Ideal Homes Portugal - Vila Sol

Experiência fantástica: While Ideal Homes Portugal offers a wide range of properties and appears well-established, it's important for buyers to know that they primarily operate in the Algarve region — not across all of Portugal. This can be misleading to international clients who expect listings in areas like Lisbon, Porto, or the Silver Coast based on the company name. It might be more accurate for the brand to reflect their true geographic focus — perhaps “Ideal Homes Algarve” would set clearer expectations. Transparency around location coverage is key when buying overseas, especially for first-time investors looking at different regions of Portugal.

Experiência fantástica: Setting up my mortgage and purchasing the property could not have been easier. Alejandro was amazing. Always available to help with any documentation and answer any questions. The whole process was quick and easy to follow. A fantastic service.

Experiência fantástica: Amazing Service. Was such a pleasure to work with Alejandro. Thank you very much.

Experiência fantástica: We used Alejandro to support with a mortgage on a property. He found us a good rate and supported us with the process all the way through the purchase. Would recommend

Experiência fantástica: I dealt with Alejandro to organise my mortgage, as a first time purchaser in Portugal organising this remotely from the UK he made everything simple. He was super responsive, acted really quickly and followed up on everything to make sure we hit deadlines. I stumbled across him via a Google search but will be recommending him to anyone needing a mortgage there! Thank you

Experiência fantástica: This was a great experience - I would really recommend working with Ideal Homes Portugal. Buying a property (and for me the first time outside of my home country) can be full of unknowns and pretty stressful. From the beginning, Alejandro was super helpful and professional - he explained all the details and nuances I wasn't familiar with, and his correspondence was very clear. I also appreciated that he regularly nudged me on Whatsapp to signpost incoming emails I needed to respond to. Thank you!

Experiência fantástica: I’ve been speaking with Ideal Homes Portugal and honestly, the experience has been top class. From the first conversation, the team made everything feel straightforward and relaxed without any pressure. Luke, Caroline, Elliot, Andy and Vanessa have all been genuinely helpful and easy to talk to, which makes a huge difference when you are looking at something as big as buying abroad. What stood out to me is how much they actually help with. It is not just about finding a property. They offer support with booking flights, sorting accommodation for your visit, and they have everything in-house like mortgages, legal advice, currency exchange and even help with furniture. It makes the whole process feel a lot more manageable, especially when you are coming from the UK and trying to figure it all out. If you are thinking about property in Portugal, I would definitely recommend reaching out to them. The level of service has been quality and it has felt like working with real people who actually care.

Experiência negativa: dissapointing handling of our needs and requirements. Patronizing and ignoring behaviour on their entire team involved. Do find other great agents to work with that will put your interest above their own.

Experiência fantástica: The Ideal Homes Portugal Team were nothing less than outstanding from start to finish, from when I stepped off the plane to finding me accommodation to stay while in Portugal, Chris, Caroline and Michelle were there with me through the viewing, buying and completion process of the beautiful apartment they helped me find, I can’t thank them enough for making what seemed a daunting experience of purchasing a property aboard so enjoyable. Thank you .

Experiência fantástica: I had an exceptional experience with Ideal Homes Portugal, thanks to Chris White's unparalleled expertise in the Algarve property market and the guidance and advice of his brilliant team. From the moment I reached out, Chris provided invaluable insights, guiding me through every step of the buying process with patience and professionalism. His deep knowledge and obvious passion for the region, and genuine care for me, confirmed that I’d made the right choice in working with Ideal Homes Portugal. His team went above and beyond in their service delivery and exceeded my expectations at every turn. I highly recommend Chris and Ideal Homes Portugal to anyone looking to invest in the Algarve.

Experiência fantástica: Uma Empresa de Excelência e de um Profissionalismo de se lhe tirar o chapéu, a minha curta passagem por esta Empresa foi Excelente. Uma equipa Super Profissional e muito bem formada com uma serviço 5*, muitos Parabéns e que continuem o Excelente trabalho

Experiência fantástica: Incredible staff. They get the job done. They're informative and helpful so knowledgeable about the Algarve. They have some amazing properties at their disposal. A good and trusted real estate agency in Portugal. Highly recommend.

Experiência fantástica: Great people and very professional

Experiência negativa: Sinceramente acabou por ser a pior agência com quem alguma vez tive de lidar, muita falta de seriadade e profissionalismo nos momentos que foram necessarios. Os própios empregados bloqueam-te em vez de resolver alguma situação. Para não comentar os tristes episodios que passei também. Um negócio onde realmente o que lhes interessa é o dinheiro e não o bem estar do cliente.

Experiência fantástica: Mark of Ideal Homes looked after us very well and showed us various properties and helped us secure a deal on our preferred choice. Top man

Experiência fantástica: Staff very helpful and friendly

Experiência fantástica: This real estate agency is a leader in the Algarve assisting expats in finding a perfect retirement or vacation home or income property. They tailor your tour to your particular wants and needs. My first outing today with Wade was really productive.

Experiência fantástica: Recently returned from a holiday renting a villa from Ideal Homes and was a fantastic experience all round. Firstly during booking they were happy to answer any questions very quickly and also offered to arrange transfers whom were waiting for us at the airport. Upon arriving at the Villa we were met by Tarique who showed us around and how everything worked. The big difference compared to other bookings I’ve made in the past was the personal touch. Tarique gave us information about what to do in the local area (including offering to book restaurants etc. for us) and provided his mobile number so we could contact with any query and he responded immediately. The villa itself was superb. Immaculately presented and clean with everything we needed. Fantastic gardens, pool and hot tub all of which were maintained with visits from the pool company. Overall a fantastic holiday and I’ll definitely be booking with Ideal Homes again.

Experiência fantástica: Alojamento muito bom. Lugar muito calmo, limpo e bem organizado

Experiência fantástica: Nervous doesn't begin describe how I felt when I started the process of buying a second home in a country I've never been to and with a company I'd only spoken to on the phone. But 1 year ago I entered into a contract to buy an apartment in Lagos in the Algarve, and I live in California. The Ideal Homes team made everything go smoothly from start to finish. Every time I got worried, they assured me that they had it covered. They are a team of true professionals and are very good at communicating to international buyers. I finally visited our property last week and am happy to say that it exceeded our expectations. As I write this I just secured my second purchase with Ideal Homes in the Algarve... I'm back for more. If you're on the fence, doing research and wondering if they can be trusted for this investment, my experience shows a resounding yes. Thank you to Chris White and the entire team at Ideal Homes Portugal!

Experiência fantástica: Das nennt man mal eine positive Überraschung. Im Vorfeld haben wir überlegt, ob wir bei Ideal Homes buchen sollen, da der Emailkontakt eher schwierig war. Auf Mails wurde nicht bzw. mehrere Tage nicht geantwortet etc. Wir haben uns dann doch dafür entschieden, weil die Unterkunft einfach die aller schönste war. Und dann waren wir ausgesprochen positiv überrascht. Schon 1 Woche vor Anreise wurden wir per WhatsApp kontaktiert und die Gastgeber waren auch jederzeit erreichbar. Die Unterkunft war ein absoluter Traum! Blitzsauber, hochmodern ausgestattet und 100% wie beschrieben.

Experiência fantástica: Great company excellent content guidance and professional. Will take the guessing out of buying a property in Portugal

Experiência fantástica: Amazing service from start to finish. Can't recommend Ideal homes enough!

Experiência negativa: Purchased a unit in Vines development which should have closed months ago. I have not had a single communication from them in regards to delays or to checkin. If it wasn't for the lawyer I wouldn't know what was going on with our unit. Absolutely no value from Ideal Homes

Experiência fantástica: .Thank you for your email .I'm interested O N L Y in a farm with over 10Ha of land .Thank you for N O T sending other advertisements

Experiência fantástica: We used Ideal Homes very recently, mainly dealing with Chris White and Cristina Guimarães the mortgage advisor. They were professional from start to finish, helped and guided us throughout the entire process, they even performed magic that no other agent could do! They helped with recommending lawyers, builders, architects all very knowledgeable. Not only do the sell properties they also rent, which this of course is something we will do in the future with Ideal Homes. We finally moved into our property a couple of months ago and couldn’t be happier, thanks guys xx

Experiência fantástica: Hi. I bought two Portuguese properties from Ideal Homes in the last year, one for purely investment purposes and the other for investment with some family use. Ideal Homes know the market very well. Chris and his team are very professional, informed, not pushy like many agents and most of all trustworthy. They have a network of local lawyers, architects and builders to help solve any problems that might arise. I expect to do more business with them in the future and would recommend them to anyone searching for their dream home in Portugal. CMG, Ireland
