We know that you might be feeling uncertain about booking your next holiday with the ever-changing travel restrictions, which is why we've introduced our Travel Restrictions Guarantee for your peace of mind.
Book your next villa holiday with confidence, safe in the knowledge that you can either move your dates or receive a holiday voucher for the full amount paid if your travel dates are restricted by either FCDO/local government advice advice or local restrictions in your destination country.*
The Travel Restrictions Guarantee is automatically included in the website price and can be removed before you book, however we strongly advise you keep it to give you added flexibility and protection.
You will still need to purchase a comprehensive travel insurance policy as soon as your booking is confirmed. This insurance should, as a minimum, protect you against cancellation, curtailment, medical expenses, loss/theft of possessions and documents, personal liability and airline failure.

Resort Description
Albufeira is the jewel in the Algarve's crown and is all about the entertainment factor. This bustling seaside town is home to silky soft sands, a cosmopolitan marina and plenty of family-fun adventures, including water parks and a zoomarine park. You can also potter the cobbled streets of Albufeira's whitewashed Old Town and soak up the local culture, or take your pick from some of the best beaches in Portugal including the nearby golden sands of Gale and Sao Rafael.

The villa is in an excellent location, with the Old Town being a 15min walk away in one direction and The Strip a 15min walk in the other. There is also one large and one small supermarket within 5min walk as well as restaurants and bars (including McDonald's, KFC, and local restaurants). The outside pool area is wonderful and catches the sun all day. The area is quiet and the villa garden has plenty of foliage so isn't overlooked. The indoor facilities are a little dated but are fully functional and everything you could need is provided. We would recommend this villa for groups/families.

The size of the villa was perfect, we all had plenty of room there were 11 of us in total and still plenty room for a couple more!! 2 of our party were babies so slept in one room with us in travel cots. The villa was ready before handover which was really convenient and our rep kept us up to date. Location wasn't to bad 20 min walk from the main strip or 20 minutes walk to old town and beach, but there was a little train you could pick up across the road and for €5 you could get a return trip. Plenty if super markets close to stock up. There is a 10pm curfew as in no noise after this time which is fine but others didn't seem to abide the rule!!

We had a fantastic family holiday would definitely recommend villa Torcato. Only issue was comfort of some of the beds I think they need to be reviewed and the high chair was old and in bad repair other than that it was great
