Villa holiday rentals in Vila Verde de Ficalho

Fabulous space for a large family holiday. The swimming pool is excellent and the surroundings very tranquil

The accomodation was fantastic and plenty of space for 4, could easily have had an extra person stay no problem. Good kitchen facilities and all communication was clear 😀 would stay again!

It was an extraordinary vacation. Sandra was very attentive whenever we talked to her and had a lovely check-in with Benvinda, who showed us the house and gave tips of restaurants and places to visit. a charming person. The house is very beautiful, well decorated, with everything we need in terms of kitchen, toilet, and a barbecue in which we made wonderful grills. The air conditioner is precious, the house is very comfortable even on the hottest days. At night we would see the stars on the lounge chairs(we love astronomy and the sky is wonderful). The neighbors were attentive and very friendly, a thank you to the Alentejo hospitality.

This place was wonderful and quiet with beautiful views from sunset to sunrise you see it all happening. It's a must having a car for local grocery as its about 6min drive to any of the main supermarkets. Beaches are near by as well about 20 to 30min drive depending on the one you want to go to. I would rebook again in the future as my family loved it too.

We really enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable house in peaceful surroundings. As well as beach walks, relaxing in the garden, enjoying barbecues, and swimming even though it was early in the season, we took Ubers to visit Tavira and Castro Marim. Hired bikes from Abilio Bikes and had a wonderful ride on quiet lanes around Tavira going past the salt pans and passing through beautiful scenery. We found Manuel's house a lovely place for a relaxing holiday and having quality family time.

Wonderful villa to use as the base for exploring the area. The house is fully equipped for anything you need, the bbq grill by the pool was super nice and on top of it all we had a welcome basket which demonstrates nicely how the hosts care about their guests. We’d come back without hesitation.

Lovely private villa in quiet traditional village. Spotlessly clean and with all the equipment needed. Hosts very helpful with requests. Would recommend and would definitely return. Thanks

Thank you again for your time. We were pleasantly surprised. Although we realize that the house and garden need some (small) improvements. We are sure that it is temporary, and we will certainly consult Smartavillas again in the future. Thanks again!

Abel has been attentive at all times, spacious house, good garden, ideal for going to enjoy your vacation with friends or family.

As a group of 12 friends we had a great stay at the villa. It is a beautiful house with a big, comfortable outside area to hang out. Only the water in the pool was a bit cold and the wifi connection not always best, but overall we really enjoyed our stay and can only recommend the villa to others.

Excellent off season vacation. We were visiting friends in Huelva and Portugal so we decided to stay in El Rompido. The home is beautiful, we would have loved to have used the swimming pool but it was too cold. It is 30 min to Huelva and 1 hr to Faro, Portugal. The house is great for a group, upstairs is open and guests can live comfortably downstairs. We would definitely stay here again! Gate staff were very friendly as well.

A hidden gem. This was by far the best Airbnb experience my family and I have ever had. Andrea and Andreas were delightful hosts. They live on the property in a neighboring house and were attentive to all our needs throughout the stay. This is a special property. It's located approximately 1 hour 50 minutes drive from Lisbon. We flew in and rented a car. The drive there was beautiful, taking small roads through the olive and cork groves of the Portuguese countryside in Alentejo. Upon arriving, you enter a complete escape from reality on this ancient farm. Andrea and Andreas have a working olive oil production facility (tour it!), and many of their trees are 1000+ years old. There are also several cork trees. Sheep graze between the trees, moving about the property throughout the day. Chickens lay fresh eggs daily, and you can also pick your own lemons. The pool has several floats as well as a mini bar that Andreas keeps well-stocked. Local restaurants do a great job with take-out.

The house is more than you expect. we never really used the house just for sleep, the outdoor area are a dream. Pool is amazing , the garden work is amazing, the BBQ area outside has everything needed . The perfect family holiday just happened !! 9 min drive to the supermarket. is in a remote area but we love that.

It was all great from the time of booking to checkout. The host, Ana, was super sweet and available. We felt at home!

Accessible house, very quiet neighborhood, main road and highway close, the city of Albufeira is 15-20 min away. Faye and Kirk are very nice and responsive to all requests and they are very very discreet or even invisible despite the fact that they live next door The accommodation is very clean and the bedding is excellent. Everything is available, you feel at home and the pool is beautiful. I recommend it 100%.

Excellent property and location. We loved the pool, there is plenty of room for a family to settle in well. Very well-kept apartment exactly as shown in the photos, the cleanliness was impeccable! Sérgio was an excellent host, attentive from start to finish, we will certainly be happy to come back other times!

David and his partner were lovely hosts and made us feel very welcome and comfortable during our stay. We had everything we needed. Early risers will catch them in the morning watering the beautiful plants in front of the house and cleaning the pool for us. The house and grounds were so big and spacious. It’s an old quirky space but everything is clean and works - If you’re tall you might bang your head on a few doorways :) The location is remote so you can see the Milky Way on a clear night from the rooftop and the silence is lovely. You only hear nature and the sounds of birds and chickens throughout the day. You need a car to get around. Beaches are from 25mins drive away. There’s not anywhere you could walk to but we went for morning runs around the residential lanes and road. The pool is a great size and sunloungers comfortable. There is A/C but some nights were cool and so you don’t need it. Recommend for families as there are also games around the house and no WiFi so kids spent less time on phones and computers and more time in the pool! :)

A group of 8 of us stayed at Villa Rita. It was very easy to jump in an Uber from Faro airport and go straight there. Our villa manager, Ausenda, was very helpful from the start. She sent all the villa info well in advance and also sent lots of recommendations for shops, restaurants, beaches. She was also really easy to contact if we needed any help. The only thing to note for anyone booking in the future - the supermarket is about a 15/20 minute walk and it’s not a large supermarket. There are lots of Aldi’s/Lidl’s which are about 10 mins in an Uber, this is a better option. It’s also quite remote (which was perfect for us) but maybe not ideal if you want to be in close walking distance to shops or restaurants. We also got an Uber eats food shop delivered so this is also an option. We are already excited to book again next year and won’t hesitate to come back.

Finca Fotea is so great, that the leaving moment is very, very difficult. If you are looking for a place with sunny and stable weather, big space for living, great 24h pool (enough big and deep), fast internet connection, where you can rest being not in crowded touristic city and from the other hand you are very close to Algarve in Portugal and Spanish coast – Finca Fotea will be a best place for you. First of all we would like to thank our host Tania and her Team. They made a really home atmosphere and helped us very quickly, when it was necessary. We had huge space for living in the very well equipped and clean house. The internet connection was very good. The pool is really big (ca. 4m x 12m) and enough deep (ca. 1,5-2m). There is no time limits for pool usage, so we swam even at the midnight with pool lighting. From the house entry we saw every day the ocean. From the other hand, that was a great place to reach many places in Algarve/Portugal and Spain. We rested and calmed down.
