Everything was amazing! The house was very well appointed and we had everything we needed. The pictures actually does not do it justice as it is way nicer in person. We had 9 nights and could have stayed longer. Close to town so we could walk. Highlight of our trip through Portugal! Thank you

The property was wonderful in a great location. The outside and the pool area was fantastic however we did feel the inside was tired and needed modernisation. The internet was good, parking was safe and in the villa grounds. Loads of space outside and large rooms inside. Very helpful check in and excellent communication. Overall we had an amazing time and loved the area.

Excellent villa, and good communication with the host. The family loved the holiday. Pool is fantastic, the lounge very comfortable, awesome views from the pool area and rooftop, and only a 15 minute walk to Carvoiero. We would come again in a heartbeat. David who welcomed us was also very helpful.

We have just returned from our fourth holiday at Casa Buganvila and, unusually, we would like to write a review for the benefit of others. This is a lovely traditional villa set in extensive well tended grounds and we are already booked for our next holiday! All three double bedrooms, plus the generous lounge open directly, via sliding patio doors with security shutters and fly screens (we haven't had mosi problems!), onto the large, covered, south facing terrace, which is ideal for outdoor dining and pre-dinner drinks. This terrace gives direct access to the enormous pool and pool terrace, ideal for swimming, sunbathing (beds all provided), barbecuing (built in bbq) and built-in alfresco dining. There are extensive views to the sea on this sunny, private, south facing pool terrace.There is a good sized, well equipped kitchen, two full bathrooms (both with bath and over-bath showers), and a substantial dining hall which gives access to an enclosed, sheltered, patio, which, in itself, gives access to a large roof terrace. There is also a garage with electric door to keep your car cool.The villa details as provided by the very helpful agents, Borboleta, are comprehensive and all equipment is in good order - if you have problems, they will sort it out! The photographs on the HomeAway site are also genuine and reflect accurately on the property.Other issues, which should be kept in fair proportion are;1. The location of the villa is great for us but you may find the walk to "restaurant hill" a little far (particularly if it's a bit warm!) and a rental car or taxi (which are plentiful and relatively cheap) might prove more practical. Incidentally, there are many good quality restaurants in the town - we particularly like A Marisqueiro (great bbq fish! and next door to the friendly Accordian sports bar!), Algarvia and Maxime - but you will no doubt find your own favourites!2. TV and entertainment equipment in the villa is quite good but we would prefer more English TV channels, particularly for sport (having said that, we don't go there to watch tele!).3. Depending upon time of year and prevailing temperatures, the villa is normally cool and comfortable (particularly if there is the usual light Atlantic breeze!). However, maybe for a villa of this quality and size, the installed air con, or part air con should be included in the price and not provided as an additional extra.This is quite an extensive review - but it is genuine and we wouldn't be go
