Ideal villa for an extended family holiday We had a full squad of 18. Old and young. The villa was great. We all loved the pool and it gives decent options for food, beach and water parks. You really do need a car. And I definitely heat the pool, it was well worth it. Recommended for sure.

Fantastic well equipped Villa We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Paris. It was so well equipped, the pool was lovely. Games room fantastic. All rooms were comfortable and so many bathrooms. Maid service was excellent as well . Would definately recommend staying here as location was good as well.

A stunning, well maintained fabulous huge Villa ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Villa Paris is AMAZING. The pictures do not do it justice. It is massive. There were 10 of us from 5-46 years and we all had a ball. The place was immaculate and the servicing team were so so good. We had a problem with the WiFi when we were there and the management team came straight away and worked on it for several hours and fixed it. They also helped us find taxis etc (Spikes taxis who were so good too). The kitchen was kitted out with every utensil/pot/pan that you could possibly ever need. Two huge fridges. The games room was huge and again fabulous. The pool area was perfect and out front was a lovely area to sit at night with two sun terraces up top of the house if you should need them. The men loved to bbq which too was a perfect set up. The house was very close to a gorgeous beach and two grrat supermarkets with fresh meat and fruit and veg. We couldn't say one bad word about the place. We will definitely go back. The Joyce and West Family

Wonderful Holiday This beautiful villa certainly has the WOW factor. There were 17 of us in our party - a mixture of ages from 4 to 74 and this villa accommodated us all. All the teenagers and older children were in the downstairs bedroom attached to the games room and they had a whale of a time. Lovely bedrooms and ensuites. The older generation had the two bedrooms on the ground floor. One bedroom had an ensuite and balcony to the pool and was beautiful. The other was next to a bathroom with patio doors leading to a seating area just around from the pool and, although adequate, was not as nice as the other bedrooms. The living area is unbelievable and the kitchen has two huge fridge freezers for all food and drink needs. The pool was to die for - we had it heated so that the young ones could play in it without getting cold and it was well worth it. Plenty of different shady areas if you wanted to sit and chill. Balconies and sun terraces galore. Beautifully kept gardens all around the villa and, although not huge, were perfectly adequate. Just a few little niggles - the annexe by the pool, although lovely, had insufficient ventilation and no air conditioning so we felt was unusable. We did try it one night but it was just too hot - also the door wouldn't lock. The area behind the villa is bowl shaped and therefore noise resonates. The cleaner did say to us on our first day "we must be tranquil" and although we are not a noisy family, there were 17 of us and obviously you can't help making some noise. Our first day we put on some low music (Frank Sinatra) by the pool and was respectfully asked to lower the sound by the neighbour at the back of us. This we obviously did but we did feel inhibited for the rest of the holiday, especially in the evening when having a barbecue and wanting some music on. I reiterate the music was not loud, blaring music and, if you are party people, this should be borne in mind. There's a more than adequate supermarket just down the hill and lots of bar/restaurants in the area. We found a beautiful coved beach just down the road with a lovely bar/café. We've been to Portugal many times and can honestly say this was one of the loveliest villas we've stayed in - would definitely recommend.

Stunning villa!! This was the second time we have stayed here, first time there were 10 of us and this time 13. There was ample space in this beautiful villa for all of us. This is the perfect place for a large family holiday.

The villa was very impressive and lived up to the photographs on the website. I would definitely recommend Villa Paris to my friends. It's ideally situated and easy to get to the restaurants and a short drive to the beach.

Absolutely amazing!!!! 15 of us stayed at villa Paris for a week at the beginning of June and had the best time. The villa had everything that you could possibly wish for and more. The pictures look amazing but still don't do it justice. It was beautifully clean with regular maid service and clean towels provided. We requested a second set of keys as often we went off to different places in groups and these were dropped off for us with no problem at all. The lady from the agency came to visit to make sure everything was ok for us and was extremely helpful and we really felt like nothing was too much trouble. It is located about a 5 minute taxi ride to the old town and about 10 minutes from zoo marine, both definitely worth a visit. There is a large supermarket called Oceano down the road and a large spar shop a little further along. When getting a taxi from somewhere back to the villa, we found it best to say villa Paris, near Oceano supermarket and up the hill and they all knew where to go from that description.

Wow! Amazing villa for large parties. Our party of four large families stayed very comfortably in this huge villa. The pictures hardly do justice to the size of this place, spread over several floors and with huge basement sleeping/games room. We didn't even use the poolside apartment room with its own kitchen and ensuite. The villa is at the top of a steep hill with some nice views. It is well kitted out with at least 5 en suite bedrooms and ample in door and outdoor dining areas. For a huge group like ours the kitchen lacks a bit of storage (could do with a bigger fridge/freezer and the pool area could have been bigger and sun beds weren't the best. Paying extra for high chairs and cot beds isn't great at a villa that is obviously suited to families, wi-fi was ok not great, but these are minor grumbles on what is a fantastic spot for a big group. Great beaches a 10 minute car ride away and all the nightlife, beaches and shops of Albufeira are 15 minutes by car or €8 in taxi. Local fish restaurant was good and supermarket was 5 minute walk. Faro is 40 minutes by car. We had a fantastic time.

8 of us spent a fantastic week at Villa Paris. Made full use of the facilities, barbecueing, playing in the games room, golf courses within range, cheap taxi into albufeira for a night out, great pool, huge rooms, etc. Will hopefully be back next year!

We had a fantastic week here in June. There were 11 of us, all girls and we were all very impressed with the size and standard of the property. The bedrooms were lovely, there were plenty of areas where we could all sit together and relax, the pool was great and the pool room was perfect to make cocktails for around the pool. We had a very relaxing stay and were surprised by how lovely the villa was - we hardly left. This villa really did have the WOW factor. It was great value for money too. We are already talking about coming back next year!

Waanzinnig mooie villa Wil je nu eens een week chique en gezellig vertoeven in Portugal dan is dit de plek om te zitten. Waanzinnig grote villa, keurig gestyled, grote tot zeer grote kamers, mooie keuken met goede apparatuur, ruime slaapkamers met prima faciliteiten en beheerders zorgen ervoor dat alles spic en span is. 2 tot 3 keer handdoeken wisselen was absoluut geen probleem. Daarnaast een zeer grote BB waar bijna een heel varken in kan! Daarnaast heerlijke loungebanken, mooi zwembad om af te koelen en compleet met elektronisch afgesloten hekwerk en alarm. Op 4 minuten lopen heb je al een redelijk grote supermarkt om de hoek liggen die eigenlijk alles verkoopt incl. koffiebar bij ingang voor heerlijk kop koffie als je 's ochtends brood gaat halen. In de omgeving genoeg te zien en ik adviseer je ook om een wagen te huren op het vliegveld of gebruik te maken van de shuttle en in omgeving van de haven een auto te huren wat ook per dag kan dan! Nogmaals een dergelijke villa met alles erop en aan zullen we niet zo snel weer tegenkomen en alles tegen redelijke prijs. In onze week nog 3 a 4 keer 30C meegemaakt! Wij gaan zeker nog wel een keer terug

18 of us stayed at Villa Paris for 1 week. The Villa is better and bigger than portrayed in the pictures (probably too big). Paying the extra to have the pool heated (due to time of year) was well worth doing as we had a lot of young children with us. There are roof top terraces which are fabulous (not even mentioned in the description of facilities). There is a supermarket 5 minutes walk from the Villa which is very handy. If going to Portugal again with similar numbers I would certainly consider booking Villa Paris again.

17 of us stayed in the brilliant Villa Paris aged from 3 months to 60 and had an amazing time. The villa is huge and the pictures don't get across just how big it is. Inside the villa has everything you could possibly need and if you wanted you could spend your entire holiday there. The pool heating is brilliant and the kids spent hours in it without getting cold. The villa is just a 10 minute taxi ride to Albufeira and there is a supermarket just down the end of the road. The only minor problem was that the wifi was a bit hit and miss but this didn't cause any real problems. All in all a fantastic holiday was had in a beautiful well maintained villa, which we hope to visit again!!!

Spectacular villas - 10/10 experience! Just returned for 1 weeks stay at Villa Paris. The villa is amazing, the villa is furnished and equipped to the highest standard, I would have no issue’s on recommending this property. The pool is great and the outside area has great facilities for outdoor dining. Location is great, Villa has easy access to local supermarkets and restaurants, the beach is a 30 minute walk or 10 minute bus ride. We travelled as a party of 9 including 1 infant. Local Airport is only 30 minutes away. The management team were on hand if you needed any assistance, they came to visit us to make sure everything was ok and offered recommendations on local restaurants and places of interest. If you wished to head in to local town of Albufeira you would be looking at 10-12 euro’s for 5 minute taxi journey. This was a 10/10 experience. Enjoy!

Unvergesslicher Urlaub Zum ersten Mal waren wir im Oktober 2009 an der Algarve - und es war ein einmalig schöner Urlaub. Das Haus ist ein Traum, sehr sauber und gepflegt, sehr schön eingerichtet, alleine die Bäder sind die Reise wert! Das Haus bietet so enorm viel Platz und ist doch trotzdem gemütlich, mit vielen Details, die den Aufenthalt so angenehm machen. Die Putzfrauen arbeiten wie die Heinzelmännchen, leise und sehr gut. Die Lage des Hauses ist für uns ideal, nahe an Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, nahe am Strand, aber abseits von den Touristenhochburgen und -vierteln. Gerade auch für unsere beiden Söhne war der nahe gelegene Strand ein Traum, mit tollen Wellen bot er reichlich Abwechslung. Außerdem kann man hier ganz besonders gut essen - direkt am Strand, mit herrlichem Sonnenuntergang! Aber nicht zuletzt wegen der ganz besonderen Betreuung durch die ortsansässigen Verwalter ist uns dieser Urlaub in so besonderer Erinnerung. Ganz diskret, immer sehr freundlich und mit besonderer Kompetenz wurde uns bei allen Fragen Hilfe zuteil. Ein ganz besonderes Lob! Bei der Auswahl unserer Unterkunft in diesem Jahr achten wir darauf, dass wir wieder von diesem Verwalter betreut werden! Wir freuen uns schon auf den Urlaub in diesem Jahr!

Just back from our 2 week stay in Villa Paris....I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to make it back there before next year! We had the "Wow" factor from the minute we walked in the door, from self-flushing toilets!!! to sweeping marble staircases. My 12 yr old and 3 yr old thought Christmas had come when they saw the huge american fridge freezer with ice making features not to mind the huge plasma tv's in the living room and basement (speaking of the basement, the pool table and ping-pong went down a treat!!!) We also have a 5 month old girl and I brought a hand blender as I make her dinners and freeze them in advance.......I need'nt have bothered! There was enough delph, cutlery and gadgets to last a lifetime, everything from blenders to sandwich makers!! The bathrooms were 5 star hotel quality, fab tiles, granite tops and showers to die for! At this stage I have to mention Kaiser Properties who handle the property, we could'nt have asked for more in regard to friendliness, helpfulness and overall niceness!! When I enquired as to whether there was a hairdryer in the Villa, Julie went out and bought one for my use! Apologies for not remembering Julie's dad and brother's names but they also were fantastic to deal with. The Villa was cleaned 3 days a week and I mean CLEANED!! For the size of the property I don't know how the cleaning ladies do it! If I had to mention any negatives with regard to this property then it would be 1) the towels: after showering, the fluff from the towels would stick to you like glue, maybe they were all new??? Anyway, in perspective this was a very minor annoyance and 2) it would be handy if there was a stereo or similar which could be brought out to the pool area to play music during the day. Overall though, we could'nt have asked for more from this villa, approx. 2 miles from beautiful beaches, 3 miles from the Albufeira Marina and the beautiful Old-Town and approx. 4/5 miles from Guia with it's huge shopping centre/bowling etc. Hopefully we will be back soon.

Great house Huge spacious house with great pool. Location was easy drive to town and supermarket 5 minute walk away. Great for our family reunion

Excellent villa in fabulous location The villa was in a fantastic location if you don’t mind the short hill up to it. The villa itself was well equipped especially the kitchen which meant catering for a large group so much easier. The basement area had the washing machine in the toilet which would have been better if it was separate. We didn’t use the annex as it smelled musty. The large open spaces inside was great with plenty of room for large groups to not feel that they were living on top of each other. The only major issue was that any noise downstairs travelled up to the bedrooms upstairs at night. The outdoor seating and eating areas were great as was the pool. We paid for pool heating which was brilliant.

Overall very enjoyable Not everything in the villa is what we expected. Although there were 10 people in our party no-one wanted to sleep in the annex and not all of the cycles worked. However this did not detract from what is a very large, spacious villa that has plenty of room for everyone. The owner (who lives just down the road) was very attentive to the other minor issues that we had - something that we found very re-assuring.
