Retreat w/ BBQ & heatable pool in Galé, Algarve

Algarve Vacation is deeply committed to promoting sustainable accommodation options in close collaboration with our esteemed property owners. Our dedicated mission to environmental responsibility is a testament to this commitment.

Outside, the property features a well-kept garden, a private swimming pool that is heatable (additional cost), and a ping pong table for fun family moments or games among friends.

Outstanding property and service!

The property was everything promised! As an unexpected bonus, when we arrived the property was stocked with essentials (sugar, coffee, bread, condiments, soft drinks) and even a bottle of red wine and a large bottle of Sagres. The next morning a representative met with us (Gabriella/Gabby) who was PHENOMENAL. Cheerful, helpful and very accomodating, Gabby was in contact with us throughout the week and even arranged a wonderful tour for us. We couldn't have asked for more from this experience.

Algarve vacation

We had some difficulty finding the property as the name on the property is not Villa Romana. Overall we liked the villa size, location and cleanliness. We found the beds to be very uncomfortable. We paid to have the pool heated but about half way through our stay the temperature of the water became colder even though the manager said the heat was on. We were only supplied one bath towel each, no extra towels for the pool. Be prepared to supply your own garbage bags and dishcloths.
