They greeted us with umbrellas when we arrived with a hard rain. We stayed when it happened to be my wife's birthday. We tried to buy a small cake, but they made us a good complimentary cake. Thank you so much for the good service!

Lovely 2 bedroom apartment, friendly staff, beautiful area. Gets a bit dark in the evening walking about the resort. Just as we left though, there were workmen putting in additional lighting so this should be much better in the future. Overall, we're very pleased we booked here

Amazing property. SUPER QUIET AND PEACEFUL. Staff very friendly and helpful. The apartment I had had three outdoor areas so you had all day sunshine. Spa and pool area is lovely though I didn't know how to get the steam room to work. 5 min walk to the beach, 15 min walk to the shop. The apartment came with a shopping trolley which was super handy for doing all my grocery shopping. Would go back here any time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at White Shell Beach Villas. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming throughout, responding promptly to any queries we had and being very accommodating to all our needs. The resort was extremely family friendly, and we were provided with a high chair for meals and a travel cot for our young daughter. The facilities and service were excellent, with a spacious villa which was consistently cleaned to a high standard. The pool facilities were also impressive, providing a relaxing, ambient environment. We would highly recommend White Shell Beach Villas to anyone visiting the Algarve, and we hope to visit again in future!

We were over the moon with the facility. The concierges were so helpful with dining and shopping suggestions. The food at the restaurant may be the best we have had in years!! The room was perfect with a washing machine we didn't even use, but would have if needed. The beach is a short distance away and it's incredible! There are actually two separate areas with a tunnel in between....so fun, so beautiful and amazing. The pool and jacuzzi at the facility were amazing. I really should call it a resort! We would gladly stay there again in a heartbeat!!

Great resort
We had a short, but fantastic stay. This property is very nice, clean and the apartment was roomy and cozy. We liked the decor, which is coastal minimalist 😉
The area is very quite and we slept well.
We will be back !
