Villa Blue Ocean Gale, Faro

The villa is very dated and in need of a LOT of modernising.The beds are the worst we have ever had in a villa with the pillows only worth putting in the skip.The towels were old and very thin. You would think that some good quality plastic glasses for drinking outside would be supplied but only children's beakers and very old wine glasses. The pool was not clean with a pool man coming to clean he was there for about ten minutes The best thing was the beach was only a five minute walk away

The property has an excellent location, good overall conditions and is good value for money; it was (I believe) recently renovated, including the furniture. The swimming pool, although not very large was quite convenient – especially for the kids – and clean. Our only complaint was the fridge: quite small (which is bad in summer for large families such as ours) and with a dent in the upper part. Air conditioning in all bedrooms was great; however, it was sorely missed in the common room!

Spacious villa with good pool and a short (walking) distance from the beach, a supermarket and a good restaurant. There was little shade on the terrace, but the manager has promised to see if a large umbrella is possible. Kitchen and bathrooms are a bit dated but functional. Plenty of parking (one car can be next to the villa).

This Villa has a great location, very close to the beach and fabulous view across the sea, and beautiful sunsets. Arrival instructions clear and straightforward, the Villa was very clean and had all the amenities required for a Villa holiday. The only down side is that some of fixtures and fittings are very dated and shabby. The worst issue was the mattresses on the beds, very uncomfortable, and the lumpy pillows. Had a couple a minor issues, all quickly resolved by the local Interhome Team.

House very well located, well equipped and fabulous garden with pool

good location and good swimming pool. Poor furniture and cleaning
