Just spent a 2 week family holiday at Villa Irene. 14 of us, of all ages.
On arrival, the grounds are secure and access is via gate operated by a key fob. The villa itself, was presented perfectly, very clean throughout, kitchen fully equipped with dining seating for all.
The bed linen, bath and pool towels were changed and the villa cleaned after the first week.
Day time teperatures were in the 30's and at night it was till very hot, which made the aircon in the bedrooms essential at night, they worked a treat.
The grounds was well laid out and clean with beautifully maintained garden and great parking space for our 4 cars.
The pool and surrounding area had plenty of sun beds, 2 parasols and a fantastic shaded seating area with 2 tables and enough seating for all - first class indeed.
The pool and pool area was regularily cleaned and the garden maintained during our stay.
The outdoor bbq area on the lower level was excellent and used frequently throughout our stay.
We found the general loaction of Almancil very good for accessing various activities as it was only short distances by car to Alhoa, Faro, Vilamoura etc. Go-karting, Aqua Park, mini-golf and golf courses were on the doorstep. For grocery shopping we used Apolonia Supermarket in Almancil, food choice and quality was superb.
We have stayed in villas in the mediterranean but Villa Irene now seems to have become our number 1.
A truely great holiday was had by all.
Thanks also to Catarina who was our villa contact.
