Villa Maresia by Algarve Holidays

Location was superb, close to beautiful beach, supermarket and a handful of restaurants. Area around villa very peaceful.

The location is amazing, two minute walk from beautiful Galé beach! The villa is huge, spacious, good sized bedrooms all with a bathroom! The games room is fantastic, table tennis, pool table, darts and table football. Kids loved it. The pool and outdoor area is excellent and I loved the lemon tree and patio to the rear. Electric shutters on every window make for cool rooms but there is air con. Plenty of cutlery and equipment for a home from home feel!

The beds are quite hard. The area is residential and a lot of local people were doing building and maintenance work on villas which disturbed the peace most days sadly. The breakage deposit is a clause to watch for, I had to chase the refund and I think it is an excessive amount held for an unreasonable duration.

Location is great - very short walk to the beach, restaurants, and to an amazing supermarket. Property itself was very well set up for our needs - lots of space, child-friendly for the younger kids (stair gates, and baby-friendly table-ware), and for older kids and adults with a games room, and a nice pool! Local beach is very good - sandy, clean, good facilities, and has surf/SUP rental/lessons. A short drive then into ZooMarine water park, Albufeira, or the Algarve shopping. And of course, the locals are very nice.

Property could use a little TLC, but this didn't detract from the experience in any way.

The location of the property was brilliant very close to the beach and a few restaurants. The pool was good with plenty of space for sunbathing and there was a games room if required. A couple of minutes walking distance to Apolonia Supermarket which was very handy.

The property looked a little tired from the outside could do with a coat of paint and the BBQ area at the back of the property the paint was peeling off the walls and the area around the trees was very unkept. We had problems with some of the locks on the doors and one of the shutters was not working correctly. They did come to the property to assist us but we feel further attention would be required to resolve the issues.

Great location close to beaches, cafes and restaurants and excellent supermarket. Staff easy to contact and helped sort any problems.

Beds not the most comfortable and outside dining area disappointing being close to external air con unit.
