Villa Simoes Overview
With a selection of restaurants, shops and café’s nearby, along with the magnificent sandy Gale beach (less than 500m) the location of Villa Simoes is amongst our best in the Algarve. Sitting proudly amongst villas of similar stature, this modern villa is an excellent choice for keeping car use to a minimum.
Both inside and out there is no shortage of space in which to relax, all rooms being bright and welcoming. Patio doors lead out of the living room to the sunny terrace where a built in barbecue awaits, steps from here lead you down to the Al Fresco dining area and inviting private swimming pool. A most delightful spot to enjoy a welcoming sun downer at the end of a gruelling day in the sun!
While there may be no need to use the car, do take time to explore further afield, Albufeira with its eclectic selection of shops, restaurants and café bars is less than a fifteen minute bus ride away, and the other fabulous sandy beaches either side of Gale can be reached by foot.

Resort Description
A sweeping three miles stretch of perfectly manicured golden sand dominates this part of the Portuguese coastline, and is backed by dramatic limestone cliffs making it one of the Algarve's most picturesque resorts. Gale beach (or Praia de Gale) is suitable for all ages, with calming waters ideal for paddling on some days, and on others there are stronger waves making water sports a great option. Our villas in Gale are within easy reach of the beach, whilst the vibrant town of Albufeira is just a short drive away.

We love Gale, have been going for 5 years and always book with Solmar villas. The standard of accommodation is always excellent and villa Simoes was in an ideal situation for beach and Apolonia supermarket, the only thing I wasn't keen on was the steps down to the pool would prefer to walk straight out to pool area

It was a great sized villa, clean and bright. The Villa Rep was excellent, very helpful and friendly. Area was very quiet in April when we went on holiday (which was perfect for us). Only a short walk from the beach (approx. 7-10mins), with lovely restaurants to watch stunning sunsets. 10mins by cab to Albufeira only 10EUR approx., if you want to see either the lovely old town or party harder in the new town/strip area. Everyone was very friendly. Would definitely return.

The house was clean and spacious and the balconies were wonderful. The close proximity to the excellent quality shop was fantastic but the best thing was the local beach. Just beautiful. Chilling out at the bar was really special. The restaurant at the beach was also fantastic in every way. Excellent value for money and excellent service.

Rated: Good Great villa, great area and ideally situated within easy walk to the fabulous 5km beach (less than 10 mins). Everything you need in a villa (apart from beach towels) and no car needed. Split level which is nice for two families sharing and very close to the well stocked supermarket and a selection of walkable restaurants. We also ate at the bar on the beach, which was excellent. Great weather too!

Rated Excellent. Villa was very child friendly, with gates on all stairs. Villa situated very close to the beach, about 7-10 min walk, supermarket- 2 min. Solmar Villas organised everything perfectly, we didn't need to contact anyone. We got all instructions in the package. In total we really enjoyed our time in Portugal, weather was great, beach was not busy.

Rated Excellent. Dealing with Solmar Vilas representatives is so Hassle free. I cannot speak highly enough about their level of service and ability to keep things simple. Great facilities and the best location I have ever had in terms of accessibility for supermarket, beach, bars, cafe's and restaurants. Everything within easy walking distance.
