Villas in Portugal - Luxury Holiday Villas in Algarve

We just returned from an unforgettable holiday at Villa Penina Majestic in the Algarve, Portugal – and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Our group of 20 people stayed for a week, and every single one of us had the time of our lives.

The villa itself is truly majestic – spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a perfect group getaway. We made full use of all the amenities the property offers:

• The large private swimming pool was a daily highlight

• The tennis court saw many fun (and competitive!) matches

• We grilled on the outdoor BBQ and enjoyed long dinners together on the covered terrace

• The fully equipped kitchen made it easy to cook for such a large group

• The games room and cinema area were a hit every evening

• The large garden and multiple lounge areas gave everyone space to relax

The bedrooms were clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged to accommodate a big group without anyone feeling crowded. Every detail of the house is clearly designed for comfort and enjoyment.

But what truly made this stay exceptional was the wonderful team behind Villa Penina Majestic. Everyone we interacted with – from the booking to check-out – was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional. Any questions or small requests we had were handled immediately and with a smile. It’s rare to find such dedicated and genuinely caring hospitality.

We are already in the process of planning our return trip next year – that should say it all!

To anyone looking for the perfect group getaway in the Algarve, look no further. Villa Penina Majestic exceeded all our expectations. Thank you for an amazing experience!

The villa surpassed all expectations, as did Portugal.

We can't stop talking about our holiday, the magnificent villa, food, friendliness of staff and efficiency of the transport.

It was wonderful, we can't praise you enough, so thank you.

We waren er van 27 april tot 4 mei met 15 personen. Oma, ouders en kinderen van jong tot oud.

Het huis was nog mooier dan op de foto’s. Genoten van de tennisbaan, jacuzzi, de verwarmde zwembaden

De bioscoopzaal overtrof onze verwachtingen.

Enige puntje. Bij weer zo’n stroomstoring is het fijn als er ook kaarsen in voorraad zouden zijn. Het was niet onze eerste ervaring met Springvillas en ook dit keer was het TOP

We are four families with children and we had an amazing stay at this villa over Easter! The villa was wonderful and perfectly suited to our group’s needs—both kids and adults had their own space and everything was easily accessible. The garden was amazing and both kids and adults loved the cinema and game room. The villa was even more stunning in person than in the photos—every detail exceeded our expectations. The location was fantastic, just a short drive to grocery stores, charming towns, and the beach.

Communication with the owners was excellent—they were incredibly helpful and provided great recommendations for private chefs, massages, and more.

We highly recommend this villa for a relaxing and enjoyable family getaway!

The villa and it's amenities exceeded the expectations of our 14 person crew even as the expectations were very high based on the websote. Also the service and catering were exceptional. Well working wifi was important as we were working for the week. I can warmly recommend this to anyone.

Unforgettable experience, we were 21 people in the house and every single person really enjoyed it, from the hospitality of the staff from Springvillas, the amenities, comfort and cleanliness, location, everything thing detail of our stay was really excepcional.

We will definitely be back, and I highly recommend to any group of people who want to spend some quality time together with loved ones and friends.

Many thanks to Springvillas!

We were 23 and spent one week in Villa Penina Majestic. We are family on the age of 3 to 70. Everbody was enjoying the stay very much. We spent most of the time in the house, the swimming pool and in the garden. When the kids became tired, they went to the cinema room and watched some movies. We also got Marisa and her team to come and prepare food for us several times, both breakfast and dinner. It was great. One 13 year old asked when we left: “When can we come again?” We all enjoyed the stay very much.

We are a family of eight, between 24 years and 89 years of age. Our son is sitting in a wheelchair, the grandparents are using a walker. We spent two realaxing weeks in this almost completely wheelchair-accessible villa.

Highlight was the heatable pool which even reached 34°C when we closed the electric poolcover overnight. Another remarkable point was the beautifully designed garden with nice views an palms offering some nice shadow.

Especially helpful for us were the large and modern showers where we could place our shower-chairs for the handicapped members of our family. Only 3 rooms still have smaller showers. Of course you have enough rooms and a lot of space in the villa.

There is a new kitchen, much more modern than on the photos. The same counts for the pool surrounding. The villa has two large diningtables (one inside and one outside on the veranda), each big enough for12 people. To have a nice gas-babeque could be another highlight.

Almost all of the mosquito-fences in front of the windows were broken and we were a bit disapointed that some windows and the door to the veranda of our bedroom were locked and we did not get a key to open them.

Of course you can play tennis, (mini-)golf, table-tennis, billiard, use the very good internet, which is accessible everywere in the house including the garden or simply relax in the hot-tub.

All in all, we can very well recommend this villa for bigger families, a group of friends including elderly or handicapped guests. We enjoyed our stay very much!

With kind regards

We’re an extended family group of 15 just back from a fabulous, once in a lifetime weeks’ stay in Villa Penina Majestic. The villa is fabulous, the outdoor space especially is impressive with lots of different areas to hang out in. The outdoor bar was a great hit also. Pool temperature was perfect and a night time dip was a regular favourite for both children and adults to cool off. Whilst we did have a few teething technical problems these were quickly and efficiently dealt with by Elena who was always on hand with a friendly and professional back up service. We also used the fabulous catering services of Marisa and her team and this was the icing on the cake for us, 4 nights of beautiful meals and bbqs at a very reasonable rate. We loved it al!!

After two years of postponements due to COVID-19 we finally could spend a week in Villa Penina Majestic.

Together with our children and their family we were 14 in total: 8 adults and 6 children.

Two of us would arrive a few hours earlier than expected. Since the villa was available it was no problem at all. After a phone call Elena was already waiting at the gate and showed them around.

Our family enjoyed the heated outdoor pool with a temperature of 28 degrees, very nice.

Also the snooker-table inside the spacious house was a great success.

The coastline is not far away and we visited a few interesting places.

After surfing at the beach in Sagres we drove to Cordoama Viewpoint, which gave us a nice view of the western coast line.

Marisa, Fatima and Miguel served us a really nice Portuguese dinner on Monday and Thursday. They organised everything and we were not allowed to assist them in any way. They did a great job.

We certainly recommend this villa for a larger group. There is enough room for everyone and the facilities are wonderful.

Thanks to Springvillas and Marisa, who made our holiday really memorable.

We have just returned from a 2 week family holiday in this wonderful villa. We are 8 adults and 7 very small children. The accommodation was perfect as each family had their own space and all the rooms were very comfortable. This villa has every thing. The heated pool is amazing with a beautiful shallow end perfect for our little children. They also loved the swings and spent a lot of time digging in the sand under the trees. The kitchen is very well equipped for self catering but could do with another dishwasher as we seemed to be constantly emptying and refilling the one available.

The supermarkets are 10 minutes away and easy to reach. Alvor is a very nice place with restaurants and shops and beautiful beaches. The marina was our favourite spot and we often had lunch at the yacht club Alvor overlooking the sea. We hired marisa and Miguel in to cook dinner for us on 2 occasions which was a truly wonderful experience allowing us adults to use the lovely bar area. We also visited zoo marine water park which is a great place for families. We were celebrating a 4th birthday that day! Our son took a skydive at skydive 7 which was literally 10 minutes away from the villa. It was a wonderful experience and one to recommend. As a family (some live in the USA) it had been 2 and a half years since we had all been together and what a truly fantastic holiday we had. I would not hesitate to recommend this villa and SpringVillas is a great company to deal with.

We spent the last week of July 2021 at Villa Penina Majestic and would highly recommend this Villa for large groups wanting to stay together. The facilities were all excellent including a heated outdoor pool, tennis court, hot tub and plenty of space in the grounds for sunbathing. The property is extensive and located in a quite location backing onto the golf course. Miguel and Amelia have been a great help and have organised everything for us even having a health technician visit the villa to complete all of our ‘return to UK’ Covid tests. We would highly recommend booking your transfers to and from the airport through Spring Villas as we all arrived in style courtesy of Fernando and his drivers at Grand Wings Luxury Chauffeurs, what a start to the holiday and at a very reasonable cost ! On two nights of our stay Marisa and her colleague came over and prepared for us a fantastic 3 course meal, we had the option to choose from an extensive menu and we would urge anyone staying at Villa Penina Majestic to organise this with Spring Villas as it was a pleasure to relax and enjoy the service delivered by Marisa, the kitchen was left absolutely spotless as well. A fantastic stay and our thanks to everyone that has made it so special.

We spend a week with a group of 14 which gave us lots of extra space. The outside porch was ideal for dining and the kitchen was very well equipped for home cooking (which we did). Large swimming pool and perfect jacuzzi. Everything in mint condition. Also fast internet (important for the children) and no noise from traffic or neighbors. A real luxury experience.

We rented this villa for a group of 14 people from three families. The property was ideal - every room was well appointed and it was a real luxury having en-suite bathrooms for each room. The outdoor area was very well designed and we loved the pool and the Jacuzzi. The kitchen was very well supplied for a large group and we appreciated the welcome package. We enjoyed the fabulous cooking of Marisa and her colleagues on two evenings, and the services of Fernando and his colleagues, who drove us to and from dinner on two evenings was fantastic. My only suggestions for improvement would be to upgrade the tennis rackets provided (the current rackets are children's size) and to add some furniture to the balconies upstairs. Miguel and Amelia from Springvillas were professional and helpful both before and after our stay

Nous avons loué la villa pour y passer Noël en famille. 16 personnes au total.

Amélia, notre contact chez Springvillas a toujours répondu rapidement et efficacement à nos questions lors de la réservation.

Elena nous a accueillis et a donné suite à nos demandes dans les meilleurs délais.

La villa propose des prestations de haut niveau, parfaitement adaptée à un groupe de 16 personnes.

Le confort (literie, salles de bains, cuisine, salon) et les équipements (piscine chauffée, jacuzzi, table de ping pong, tennis, billard etc) étaient top.

La maison est située dans un environnement très calme et verdoyant, sans vis à vis, on s'y sent parfaitement bien.

Tous les soirs, Marisa et Miguel nous livraient des repas portugais prêts à consommer, commandés à l'avance. Nous nous sommes régalés !

Nous recommandons vivement cette villa et le service de catering !

We rented this villa for the 2019 Christmas week for a family break - a total of 16 people.

Amélia, our contact person at Springvillas was very reactive and kindly answered our questions at the time of the booking.

Elena has welcome us and was available at any time to intervene when needed.

The villa offers very high level services, perfectly adapted to a group of 16 people.

The comfort (beds, bathrooms, kitchen, living room) and the equipment (heated swimming-pool, jacuzzi, ping pong, tennis, billiard table etc) were perfect.

The house is located in a very quiet, green environment and not overlooked, we felt there very well.

Every evening, Marisa and Miguel were bringing us Portuguese fresh meals that we had ordered prior to our stay. They were delicious !

We strongly recommend this villa and the catering service !

Fantastic property, pool and gardens etc beautiful, exactly as it looks on the website or even better. Pool was in use from morning till night! We had a wonderful family holiday. Has everything you could wish for. Very private and secure. Spring villas were really good. We had one or two problems, but they did their best to sort them out as quickly as possible. All in all a very memorable time.

Fantastic

Villa Penina Majestic has everything you need to feel comfortable in it. Bright and spacious rooms, very well equipped kitchen. The garden is huge, well kept, the pool and jacuzzi are fantastic. We have a lot of fun with the pool table, bicycles, tennis court.....Outdoor breakfast is a real treat. In short, a perfect holiday!!!

This villa exceeded expectations! Yes the pictures are beautiful, but even more beautiful when there in person! The facilities were great, plenty for everyone to do and well equipt! We had a marvellous time and hope to visit again! The Bells

There's not much to say that hasn't already been said before by other reviewers. The photos of this villa really don't do it justice. It was fabulous. Our welcome from Elena was warm, friendly and informative; the rooms and facilities were wonderful; and the impression the villa made on me and my fellow guests was priceless. Miguel and his team answered all our questions prior to our arrival and helped us properly prepare for our time away. My family have not stopped talking about the experience since we got home and every one of us would go back given the chance. Definitely recommend to anyone considering staying here.

Richtig schön. Alles hat perfekt gepasst. Ausserordentlich gepflegte und saubere Villa!

Villa was absolutely fantastic. Everything went smooth from start to finish. Everyone in our group had a brilliant time. The pool and hot tub were a particular highlight. The outdoor bar was well used. This was the perfect based for relaxing and exploring nearby Alvor town. Could not have asked for anymore. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back!!!

Thank you!

Great time at villa Penina majestic in February. Great villa. All you could want in one place. All questions answered before and during stay. Would definitely use Springvillas again.

Thanks for making our stay perfect.

I was full of trepidation prior to arriving at the villa. Was it too good to be true??......NO! What a fabulous place! Had a week recharging batteries blessed with fantastic weather. We were using the pool virtually all day. So much to do there and so many beautiful beaches in close proximity. Enjoyed a run around the golf course. The hosts were great and accommodating- arranged the rooms as we needed. We had a problem with the pool that was sorted within the hour. I would highly recommend the well-appointed villa... though I might not tell too many people as we want to go back! :)

Villa Penina Majestic is a really wonderful villa to spend your holiday.

It has everything you could ask for.

Beautiful and spacious rooms, all ensuite and close to each other, good for families with children.

One master bedroom is very private, a kind of own private bird nest, separated from the other bedrooms.

You walk in through a door from the pool area. This is great if you are a couple looking for some privacy.

And it has a beautiful view to the pool area.

Air conditioner in every room.

Well equipped kitchen, it had everything we needed for simple holiday cooking.

The garden is huge and really beautiful!

It is has a very private feeling, no neighbours very close.

The pool is really exceptional, biggest that we have ever seen in a private villa. Plus it is heated.

Barbecue area was very nicely located close to the dining area.

Overall a very nice experience and we would really recommend this beautiful villa!

Thank you Miguel & Springvillas!

Villa Penina Majestic has everything you need to feel comfortable in it. Bright and spacious rooms, very well equipped kitchen. The garden is huge, well kept, the pool and jacuzzi are fantastic. We have a lot of fun with the pool table, bicycles, tennis court.....Outdoor breakfast is a real treat. In short, a perfect holiday!!!

We have been in many villas so far but we've never seen and been in such a UNIQUE and absolutely AMAZING villa! This villa is giant, all bedrooms are ensuite, every room is large, the master suites with their own living rooms are a piece of art!

Outdoors you have more than you could imagine! Very large heated pool, an amazing jacuzzi, brand new tennis court with lights to play at night along with all the other lots of lights in the outdoor areas, great mini-golf for adults and children...outdoor bar..gardens, bicycles...uffff...so many things to keep both adults and children entertained.

This villa is simply TOP, the best you could get! Superior quality, outstanding facilities and fantastic hosts. Miguel from SpringVillas was always available any time we needed! Strongly recommended! Phil W.

We had a wonderful week in this villa. Lot of space, clean, everything worked, very nicely furnished and a big garden. Not only did we find all the amenities as promised, but the trampolin, table tennis bats, the tennis rackets, the mini golf clubs - everything was provided for. And a great grill in the garden.

The property managers from Springvillas were brilliant. We bombarded them with questions and they answered each one of them. They arranged whatever we asked for: two baby cots, restaurant reservation, a cook and a birthday cake ( which they then gave us as a present !) If you look for a place where you will also get a helping hand or someone recommendation when needed - this is the place to go.

Everything that was said about it was true. It even had an eighth bedroom with en suite that I didn't know about. The swimming pool, jacussi , tennis court, table tennis, pool table etc were used by our party constantly. The bedrooms and en suites were lovely and had lots of wardrobe space. The towels were changed half way through the week. For a large Villa it had everything we needed. I have found in the past, great difficulty in getting 7 bedrooms that were all on the ground floor or above. So many of the larger villas have 2 or 3 bedrooms in the basement which is not ideal especially in March, so this Villa was just superb. Two suites on the first floor and the other bedrooms on the ground floor. I have never before been in a Villa that has such a well equipped kitchen. It was incredible. Everything I needed for cooking was there and more besides.

The Villa has a back gate that leads out onto the first tee of Penina golf course. That's just about the icing on the cake.

Finally I have to say that Spring Villas were a great company to rent from. Right from the beginning of my booking, I could phone them any time if I had a query which is so important so well done, you certainly got it right.
