Lovely apartment in a great location. Felt very spacious with 3 good size bedrooms & it was perfect for our 4 night stay. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor space with the small pool. Communication with the host was excellent and we appreciated an early check in on arrival. We would have no hesitation in booking here again. Thank you.

Relaxing stay

Know the area well… nice and quiet… about 20 minute walk to beach and restaurants and less than 5 minute walk to tennis club. Villa is like a home from home … comfortable and meets all our requirements for the price. Beds very comfy .

Nice size villa and layout which is really well equipped. The room sizes are all great and the patio area is private and a good size for lounging around on. Having the small pool was a welcome addition to cool off in, It’s a great location for the tennis club which is only 5 minutes away and an easy 20 minute walk to the beach and the Praça where there are restaurants and bars. The supermarket on the resort is also really well stocked and does lovely bread and pastries. It’s a little bit dated in places, but this did not detract from a comfortable week in the property.

Good location

Nice property and location. We had a couple of issues with a broken air conditioning unit and safe but these were quickly dealt with by the management company. Although there was no welcome pack a few basics like salt and pepper would have been helpful.

Easter getaway

The property was well equipped to make everyday like easy and felt like home from home. The children loved playing with the toys and enjoyed the heated pool. The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. The property was clean by there was an ant issue, particularly in the kitchen and the on suite bathroom. We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay here again.

Super stay in Val do Lobo

A great apartment with private plunge pool, spacious rooms and excellent to have 2 full bathrooms and additional WC. Well located close to the tennis club within a 30 min walks of Julia’s and the other beach side restaurants and the Praça. We stayed in peak season and used Uber instead of hiring a car which was great and reliable. Would certainly return again. We have stayed in the area before and found the lateral layout and the outdoor area to be ideal for our needs, it felt really private and was quiet.

Brilliant family holiday

This is a lovely villa set all on one level which is ideal for families. Lovely outside space with pool, nice size rooms, comfy beds and brilliant location. Short stroll from resort reception, Praca, beach. Less than 5 mins from tennis centre. We will certainly be booking again. Philippa the owner could not have been more helpful with my various annoying questions and issues with the App (tip - use a PC not your mobile).

Great family villa good location

This is a great villa which we have stayed at for two years running now. Philippa the owner is very friendly and helpful. The villa is spacious and has everything you could need. It is in a great location, just a 20 minute walk from the beach and Praca and less than 5 minutes from the tennis centre. We had some difficulty downloading the pdf key collection instructions, trying on mobile and on a PC. I’m not sure if this was a problem exclusive to us but it made check in day a bit stressful. The villa is looking a little tired in places now and could do with a little spruce up but this is probably reflected in the reasonable price. We still had a great holiday and would stay again.

The place was wonderful. It was not warm enough for the pool but we loved sitting outside or just in the dining room overlooking the lovely patio. We would highly recomment this location and the host. Be aware there are no stairs BUT you do have to walk up a slight hill to enter the property.

Lovely experience

We really enjoyed our stay. There was a strange gurgling sound from the pool which seemed to stop when the man came to clean the pool. It came back after a day or two but cleared when the pool was cleaned/filled again. We really hope to make a return visit here.

Excelent House, Excelent Resort.

Excellent house with three bedrooms and three bathrooms (two with bath). An excellent terrace to relax and have meals. The private pool is not very big but it is very good for cooling off. The distance to the beach, which is never crowded, is about 15 minutes on foot. Beautiful Resort, calm, and with a square with restaurants, bars, live music, so you don't have to leave the resort. Experience to repeat for sure.

Muy buena villa pero sucia

Ubicacion maravillosa, y si la villa estuviera bien conservada, seria fantastico, pero la limpieza dejaba mucho que desear. Utensilios en mal estado y sucios y la piscina sucia. La casa necesitaba varios mantenimientos porque ya esta un poco vieja. Cuando comentamos en la agencia que la limpieza dejab mucho que desear, nos dijeron que era por los incendios de mala manera... Aun asi, la estancia ha estado bien.

About the host

Hosted by Philippa King-Smith

Host profile image

I am a working mum of two beautiful children, a 6 yr old girl and a 3 yr old boy. My husband works in IT and I work in construction. Trips to Vale do Lobo are a way to keep us sane in the hectic life of careers and kids.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property as I love tennis (as does my daughter) and my husband loves golf. We all love the beach and the kids like nothing more than bombing in the pool. The open plan feel of the villa, as well as everything being on one level, is perfect for young children. The outside area is so private and peaceful. There's no sky bluer than in the Algarve.

What makes this property unique

There is a childrens playground across the road.
You can walk out and grab a late evening cocktail / ice cream and watch people play tennis.
Out of the peak season you won't find a more beautiful and quiet beach. Our happy place.
The crashing waves bring those stress levels right down to zero the moment you step near that beach.
