Just returned from another fabulous holiday in the Algarve. We stayed at the Villas Rufino (5th time), which were in our opinion first class. They were spacious, clean and modern. The kitchen was large and very well equipped with fridge freezer, microwave, cooker/hob, dishwasher and more than enough crookery, glasses etc. On the ground floor was a spacious livingroom with...

Stayed with a large group as had a wedding at a villa near-by (getting married anytime soon? check the private villa near-by out- STUNNING) and Villas Rufino had everything we needed. Mixture of families and couples and all of us enjoy a bit of a party- found the only hard part is that the sound really does carry here so... More

The other reviewer described the villas perfectly. The location looking over the ocean could not be bettered, how wonderful to wake up to that view each morning. The grounds and the outside of the villas had great attention to detail, the photos on the website are just as it is. The maid service was excellent, we had serveral towel changes... More

When I book a holiday I always check Tripadvisor about the accommodation and was really surprised not to be able to find these villas on the site but carried on and booked hoping that everything would be ok. Thank goodness that we did they are absolutely fantastic. On arriving we had been told that we would not be able to... More
