As it is an hour away from Faro Airport, it is not so busy as the other resorts closer to Faro. You can easily walk around the village. There are companies that will drop guests off along the route, or taxis and buses run in to Lagos and along the coast, car hire is not a necessity.
It is a family friendly area, and the Portuguese are very family friendly people and welcome children.
I have stayed in many holiday lets both abroad in the UK, so I see what is or is not provided in the property. Also, because I ran a guest house for more than 20 years, I know what guests like and don't like as they would either tell me or post it on Tripadvisor! I have tried to make sure my villa is a well-stocked and I hope that I supply everything that you might need for a comfortable stay.
Praia da Luz is such a lovely little village with a lovely sandy beach with lots of bars and restaurants along the front with views over the beach.
