Great house, incredible pool and outdoor area, great location if you want to be close to the strip. Helena is excellent to deal with and very responsive.
Large villa, good location, very private outside, good pool although cold. Had to pay extra property tax which is fine although a bottle of water in the fridge or something would have been a nice gesture considering other properties we have stayed in provided a few simple items to welcome you.

Thank you for choosing our villa, and we were very happy to welcome you. We hope to have you back someday.
We also gladly received your suggestion, however, and in all honesty, we must correct your note when you say "pay extra property tax," when what it refers to is the Albufeira Tourist Tax, which is a benefit of the Municipal Council.

Lovely villa great hosts!
Villa was great and in a great location!
Very clean and great pool!
Amazing villa! The pool area is so nice and private, the rooms are a perfect size, great location near the strip but still nice quiet. 10 mins walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend.
A lovely villa in a quiet part of town but close to all amenities with all you could need for a relaxing stay - especially the pool. Super helpful villa owners - a relaxing few days away in the sun.
Really good property in a fantastic location. Literally 4 mins from The Strip. Helena gave a contact for airport transfers and we walked and Uber'd the rest. Villa is very easy to stay in. We ate out quite a bit but we did cook a couple of times and no probs. The pool area is brilliant, bedrooms good size and beds very comfortable. Would definitely recommend.
Amazing home to stay in it’s easy to get to, only about 3min walk to the strip, house was very clean and the check in service was very good thank you so much for letting us stay in your home

We really enjoyed having you and we are available for your next visit to Albufeira
Location was perfect for us and villa was great. cleanliness could have been slightly better and a cleaner was supposed to visit half way through the stay, but didn't.
Other than that we had no other issues. owners were great!

Holiday June 2023
Construction work close by unfortunately and also some noise from the strip, but not too bad considering the proximity. Parts of the apartment need some maintenance and TLC which would make the property more amazing. Walk to old town 25 minute. We had a good holiday and the pool area is beautiful

Fantastic in every way possible, comfort and location
it was a fab girls holiday 11 of us had a great time. Location of the villa is perfect, just close enough to party and far enough to relax. The new strip which is not as crazy midweek is
5 mins walk away and the old town is a good 30 mins walk but 5 mins in a taxi. supermarket a short walk away.
Villa has everything you need and is clean and bright. Hosts are very helpful, friendly and go the extra step to make it bespoke to you . Couldn't fault a thing about the whole week Thanks you Helena and Alfredo for everything

well equipped villa with great outdoor space
This is a clean, secure, bright and well equipped villa with good pool and outdoor space and outdoor furniture/ sunbeds. Great rattan sofas with cushions outside- lovely for sitting out as the sun goes down👍 Good double shower in main bathroom and electric shutters in bedrooms a real bonus - let's light in at touch of button. Good quiet air con throughout. Helena and Alfredo are a welcoming and friendly couple who ensure the property is well maintained and are happy to advise and guide on anything. Location is close to strip (5mins) and near a Pingo Doce supermarket. The walk to the Old Town is about 25 mins- to be fair, I'm not fit so would be less for others! We were worried that taxis back from Old Town in the evening mightn't find the villa as it is in a quiet residential location but had no difficulty with this at all - were left right at the door every nite. Fare ranged from 6/7 euro. We have stayed in several villas previously and many also had good facilities but were often dark inside because the shutters were more hassle than enough to work - Villa 81 is not like that at all. All in all, we had a lovely time at this Villa and I would recommend it for smaller groups. We hope to be back next year. Well done to the owners - they have put a lot of thought into this villa and it shows.

It was with great pleasure that we receive Monina and Seamus O 'Prey in our villa and we like to know who spent a pleasant day in our Algarve and hope one day we can revisit us.
We also thank the kind words about your opinion of your stay with us
Propriétaires facile à joindre et ponctuels. La maison correspond parfaitement à l’annonce et la terrasse est vraiment top avec la table à l’ombre. Maison proche de toutes les commodités et très bons restaurants aux alentours.
Very nice villa. Everything was neat and clean and it’s very close to the strip. Great pool and owners were very helpful. Kitchen had everything we needed but it was a bit small. Airco in every room was very nice but not all mattresses were the same quality. Overall very nice experience and glad we chose this villa for our vacation.
Great Location. Villa is very private with no one over looking garden, great sun trap.. Pool cold but when you did get in it was very refreshing and clean. Kitchen very small but had everything you needed. Aircon wonderful.
Tal y como se ve en el anuncio es una casa a la que no le falta de nada, muy cómoda para una familia con niños.
Y la localización es perfecta para visitar la playas y pueblos de la zona de Albufeira, hemos disfrutado mucho de la estancia y tanto Helena como Alfredo siempre estaban disponibles para cualquier consulta.
I stayed with 5 other friends in this amazing house. We loved the location and the house on it self. The house has a amazing pool and sitting area’s. Also a big plus was the outdoor shower which most of us used every morning instead of the indoor showers. Helena and Alfredo were amazing hosts and we had good contact with them!

Cuenta con todos los servicios. Vivienda coincidente con su descripción a 10 minutos de la playa. Pasamos semana de relax y descanso. Muy atentos a cuanto necesitábamos por parte de los anfitriones Alfredo y Helena. La recomiendo sin ninguna objeción.
