We had a lovely weeks stay at the villa. We were 3 families with teenagers. The villa had everything we needed to ensure all 6 teenage boys were occupied. Large pool -great for water polo and a games /cinema room. The villa has views to the coast from various rooms, veranda and balcony area. The kitchen was probably the best stocked kitchen we’ve had for cooking utensils, crockery and glasses and it good to have enough seating for all whether inside or outside. Carolina our host responded very quickly to any queries we had and supplied us with local knowledge for our trips. Our late night trip to the doughnut shop was the best following an enjoyable meal at the family’s restaurant. Thanks to Carolina for a great stay.

Villa Colibri
Located on rising ground just north of the small town of Moncarapacho and below the highest point on the Algarve, villa Colibri enjoys great views toward the sea. It was big enough to accommodate 17 of us over 3 generations. It has excellent facilities, including a great pool that was never crowded even with all of us in it. The holiday was delayed for two years by the pandemic but Henrique was very accommodating in extending our booking from 2021 to 2022. He also owns the Restaurant Colibri in Moncarapacho which was well able to cater for us on two occasions during our stay and provided excellent food, which can be booked in advance from menus available at the villa. We had cleaning halfway through, which was very efficiently managed by Henriques wife Teresa. The games facilities were enjoyed by many family members. This was a new part of the Algarve to us and we enjoyed getting to know the pretty towns of Tavra and Olhau. proximity to Spain meant that two separate groups from the family were able to enjoy trips to Seville, one staying overnight. Being quite high up the villa benefits from the breezes coming off the Atlantic but all bedrooms have airconditioning to aid sleeping when it gets really hot. The wi fi can be a little challenging to manage as it can change as you move around the property but is otherwise manageable. Overall plenty of space allowed for a relaxing time to create a truly memorable holiday to celebrtae my wife's 70th birthday, albeit delayed for 2 years! Thanks to Henrique and Teresa.

Very spacious family villa
Perfect family holiday villa. We were a family of 17 people, age ranges from 6 to 78.. We really enjoyed our time at the villa. There was plenty of space and separate areas to play and relax in. The kitchen was well equipped, there were both indoor and outdoor dining areas large enough to accomodate us all. It's a lovely quiet location with views of the sea to the south. The pool is a great size and the area surrounding it has lots of trees and shady areas. The host family couldn't be more accomodating, they were helpful and attentive and always available with any questions we had. I would highly recommend this villa for a large holiday group.

Large family gathering
This Villa is a good size space and there was ample room for the 15 of us. The Villa is tired , handles are broken , shower screens missing ,Fridges and the coffee broken and the Cooker was more than quirky to use. In the basement there is a bathroom with no light bulb I expect this house sees quite a lot of partying over a year. At the price we paid we would have hoped the owner should plough some of the rent back into this house really ,to keep it tip top. Sadly the showers and bathrooms need more attention paid to the level of cleanliness, the plug holes where clogged and drains blocked to more than one of the bathrooms. On arrival there was sadly only 3 loo rolls to cover the 5 bathrooms. We loved the games room, some new investment in table tennis balls would be good. Having said all that , the pool is wonderfully and the gardens really great. The area and the Portuguese fabulous. All in all we really enjoyed our stay.

A Very Special Time
We were booked for a full week, but had to cut our trip short due to COVID-19 and tightening travel restrictions. During this stressful time, Henrique was unbelievably flexible, understanding, generous and communicative. The villa was luxurious and comfortable; we were a group of 10 including six kids, and the kids had the times of their lives. In a crazy time, this place was an oasis. Highly recommend.

Lovely stay in a beautiful villa
We had the most lovely week in Villa Colibri. The pool and garden was so lovely we didn't venture out much at all but having said that Ria Formosa beach area is beautiful and not so tourist as the Algarve. We loved the sleepy town of Moncarapacho which has nice cafes and restaurants. The Villa has lovely views and plenty of space for large parties and terraces for some quite time. Henrique and Theresa are lovely hosts and so welcoming. This Villa offers great value given its quality and location so we would love to visit again sometime. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

Perfect for a large family group in every way.
The booking of the villa from the start was easy and communication with Henrique was quick and efficient. We were a party of 4 families with children from the age of 2 to 18. The villa had everything you could wish for and more. The lager on tap was an added bonus for the adults! Plenty of space for all 18 of us and a safe pool environment for the little ones. An amazing time was had by all.

Lovely Portugal
We had a lovely 10 day holiday at this villa which delivered everything we wanted. Excellent weather, nice looking house with well maintained garden, large pool, good communal areas (reasonable equipped kitchen, nice terraces, fun games equipment), good views, and bbq. The local town is pleasant with reasonable shopping for supplies (and larger supermarkets are a 15 minute drive away). The sea and good beaches are around a 20 minute drive away (but do take a wind break and parasol). Local markets and food are well worth indulging - delicious and offer great value. Henrique and Teresa (the hosts) are helpful and easy to communicate with - as are the local people generally. Around 25 minutes drive from Faro airport.

A high standard residence, extremely well equipped. All enjoyed the big, warm swimming pool and jacuzzi. The kitchen was well equipped with a long table to let us all eat together. We all had a most enjoyable holiday. It was a little far from the sea and the roads were temporarily horiffic. Otherwise excellent. Henrique and Teresa have restaurant Colibri in the town which is well worth a visit.

Such a good time.
We are just back from the most wonderful holiday, we spent a week at the villa with friends & family, as we celebrated our 40th wedding. Our group was aged between 6 months & 80 years old & everyone had all they needed from highchair to room on the ground floor with a bathroom right next door. The villa is very spacious so room & places to get some quiet time if you feel the need. Large spaces for group activities & enough room between that when we had our noisy pool/foosball/table tennis tournament no one was disturbed. Henrquei was around frequently to clean the pool & ensure we had all we needed, there were Road works underway so he made sure we knew all the ways in & out! Would not hesitate to return.

Great location in the countryside within easy driving reach of Moncarapacho. Lovely scenery and great accommodation albeit a little quirky in layout. Only downside were the cockerels crowing from 4 a.m. and barking dogs. Villa large ample size and great pool. Location ideal for day trips to beaches and Tavira and also not far from Spain. 25 minutes from Faro airport so no holiday treks.

Fantastic break
We have just returned from a week long family holiday at this villa. Henrique is a great host and has been more than obliging to our group - even providing us with a delicious pack of freshly cooked octopus from his restaurant after our attempts of cooking some ourselves failed miserably. The villa is very clean and presentable. As a previous reviewer has commented, the furnishings are not necessarily brand new but to be honest, when you have a group that includes teenagers, it's good that you can just relax in your surroundings. In my opinion, having a spotlessly clean villa with plenty of beach towels, kitchen utensils, knives that are actually sharp etc; is more important. The star of the trip was the huge pool, hot tub and having the beer on tap (well worth the extra charge) There is nothing within walking distance, so this is something to bear in mind. However, the Wi-Fi, cinema and games room ensure all ages are catered for. As our younger family members are getting to an age where they may not be not be interested in a group holiday next year, this years break could not have gone any better and we will always remember the fantastic time we had here. I would not hesitate to recommend this villa to groups and families who just want a chilled out break.

Great location for a family gathering
We had a great week staying here with a family group from grandparents to babies. The heated pool in particular was fantastic. The owner (Henrique) was really helpful. Interesting places close by to explore and safe beaches for the youngsters to enjoy the sand and water. Amazing fish markets (particularly in Ohloa) and great set up for barbecuing at the villa. Beautiful rural location and views from the villa but having a car is a must as there are no shops etc within walking distance.

Fantastic family get together
The villa was just great for what we wanted. A nice big place with plenty of space for 11 of us including four young grandchildren. The kids loved being in and out of the pool and the outside hot tub. The huge film room was great for the evenings when we could plug the children in.. The table tennis and pool table kept adults and children well amused also. The huge living room log fire was especially welcome in the evenings and the barbecue area outside came into play may times. The wifi was brilliant and never failed. Henrique and Teresa were very good hosts and always so pleasant. The furnishings are not luxurious which suited us well as we didn't have to worry too much about the children.but the whole place was very clean and tidy. All in all it was perfect for our needs.
