Really nice accommodation in a lovely location. Short walk to beach and restaurants etc. Very helpful and communicative host. We had a great time and will be revisiting.
The location in perfect, just 5 minutes walking from the beach and, for who has kids, 2 minutes from the playground. The house is nice and the host, Stephanie, is amazing.

We had a wonderful time in Vale do Lobo! The house is perfectly located, 5 minutes walk from the beach and all the restaurants. There is plenty of room in the house for up to 6 people, and it is very well equipped with everything you need. The only possible improvement: make the beds more comfortable.

This property is very well situated, it's a short walk to the beach, restaurants and the golf club. Having two outside seating areas was great for making the best of the weather at the end of October. The inside has a spacious sitting area, the bedrooms are a good size and having a full bathroom on each floor was a bonus. The communication from the owner was really detailed and helpful.

The Villa was perfect for our extended stay in Vale Do Lobo. The location is a very short walk to the beach, the Praca and the golf facilities. We especially loved the variety of outdoor spaces including two very sunny terraces, a large back patio and front dining space. From the upper deck you can see a bit of the ocean and hear the waves. The Villa is well-equipped with everything you need. The check-in process and communication with the host was seamless. They were helpful in providing many suggestions for restaurants, etc in the area. I can't wait to return.facilities.

A lovely position and a good townhouse with generous outside spaces. Very close to the Praça and beach and an easy walk to the supermarket. We rented for two friends but only two towels left even though rental property takes six. No welcome pack and some aspects tired. The front door lock is old fashioned and difficult (required detailed explanation how to work) and all shutters are manual with old bolts. However the house is clean and tidy and we had a lovely few days relaxing with great weather.
We can not say enough great things about our experience at Stephanie's home.
We were looking for a place to stay for a couple of months to get to learn more about Portugal (weather, people, visual feel).
The location was perfect. It allowed us to visit most of the Algarve, parts of Spain.
The home was comfortable, had all of the amenities that we needed and was located near many wonderful restaurants and the beach was fabulous.
We would certainly recommend staying here and are planning on coming back soon.

Great place to stay on the Algarve
Vale do Lobo has that something about it to make a special holiday. Its clean, well planned with plenty to do as a family. This property couldnt be better postioned, only a short stroll to the main Praca and the beach, meaning the car can stay put all week if you choose to.
The house was modern, immaculately clean and well looked after with a good array of facilities and the communication with the owners prior to arrival was warm and informative. The seating area to the rear is plentiful for civilsied family barbecues or early evening G&T's and the inclusion of freeview and the ipod dock welcomed by the teenagers.
We purchased the weekly pass for the Rotunda swimming pool complex at 80?and split our time between there and the beach.
We had some excellent meals out notably La Terrazza in the Praca, Marias a 15 minute stroll along the beach to the left and Julias a short drive aaway at Praia do Garrao Nascente.
We'll definetly look to go back to this property for a fun relaxing holiday

Thank you for taking the time to write such a nice review Adam. I am so glad that you and your family had a good holiday and that our house provided everything that you needed. I look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
Our week here was absolutely glorious! The villa is really lovely and a great location – it really is just a short walk down to the Praca.
The house has everything you need – a small kitchen quite well stocked, dining area (inside and out) along with a very comfortable lounge. The various outside spaces are also lovely and give several options for sitting outside.
Due to delays with our flight, we arrived after midnight and getting into the front door was quite tricky and we were worried we were quite loud for the neighbours. Stephanie had given very detailed instructions however we still struggled with the lock.
My husband and I slept in the double room upstairs however the bed was a little hard for us so we had to move to the twin bedroom (which also had the advantage of nicer bed linen). Wardrobe storage in the bedrooms is great – a huge amount.
The communication with Stephanie was good – there were a few things we needed to let her know about and she responded quickly and provided us with a huge amount of information before we arrived.
The only suggestion I really have as an 'improvement' would be a welcome basket. This is the first rental property we have stayed in where one was not provided – not even milk - which would have been lovely when we arrived so late at night, however, this was never mentioned nor promised so I should not have expected it.
Overall a lovely stay. Thank you

Die Unterkunft war wie beschrieben. Sehr sauber und ordentlich. Die Lage und das Resort sind traumhaft, Die ansässige Gastronomie leider in der Vorsaison teilweise geschlossen und die, die offen sind etwas teuer.
Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin tadellos!
Gerne mal wieder.
Óptima localização, espaço exterior para refeições, distribuição dos quartos muito boa

Dear Chris, thank you for taking the time to review my holiday home. Good to hear that you had everything you needed. Sorry that the front door lock was awkward; I know there is a certain knack to using it but I will get the carpenter to take a look. Best wishes. Stephanie
Das Haus ist Teil einer Ferienanlage, die sehr gepflegt ist. Die Häuser stehen dicht bei einander, was uns zu unserer Reisezeit. ( Mitte Juni) nicht gestört hat. Es war sehr ruhig .
Das Jaus verfügt über mehrere Ebenen mit einer Dachterrasse, auf der es sich abends schön sitzen lässt.
Wir waren zu fünft. Die Küche ist funktional eingerichtet. Es ist alles etwas eng, aber sauber. Die Türen schließen nicht mehr alle einwandfrei, was uns aber nicht gestört hat
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights. The owner was very helpful and made the check in process really simple. Everything was in the villa that we needed, it was spacious and clean. We would definitely stay again

Wir hatte zwei herrliche Wochen, man geht ca. 5 min bis zum Strand und den Restaurants. Das Haus hat eine Terrasse hinten, einen Balkon und eine Dachterrasse, also für jeden Geschmack etwas. Stephanie war sehr hilfsbereit! Die Küche ist etwas klein, aber OK, und man kann im Umkreis sehr gut Essen gehen. Würden wir auf jeden Fall wieder buchen!

La única pega que tuvo es que estaba anunciada piscina en la información general y no tiene. La piscina más próxima es pública y de pago.
El permiso de aparcamiento en la zona es para un solo coche. Nosotros íbamos con dos y tuvimos molestias para aparcar el segundo coche lo más cerca posible en una zona "libre".
Stephanie was a very helpful host and made our short weekend break trouble-free.
Ideal location and everything we needed for our stay.
Thanks, we will definitely be back.

About the host
Hosted by Stephanie Brown
My husband and I live in Poole, England. We are keen golfers and love the golf courses in the Algarve. In fact we first went to Vale Do Lobo for a golf holiday and fell in love with the resort, particularly the beach.
Why they chose this property
We love Vale Do Lobo because of the great facilities at the resort and the beautiful beach. It takes us less than 6 hours to get there, door-to-door from leaving our house in England, which is a real bonus! The Portuguese are really warm people and the golf is great. And you don't even need to leave the resort for anything if you don't feel like it; complete and utter relaxation!
What makes this property unique
Vale Do Lobo resort has everything you need for a great holiday and everything is on the doorstep of our house. The fantastic beach, resort pool and restaurant area are all only a 3 minute walk away. The resort is clean and very safe for families. And it is only a 20 minute drive from Faro airport.
