Even better than it looks in the pictures. The villa was brilliant. Well equipped kitchen, air conditioning in all bedrooms, the pool was great. Silves is 10 mins away and has everything you need from supermarkets to cafes and restaurants. We would definitely stay again.

Great venue for our friends & family reunion with lots of interesting spaces for break-out sessions. Far enough away from the bustle of the Algarve coast to relax, close enough to the coast when we wanted it. Fantastic outdoor dining and pool area for large evening meals. Friendly hosts who were always available to help us out, and became friends with my mother-in-law!

We stayed at this villa in May 2026 for 10 days as a young family of 4.The villa had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The location was rural so it was nice and quiet, but only 20 mins away from the beach and tourist spots. 10 minutes away from the local town and a Lidl. A car is essential. It was clean and the owners were lovely, friendly and generous with the produce of their farm. The pool was 32/34 degrees for our stay which was ideal, especially for our 2 young kids.We would highly recommend this villa and hope to stay again. Thank you Fernando and family!

Paradise

We loved Villa Rios. Fernando and family were very nice hosts, thanks for the great stay. Villa Rios is a clean and well equipped villa, and the garden and view is stunning. Everything was well maintained and we felt very welcome. Fresh oranges were delicious, thanks Fernando. The villa is a 10 min drive from Silves and 25 to several beaches.

Great quiet place to discover the Algarve

This is an ideal place to stay, approximately 45 minutes drive from Faro airport. The property is spacious, with 5 bedrooms, so could easily accommodate a large group. Was very clean, and had a nice outdoor covered area with fridge and sink, so a great place to eat outdoors when required. The upper floor balcony had beautiful views over the hills. The owner lived on the adjacent farm behind and was a lovely host. He even gave a little tour around the orange and avocado trees on his farm. I would say having a car is a must. The town of Silves is only 10 minutes drive, where there is an old castle and plenty of places to eat. The coast, depending on where you go, is 30 to 40 minutes drive away. I'd also recommend the market on a Saturday morning in Loule. The house is very quiet, set on a small road, so a very pleasant place if thats what you are wanting.

We spent a wonderful week with all our family here. The garden was beautiful and so restful. The children loved the pool and the summer kitchen was just great. We preferred to be at the villa than the beach. Silves was nice to visit in the evening and we were lucky enough to be there for the medieval festival ! Fernando and Maria were the perfect hosts welcoming us to their lovely comfortable home nestled by their organic farm. A perfect holiday for us all - we were sad to leave. Thank you so much Fernando and Maria! We hope we can return.

We verbleven met ons gezin en het gezin van mijn schoonzus in dit vakantiehuis in Silves en hebben een fantastische tijd gehad. Het huis was ruim, netjes en volledig in orde. Ook het zwembad was heel aangenaam en goed onderhouden – ideaal om af te koelen en te ontspannen.De eigenaars zijn bijzonder vriendelijk en betrokken. Toen één van de kinderen ziek werd, gingen ze zelfs met ons mee naar het ziekenhuis om te helpen met vertalen en ondersteuning te bieden. Die hulp en warmte hebben we enorm gewaardeerd.Het huis ligt op een rustige locatie, wat erg aangenaam is voor wie houdt van rust en privacy. Alles was goed bereikbaar met de auto.

Mooi verblijf voor een gezinsvakantie

Goed onderhouden ruime villa met schitterende tuin. Uitermate geschikt voor een verblijf met meerdere personen. In de tuin, onder het afdak en aan de grote eettafel, hebben we vele uren doorgebracht met eten en gezelschapsspellen. Vanaf de eerste verdieping schitterend uitzicht richting zee. De foto's bij de advertentie liegen absoluut niet. Het meest vermeldenswaardige is toch wel de vriendelijkheid van de gastheer en zijn familie. Het was bijna of je elkaar al langere tijd kent. Hij komt op geregelde momenten een aantal overheerlijke, verse en zelf gekweekte citrusvruchten langsbrengen. En de avond voor vertrek kwam de gehele familie op hartelijke wijze afscheid nemen. Zijn er dan geen mindere punten? Wel degelijk, maar deze vallen wat ons betreft in het niet bij alle positieve ervaringen. Om ze dan toch te benoemen; auto benodigd want de villa ligt redelijk afgelegen, en met name de pannen zijn in de loop der tijd van mindere kwaliteit geworden. De twee grote koelkasten en andere huishoudelijke apparatuur zijn daarentegen weer prima. Fernando en familie, we hebben genoten en komen graag nog een keer terug.

Wundervoller Urlaub in wundervoller Umgebung

Die Unterkunft war sehr schön und sehr gepflegt. Durch die Gastfreundschaft der Vermieter haben wir uns gleich wohl gefühlt. Die Villa liegt schön ruhig und der Strand ist in 20-30 Minuten mit dem Auto erreichbar. Perfekt für Familien und jung bis alt. Wir wollten nicht weg und können es mit besten Gewissen weiter empfehlen. Wir waren zu 8 mit zwei Kleinkindern und zwei Jugendlichen und keiner hat sich gelangweilt.

A beautiful villa with very friendly hosts!

Our stay in Villa Rios was really great. Fernando, his wife and his son-in-law were all very friendly and forecoming. They checked in several times to see if we needed anything. The check-in and check-out were very easy and flexible, which helped a lot due to our late and belated flights. The house was very neat and the garden was beautiful. The pool and dining table were our favourite spots for most of the week! Thank you Fernando!

A fantastic place to be

It s a beautiful house where we were. We really liked it so much. Everything we needed was there and sometimes we didn’t want to go out because it was so nice to stay at home there. But what the best thing we liked was the hospitality from the owners. Always willing to help us. They even brought toys for the baby when the suitcase with baby things was missing at the airport. Again thanks for all you did for us
