Stunning 4 large bed 4 bath + heated pool nr Garrao, Ancao beaches + Val do Lobo

We had a very enjoyable stay. We were met by Mickey and given a tour. Everything was great except an unforeseeable event were a pump in a dishwater went bad and we had a water leak in the house. but it was handled by mickey and the owner and we had it fixed promptly. They also gave us a bottle of Champaign and free heating of the pool. We were impressed with this gesture.

Property is very good , good location , pool was heated for us and the kids loved it. Property manager was super helpful. Suggest some more towels for the pool as the property doesn’t have a dryer and on the damper days it was a real struggle to get everything dry. Only blip was the cleaners didn’t leave all bedrooms open for us which was a pain. Overall very good and would highly recommend.

Overall we had a lovely family stay in this villa. It was very spacious and well equipped, and the pool deck area in particular had everything you could need in terms of space and outdoor furniture. Two large fridges was also a very nice addition for a large group. Just to note that the location was not exactly as shown on the map (as I now see is mentioned by a previous review) which was a shame as we thought we had booked for a quite specific location we had stayed in before. It’s approx a 10 minute walk away so not a huge issue l, but feel it still would be best to get this updated for anyone with mobility issues perhaps.

Great stay. Villa is excellent. Living space and outdoor pool area are ideal for families. Well resourced so you should find every you need. Kitchen and bathrooms, whilst completely fine, could perhaps do with sprucing up as were looking a bit tired. Communication from agent was excellent and met us on arrival. Location is great between VDL and QDL and a short walk to the beach. The map provided by website suggested villa is in Dunas Douradas but is in fact in Villa Alvas which a bit further from beach. Not a major issue and probably my fault for not checking location in more detail. All excellent generally though and we had a lovely time ?

It was a lovely spacious property. Clean and comfortable. Great little pool and a short Uber ride or 30 min walk from the beach and ameneties.

A very nice and spacious villa which was well equipped.

A lovely villa, a great size for the 5 us and any additional visiting friends. The area outside was great and everyone loved the pool. The kitchen was a good size and having 2 large fridges and as a bonus. We used Uber to travel about and it was only a few euros to go to the beach. Very easy as in previous years I spend a lot of time getting teens around. The location meant it was easy to do, but it’s not really a 15 minute walk to the beach, more like 30.

We had the most amazing week in Almancil. The villa was just perfect for us(family with 3 children ,ages 9/14/15). I truly can not recommend it enough! Great facilities, amazing swimming pool ,within 20 minutes walk from the local beach Plaia de Garrão. Mickey was great accommodating us with check in and check out timings. Thank you Portugal for giving us unforgettable memories ?

We are two families with two 10 year old boys. We paid for the pool to be heated and it was dreamy, and Mickey the property manager was very accommodating. Plenty of clean bath and beach towels. The house and location worked well for us but perhaps we are used to certain amenities (salt and pepper, oil, spices, garbage bags, more than one roll of toilet paper per bathroom - we purchased these and left for the next visitors but not sure if the cleaning staff takes these away after each rental…?). Note that two of the beds are most probably doubles and one is a king (in US terms - 52” vs 59” approx - I measured with my iPhone!).

Had a great week at villa with family. Very clean, private and spacious and had everything you would need for a villa stay. Pool and outside space was private and quiet with plenty loungers and seating for outdoor dining. Everything worked well and Mickey the property manager was very helpful. Check in and out process was very easy, even though our flight to Faro was late in arriving very late at night. You need a car but it is only a 5 min drive to both Vale do Lobo and Quinta de Lago golf courses, restaurants, shops and bars. Electric gates made it feel even safer. Would definitely stay again.
