Property as described. Nice touch that property provided some cleaning supplies (dishwasher tabs, liquid dish soap, small amount of laundry detergent). Location meant that it was often windy which caused a little concern over the parasols in the garden. Location is very quiet and peaceful. Saturday night you could hear music from locations down in Guia, but this was only until 10/11pm or so, so nothing to worry about.

My family & I had wonderful 10 holiday in Villa Laura. Everything was exactly as we had hoped for. Villa was spotless, lots of space & fitted exactly to our needs, cleaning service half way through our stay which I was not expecting but very welcome. Lots to do for the kids especially water sports, marine park & water park all within easy reach of the villa, car recommended. Visit to the old town a must. We would must definitely be returning. Thank you so much.
Mooi ruim vakantiehuis waar we een fijn verblijf hebben gehad. Leuk dat er een pooltafel stond. Enige minpunt was het harde matras. En dat je snel koud water had met douchen als er meerdere tegelijk of na elkaar wilden douchen. Wel bijzonder met zoveel badkamers in het huis.
Fijn dat er de mogelijkheid was om het zwembad te verwarmen. Ons berichtje om dit te laten doen was helaas niet goed aangekomen maar toen we daar waren en erachter kwamen was het snel opgelost.
Ma femme mes enfants et moi avons passés 1mois dans cette somptueuse villa !!
Le calme, la vue, les équipements extérieur et intérieur tout est fait pour que le mot vacance est tout son sens. Équipements de qualité, clim fonctionnelle et très agréable. Literie de qualité.
C est une location que je peux recommander sans aucun soucis. Famille, amis y trouveront le même résultat la détente dans une région toujours aussi belle et accueillante
A fantastic villa with a spacious, comfortable and well-equipped living space. The villa is in a brilliant location, very secluded, with everything you need within a few minutes drive. We really enjoyed our stay and would thoroughly recommend it to others.
This has to be the best villa we have stayed at in Portugal. Huge bedrooms, great bathrooms modern furniture, living area great. The pool was wonderful for a adult poor swimmer and two young children, at last a pool the same depth all around. I must say a special thanks to the pool man who keeps the pool and garden area spotless. The cleaning staff changed beds and supplied clean towels at regular intervals which was much appreciated. We loved the pool table which we played many evenings once the children had gone to bed. Views are stunning, beautiful sun sets from all terraces.
We had a couple of things which were disappointing, on arrival the downstairs bedroom with en-suite, smelled of cigarette smoke and as we have kids and are none smokers it was unpleasant and was hard to dispel, the safe was closed and we were unable to access and the coffee machine would not work. We reported the safe and coffee machine but as it was the weekend we had to wait a couple of days for things to be rectified, but they were minor things, also could do with more pegs for washing line only had 6 pegs which is inadequate.
We had a wonderful time in a wonderful villa, would definitely come back here and use this management company as they answered all queries clearly and quickly.
Many thanks to all
This place has all you will need for a great holiday. The downsides are few - you do need a car as there's not much walkable from it in terms of beach, supermarket etc. However the pros far outweigh the negatives - 3 great bedrooms and bathrooms, a good sized (and clean) pool, the kitchen has all you need if you want to cook etc etc. We'd definitely recommend it to anyone

Excellent accommodation in a lovely private position.
This is a home from home, clean, well equipped villa. It was a bonus having the pool table and table football which we all had lots of fun with. It's in a very quiet area, unoverlooked and with a few restaurants and small supermarkets within walking distance. When the new larger supermarket is finished, it will give much more choice for everyday shopping. We would certainly use this villa again. The only reason we didn't give it 5* is because the pool wasn't heated. Ok in the hot summer months but cold at other times.

A fantastic villa for a family stay!
Great sea views in a quiet and private location. Clean and spacious with a lovely pool and patio.
The indoor living areas were comfortable with plenty of room and lots for the kids to amuse themselves. The only downside was the Wi-Fi was far to weak and needs to be upgraded for todays day and age.
I loved my stay so much I'm already looking for forward to next summer's holiday in one of your villas!
Thanks for looking after us there and giving us a great villa in the Algarve.

Amazing Villa in a lovely quite part of the Algarve
I have stayed in Gale now for the last 3 years and have used Algarve Villa Holidays the last two times, their Villas are always immaculate as was Villa Laura, it is walking distance to a few bars, restaurants and shops and a walkable distance to the beach, I look forward to going back next year.

Tolle Villa in Strandnähe
Die Villa ist toll, viel Platz, nicht weit vom Strand (Auto empfehlenswert), gepflegt und nett eingerichtet. Es gibt mehrere Terrassen, so dass man sich aussuchen kann, ob man in Sonne oder Schatten sitzen will. Der Pool ist sauber und gepflegt, bei heißem Wetter ein Genuss, leider nach Angaben der Hausverwaltung vor Ort entgegen des Inserats nicht beheizbar. Die Mitarbeiter der Verwaltung vor Ort sind freundlich, hilfsbereit und jederzeit ansprechbar. Anliegen werden sofort erledigt. Es gibt TV, aber leider keine deutschen Sender. Wer wissen will, was zu Hause passiert, sollte ein Tablet mitnehmen, WLAN funktioniert einwandfrei. Es war ein toller Aufenthalt, wir würden diese Villa jederzeit erneut buchen.

Maison parfaite
La maison est idéale, elle est parfaite.
La description correspond en tout point
Notre séjour à été super, je vous conseille vivement cette maison
Cependant il faudrait prévoir de chauffer la piscine car elle est très froide, c'était pas facile de se baigner . Il faudrait aussi prévoir un second trousseau car quand nous sommes plusieurs à sortir à des heures différentes c'est compliqué pour s'organiser

Great! Just what we wanted...
The villa is just as it looks on the photos except that there is now also table soccer on the veranda, a big hit with our family. Everything was clean and working, the general standard is good. Its tucked away and not at all overlooked or busy. Its possible to walk to a couple of restaurants and a small supermarket. Many restaurants are in easy reach by car, along with great beaches.

A lovely modern family villa
We thought the villa was wonderful. It is modern, very clean and well equipped. We especially liked the pool table. The outside space was well laid out, and a lovely pool. Having an electric gate also made us feel more secure. When we arrived we found a cot when we needed a bed, and a light bulb was needed in the bathroom; this was no problem as after a quick phone call there was somebody there sorting it out within the hour. Highly recommend the villa and service.

A truly beautiful villa in a lovely location.
This villa was wonderful. Absolutely stunning with excellent facilities. Immaculate presentation and in a lovely locality. We hired a car from the airport and we were within easy reach of other places eg. Albufeira, Alvor etc which we wished to explore.
As per usual we received a lovely welcome from James and the management staff who always provide excellent service.
We would certainly reccommend Villa Laura to our family and friends and we are looking forward to our visit next year.
Obrigada xx
