Villa Nobre by The Portuguese Butler

The house has a great location near the beach. Everything was very clean and organized. Rui was very nice and gave us the attention and all the details to have a great stay.

The location was great, the rooms were spacious and the pool was the perfect size. The owner organised transfers which were great and we were allowed early check in.

The floors were quite dirty and the mop that was left was filthy so couldn’t use it to clean ourselves. The sunbeds and parasols could be upgraded, one sunbed had a big tear and there was quite a few stains on them. The parasol didn’t secure so on windy days it would blot across the outdoor area which was very dangerous. The steps into the pool are not secure and were very wobbly when using them, this wasn’t ideal as I was pregnant during my visit so the steps were needed.

Great property in a great location. Only downside was the sea gull overload which left the pool area a bit dirty. Rui and team were great hosts

The Villa was lovely and spacious. It was very clean and comfortable and the pool area was great to enjoy the sunshine although we didn’t get to use it much as the weather was still a little cool. Rui met us for checkin and walked us through everything and gave us keys. He supplied a bottle of wine for our checkin as well. It had all the necessities that we needed for our stay. The location was close to the beach and restaurants for walking. There were small supermarkets and ATM’s just around the corner.

A couple of minor items. The hot water was a little sporadic but we are assuming it was supplied by the tanks on the rooftops and maybe there is no hot water heaters. The weather was cool so it would have been nice to have a good hot shower but understandable that it is not typical in Portugal and Spain to have this luxury at all locations :-) The kitchen was fairly well equipped although there were no dish towels or hand towels in the kitchen so we used a lot of paper towel. There were a few utensils that would have been handy like a spatula, but we got by. And just to be aware of, it is located in a neighbourhood with local residence as well, not all big resorts around the property. There were some dogs barking at night but otherwise pretty quiet.

Pool was Amazing!

The pool area is great. Loads of room around the pool for sunbathing. The pool is a very good family size. Poolside shower a bonus. All the rooms are a good size.

There wasn’t anything that we didn’t like.
