Absolutely perfect, wouldn't hesitate to book again. We were a little apprehensive about booking a villa separately, but as we were taking 5 teenage children a large pool and a bit privacy was top of our list, we just hoped the villa was as described. It turned out to be perfect for us and exactly as described. It’s a great size villa, well laid out and has everything you could want. The pool is massive and very deep....around 3m. We opted for the pool heating and it was spot on, it really took the edge off the water, as a result we used it all day long. The great thing for the kids was the ability to use the pool first thing in the morning and even late at night, we’re used to pools opening and closing at certain times so this was amazing for us. Swimming at night in a heated pool with the stars over your head was brilliant! All the bedrooms are twins and a good size, two have ensuite, there’s a large bathroom and separate toilet, decent dining areas (inside and out) and a well equipped kitchen. There’s plenty of space to catch up on a tan if that’s your thing with a great roof terrace that gets sun all day long. We didn’t pay for air-conditioning so it was quite hot in the villa but fortunately there’s plenty of fans to move some of the hot air about. The villa is in a lovely quiet area but even with five teenagers we didn’t feel like we were making too much noise or being a nuisance, there’s quite a lot of space between villas which I think helps. If I had to pick a downside it would be the distance you need to walk to the local shops…….you pay the price for peace and quiet. We didn’t get a hire car as on google maps everything you need is within 15-30 min walk. We thought it would be straightforward but it’s a hilly place so when you’re going up/down hills in 30+ degree heat, well, it was tiring to say the least. We ended up getting a taxi to pick us up from the villa to take us to the centre of town, even a minibus was only 8 Euro’s so not too expensive. Fortunately, everything we needed to know was in the welcome book, taxi number, shop locations, everything. We are already talking about our next trip out, which is very rare for us. We never seem to go back to places but we loved it here. If you’re considering this villa or have booked it I would recommend you pay for pool heating, get the welcome pack so you have food & beer when you arrive, pay for air-conditioning and consider getting a hire car, although it’s not essential if you’re willing to get taxi’s and pay for the transfers.

We spent a very good holiday in this large villa. The villa is very pretty, well located and well equipped. When at the pool... just look at the pictures! We thoroughly enjoyed the rental facilities: bed linen & towels provided, cleaning during the stay, everything ready upon our arrival! The employees were courteous and discrete. We have not had to complain about anything whatsoever, and it really was a wonderful stay. Thanks much for this stay and if we go back in the Algarve, we will contact you!

Hi Susie, we are back and trying to get over the weather here.... we had an amazing holiday and absolutely loved the villa - missing it and the lazy days by the pool. Thank you for ensuring everything went smoothly, I will be sure to recommend you to all. Best wishes,

We have spent some happy days in Carvoeiro, the magnificent house, stay second to none, thank you for your recommendation and hope to return next year, a hug, kind regards,

We all had a wonderful time and hope to be back next year. We would love to come back to jacaranda again. Many thanx for a lovely villa and hope to be in contact again will definately pass your details to friends and family.

Brilliant holiday! Vila do Milho provided everything we all (age range of 64 years to 6 months!) needed, and lots more. Very favourite bits were the huge pool and the fabulous, tiled, outside eating area beside the barbeque. The management company were great and so helpful when we had a car problem (and not a word of Portuguese between us!). Our only disappointment was that we were only there for 1 week - within a few days of returning home we'd booked a fortnight for next summer!

Hi Susie, Many thanks for our stay at the Villa, it was very enjoyable and we will definitely be back again if you will have us. Thanks again.

Dear Susie, The villa was really lovely and the size was impressive. The outstanding feature is the 16m pool and was actually the main reason we booked that villa, albeit we knew the area well and knew it was close walking distance to beach as well. We’ve been at villas before with electric gates, automatic awnings (close automatically if windy) and the full Sky package before, but these are fairly small areas of improvement. Overall though the villa was very nice and the maid, gardener and pool cleaner were all very good at doing their job without being in the way. Thanks for everything.

This is an amazing villa, everything you need for a family holiday. Had an amazing time and would definitely return. First class service from booking to payment, transfers from airport, everything spot on. Thank you we had a fantastic family holiday. Would definitely recommend.

Well equipped house in convenient location.
