Modern spacious home with all you need

We loved our stay here. Very well equipped kitchen and big bedrooms with nice bathrooms too. The living area was great and the pools were really really nice too. Easy walk down to town (a bit steep on the way back up but we expected that and it helped burn some calories from the great meals we ate in town!) We’d definitely like to stay here again :)

Perfect!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! The villa is more impressive in person than the pictures. The house is spotless, beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is well-equipped, and we enjoyed the pool daily! The location is perfect for exploring local beaches and cliff walks, as well as a short drive to other towns and beaches. Highly recommend!

Wonderful family holiday

This property is very suitable for a family holiday. The pool is excellent and was used extensively. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. The outside barbecue was used on several occasions and was easy to use. Air conditioning was required and worked very well. Excellent Wi-Fi. Not ideal for anyone with mobility issues.

Simple & Comfortable Villa

The villa is comfortable and clean. The pool area has enough sun beds for everyone. The town with shops and beach is a 15 mins walk. Few things to improve : one of the bathroom had a strong sewage smell during all our stay - the A/C units are very loud specially the one in the living room - a shower in the pool area would be great - no personal welcoming message or a special touch from the landlord, it felt very impersonal

Response from VrboOwner on 21 July 2023
Thank you for your review as feedback always helps to continually improve the property. However, there are some issues in your review which could so easily have been rectified. Also, I assume that there is a language difficulty in translation of French to English as I think the word ‘simple’ in the review heading is most certainly not an accurate word to describe the villa, as can be seen in all previous reviews. I am most surprised about the report of a smell in one bathroom as you did not report this to me during your stay and you had both my telephone number and email. It is very difficult for me to do something if I do not know about it. I have spoken to my house manager, Telma, and she says that when she visited you that you did mention it but you said that it was fine and not to worry about it. You also sent me an email during your stay, through VRBO, regarding your luggage staying at the villa until your flight time, which we were happy to oblige, but you did not, at this or any other time, mention any other issues. It was certainly never reported as a complaint. No such issue had been reported by the previous guests before you arrived nor by the guest staying at the villa after you left. Also no smell was reported by the maids who thoroughly clean the villa before the arrival of new guests. We work extremely hard to ensure that the villa is always 100%. I am always available by telephone and email should my guests wish to contact me. Moreover, I have an exceptional house manager in Telma who has worked with me for many years. She visits all guests during their holiday to check that everything is in order and she is contactable at all times. There is also a housebook with a welcoming letter for all guests plus helpful information. We provide many personal touches as outlined above plus a complimentary pack to save guests time and money on their arrival. Again, I am sorry that you felt that you had cause to raise these issues in your review but hope that I have adequately answered them.

Lovely villa and nice Algarve town

Very smooth check-in with good detailed directions from Faro. The house is smart, well-kept and comfortably fits 8 people. Beds all big and comfy. Water pressure in showers good. The air con and pool meant we never over-heated. Nice quiet location up the hill from town. Going to the local beach from the villa is a challenging walk for older and younger guests - very steep in parts. Beach is also pretty busy in the summer, but they all are. Easy drive to other beaches. Communication and assistance with the manager and owner was good regarding a previously broken oven and replacement. Lovely place lovely stay

Fantastic Villa in an Excellent Location

We booked this villa last minute having cancelled a previous booking due to Covid restrictions. The villa is in a superb position, easy walk into Carvoeiro's Restaurant Hill with off road parking. Inside, the four bedrooms have loads of hanging space and plenty of hangers (even my husband commented!) and beds were comfy. Window shutters provided darkness at night so no need for eye masks ! All en-suits spacious and clean with fantastic showers.. Downstairs was a spacious and well equipped kitchen which opened out onto a gorgeous swimming pool. Also plenty of sun loungers and seating areas. All in all would highly recomend this villa and would love to stay here again

A vacation you won't forget so quickly

We have just spent 14 wonderful days in this beautiful house. Everything was as described in the description. Even small problems were dealt with immediately. In 20 years in Portugal I have never had such a smooth experience. Big thanks to Louella and Thelma who did a great job. Everything was perfect from the cleanliness to the final finish. New Grilltodt, new cutting boards, even the knives were new. I've really never experienced it like that before. 5 stars and many thanks to you!

Fabulous Stay in Villa Louella

Villa Louella is a lovely, well located property 10 minutes walk from restaurants, bars and shops. The accommodation was great with plenty of room for all of our family party of 7. The pool which we had heated for our stay was well used by everyone adding to the enjoyment of our holiday. I would strongly recommend Villa Louella for other family groups wishing to stay in the lovely resort of Carveiro.

really enjoyed this villa, the owner has quite clearly put a lot of thought, time and effort into the design, construction and finishing of the property. The manager called in a couple of times to make sure we were happy and that everything was working. The pool was great, we paid the additional for the pool to be heated, which was worth every penny.

We were greeted by the maid and manager who were most helpful and showed us around the villa.The food parcel was great so we could relax by the pool with a beer before heading out for the evening.The area is ideal for families and people of all ages. A choice of beaches with beach bars and restaurants.The weather was fantastic and although we did not use the car to go into Carvoeiro it was so convenient to explore the area along the Algarve coast.We also visited the Zoo Marina and Slide & Splash water slide park only 5 mins drive from Carvoiero both were good days out.
