Villa Severino Overview
Just a short stroll from Castelo beach and with impressive panoramic views, Villa Severino enjoys the serenity of a relatively rural setting whilst being within walking distance of the sandy beach, shops, minimarkets , restaurants and cafés. A welcoming, luxuriously spacious home for families, the open plan living area is bright with two sets of French windows that open onto colourful gardens. The upstairs bedrooms benefit from having access to a large balcony. From this privileged vantage point far-reaching views stretch out towards Castelo to the sparking sea. Externally, the attractive gardens and lovely private pool create an oasis which you will find difficult to leave, however getting out and about could not be easier.

The villa was functional although the layout seemed rather odd. To reach the outside dining area it was necessary to walk around half of the outside. Not ideal when moving food etc. There was no permanent shade covering the outside eating area and the umbrellas were useless in the breeze. I would be careful to ensure a covered eating area for the future.

Our villa was immaculately clean, well equipped and in a great location. 2 adults and 2 children stayed but it was massive so we had ample room! Our only downside was it’s cold in October so heaters were a must. We had a few restaurants within walking distance, 2 mini markets and the quietest beach we have been on! We never wanted to hire a car and found Uber taxis spot on. £6 each way to the old town and £4 each way to the marina Our rep was always on hand to ask any questions and he assisted us several times with his local knowledge. Fantastic holiday and looking forward to booking with Solmar again.

Villa was perfect. Everything we needed , beautiful pool and idyllic views out to sea. Directions from airport perfect and information pack detailing local amenities. The area had enough places to eat and drink with good variety and all walking distance but not so crowded which kept the place peaceful. Beach also easy access on foot.

We had a lovely holiday, villa was clean and had all we needed. Pool and BBQ great too. Any minor problem we had we rang the office and the problem was either sorted out over the phone or someone came over that morning which was great. Cannot fault the service we received. We did need a car but easily walk to the beach (5 min run in the morning got me to the beach)

Rated: Good Good location walking distance to restaurants and supermarket. Very short drive to numerous beaches and 10 minutes to Albuferia. Spacious villa set in its own grounds. Pool is excellent. Linen and towels changed regularly. All bedrooms have air conditioning, fans provided in lounge, kitchen and dining areas. Bathrooms adequate with copious amounts of hot water. Negatives include FIRM mattresses, no access to UK satellite stations and oven is very tricky to operate. 2 sets of property keys would also have been beneficial. The local management of the property was excellent and any issues were addressed immediately e.g. replacement of faulty kettle, hair drier and empty gas bottle. Overall we enjoyed our 2 week stay in the villa.

There are a number of comfortable settees and chairs, an enclosed fireplace, sideboard and coffee table within the salon. Entertainment is provided here by way of a Digital Satellite TV, DVD player and Hi Fi system. A second archway from the dining area leads to a large fully fitted breakfast.

This is an exellent villa Outside, from the covered terrace, steps lead down to a spacious sun terrace and the feature 10m x 4m swimming pool, which benefits from roman steps and has a poolside shower. Patio furniture and a brick built BBQ are provided to enjoy Alfresco dining. A rather special feature of this villa is its full size private tennis court set in the grounds beside the house. You can enjoy as many games as you wish without interruption. The villa has mature, ornamental gardens with off road parking is available for at least three cars.

Myself, hubby and grown up daughter stayed at this villa the first week of October 2012. Its in a great, quiet location with some fantastic restaurants within 15 mins walk. You have 3 beaches with 20 mins walk, which are clean and interesting little coves. The villa itself is spacious and the grounds are large so plenty of room to lounge around. The views from the villa are great. We booked through Solmar Villas and they were extremely helpful and the directions etc were very good too.

We had a wonderful time at our villa and will always consider a villa holiday in the future. A rep visited us the first day and gave us information / maps / bus timetables / location of super market / taxis which was really helpful - we may have struggled without her visit. The villa was very clean, nicely decorated and didn't look at all tired. The location was quiet (which we liked). The pool was clean, garden nice. We couldn't really fault anything.

We enjoyed the holiday and the villa was fine, the place was clean and comfortable. On our arrival we shopped for provisions easily at the local Continente and found a good lunch in the food hall in the shopping mall above.We can recommend a trip up to Monchique for the view and pleasant drive.

We had a great time we found the villa had everything we needed for a lovely relaxing break, we had everything and more than we had in other villas we have stayed. We found the transfers a great help and would reccomend future visitors use this service. The pool was cleaned regularly and the ladies who came to clean were very friendly and efficient. We found yourself to be very helpful and also everything you said you would arrange you did and so thank you .

Yes, we found your organisation very good and all your arrangements worked. We found the Villa, facilities and the pool excellent. We found the local Castella beach excellent with the cliff top walk going west very exhilarating. I would not hesitate to use you again and would recommend to others.
