Wonderful pool, amazing roof terraces x2, large tv for winding down in the evening

We enjoyed everything that Villa Oliandra had to offer. The list is endless so please bear with me 😊… The electric security gates were superb for our family. My nephew is non verbal autistic and he can be a flight risk. At the start of our holidays, we tend to spend countless hours ensuring the place is safe and secure. We only required 5 minutes and felt at ease straight away. The photos honestly do not do the villa justice. Only once you are there, that you see the villa for its worth and size and beautiful scenery and so so peaceful!! As a family, it worked so well for us. My brother and his family stayed downstairs where my mum and I enjoyed life upstairs in the villa in the two separate bedrooms and bathroom. It was amazing and meant we could all be super relaxed and not feeling like we were impinging on each other, especially the mornings. I especially enjoyed the morning as would be up early when it was so peaceful and try my best to take all of that scenery in. It is like a home from home (seriously), we didn’t need to take hairdryers. Everything is pretty much there for you. I ironed my entire suitcase upon arrival. The family laughed so much but I had the last laugh when I saw them getting that ironing board back out each day 😂. We met amazing neighbours… albeit broken English and Portuguese but they made us feel at ease and met a beautiful dog called Rocky. It felt longer than just two weeks of a stay. I enjoyed where the villa was situated… not too far from Villamoura. We usually stay near Guia but was brilliant to stay closer to the marina. We hired two cars through booking.com, not that this is a definite must have but we enjoy breaking a day up by going to Algarve/Mar shopping centre. Absolutely ❤️ driving on the right side of the road, feels more natural. Tony (our host) was on call each and everyday, nothing was a bother for him and he took pleasure in responding to our many questions.

I honestly cannot think of anything to critique about the Villa. Everything was there for us and nothing too much of an effort if we needed to ask a question,Tony took the time to ensure our stay was a happy and relaxed time away. Nothing was too small or big to discuss. I remember saying to my family on day 3… I just have a need to explore the entire villa which took a bit of time to get around! We have managed to capture many beautiful family moments that we will treasure for ever ❤️ Honestly Tony, we cannot thank you enough. Even to the moment when I arrived in Newcastle airport and explained my lost car key… £750 later and you were still invested in making sure we were okay. I thank you so so much for allowing us to share your beautiful villa for the last few weeks and I so cannot wait until next year. 😁🤗😁

The pool The view The shower outside The amability of the owner

the fact that the rooms are on 2 floors the ants

Well kept and clean!

very spacious villa with everything you could possibly need, fully equipped kitchen, heated pool, comfortable beds, very clean when we arrived and good communication from the owner.

The outdoors of the house were amazing and had great view on the terrace. Pool had a cover to put at night so that the water was warmer the next day. Confort (couch, beds,...). The owner was great and flexible with everything.

Sometimes there were ants in the house but this is an overall problem in Vilamoura (every house I've been in had ants). However, the owner was upfront about it with us and left us sprays to deal with the issue so it wasn't a big problem

The location was great, so close to Vilamoura yet also in a lovely quiet area with lovely views. The pool was a real highlight of the trip for our group and we spent a lot of time around it. Such a great holiday. Tony, our host, did everything he could to make our trip comfortable and the care and attention he puts into the property was clear to see, right down to the immaculate lawn and beautiful flowers, orange and lemon trees. Highly recommended.

The Villa was in a beautiful Private setting, remote yet easily accessible to Vilamoura with UBER. The Villa has everything that one could need and perfect for either a family or group of friends. Rooms spacious and Air Conditioned. The Pool is just perfect. Water warm all day and spotless. I could write a lengthy endorsement of this Villa as we loved every second of our visit and we will definitely be back. NOTE: The owner Tony was an amazing host and in regular contact to ensure we were happy....
