Photos do not do this villa justice, much more spacious inside than it looks. Perfect location being a 20 minute walk to the beach. Ubers very cheap if you don’t have a car. Management agency and owner very pleasant and efficient. Would highly recommend.

Super location in Vale Do Lobo

Our family had a super stay at Gill’s villa. Perfectly positioned by the tennis club, equidistant from the Praca and the restaurants on Garrao beach. House is spacious and comfy, quiet position. Perfect stay. Gill was easy to communicate with. Also Uber was incredibly reasonable, €5 trip to Julias’s etc so we didn’t rent a car which was lovely.

Fabulous villa, fantastic host

Lovely, clean, comfortable villa presented to a very high standard. The villa sits in a quiet part of the resort, with easy access to the tennis club, praca/beach and golf club. Lovely comfortable bed, fabulous living space with the most sumptuous sofas. Well equipped kitchen with good quality equipment. Gill as a host was fantastic, quick to respond and so supportive in allowing us if needed due to flight changes to a full refund. Thankfully we were able to stay in Gill's lovely home. We hope to be back again in the future.

Great villa. Home from home.

The villa was perfect for what we wanted and could afford. Has all the creature comforts you could want on holiday which helps you relax. Has aircon but we hardly needed to use it as it stays very cool. Pool with cafe is very convenient but beach is amazing so spent most time there. All in all highly recommended.

Lovely Villa and great host

We had a lovely stay at Gill’s villa. She is a very responsive and helpful host and quick to respond. The Villa has new bathrooms and kitchen and is extremely comfortable. Kitchen is well equipped. We breakfasted on the downstairs terrace every morning which was quiet and is screened by bushes. We enjoyed use of the tennis club pool and gym as part of the package. It’s a great location- right by the tennis academy and within easy walking distance of the Praca. We highly recommend and would love to visit again. A great holiday.

Perfect

Just spent nearly 2 weeks here. The villa was spacious (with the most comfortable sofa EVER ! )for our family of 4 and the location is perfect for both the Praca and Julia’s beach. Uber’s are always available within minutes and the restaurants are superb. Two must visit places are BJ’s on music days and The Shack for the kids. The tennis academy is minutes away although the swimming pool area and gym is a bit tired so my suggestion is to head to the beach. We would definitely stay here again

Lovely house in a great location

Very impressed with the comfortable living room with quality furnishings and tasteful decor. The icing on the cake is the lovely patio in the front of the house which is very private compared with neighbouring houses, and we ate most of our meals out here. The house is a 2 minute walk to the tennis club and its pool, which was a great place to swim and relax, and it's easy to get around the resort on foot, as well as by the convenient resort buses from this house. The wifi is good and fast, and the beds are comfortable, with quality cotton linens too. All in all, a great house, highly recommended.

Fabulous fully-equipped & comfy villa - 922 VDL

My friends and I recently had the pleasure of staying at 922 Vale do Lobo and had a really wonderful time. The villa is immaculately clean and spacious with very comfortable sofas, beds and sun loungers. There are plenty of sunbathing spots to choose from on the patio, side balconies or roof terrace catering for those who love full-on sun or snoozing in the shade. And its only a 2-3 minute walk to the Tennis Academy pool and cafe which we took full advantage of. The whole resort is beautifully maintained to a very high standard and the free resort mini bus is a real bonus. Gill the owner was very helpful and friendly. We intend to return again next year.

OUr stay at Vale Do Lobo

I would thoroughly recommend staying at this Villa, it has absolutely everything that you could possibly need for a lovely relaxed holiday! We have three teenagers and they were more than happy with the home from home villa with free wifi which is a must for parents of teenagers! The villa is spotlessly clean and very well maintained. The maids come in three times a week to change beds, clean towels and clean the villa. You are able to use the pool at the tennis club for free and the food and drink there is good value for money. I would recommend hiring a car as the resort is quite big and although you can buy tickets for ther shuttle bus which is very good, we preferred the car so that you can venture out of the complex and visit other parts of Portugal. The beach at Vale Do Lobo is lovely and very peaceful. It is situated on the Praca which has a good selection of restaurants and bars. Both of my sons played golf on both of the courses while we were there and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely go back to this Villa and had a fabulous holiday whilst there.

Lovely and Very Spacious Villa

It was very spacious and very clean. The sitting room was very relaxing. The bedrooms are all large and two are en-suite. The different balconies were nice to use at different parts of the day. The villa is well situated in Val do Lobo, near tennis academy and not far from golf and beach. We had a great week and happy to recommend villa to others. No negatives.

5 Star luxury Villa

We have just come home following a one week stay at Gill's beautiful villa. Myself and my sister go to Vale Do Lobo for a quiet holiday each Sept with our elderly parents and we can honestly say that Gill's villa offered everything we could have wished for and more. We were extremely well catered for with all of the comforts of home in a stunning location and setting. Gill has been amazing and so very obliging and pleasant she is a true professional and gentle lady. We have just booked for a second stay for next Sept and we can't wait to go back again. Thank you so much Gill it has been a pleasure dealing with you.

Extremely comfortable, beautifully furnished villa

This was our first visit to Vale de Lobo and certainly won't be our last! The whole experience was excellent, such a fun place for the whole family. We loved the villa, which had everything we needed and more! It was beautifully furnished, we particularly enjoyed the large bright sofas, and huge beds! Gill has thought of everything from the lighting to the music system! The villa was exactly as described but rooms even bigger than we expected. The customer service was excellent and all our questions were answered promptly. I would definitely recommend this villa to family and friends. The children loved the pool, tennis and beautiful beaches. My husband played three rounds of golf and I read two books! One happy family! The restaurants were all lovely, particular favourites were BJ's, Julia's and Marufo's. We also visited Slide and Splash water park for a great day out. The weather was perfect, 27 to 30 degrees every day, blue sky - as you can see great fun was had by all. Can't wait to return!

A relaxing stay, and great value for money

Fab holiday staying in this deceptively spacious and spotless villa, room for adults and teenagers alike to chill. We stayed with our teenagers aged 15 and 18 plus friends - we all made multi use of the pool, gym and tennis courts at the Tennis academy literally across the road, could not have been easier and there always seemed to sufficient sun loungers free to relax for as long as you liked. Love the fact its so close to Faro airport, we had a car but didn't really need one, plenty of buses and taxis around. Really easy to get around. Favourite restaurant was Casa da Quinta, just outside the resort, awesome food and service, and dealt amazingly well with a massive group as we met friends there and it did get a bit noisy! Managing agents for 922 were a pleasure to deal with, and the owner really helpful with masses of suggestions, we just didn't have enough time to do everything - so we will just have to come back!

Lovely villa, great location

The villa was just as described and very clean and tidy on arrival. Location was perfect - quiet, and close to tennis club where we used the gym and pool. Gill, the owner, was really helpful before we went, providing us with lots of information and recommendations. We were a party of 6, with our 2 teenage children each having a friend with them. We ate in most evenings and barbecued which was great. The supermarket on site recently re-opened and was very well-stocked. We didn't hire a car so did 2 trips by taxi (Gill's recommendation of Jose and Patricia's taxi service was excellent) to supermarkets in Almancil then used the circuit bus to access the on-site supermarket. All in all, this was a great place to stay and we would definitely recommend it.

Villa 922 Vale do Lobo

Staying at Vale da Lobe was perfect, there was nothing that the owner hadn't thought of when it comes to a home . The house was beautiful but with a warm touch , 3 good sized bedrooms loads of cupboard space which is always needed , plus excellent I pod system for us music lovers and cable if you just fancy a quiet night in . Near by are Tennis Courts with a pool area perfect for children, food is good and the staff were very helpful, next to the courts was Ken Lo Resturant which we visited a few times excellent food plus take away service too . The walk to to the main restaurants is around 20 mins but worth it , every type of is there plus a wonderful beach and marvellous views . I would definitely go again , it's the first time I had been to Portugal and its won't be my last. Stewart and Jennine

Home from home

This villa is probably one of the best in the Tennis Valley area being les than five minutes walk away from the courts and pool (a little old but not too busy). Parking is just a few steps away and there is a playground for small children outside. It has a new marble topped, very well equipped kitchen. The lounge has a new suite which is extremely comfortable, cable TV and Internet. There are games and lots of good books to borrow. The bedrooms all have new quality beds with crisp linens and duvets and lots of storage. There are soft white towels for inside and beach towels for each guest. There is sunny patio with a stylish dining set and two terraces with sun beds and reclining chairs so you never miss a sun ray. Twenty minutes walk in either direction will lead you to the beautiful sandy beach with Maria's restaurant at one end and a host of others at the Praca square which has nightly entertainment. The resort is secure as it is policed by its own private security and is ideal for families giving teens freedom to roam and there is an upmarket fee paying crèche called Kangaroo near the Praca for little ones. While we stayed there were lots of premiership footballers at the Praca at night and we also met Marvin and Rochelle Humes which pleased the kids
