Style Notes

Contemporary, family-friendly, fun. This accommodation is set in a leafy enclave and with landscaped gardens and pretty bougainvillea. Houses are white or cream with the area’s signature red roofs. The luxury villas and townhouses are independently owned so décor ranges from owner to owner. You can typically expect terracotta flooring, contemporary furniture and regional artisan touches such as locally-made pottery and tiles. All villas have air conditioning and their own pool with daily maid service. We love the resort’s superb facilities for young kids, the lovely outdoor shared pool, and the signature VW camper van.

Visited in October 2021
Whilst it was a lovely change from normal life during pandemic times the villa at Martinhal was not of the standard I expect from Kid and Coe villas. We took the 5 bedroom option and the size of the villa was more than adequate for the number in my party. But the location within the complex was not ideal with a road at the back of the villa and the main pool area which made for a higher than desirable noise level. Certainly in the summer the noise from the pool would have been very intrusive. The villa interior was in need of updating and was certainly not of a high spec. The kitchen was reasonably well stocked with cutlery, chinawear, etc but was very dated and in need of modernisation. The pool was surrounded with a temporary child safe fence which did not cover the whole area but this did not prove a problem as the pool was too cold for a child to use!! The discovery of a dead rodent in the pool was also a serious deterrent to swimming but was dealt with quite speedily when reception was informed. The terrace area also needed some cleaning as spillages from previous tenants had not been hosed away. The play area for a 2 and 5 year old was not very exciting or really inadequate to keep them entertained for any time. Sadly my expectations based on previous rentals with your company were not matched in this instance.
