Resort: Gale in Algarve
With a golden sandy beach stretching for five kilometres and edged with a backdrop of rugged cliffs, the small resort of Gale has become increasingly popular over the past few years. A number of beachside bars and cafes are dotted along the coastline, ideal for a spot of lunch while you listen to the sound of waves. Most of our villas here are in quiet residential areas, with more restaurants, mini-markets and bars as well as a large supermarket. Shoppers will love the proximity to the Algarve Shopping mall, while those looking for something a bit livelier will find the bustling larger resort of Albufeira is only a few kilometres away.
"We all loved every minute of our holiday and loved the villa, everything was perfect "
Mrs Smith, , July 2011
"Wonderful villa - absolutely spotless on arrival. "
Mr Swindles, Bolton, August 2010
"Wow! what a fantastic holiday... you know how it is when you are booking your family holiday, especially when you fancy a change of location but are completely unsure of where to go. Well we decided to go for a villa this time and luckily chose Villa Simoes in Gale, Albuferia. The villa was spotless, and the child safety gates were a great relief. There is even a gate leading down the stairs outside to the pool area. There is an outside bbq just near the kitchen so we stayed in a few nights and cooked ourselves. Also, what we thought was absolutely fantastic was the closeness of the supermarket. It is literally a 5 min walk away.... and its a really nice supermarket. We ordered a taxi some nights and went in Albuferia town, it was busy and lively and perfect for the kids. The weather was perfect, (got a great tan). An overall unforgettable, completely enjoyable, holiday and it is that good we are booking again this year! Thank you very much..... "

"Absolutely first class experience. Whilst I know that the prices we paid for the holiday were discounted and this will undoubtedly have had an impact on my assesment, the Villa far outweighed my expectation both in terms of standard and location. James Villas arranged the flights, airport tf's to and from destination airports and the welcome pack meant that we could have a brew as soon as we arrived. Important given that there had been a 2 hour delay on our outward flight. There was even a stair gate present at the Villa and a child seat was arranged on my behalf on the transfer coach. these little touched make it a lot easier to holiday with a small child.
Assuming a similar price package is available next year, I will definately look to arrange my holiday with James Villas. "
Mrs Metcalfe, Whitby, July 2008
"I stayed in Villa Simoes in Gale Portugal with my eighteen year old daughter, it was the first time in 24 years I had been away without my husband. I would like to say how welcoming, safe, immaculate and accessible the Villa, bars, and shops were. We have been with James Villas a number of times and would thoroughly recommend them to friends.

Mrs Phillips, Edinburgh, June 2008
