AMAZING VILLA, AIR CON, WI-FI, PRIVATE HEATABLE POOL & GAMES ROOM

Algarve Vacation is committed to working towards providing sustainable accommodation options together with our property owners, reflecting our commitment to environmental responsibility.

Villa Laguna is a charming 4-bedroom villa, sleeping 8 + 3 people, located in the sought after area of Sao Rafael, where a beach and a selection of restaurants and bars can be found within a short walk.

From the moment you open the art deco style doors, it is evident that this fabulous property has been designed with careful attention to detail. A contemporary, open-plan layout in the lounge and dining area is complemented by high quality furnishings to create a sophisticated atmosphere that resounds throughout the property. Upstairs, fitted wardrobes and chic furnishings in the bedrooms provide an effective contrast against the bold, cutting-edge designs in the bathrooms, while a stylish games room with table tennis, pool table and lounge area is available for your enjoyment on the lower floor. Outside, ample refuge from the midday sun is provided. A covered terrace complete with rattan lounge furniture overlooks the private heatable pool (pool heating available as an optional extra), and a covered dining area with a built-in barbecue is located to the side of the villa.

Villa Laguna is located in a quiet neighbourhood, just 900m from the Sao Rafael beach, with beach bars and restaurants within walking distance. Albufeira with its colourful marina, charming Old Town along Fishermen's beach and the strip, quality restaurants, pubs, shops, supermarkets and sparkling nightlife, is located within a 5 min. drive (2,5 km), which makes it ideal for families, couples and keen golfers as there are a couple of golf courses a few minutes’ drive away.

Great Albufeira Stay
Our stay was absolutely fantastic! The house was spotless, and all the essential amenities were thoughtfully provided. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to beautiful local beaches and charming restaurants. Having our own private pool was a wonderful perk, perfect for cooling off after a day of exploring. With a family of six, we found the space to be more than ample, offering plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax. The game room was a fun bonus that added to the overall experience. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay!

Very Pleasant Stay
The villa is very well equipped and had everything we needed. Shower towels and beach towels are provided so you needn't pack any. The pool was a little cold on day one and we paid to have it heated so by day 2 it was fine. There is plenty of spare bedding and pillows. The games room was lots of fun with a pool table and table tennis. Check in Process was seamless - there is a key pad outside the villa and management will let you know the code ahead of your arrival. We had a welcome visit the morning after we arrived who was lovely and had a wealth of knowledge about the villa and the area itself. We had her phone number and she was extremely responsive if we needed to make contact. Location - it's a 10-12 min walk to a small beach which has a beach bar. Lidl is around 10 mins in a car but Ubers are reliable and reasonably priced. There are a handful of restaurants within very close walking distance. Or you can go to the Marina for more restaurants which is around a 30 min walk. All food is amazing! The main town of Albufeira was 10-12 mins in a taxi. There are quite a few hills to contend with and one of our party struggles walking long distances but she coped pretty well so its not totally unbearable. The outside space is lovely - 8 sun loungers around the pool, lots of other seating and the grounds are well kept and beautiful. The villa also has a security alarm. In summary, we had a wonderful time and I would 100% recommend this villa.

Lovely villa but with a few extras would be excellent
The Villa was lovely, spacious, well equipped. The location was peaceful but within a short drive of the main town. The swimming pool and gardens were excellent. Just a couple of suggestions, some basic cleaning supplies would be appreciated and would enable guests to keep the property clean and tidy. More than 1 toilet roll per toilet isn’t that expensive and the guests would appreciate it I’m sure. Heating the pool is charged at a weekly cost even if you don’t heat it for the full week, this was disappointing and expensive. We did have a lovely stay but changing these little things would have made for a perfect stay.

Fabulous, spacious, spotless modern villa finished to a very high standard. Superb.
A glorious week with our family of 6 plus our 9 month old grandson. The pictures online don’t do the villa justice. It is huge and has loads of space for 8 people, let alone our 6 adults and a baby with a spare room we didn’t need. Beautiful grounds, 3 x dining tables 2 inside and one outside for dining, 2 living room areas 3 balconies and loads of space, sun beds and parasols. All appliances are Zanussi and everything works, with the added bonuses of every single window and French door having electric shutters for both security and sunshade during the day, with video entrance and alarm too, 5 star property, really good Wi-Fi and Meo Sky on the televisions too. Pool heating and even an electric sunshade if you need for the alfresco dining table next to the built in barbecue next to the pool. Great service from Carlos in a really good, quiet dead end street, 100yds from Seasons sports bar and a 15 minute walk to the lovely new marina. We are already looking at next year! Fantastic in every sense. Thanks VRBO and Algarve Vacations. 😀👍🌞 Keith.

Time Together
It was everything we needed to relax, recharge and have a great time getting together with plenty of room in and around the villa. We booked for nine and there was definitely enough space for us all- sadly only 8 sun beds. Lovely little beaches within walking distance, shops and sports bar at the end of the road. Shop lacked fresh salad type foods. So we did get an uba to Aldi for €8 and managed to get a big shop in to enable us to bring the cost down and get a better variety of food. It was great that a rep came out to the villa however it would have been helpful to have a welcome folder in the villa with local information and top tips. Would return, everyone had a lovely time.

Excellent stay
The contact with Olivia was great, right from the initial booking enquiry. The property was ideally located, about 35 mins drive from Faro airport, and was very easy to find. It took a phone call to work out the sliding door to gain entry for the car worked via remote control which was in the house, but was easily sorted. Very clean and comfortable house, with everything you could need. It was very spacious. We had the pool heated, which was definitely worth it in October. Walking distance to local shops, restaurants, the gorgeous beaches, and the marina in Albufeira, where there were more restaurants and bars. We hired a car, but won't bother next time as everything was so close. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic villa
As a family of 5 we spent a week here and were very impressed. The villa is larger than the photos suggest, very spacious in all of the rooms. The pool area is great and you can easily spend a whole day catching the sun. Location wise, a beach is 10 minutes walk away and it’s only a 10-15 minute drive into Albufeira Old Town. I must mention having not been to the Old Town for 14 years I was surprised at how tacky it is now. The villa on the other hand is in a quiet residential area and is much better in my opinion. We used Uber a couple of times to get around which was quick and efficient however there are numerous restaurants within walking distance and the ones we went to all served really good food. There is also a family friendly sports bar about 30 seconds from the villa which also has live music, good food and well priced beer. I would highly recommend this villa.

We were pleased that we were able to access the property when we arrived, which was a few hours before the usual check-in time. The villa had plenty of space for all of us, with decent size bedrooms and three bathrooms and a kitchen with everything we needed! The wifi worked well and there was a decent choice of TV channels. Will be booking this one again. Ideal for families.
