Holiday Homes in Barlavento

"My family and I had the best holiday staying in this villa. The property is a really good size and it was a bonus having a lovely private pool in the garden, It is within walking distance of the beach, super market and lots of restaurants and bars. Louis was very friendly and helpful and we look forward to staying here again in the future. "

"Immaculately clean and well-equipped apartment, the perfect size for 2-4 people. Beach was a few steps away and lots of restaurants and small supermarket were within easy walking distance. We had a car to visit nearby towns, but free parking was readily available in the middle of Salema. My only recommendation would be for a table fan in the bedroom to keep the room cooler at night. "

"This is a large, well equipped house in a small resort development. The house is lovely with everything you need and more than big enough for our 5 adult family. The village is quieter and less touristy than some in the Algarve but with that came more of a Portuguese feel. The nearby villages of Salema and Burgau were well worth a visit. Whilst I understand costs need to be controlled, having fresh bedding/towels during a 2 week stay would be nice. Also, although we don’t want to watch tv all...

"The appartment is lovely, very clean and everything you need. It also has a great garden. Patrick who welcomes you is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. Location wise is perfect for the beach, old town and Marina. Negatives are the you have to chase the host for information, They said they could arrange transfers and when i chased to tell them our flight times, they then said they could no longer supply transfers due to car issues. I just feel they should have let us know earlier not 2...

"Beautiful surroundings. Excellent/prompt communication with host. Neighbours could get a bit noisy roudy"

"While this is a good location, the property and manager were incredibly disappointing. When we arrived, the lockbox was not labeled with the code given by the manager. Eventually, we found it, but the key was NOT in the lockbox. The manager did not answer his phone. Someone else who had a property found the key for us. There was NO wifi. We tried several times to contact the manager, but he never fixed this. The water went out the first day, so we could not take a shower. The property said it...

"I left right away, stayed in hotel. House was misrepresented. Not large house, but apt, no ocean view, no TV, no 2nd bathroom, not beach front... 20 min away. Heavy musty smell which was unbearable, he said "I have no mold" his word, not mine. Entrance to place was not the front door, but through like a garage which was filled with junk,hoses,stuff. Door to apt was covered in turf, did not lock properly, did not open all the way, he told me don't worry, it's safe here. There's a 2nd apt. in this...

"We had a wonderful 2 week family holiday in this villa. A quiet location, only a few minutes walk from a beautiful sandy beach with sunbeds and a lovely small cafe/bar. Beach towels provided and high chair, cot and water related toys all available for the 2 year old in our party. Gardens front and back and pool very well maintained. Kitchen well supplied with crockery and equipment. Friendly local supermarket, bread shop and restaurants close by. Any queries and requests we had were very...
