Lock in a great price for Villas Rufino – rated 8.9 by recent guests!

to get started.

The facilities were very clean and the staff were excellent, very warm and friendly.

Lyndsay, United Kingdom

It was an excellent facility, extremely clean with a 22 metre pool, and only 3 minutes walk from the nearest beach. About 4 other beautiful beaches nearby. Albufeira was a 10 minute drive away, and would recommend a hire car, as the Villas are in a very quiet suburb of Albufeira. There were some very good local restaurants, especially an Italian called Bellavita.

Anne, United Kingdom

Location is stunning. Resort is quiet. Close to great beaches and restaurants.

Nicholas, United Kingdom

Friendly staff, beautiful spacious and clean villa with seaview. Everything in the kitchen was very clean. There is a beach closeby but its rocky, but more sandy beaches in a short distance. We enjoyed every minute and regretted leaving

Sharon, United Kingdom

Beautiful views of the ocean, beautifully maintained property lawns and flowers, good sized accommodation maintained to a good standard, very nicely fitted main bathroom, lovely clean and well maintained swimming pool that was never overcrowded and every villa had its own barbeque on the patio. Also a tennis court which will need some maintenance soon but was perfectly OK for playing on. Air conditioning in lounge and both bedrooms.

Alan, United Kingdom

Spacious place and fantastic view from room and balcony

Yujia, Singapore

Beautiful, spacious, clean apartment, we felt very comfortable here, close to beautiful beaches. Villas have amazing area with flowers, pool, tennis court. Staff was nice.

Marek, Slovakia

Beautifully appointed, pristine mid terraced villa set in very well kept complex with well tended gardens, a perfect sized pool area, lots of new sun beds and a tennis court. All in spotlessly clean condition with superb housekeeping staff who were warm and friendly. Gale area is quiet area of Albufeira with a casual chic vibe and a peppering of really great restaurants. All in all, a great holiday.

Suzanne, United Kingdom

Beautiful villas with stunning views, so peaceful & quiet, lovely beach few minutes walk

Patricia, Ireland

It was an amazing stay. All villas has a view to the ocean. Big and nice swimming pool. Staff was kind. Would recommend to everyone. We been amazed that in reality it looked even better than in pictures. Willing to come back in the future.

Donatas

“This apartment is beautiful, with 2 floors, a balcony and a big terrace with sunbeds and barbecue. We were just 2, and didn't use the spare room with twin beds. The apartment was cleaned every day, the towels replaced. The living room and kitchen are spacious and well equipped. Comfortable and safe parking inside the property. The ocean view is amazing and nice swimming pool. Also a tennis court for a little rent price.”

“Disappointed by location but still had a relaxing stay.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Two Bedroom Villa
- • Stayed 6 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉The villa is NOT in Albuferia as advertised, it is in Gale. There are a few restaurants within walking distance of the villa but nothing like the selection we'd hoped to have if we were in Albuferia. The villa was very clean and spacious however it did not represent good value for money. The kitchen was tired: the seal on the fridge was almost gone and the Formica table was chipped/cracked. The main bathroom was nicely upgraded but the furniture in the living room and bedrooms had definitely seen better days.
눇The facilities were very clean and the staff were excellent, very warm and friendly.

눉Some of the equipment in the kitchen is dated but it is evident that work is being done to update the villas i.e. New bathroom from last year which was beautiful. Would not put us off as we have always had a fantastic holiday at Rufino.
눇Location is stunning. Resort is quiet. Close to great beaches and restaurants.

“Lovely villas in a very good location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Two Bedroom Villa
- • Stayed 10 nights
눉Pretty small things really that would only spoil the stay for picky people. Lack of kitchen utensils, especially a sharp knife and lack of breakfast bowls in our villa. We had villa 15 and the electricity was tripped a couple of times by the dishwasher which developed a permanent fault the day before we left. The staff said they would replace the dishwasher on the Monday we left, which is fine given we reported it on the Sunday. Table on patio was rickety, probably needed the screws tightening up.
눇Beautiful views of the ocean, beautifully maintained property lawns and flowers, good sized accommodation maintained to a good standard, very nicely fitted main bathroom, lovely clean and well maintained swimming pool that was never overcrowded and every villa had its own barbeque on the patio. Also a tennis court which will need some maintenance soon but was perfectly OK for playing on. Air conditioning in lounge and both bedrooms.

눉If I'm being really picky, we had a few minor issues with locking and unlocking our front door. Attempts were quickly made by staff to resolve this and they worked to a point.
눇Beautifully appointed, pristine mid terraced villa set in very well kept complex with well tended gardens, a perfect sized pool area, lots of new sun beds and a tennis court.
