AMAZING VILLA WITH SEA VIEW, PRIVATE HEATABLE POOL, AIR CONDITIONING & BBQ

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

Villa Puerto Rico is a fantastic 3-bedroom villa situated in Galé, with a privileged location close to all amenities including Lourenço and Galé beach, some of the best golden beaches of the Algarve. Ideal for couples and families, the property is also a short drive from one of the jewels of Albufeira: a natural ecological reserve with wild fauna, flora, and one of the main spots for bird watching in their natural habitat, and is sure to provide the relaxing setting you seek for your holiday in the Algarve.

Villa Puerto Rico is equipped with free Wi-Fi and air-conditioning in all 3 bedrooms. Two double bedrooms, one twin bedroom and two bathrooms are located on the first floor, with wonderful balconies looking to the surrounding area. On the ground floor there is an additional bathroom and a bright, fully equipped kitchen, which includes all the appliances you may need for home cooking. The living / dining areas are airy and inviting, with lots of natural light brought in by patio doors and shutters, leading directly out to the pool area.

Outside, a wonderful private swimming pool (heatable as an optional extra) invites you to jump in or relax in the sun on the available sun loungers, and a traditional Algarvian BBQ allows you to prepare outdoor meals to be enjoyed al-fresco.

The property is in a quiet area near Galé, Albufeira with several restaurants, bars and supermarkets within a short walk (approximately 10 minutes). Also, within a short walk (about 15 minutes), are the beautiful beaches of Castelo, Evaristo and Lourenço. The beach town of Galé is a 15-minute walk away where you can find a variety of excellent restaurants, bars and shops and Albufeira is about a 10-minute drive away. The largest shopping centre in the area, Algarve Shopping (in Guia) is also about a 10-minute drive away.

Car Hire is not necessary, however if you want to hire a car, we can help you with your request.

The changeover day for this property is on Saturday.

**If your flights are booked or your dates are fixed and these do not match the changeover day, please send an enquiry to confirm that they can be accepted before making a booking.**

Pool Heating will always be an upgrade for your holidays, especially when travelling with children. The temperature of the water when the pool heating is activated will always be between 5ºC and 8ºC higher than if there was no pool heating.

ALGARVE RETREAT
Difficult to find since GPS coordinates are off a bit and the name on the front wall does not match the name on the listing. The unit is attractive, but sparsely furnished. It is located in a residential area within walking distance to CASTELO Beach and several restaurants.. The management company was very helpful and prompt in providing us with items that we were missing that should be provided in a rental.

Good value and well equiped.
The villa was clean, well presented and of a very high standard whilst at a very affordable price. If you plan on cooking during your stay, the villa offers plenty of utensils and a lovely dining table to eat from. If I was asked to give this a mark out of 5... I would give it 6 for value for money. The pictures on the website is what attracted me to the property, and it doesn’t fail in reality.

Beautiful Villa, quiet setting.
Absolutely beautiful villa, 3 good sized bedrooms all with air con 3 bathrooms. Lovely pool area. Very quiet area of Sesmarías. About 40 mins drive from Faró. Positives Pool area Villa Cleanliness Small library if you like to read Local restaurants 5 minute walk - the brassiere, Jompra and curry club & Irish bar 10 min walk to the beach Communication with letting agency Negatives A couple of broken sunbeds and a broken chair. The oven/cooker - in such a lovely villa the oven was from the 80’s If you had the air on on in the bedroom through the day it would drip onto the sunbeds by the pool We had an amazing holiday and would highly recommend it. Our 3 year old loved it too.

Lovely villa in a great location
We had a great time and the managers were brilliant before and during our stay. I Genuinely can't fault this holiday home! Our group was a mixture of family and friends aged between 5 and 49 years old and the villa was suitable for all of us. it is well equipped with everything you need for a happy holiday. The bedrooms are all spacious, comfortable and clean, and all have air conditioning… The surrounding area is beautiful and quiet the beach is about 10-15 minute walk away and there is a spar supermarket 10minutes away. Overall enjoyed our stay.

Very clean villa
Loved the villa, located near beaches and within easy distance in Uber to Alberfia.we felt the welcome pack was not very good money for €25 it should have been a bit more luxurious We had a problem with 1 of the metal shutters which still has not been resolved. Overall it was great, would definitely stay again.

Villa Puerto Rico
The property was nice with everything we needed, although not much around if you don’t have a car in terms of good traditional restaurants - but this resulted in us walking more- which was good. There was no one to greet us on arrival so we had a problem lighting the stove the first night:( Also there we no basic condiments, chopping boards or dishwashing clothes/liquid to get us started It was lovely to jump in the pool, which though small was essential for us .. I would also suggest some pool towels would be a good addition Otherwise though it was very pleasant and we had a very enjoyable stay.

Awesome Stay
We had an amazing vacation at the Villa. It was very comfortable for 6 guest with plenty of room so we weren't bumping into each other. The company was extremely helpful, even to the point of coming to pick us up when we got lost on our first day there. They also provided a person to help us plan our 2 week stay, suggesting excursions and places to drive to. I would highly recommend the villa and the company we dealt with..The Algarve Company.

nice villa, close to the beaches and amneties
Overall good. Well maintained property. Comfortable stay. Suggestions for improvement- The kitchen facilities could have been better. Cups, plates and other utensils were minimal. Some basic items like dishcloths etc could have been provided (as in other self catering properties we have been renting out over the decades).
