The Villa is clean, spacious and within a short walk of 2 restaurants. There is an Aldi 5 mins drive away where you can stock up on everything you will need for your break. The immediate village is quiet but UBER works perfectly to travel to some of the surrounding restaurants. ##### Paul L. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John E. 12 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great property for a family holiday We all (8 adults and 4 children) loved this property - spacious and well laid out for a holiday villa. Very clean and with everything we needed for a comfortable week's stay. The pool was great and in constant use! We only needed to contact the owner once (the water supply was interrupted for a couple of hours) but he was straight on the case and it was soon sorted. A few tiny bits of minor maintenance needed - but nothing that an hour with a screwdriver and a packet of screws wouldn't fix. Good location about 5 minutes walk from the beach with several restaurants nearby. Overall - highly recommended. Well worth the money. ##### John E. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Louise S. 8 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a great stay at Villa Marazul. There were a few issues at the start of our stay (broken sunbed, missing air hockey disc, broken pool umbrella etc) but these were quickly sorted out by Afonso. The villa was very clean on our arrival and is very spacious, comfortable and well furnished. The air conditioning is very effective. Plenty of sunbeds and dinner seating for everyone. We all loved the pool area but be warned that night time sprinklers will soak anything left out on the washing line, sun beds etc. Also, that access to the pool is through the front double doors - remember to put the door key in the outside lock or you will get locked out. The spacious kitchen is well stocked with equipment, crockery and cutlery. However, absolutely nothing is provided in the way of basic condiments, kitchen roll, oil etc. Not even salt and pepper. You will need to shop for everything you are likely to need or bring from home. Only one toilet roll was provided in each of the bathrooms, but there was no handwash, soap, shampoo, shower gel etc. In these respects, we thought the amenities were lacking.Also, we followed the instructions in the villa handbook and put all the towels in the utility ready to be collected on the Wednesday. We subsequently found out that this does not happen during the summer months and ended up washing all the towels ourselves.All in all, a great choice for a family holiday but lacking the luxury touches. ##### Louise S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah D. 30 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic villa for large family! We have stayed in this villa before and have booked it again for next year - what more needs to be said… We travel as a group of 9, 6 adults and 3 children. The villa is a lovely size so there is plenty of space for everyone. The games room and pool are always well used by the children. The villa is clean and well maintained and the outside space is lovely. A short walk takes you into the local village and there are plenty of cafes and restaurants to choose from. A short drive to Gale beach - one of our favourites! The property owners live in another villa close by and are extremely pleasant. Communication during booking and arrival is always good. The cleaning team are also wonderful. We are looking forward to our stay again next May! ##### Sarah D. Stayed 14 nights in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ken D. 31 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Good salt pool, But poor customer care. The villa is beautiful, great pool and dining area. Minor issues with keys and door handles. Also the drive out to the main road is tricky- be careful! Just one poor point is that we left some clothing items behind, I asked the host to send them to me at my cost but he never replied to my request, very poor customer service! For this reason I would not return or recommend this property. ##### Ken D. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynn F. 31 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic holiday Just returned from two weeks at Villa Marazul. We were a family party of 6 adults and four children aged 8-12\. The villa was spacious, clean and was well equipped. We certainly made use of the dishwasher and washing machine! Lots of crockery, cutlery and glasses etc. only a two slice toaster but as we all tended to get up at different times this never posed a problem. Well furnished and the beds were very comfortable. The outside area is stunning the pool was well used as was the games room. I think the only thing that could have improved our stay would have been extra fridge space. There is a full sized fridge freezer in the kitchen but with 10 people trying to keep food, drinks, water and the odd bottle of beer cold we did have to move things around a bit. An extra fridge in the games room to store overflow water and drinks etc would have been very handy but this wouldn’t stop us returning. From start to finish our dealings with owner were excellent. He answered all our question beforehand promptly and patiently and also during our stay (thank you Afonso for being so understanding when the kids accidently locked the key to the games room inside) I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this villa to anyone. The location is excellent, the beach is walkable but if you’re going for the day there are carparks and road parking all free. Some lovely local restaurants and obviously lots in Albufeira and also Vale de Parra. ##### Lynn F.

Loads of space, clean, beautiful grounds. Pool and games room superb. 8 adults and 4 children stayed in the villa for a family birthday celebration. Plenty of room for us all, bonus having an en suite for every bedroom!! Very clean villa and grounds, which were beautiful, we even had cleaners come in during our stay to change towels. Pool towels were also provided. The pool was amazing, such fun was had by all. And the games room was a huge hit. We did not hire a car and managed fine. The nearest beach is about 30min walk away. We did this once, was beautiful but preferred the villa!! There were 3 very nice restaurants near by, 5mins walk, Prima Pasta was one, another next door which really was amazing!! There isn't a huge amount to do in the immediate location apart from these restaurants. There are a couple of bars and eateries in main Vale de Parra about 30mins walk away. One night we got a taxi to Albuferia old town, 15mins drive, 10euro in taxi. The only thing I would say is the villa could do with a bigger barbeque. Was only small and was extremely difficult to cater for 12 people on this. From initial enquires about the villa to the day we left it really was a top class service. If I had any questions, before or even during our stay, there was always a quick response. I felt that we were very much looked after. I would definitely recommend this Villa. ##### Loraine J.

Een heel belangrijk punt was de dat we geen gebruik konden maken van de service handdoeken en bedlakens wisselen en schoonmaak ( zie regel 6,7,8 ) van Aanvullende inforimatie alleen tegen betaling. dat we de elektriciteit 1128.00 moesten betalen stond niet in de aanbieding dus dat was een hele grote afknapper. doordat de deuropener van het speelkamer defect was is het niet mogelijk deze ruimte te betreden. Ondanks deze problemen willen we kijken of we de accommodatie voor ons weer in aanmerking kan komen voor ons hopelijk overwintering eind van 2025 ##### Tjaard U.
