10 of us stayed here for a stag do in March.
Villa was beautiful! Very clean and in a quiet area which was good for us since it was a stag do!
The owners are extremely helpful and helped us organise everything from airport transfers to shopping at the local supermarket.
Taxis into the old town and new town are cheap (around 12 euros).
We will definitely be returning again later in the year and can't wait.
Tip: pay the 190 euros to get the pool heated as it was freezing when we were there. It takes a couple of days to heat it but will be well worth the money.

12 adults and 1 infant stayed here for a 60th birthday celebration, villa was superb, everything stated on the website was there, and more.
we had a fantastic stay, and would stay again in a heartbeat.
Cannot recommend highly enough, and to top it off, the weather was brilliant, the days round the pool in the sunshine in the middle of November will stay with us all for a very long time.

We arrived in Portugal to be met with the worst storm for decades and unfortunately our first villa became flooded and uninhabitable. With 13 people in our group we were not hopeful we would be able to stay together.
We contacted the owners of Vila Magnolia after a Google search and they replied quickly that the Vila could be made available to us the day after.
The owners of the villa Paolo and Christina met two of us at a supermarket at a designated time and they took us to their villa. From the moment we walked through the door we were blown away. It's fabulous.
The 13 of us, 9 adults and 3 children enjoyed our stay at Vila magnolia and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

I travelled with friends for the Scotland game in October.
Paolo met us upon arrival and ran through a folder he has prepared detailing places to eat and things to do which allowed us to plan the rest of the week accordingly.
The villa is set on a hill with nobody overlooking the private garden. The cleanliness of the place was spot on! It cost us between 10-15 euros each way in a taxi to the heart of Albuferia strip where we ate and drank most nights.
I would highly recommend this villa to large families and groups of friends and I'm already looking into booking for next year!

9 of us went to Villa Magnolia (6 adults & 3 kids) in April 2015
Paulo and Christina Met us on arrival and showed us around the villa. They have a booklet of information on places to go/see while you are there. They really want you to enjoy your whole experience and not only their villa. The villa is safe for kids as it gated.
The Villa is absolutely stunning the pool is quite big too. The location is 5 mins (€5-7) in a taxi away from the old town and the marina, and about 8 mins (€8-10) away to the new town. The villa has wi-fi too.
The beaches are right at the bottom of the old/new town
Paulo and Christina could not have been more helpful and I would highly recommend this villa.

Han a wonderful holiday here . Owners our more than happy to go out of their way for you. We went with a party of twelve and there was more space than you could need . I Couldn't fault this villa in anyway. It's a beautiful place to spend a holiday and it's cheaper than staying in cramped apartments..PERFECT !!!!

We rented the villa for a friends birthday and it was fantastic, we were a group of 10 and we all loved the place, we stayed for a week and I could have moved in for ever,the pool is stunning and the location is perfect. And the hosts are on hand to help in anyway they can. I promise that you wouldn't be disappointed.
