Villa holiday rentals in Vale de Centianes

What a fantastic week! We stayed at Villa Luz 37 – Terrace, Jacuzzi & Swimming Pool in Albufeira from May 27th to June 3rd and what a wonderful experience it was! Communication with Guilherme was exceptional: fast, friendly, and always helpful. The villa exceeded our expectationsL: spacious, stylish, and fully equipped with everything we needed. We truly enjoyed the jacuzzi, the swimming pool, and the peaceful terrace. The hospitality, facilities, and service were outstanding. A well-deserved 9 out of 10 and honestly, it could have been even higher. Thank you, Guilherme, for an unforgettable stay!

Our stay at this villa was fantastic! The new outdoor kitchen was amazing, and the heated pool made it extra special. The Arkeo team went above and beyond, even installing a fence to keep our small child safe from the stairs. The location is perfect, and the elevator was incredibly convenient for our luggage. One thing that really stood out is how much better the villa feels in person—it’s elegant and understated in the photos, but the space, design, and atmosphere are even more impressive when you’re actually there. Although our stay was too short, we can’t wait to come back for a longer visit. Highly recommend this villa for a luxurious stay in Quinta do Lago!

Villa is absolutely beautiful exactly like it is in the photos highly recommended, Would definitely stay here again villa is only a few minutes from the town by car. Everything you could possibly wish for in the kitchen, right down to a third fridge in the outside barbecue area. We stayed with friends, as 2 families so eight in the villa and had plenty of room. also separate areas for all of us so it never felt like we was all on top of each other I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of staying here Till the next time 😎

We really enjoyed our stay. The villa layout and outside space was very sociable. We were a family of 7, children aged from 21 to 26. Perfect position in a beautiful town, lots of lovely eatery’s and shops. The beds were all comfortable, there was plenty of hot water for showers and the villa was very private. There is a construction site over the wall and on one day it was quite noisy and dusty but the rest of the week it did not bother us. Table tennis and the pool table were a bonus for a bit of family competition. Fabio was very helpful. Some more basics in the house such as salt and pepper, an extra w.c roll or two etc would have been appreciated and compared to other places we have stayed it was a little limited. Generally the whole family said we would definitely consider coming to Casa Barbara again. The construction site did not put us off. Thanks Fabio

We had an indescribably beautiful time with Rosa and her great family. Everyone felt so comfortable. A beautiful accommodation in an absolute dream location! Very quiet and yet a stone's throw from the city, the sea and surrounding activities. We actually didn't want to leave :-) The communal garden is fantastically laid out, our children loved it. The pool terrace, the panoramic view of the mountains and the sea, over Lagos - everything was really beautiful and the photos can't describe it. It's just even more beautiful in reality :-) The tips we got were all great and Rosa is a great host with so much heart and soul! Thanks again from the heart! I'm sure we'll be back!

Perfect quiet location with every amenity at the property, pool is superb and the villa is modern and extremely clean and well thought out, we particularly liked the covered kitchen area to the rear with its own fridge and BBQ

amazing villa. had such a great 5 days here. villa is stunning and hosts were excellent. swimming pool was a lovely temperature and villa was exactly as described. we would love to stay there again! only slight negative was it was very hot and although there was no air conditioning.(which we were aware of) the fans in the bedrooms could be a bit better!

We were two families and had a great time! The house is spacious, well equipped and the sea view with the fantastic sunsets was a highlight. The beach is within walking distance. The only point of improvement would be air conditioning - otherwise everything was perfect. We would come back anytime!

Gorgeous villa, Everything was well thought out and there was everything you could have possibly needed . Stunning entrance and views huge pool, loads of seating areas. This place is not to be missed . 5 mins taxi to new or old town or marina, 30 mins to vilamoura. A very special place indeed

Exceptional setting, quality home with hosts with onions (French expression😂! ) We are fortunate not to have shared the facilities because we were almost alone on the premises: Hammam, Jacuzzi, Massage , pool , Sauna 😍 The Villa is isolated from the rest of the city but ⚠️ be careful there are 2 or 3 additional lodges. In any case Mitchel and Selina are really great, respond quickly to the group's questions, adapt very quickly too and are smiling and full of nice little touches: breakfast several times, welcome beers etc ... Thanks again to them And I can't wait to come back in a few years to see the improvements that have been made to this little corner of heaven 🥰

The villa was absolutely beautiful. It looked exactly like the photos. It accommodated 6 adults and 2 children comfortably. Whilst we were there the towels were changed, beds were stripped, pool cleaned, gardens maintained. The villa is very well cared for. Agree with other reviews that you either need a car or be prepared to get a taxi (7 euros to the marina). The walk is doable but part of it is along a quick road with blind corners and no pavement. We didn’t feel safe doing it. We had one issue that was dealt with - thank you for the responsive communication. Thank you for the welcome drink left in the fridge. We were met personally on arrival and could check in early due to a morning flight. We would 100% stay here again and recommend.

Honestly, I can’t say enough about Ana on how she went above and beyond to make my weekend celebrating my birthday and bachelorette with my friends special! She went as far as to in on the surprise to ensure that I was completely blown away! The villa is spectacular and my only regret is the number of balloons we left lying around when we left (sorry Ana). The rooms were spacious, immaculately clean, great convenient location with a grocery store and cafes nearby. Also wasn’t too far to get to the main strip! I highly recommend booking this gorgeous villa!

Ilka was a great host! We really enjoyed our time there

We stayed at this property for three nights with my children and parents, and it was perfection. Everything was brand new and top quality. You could tell there was a lot of attention to detail when designing / refurbishing the space. Stefanie was super-responsive and it was a breeze getting in and checking-out. We hope to stay there again when it warms up so we can use the breathtaking pool area. 10/10.

Villa was perfect for our family holiday, (4 adults & 2 infants) the layout of 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on the ground floor meant my daughter and granddaughters were right next to each other, we could also be close when by the pool. All rooms very spacious The Villa had all the amenities you would need for a family holiday, the pool area was very nice with various and colourful shrubs, pool was a great size too with steps into it, perfect for young infants. Location was perfect to walk into town for lunch/dinner, approx 10 mins and thats with 2 infants, beach was literally a mile away so only 25 minutes, with the addition of 2 new supermarkets just 5 minutes from the Villa. I would add, that some parts of the Villa are dated and could do with a bit of care but this doesnt mean it was not in a good condition. Communication all through the booking and how to enter Villa etc was 1st class We are already discussing booking again for next year and would highly recommend this Villa. Thanks

We had a wonderful weeks stay. Everyone was exactly as described. We arrived very late at night but found the villa so easily from the pin drop provided and so easy to access. We received very welcome recommendations for restaurants and activities and tried a number of these which were excellent. We would definitely return as we enjoyed the villa so much.

We had a lovely week’s stay at Villa Rocha. The Villa was clean and well equipped for our stay. The pool was heated to a great temperature and plenty of sunshine all day long. We found the location for us as a family was perfect. Not touristy at all which is exactly what we were looking for. You could walk to the local beach, there is some lovely cliff top walks to see the sunset and some restaurants within walking distance too. A small kiddies park is just opposite the Villa. We hired a car which made it very easy to reach other areas and explore the different towns.

We stayed for 2 weeks with a 6 month old and 2 year old. Perfect house for us. Loads of kids toys and equipment, including potty, plastic plates, cups and cutlery, blender, etc. The pool was lovely. House was super clean and had loads of space. Host very responsive to any questions we had. 15/20 min walk to old town where there are loads of nice restaurants. Few nice places nearby too. Close to a big supermarket. We mostly drove to the beach but it is walkable. Had everything we needed and it’s a lovely house, would definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our stay here. The villa was spotlessly clean and spacious and very comfortable. We appreciated the underfloor heating and heated towel rails. We know the area quite well so didn’t feel the need to book any trips with David. There was a small issue with being given the wrong codes for checking in so that held up the process. It was a lovely villa and we would stay there again.

Our stay at Vila G, Mira Luz was all that we had hoped it would be. The stunning views were not hard to take every morning over coffee. The accommodations were very comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. Walking distance to the beach and the little shops/restaurants. The area was quiet and well maintained with a gated community to feel safe and secure. We even survived the blackout ! Thank you for hospitality would definitely recommend.

The house is more than as described . The location is ideal with a superb beach less than 2km away and in the heart of the most beautiful beaches in Algarve . When the house is impeccable, beautiful living space, there is nothing to complain about . The 4 bedrooms are spacious and luxurious. The outdoor space is just as beautiful and well kept. Communication is fluid and responsive . Definitely recommend.

We had a lovely week here at the end of April! There was plenty of space for our family of 9 adults. The villa is private and peaceful and the views from the living area and balcony are amazing! We appreciated the fluffy towels in the bathrooms and the extra towels for pool use. A couple of bars and restaurants are in easy walking distance and we often walked to Ferragudo along the cliff path and beach. The villa is well located to visit other areas of the Algarve by car. Francisco was very helpful, allowing us to be flexible with the checking in and out times and recommending nearby restaurants.

We had a few days here and it was amazing, felt at home from the minute we walked in, we was with our 2 boys (13 & 10) and they had so much fun here as well as space for themselves when it was needed. The villa had everything, was exactly like the photos and is a great place to stay - you will need a car to get anywhere the nearest town was about 10-15 min away. Will definitely go back if we get the chance again. Loved it!! Thank you ❤️❤️

Had one of the best stays in Portugal in the villa. The host was super kind and helpful, welcomed us with fresh fruits🌟 A highly recommended place🤩
