We regularly stay in VRBO properties and this was one of the very best experiences we've had! Communication with the host was easy and the host was very helpful. The property was beautiful and just what we were looking for! Everything worked. Location was great. Really enjoyed our stay at Villa Maresia. I'm ready to go back already!
A lovely stay in a spacious villa near to shops, restaurants and the sea. Really lovely.

Fantastic holiday villa
Fantastic place to stay - really close to a brilliant supermarket, a beautiful beach and a short journey to Albufeira.The villa itself is massive and lovely. Everything was exceptionally clean and the welcome we received was great. The reason for one star off - there isn’t enough parasols around the pool, the beds are very, very firm and the back garden.

Thanks for having us. We had a great stay!
We had an amazing stay! Booked at short notice and it did not disappoint. It’s much more spacious that the photos first look (inside). Plenty of room, pool was lovely, rooms clean, spacious games room, supermarket and restaurants within 5 minutes. Really cheap & easy to travel the island using bolt/uber. Would love to return!
Overall we had a lovely stay in the villa. It was very well equipped for a family. The location is perfect. The lounge area would benefit with comfier sofas. There were only 3 of us staying, but if there were 8 of you it would be a bit tight. The barbeque area outside was perfect. Again, the garden area next to it could be a lovely space if it was landscaped.
Spacious, clean and lots of bathrooms. The games room was appreciated by our 3 boys and my wife and I. Should have gone for the pool heating when we booked as it was chilly at this time of year 19 degrees but went up to 28 on our last day. Well located for the beach and great supermarket round the corner and an Aldi only a few mins away. Great trip.
Ein großzügiges Haus in perfekter Nähe zum Strand.

En una valoración global la Villa le damos una valoración aceptable
Lo que más valoramos de esta Villa es su situación.
El mobiliario, sofás y algunos colchones necesitan un recambio. El menaje de cocina, tiene que mejorarse. En general la villa necesita una actualización.

In need of a small renovation...
Very nice location, pool with good solar positioning and nice outdoor space for BBQ.
Interior needs to improve confort, old couch, old mattresses, smelly bathrooms, with ants, heating failed some days on the pool.

Lovely Villa
We really enjoyed our stay here! A lovely pool with great outside seating and a bbq. We also got a lot of use out of the games room in the basement! Fantastic service when we needed more towels delivering. There’s a supermarket very close by which sells all the essentials and Aldi is about a 30 minute walk away. Only slight disadvantage was the air con in the bedrooms wasn’t very good, so it was quite hot at night. However this didn’t impact our experience and we would definitely like to return next year!
The air con in the bedrooms didn’t really work, particularly in the downstairs bedrooms.
