NOVEMBER TO MARCH) WITH PRICES SUITABLE FOR THE SITUATION, IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE OCCUPAANCY IS ONLY FOR TWO PEOPLE AND CLEANING OR CHANGE OF LINEN IS NOT PROVIDED, HOWEVER, ON REQUEST, THESE SERVICES CAN BE PROVIDED, UPON ADDITIONAL PAYMENT. WE ADVISE YOU TO MAKE A PRICE INQUIRY FOR LONG WINTER STAYS As a rule, we, the owners, we received our guests which is always a plus and great pleasure for us. In order to facilitate the arrival and movement of our guests we can inform the transfer service from Faro airport which usually performs these services for our villas. Better than the owners say is what our guests write about our villas and your stay: "First of all, I would like to say the service we got from the owners was the best, from first booking to our return home, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you. Now on to the villa, well what can I say. The villa is well equipped for all your needs, spacious kitchen with all you need for self-catering. Comfortable living area and nice dining area. There is a nice light bedroom, which are very spacious and also have their own bathroom, which is very nice. Air conditioning and Wi-Fi which was an added bonus. Now on to the outside. VERY nice also, you get the sun all around the villa when it comes up, with plenty of sun loungers, with outside dinning and BBQ. the and not forgetting the beautiful pool. The villa is in an ideal location to it is in a quiet area but only 5 minutes' walk from the strip and big supermarket and about 20 minutes to the old town. I would highly recommend this villa, and thank you again to Alfredo and Helena »

A lovely villa in a quiet part of town but close to all amenities with all you could need for a relaxing stay - especially the pool. Super helpful villa owners - a relaxing few days away in the sun.
Amazing home to stay in it’s easy to get to, only about 3min walk to the strip, house was very clean and the check in service was very good thank you so much for letting us stay in your home
Location was perfect for us and villa was great. cleanliness could have been slightly better and a cleaner was supposed to visit half way through the stay, but didn't.
Other than that we had no other issues. owners were great!

Lovely villa great hosts!
Villa was great and in a great location!
Very clean and great pool!
Amazing villa! The pool area is so nice and private, the rooms are a perfect size, great location near the strip but still nice quiet. 10 mins walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend.
Really good property in a fantastic location. Literally 4 mins from The Strip. Helena gave a contact for airport transfers and we walked and Uber'd the rest. Villa is very easy to stay in. We ate out quite a bit but we did cook a couple of times and no probs. The pool area is brilliant, bedrooms good size and beds very comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

Holiday June 2023
Construction work close by unfortunately and also some noise from the strip, but not too bad considering the proximity. Parts of the apartment need some maintenance and TLC which would make the property more amazing. Walk to old town 25 minute. We had a good holiday and the pool area is beautiful

Fantastic in every way possible, comfort and location
it was a fab girls holiday 11 of us had a great time. Location of the villa is perfect, just close enough to party and far enough to relax. The new strip which is not as crazy midweek is
5 mins walk away and the old town is a good 30 mins walk but 5 mins in a taxi. supermarket a short walk away.
Villa has everything you need and is clean and bright. Hosts are very helpful, friendly and go the extra step to make it bespoke to you . Couldn't fault a thing about the whole week Thanks you Helena and Alfredo for everything

well equipped villa with great outdoor space
This is a clean, secure, bright and well equipped villa with good pool and outdoor space and outdoor furniture/ sunbeds. Great rattan sofas with cushions outside- lovely for sitting out as the sun goes down👍 Good double shower in main bathroom and electric shutters in bedrooms a real bonus - let's light in at touch of button. Good quiet air con throughout. Helena and Alfredo are a welcoming and friendly couple who ensure the property is well maintained and are happy to advise and guide on anything. Location is close to strip (5mins) and near a Pingo Doce supermarket. The walk to the Old Town is about 25 mins- to be fair, I'm not fit so would be less for others! We were worried that taxis back from Old Town in the evening mightn't find the villa as it is in a quiet residential location but had no difficulty with this at all - were left right at the door every nite. Fare ranged from 6/7 euro. We have stayed in several villas previously and many also had good facilities but were often dark inside because the shutters were more hassle than enough to work - Villa 81 is not like that at all. All in all, we had a lovely time at this Villa and I would recommend it for smaller groups. We hope to be back next year. Well done to the owners - they have put a lot of thought into this villa and it shows.
Propriétaires facile à joindre et ponctuels. La maison correspond parfaitement à l’annonce et la terrasse est vraiment top avec la table à l’ombre. Maison proche de toutes les commodités et très bons restaurants aux alentours.
Very nice villa. Everything was neat and clean and it’s very close to the strip. Great pool and owners were very helpful. Kitchen had everything we needed but it was a bit small. Airco in every room was very nice but not all mattresses were the same quality. Overall very nice experience and glad we chose this villa for our vacation.
Great Location. Villa is very private with no one over looking garden, great sun trap.. Pool cold but when you did get in it was very refreshing and clean. Kitchen very small but had everything you needed. Aircon wonderful.
Tal y como se ve en el anuncio es una casa a la que no le falta de nada, muy cómoda para una familia con niños.
Y la localización es perfecta para visitar la playas y pueblos de la zona de Albufeira, hemos disfrutado mucho de la estancia y tanto Helena como Alfredo siempre estaban disponibles para cualquier consulta.
I stayed with 5 other friends in this amazing house. We loved the location and the house on it self. The house has a amazing pool and sitting area’s. Also a big plus was the outdoor shower which most of us used every morning instead of the indoor showers. Helena and Alfredo were amazing hosts and we had good contact with them!
Cuenta con todos los servicios. Vivienda coincidente con su descripción a 10 minutos de la playa. Pasamos semana de relax y descanso. Muy atentos a cuanto necesitábamos por parte de los anfitriones Alfredo y Helena. La recomiendo sin ninguna objeción.
This property is superb , it comprises of 3 double bedrooms with 3 bathrooms all with showers , the outside pool area is very spacious and private with no one looking in on you from other properties it is first class
I visited here with my family that included my 18 year old son and his girlfriend , the layout of the villa is very good with lots of living space that allowed them to basically have their own living space on one side of the property as they came and went at different times due to frequently sampling the local nightlife the “ Alberferia strip “that is only a 10 min walk away but far away enough that you can’t hear a thing
We would recommend this place for families or even friends together as you won’t be living on top of each other like a hotel , We would definitely like to return here one day
Local restaurants / shops are only a short walk ,there’s plenty to do plenty to see
There’s also a Lidl and an Aldi only a 6 euro taxi ride away to stock up on provisions for the villa
Owners were very nice people easy to contact and easy to deal with and very quick responses to any questions
This property gets a big thumbs up from all 5 of us who had the privilege of staying at it and hope to return one day
