The Villa was very clean and comfortable. The pool area had plenty of sun loungers but only two umbrellas. Would definitely need more. The location of the villa was very remote. Every taxi ordered had a lot of difficulty in finding us.

Great property - unfortunately too secluded for us, car essential and traffic noise was irritating. Paula was brilliant and very easy to contact. The pool was excellent though there was some confusion about the pool heating- Vrbo assured me when I booked that it was included in total price which I confirmed over the phone but owner said it had to be booked and paid for

We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others. It’s a very spacious villa both inside and outside. Check in was easy and the property is well equipped and clean. We would have given the villa 9/10 but the proximity of the A22 motorway (less than 150m away) did detract from the tranquility of the location.

We received a warm welcome from Paula, who showed us around on arrival. The villa was beautiful, with spacious air-conditioned bedrooms which were all en suite. There was a large kitchen, a large dining table, and very comfortable lounge, which meant we could spread out or come together as a family and socialise comfortably. The pool was fantastic. The patio area benefited from two large pergolas, which offered a shaded place to sit with comfy outdoor sofas. There was also a large sunshade by the pool with good-quality sun loungers. The villa was very clean and well-stocked with everything we needed for a great holiday. The hosts have taken care in choosing good quality mattresses and bedding for a great night's sleep. The kitchen had every pot, pan, and utensil required, should you wish to cook. The villa was in a secluded area, which meant it was very peaceful. There were good road links nearby which meant the villa was a great base for exploring the Algarve. Tavira and all its shops and restaurants are a short drive away. I would recommend hiring a car if you were to stay. We did a mixture of exploring the area as well as making the most of the villa's facilities. The photos don't do this villa justice; it's a real gem, and a credit to its hosts.

Fantastic villa!

Just returned from a family holiday at this beautiful villa. We had plenty contact from Paula with directions and times and she met us there. Facilities were excellent and everything thought of to make a great stay. Rural location so car needed which suited us perfectly. Very modern and stylish decor inside and great pool area. Would highly recommend and hoping to return.

Fantastic set up, great location

Only half-hour ish from the airport, 15mins drive to pretty much any local attraction. Property was very large for a 4 bedroom place. It was well presented, modern and in good condition. The traffic noise seemed to fade in the afternoon (which may be down to wind or heat or something else sciencey). It bothered us at first but then we forgot about it. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful, clean and well equipped villa with A/C, which was most welcome in the very hot weather during our stay. Villa has a lovely pool and is very conveniently situated near the bustling town of Tavira. The only downside is its location close to the A22 and the associated traffic noise.

Fantastic villa, semi rural location but close to facilities

Lovely spacious villa, with four good sized bedrooms, 3 of which have large double beds, the fourth room has 2 single beds. All rooms had aircon, lovely en-suite bathrooms, shutters on the windows (which helped keep the rooms cool) and plenty of storage. Well equipped kitchen, large fridge freezer with an ice maker and drinking water, good quality bed linen and plenty of towels, including pool/beach towels. The patio area is lovely (but in need of a little attention) with plenty of pool chairs, loungers, bbq area etc. Although some loungers were looking a little tired and two were broken, we advised our contact and it was sorted out almost immediately and a new larger parasol was provided, which was very much appreciated. Not the owners fault but there are a lot of dogs around who think they are cockerel’s, as they did like barking together, in unison, at dawn. Although it’s a rural location, it’s close to the motorway, so you did get a bit of traffic noise, it didn’t bother us that much. Tiny tip - Take plenty of mosquito repellent and close windows before the sun goes down. Our contact (Paula) was extremely helpful and the welcome pack of breads, cheese and meats etc, after a long day of travelling and late evening arrival was amazing and really appreciated. We would definitely return, lovely villa indeed.

Lovely Villa

The villa was very spacious and well equipped. Beds were comfortable. We asked for a new frying pan and some more logs, as it was cool the first couple of evenings, and were very impressed when these were brought promptly. The pool and terrace were also very large. Unfortunately we could hear traffic at all times as there is a motorway/main road nearby. We were also hugely disturbed during the day and through the night by barking dogs which I appreciate is not the owner’s fault but feel he should try to address this with the dogs’ owners. Overall we had a lovely time.

Spacious, well appointed villa with large pool

Spacious, well equipped and clean villa located in the countryside only minutes from Tavira. Very comfortable. We were only two but the four en- suite bedrooms makes it ideal for a large famlly or group. Beautiful large pool and lots of outside seating space - shaded or open. Communication with the owner was fast and helpful. Paula, who speaks good English, was very flexible with the check-in and we appreciated the generous welcome 'pack'. We would love to return and have no hesitation in recommending a stay here.

Secluded high quality villa

My husband and I stayed at the spacious Villa Laurinha with another couple. We both had large, beautifully decorated en-suite bedrooms with patio doors to the pool area. There were a further 2 en-suite bedrooms with windows rather than patio doors. The owners have done much to make it a home from home with candles, books, maps and kitchen essentials. The modern interior is complimented by the very large veranda area, where we ate outside, and patio leading to the large pool. The land around the villa is full of lovely plants. If we come back to Tavira we’ll definitely book this villa again.

Wonderful villa

It is a large villa, the quality is so good you can tell it is regularly visited by the owners as a second home and not just for rental. A car is a must! But it is then only a short drive to many picturesque villages with lots of bars and restaurants, beaches etc etc. I found both the owner and manager to be most helpful from start to finish. Our return flight was at 9pm, so requested a late checkout - as no-one had booked the following day this was not a problem. This made our last day so much easier than if we had to check out at 10am. We left around 5pm!! When we arrived I sent a text to let the manager know we were just getting some shopping and expected time of arrival. Again, most helpful - he advised that getting shopping as soon as you arrive can be a sign to thieves as the weight of your luggage lowers the suspension of the car and the thieves wait for you to enter the supermarket and then steal your suitcases. So bearing this in mind he checked to see if the villa was ready, it was, so he suggested we go to the villa first, drop off our suitcases and then get our shopping. I also found that having a supply of cleaning products including washing powder was great. Often you have to buy a full pack and you probably only need a couple of capsules. A wonderful American fridge freezer - with ice and chilled water - my husband now wants one!! He also wants the Dolce Gustos coffee maker - they left the pods for us too - very nice! Outside is very spacious with 5 tables in total - one at the front, 2 on the raised patio, one just in front of the raised patio and one by the pool. You can chose to sit in the sun or shade as there is always a table in either. There were also 8 sunloungers (at least) and towels were provided for both by the pool and bathroom use. You can climb the stairs to the roof terrace - great views. The pool is large! There are 4 bedrooms and each is on suite - the bathrooms are very modern and clean - good quality! It was our first time to Portugal and I am so glad we chose this villa - we will definately return
