A lovely spacious villa with everything you need. Great location and in a lovely quiet area. Walkable to the marina . Great place for a family vacation.
My family and I had an amazing stay at Villa Amarela! We loved the beautiful backyard and pool, it was amazing to have meals outside and to relax on the loungers during the day. The kitchen was fully equipped for all our cooking needs and the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and clean. The villa was a short distance away from the beach and also the Old Town. We also really appreciated how quiet and serene the neighborhood is. We highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a stay with with their family in Lagos!
The host was phenomenal. The house was the best equipped we have been in. The holiday touch with the seasonal chocolates, wine, bubbly and snacks on arrival was a welcome and much appreciated surprise.
House very conveniently located 15 min walk to beach and 20 min walk to town. Pool area is sheltered from wind and great place to relax. April was the perfect time to be there: wildflowers everywhere, really nice weather with warm days perfect for walking and using the pool and cool nights. Still shoulder season so no crowds. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay! House very well maintained, spacious and comfortable. Owner and caretaker extremely responsive to all questions and needs.
Great property, felt very at home with our dog who was also welcome. We had a very special Christmas and would highly recommend this villa and location. Thanks Jenny!!
Jenny is a real great host. The communication was real good and we got all informations before our trip. The villa is very close to the city. We took an uber or our car to get to the city. Also a supermarket was very close. We had a great trip and enjoyed Portugal.
Jenny's villa is in a great location, a short drive or walk to the Marina. Located in a quiet residential neighbourhood, it's an ideal place for a short or long-term stay, with great outdoor space to relax in the sunshine. A selection of drinks and food were waiting for us when we arrived - a very thoughtful and appreciated gesture. Jenny was very easy to get in touch with and extremely helpful when we had any questions. Highly recommended.

Thanks so much Stephen and Kirsty. You were wonderful guests and I enjoyed exchanged messages with you! Most importantly you had a great holiday and I’m glad I could help.
🙌🙌
We have been renting villas for our summer holidays for several years and I can say that Jenny's villa was the best yet. It had plenty of room for the nine of us and a wonderful pool. The sheets were changed and the pool cleaned after our 1st week and the gardener attended to the garden on a couple of occasions. Jenny is very quick to respond to any queries or requests. Overall a wonderful holiday in a fantastic property.

Charles - I'm so delighted that you and your family enjoyed a great holiday. Your words are really kind and really appreciated.
Hope to see you again. Enjoy the rest of summer!
Jenny
The Villa is an excellent holiday home, close to beach and town, though I recommend taxi if you walk back in the dark :-) and your own pool.
Our young more or less lived in the pool when we were chilli'n around the Villa. And just hanging around would hav been enough for us.
Communication with Jenny was effortless and to the point.
Amazing area, polite people and a lot to see and Villa Amarela was really nice home away from home.
Thanks for a great Holiday

You're welcome back any time Mikael and family. Thanks so much for staying and I'm so pleased you had a lovely time.
Cheerio for now, Jenny :)
This place is amazing! It is perfectly located a 5min drive to Meia Praia, 10 mins to downtown Lagos and walking distance to Algarve Watersports (for kiting, wakeboarding and the like).Kitchen is well equipped, dining table seats 10 - great for a family holiday. Charcoal BBQ right next to kitchen. Washerdryer made family laundry easy.Rooms were comfortable and there was one more than I thought (there is a master suite downstairs, a master suite upstairs and two twin rooms upstairs with a shared bathroom).Great outdoor spaces - rooftop deck, 1st floor deck, pool deck and grassy area for kids to play.Wifi works great in living room - we were able to do work calls as needed.Would return!

Wow - thank you so much for your wonderful review. I hope you've had a lovely rest of your summer. You'd be welcome back at Amarela any time :) x
Très belle maison. les chambres sont belles et grandes. Belle piscine.Le contact avec la personne référente est facile en cas de soucis.Bien située à environ 20 min de la plage et proche à environ 10 min de commodité.Je recommande
Tout depuis le début était positif que ce soient les contacts avant d'arriver avec Jenny (la propriétaire), Isabel (la gestionnaire sur place), très sympa panier d'accueil, TV avec toutes les chaînes et Netflix, toutes les bonnes adresses de restaurants et autres activités ... bref, un très bon séjour... villa en ligne avec la description et les photo's , entretiens réguliers (nettoyage et changement des serviettes et des draps), toutes les commodités nécessaires - A RECOMMANDER VIVEMENT!
Un peu plus de soleil aurait été le bienvenu - séjour Janvier/Février 2024 -
We had a great time visiting our family - first time since 2019.
Jenny's communication was first class - as was the villa
(including our wee welcome pack - thanks for that, much appreciated!)
Une experience tres réussie. Une naison tres bien entretenue, menage, jardin, piscine. Une maison tres bien placee.
3 semaines que nos enfants ont adoré.
We rented this villa for a holiday with our two daughters, their partners and our young grandson and we had a great time. We loved the location, in a quiet area on a hill just outside Lagos town. We drove from Faro but one of our daughters chose to take the train and they really enjoyed the journey; the track runs along the side of Meia Praia beach ending at Lagos Marina. From there it is a 15 minute walk up the hill to the villa. It is a steep hill and the walk down is faster!
The villa is very nicely presented and well equipped for 8 people with a good sized pool (heated by solar panels) ........and the satellite TV with DVD player was very useful for our grandson! We really appreciated the welcome pack of provisions and the pile of beach towels left for our use.
Although we had a car we chose to walk locally, into Lagos town via the marina or to the nearby Meia Praia beach (6Km of lovely sand). However, the car was very useful for visits to the Pingo supermarket a few minutes drive away and for trips further afield.
The owners were very good at answering our questions and providing information prior to our visit, and there were well organised folders of information in the villa when we arrived.
We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing holiday in lovely surroundings.
Thanks so much for your review Phillippe. You and your family are welcome anytime! And I really appreciate you taking the time to review. Thanks so much!
