Top 10 Villas in Portugal, Portugal

April 28, 2023 Nicolette Lion

Portugal’s Mediterranean charm is most prominent on the golden beaches of the Algarve; in the wilderness of the Azores islands; among the vineyards of Douro Valley; and on the cobbled streets of Lisbon and Porto, where old-world culture meets cosmopolitan bars and restaurants.

I choose this hotel for my wife's birthday. This is another side of the island where we live. Pestana looks like a small village across the green garden. We are very happy to celebrate birthday in this place. Very comfortable and homely atmosphere. Thanks

This was a lovely place to stay, nice and quiet and about 7mins drive to the town centre/beach which could also be seen from the balcony. The apartment was clean, had air con, WiFi, a TV, cooking facilities. Lovely pool and the food/drinks at the pool bar were excellent. The staff are very friendly and nice. No complaints whatsoever. In fact we did not need to attend the reception for anything during our stay. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay again. Thank you!

We stayed in this spa hotel at the end of our Portuguese Camino walk. We enjoyed a delicious dinner with excellent service in addition to a very good massage & a relaxing hour in the stunning thermal suite. The apartment was spacious for three people and the sofa bed was reasonably comfortable. It was the perfect end to our holiday.

Expectations defrauded

Reviewed By JJ_guimas

Unfortunately, our expectations were completely dashed!!! We asked and paid for a double room, exquisite as you would expect from the photos, and it turned out that we were presented with an annex outside the main house that had nothing to do with the rest of the decor and style of the place it promotes. Worse yet, was the disappointment with the breakfast. It is nothing like what they say at booking or promote on their site, nothing like in the pictures. As we were on the last shift, at 10am, there was practically nothing left to eat, the tables were mostly pre-occupied and therefore dirty to clean, and the staff in the kitchen bantering instead of replacing the things that should be in this "excellent breakfast". It was a big disappointment, unfortunately and certainly, we will not be back.

Colina Village

Wonderful holiday

Reviewed By sianmichellew

I can't sing the praises of this place enough. We are still here for another two days and wish it was longer. We booked a two bed apartment for our family of 4, children 3 and 8. It was spotless and just the right size with everything you need, just wish there was a washing machine (please look into putting these in) Maid cleaned our accommodation everyday except Sunday, never had so many clean towels. Bar staff are so friendly and after a few days knew my order. Close to the centre but also far enough away to be more chilled out. Children's pool and adult pool spotless, adult pool very deep 2.3m which my kids loved. Little play area with slides and swings. Great choice of food at the bar and restaurant. Would definitely look to rebook next year.

I had such a nice stay at Hello Villas. The villa were clean and really comfy. It’s really calm and you get your own parking spot. The staff is friendly and ready to help you. It was only missing some liquid soap for dirty dishes but otherwise, everything was perfect! I’d recommend It to anyone. It’s worth the price and the proximity with the city center by car or foot is appreciated!
