Relaxing stay
Impressive parking space at front of property,car is needed here. The villa is beautifully laid out and spacious. Washing room is outside of villa with drying area next to it. Thepool area is beautiful and spacious. Victor his wife and sister were always on hand if required. The large Intermarche supermarket is walking distance away,although you wouldn't realise it. We had a great time there even though weather not always great. A return visit definitely on the cards. always on hand to render assistance if required on hanhelp

100 % recommend to families
Just back from a weeks vacation in this amazing villa. Very clean and welcoming. Fully equipped with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. Situated very close to a supermarket but far enough away for it not to affect your stay. Both my children (11 & 23) found plenty to occupy them from the swimming pool to the loungers. Very quiet location and set back from the main road. The owner Vitor was lovely, very polite and friendly .. Looking forward to booking again next year.

Lovely Villa in a great location
Great villa, quiet location. Don't be put off with it being next to a supermarket. If you don't look over the hedge you don't even know it's there. We did find the beds a little hard, but other than that we couldn't fault it. Owner Vitor met us on arrival and responded very quickly to any queries we had. Definitely recommended.

Very spacious , clean, fantastic pool area.
We had a lovely time in Villa Mafalda. Great peaceful location ... but easily reached by car/bus to all amenities . Inter Marche just on your doorstep was very convenient. Thank you Victor for your lovely hospitality .we were provided with a small welcome food and drink pack when we arrived very late at night . Great family holiday villa with teenagers who really made use of the pool area ! Thank you again

Lovely Villa great location
We had one of the best holidays at Casa Mafalda, Carvoeiro. Vitor and his wife were super lovely welcoming and helpful. The gardens and pool were fantastic and the villa had everything we needed. The bedrooms were quiet and cool at night. Thoroughly recommended and we would like to return in future.

Lovely villa very well appointed. The house, garden and pool all very well maintained. Thanks Vitor
Very enjoyable time spent at Villa Mafalda we came looking for peace and quiet and found it. The Villa is very well placed for everything in the area. On separate occasions we drove, took the bus and walked into Carvoeiro. The Villa itself is lovely and the pool area especially so. Although it was just the two of us this time we'll certainly be rebooking for our family holiday next year.

Magnífico alojamiento y Victor un fantástico anfitrión
Pasamos una semana en familia en este magnífico alojamiento. La casa está muy cuidada y la limpieza es absoluta. Tiene todo lo necesario para disfrutar de unas magníficas vacaciones. La piscina de agua salada es estupenda, le da el sol todo el día y se está de lujo. El alojamiento se encuentra a 50 metros de un supermercado donde puedes encontrar todo lo que necesitas y a 5 min de Carvoeiro, pueblo muy bonito, con mucho ambiente y donde puedes encontrar magníficos restaurantes y bares. Con coche se llega en muy poco tiempo a todas las playas de alrededor, que merecen mucho la pena, así como la visita a las cuevas, al algar seco y a otros pequeños pueblos que se encuentran alrededor de Carvoeiro. Por último, agradecer a Victor su amabilidad, ha sido un fantástico anfitrión. !Ójala podamos volver pronto!

Casa Mafalda
Sehr gepflegte und geräumige Villa. Alles vorhanden und sehr sauber. Leider führt eine Hauptstrasse in unmittelbarer Nähe vorbei was Strassenlärm verursacht. Als Ausgleich hierfür ist ein gut sortierter Supermarkt fussläufig in wenigen Minuten zu erreichen. Der Vermieter spricht nur Portugiesisch. Seine Schwester allerdings wohnt nebenan, spricht gutes Englisch und ist sehr hilfsbereit. Alles in allem ein sehr schönes Quartier.

Fabulous holidays at Villa Mafalda
We have spent a fabulous holidays at Villa Mafalda with two families. The villa is really well equipped, so that we wanted for nothing. The location of Villa Mafalda is great: short ways to Carvoeiro and to various other beaches. The Supermarket next-door is really great. There you can buy nearly everything but you do not take any notice when you are staying at Villa Mafalda. The support and especially the location plan to Villa Mafalda were perfect. In peace of conscience we can recommend Vitor and the villa and would like to come back again. Dear Vitor, again we want thank you very much for the beautiful holidays and many thanks for the inflatable objects for the pool. The kids have been very pleased about that. Kind regards from Germany

Mooie, ruime en schone villa
Heerlijke vakantie gehad in deze villa. Goede locatie, centraal gelegen in het gebied Lagoa/Carvoeiro/Silves (alles binnen een 20 minuten rijden) De eerste keer even opletten, je rijdt zo de onverharde weg voorbij die tussen 2 huizen in ligt. Handig dat de supermarkt ongeveer in de achtertuin staat (waar je overigens geen overlast van hebt, evenals de doorgaande weg). Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en typisch Portugees ingericht, met 3 ruime slaapkamers, 2 badkamers (1 met bad) en een heerlijk groot zwembad. In de 2 weken dat wij er waren werd er 2x schoongemaakt, schone handdoeken lagen gewoon voor de pak. Erg aardige eigenaar die helaas niet zo goed Engels sprak, maar wij dan ook weer niet zo goed Portugees. Klein minpuntje: de tuinstoelen zitten niet echt prettig voor lange mensen.
