Had a lovely time villa is well looked after inside and out, gardens in particular are fantastic. Beaches within reasonable walking distance as are shops. Pool was fantastic although the younger children weren't keen as it wasn't heated and is rather deep so we used a paddling pool for them. This wasn't an issue for the rest of us who used the pool daily. ##### Ashley R. ### 4/10 Poor #### Sonja D. 27 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### perfect stay – but still waiting for deposit after 6 weeks Me, my husband and elderly parents had a great time at Villa Isabel. We found everything we needed in the house and especially enjoyed watching the sunset from the upper balcony. BUT: Six (!) weeks ago we left the house in perfect conditions and still haven't received a refund of the deposit. Please get back to us about that. Thanks & kind regards! ##### Sonja D. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2021 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Keith 12 Oct 2021 #### Holiday Accomodation The space,size of rooms and the location. The locks on the patio doors, and the shower door in upstairs bedroom, as water escapes under the door and all over the floor. ##### Keith This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Caroline N. 2 Oct 2017 #### Nice villa but needs some TLC Quite location, a few nice restaurants nearby and villa is close to bus routes. Recommend the Tapas bar on the main road. Villa interior is dated some of the furniture is old and it smelt old! The fridge was not efficient, took forever to get anything cold, in fact I dont think we had a nice cold drink the whole stay. The beds were atrocious, all the mattresses need replacing none of us had a good sleep during our stay, on the up, the pool and sunbathing area was lovely so was the downstairs shower. Everything you needed in the kitchen was there. And the grounds were well kept. We would go back to this villa if it was given a bit of TLC. ##### Caroline N. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Graeme M., Northallerton 18 Sept 2017 #### The villa was very clean and well maintained throughout including the gardens Can't fault it, the villa had everything we needed and was a great base for doing things in and around Albufeira. I would definitely recommend this property ##### Graeme M. Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Alison P. 2 Aug 2017 #### Lovely holiday We had a lovely holiday in Villa Isabel. It was clean and well equipped. The garden and pools were particularly lovely. A gardener came and tended to the garden and cleaned the pool during our 7 day stay. The villa was cleaned mid week and the towels changed. The towels were the only thing we felt let the villa down, they were small and quite thin. The WiFi was great and very useful to have it. It was also great having such efficient air conditioning, although it's a shame it isn't in the 3rd bedroom which did get very hot during our stay. The villa is is in a quiet residential area about 15 minutes walk to Appolina Supermarket and bars and restaurants. We were very happy with the service we received from Algarvevillaholidays and wouldnt hesitate in using them again. ##### Alison P.
