We stayed here for 4 nights in April 2012, had booked 2 apartments, after reading reviews. We were not disappointed, whole complex is clean, modern and quiet. First time we`ve had dishwashers and microwaves on holidays, and plenty of loungers at poolside. Staff really pleasant, in particular managing director Nuno, who went above and beyond the call of duty in... More

We stayed in a three bedroomed villa for a short break in March. The house was large and roomy and very well equipped. The property was spotlessly clean. The reception spoke excellent English and were very friendly and polite. The location was perfect for our stay as it was only a five minute journey to the Lagoa dos Salgados where... More

The Villas Barracol is definietly what everyone describes. The view from our balcony towards the ocean is so nice day and night. We rented bikes to get around and this was a great way to see the area. Although a car would be best. We were nervous about driving in Portugal but it seems quite common so probably we would... More

Only two more days to go before we leave our spacious two-bedroom apartment at Villas Barrocal. From our arrival on February 7, we've been very impressed with the kindness and help provided by Nuno and Christina in the office. We have excellent maid service 3 times per week. The grounds and pool area are very well maintained. There is ample... More

We booked this as a quick cheap week away with our 1 year old and to be honest wasn't expecting much - for the price (£86 roughly) We booked a 1 bedroom apartment but on arrival had been given a lovely 2 bedroomed apartment. I really was very impressed. Absolutely spotless, the rooms were cleaned every other day which I... More

Just back from 9 nights in a two bedroom apartment in this complex. For the price I paid the quality of the accomodation was more than excellent. I had booked a one bedroom apartment for £83 for the 9 days but on arrival found we were in a 2 bedroom apartment with a view from the back towards the beach... More

We hired one of the three bedroomed villas for 3 nights in February for two of us, after I found a really good deal on the internet. When we entered my initial thought was that it looked a little bit sad, but the place really grew on me as I stayed there. The kitchen was well equipped, not the most... More

We booked these villas after reading the last review on this site. We were not disapointed. We booked a 2 bedroomed deluxe and was allocated a 3 bedroomed deluxe. The villa was spotless. 3 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, full size kitchen with kitchen table. Lounge diner with plenty of seating and another dining table seating 8. small garden and patio area... More

We found these villas by chance on a last-minute booking. On arrival we were impressed by the level of cleanliness, the equipment provided, the facilities and the security. Our villa (2 bed deluxe) had comfortable beds, dishwasher, proper oven with hob, large fridge-freezer and views over countryside towards the sea. The villa had been well cleaned and inspected before we... More
