Very good apartment. Clean on arrival. Welcome cleaning kit and snacks very much appreciated. Some minor issues that need dealing with. Owner informed The negative side was there was no pool to use as advertised. Tennis club membership expired when got there. Beach club pool 30 euros per day each was not affordable and was always full. Otherwise lovely place and area to stay in. Beaches and local shop are walkable but too far in the heat. Ubers excellent.

Beautiful place!
This was our second time staying at this apartment. First in 2018. Still a lovely apartment with basics provided - toilet roll, washing up liquid etc. Great location too being a short walk from the tennis club and bout 20 minutes from the beach. Owner had great communication and recommendations for us. We loved it!

Nothing provided...not even toilet paper
We were in Portugal on business, not for pleasure, so we didn't expect to find much open or available to us during Covid lockdowns, but after driving for several hours to our destination (a Vrbo in a lovely, high end resort community), we did expect to find what any traveler would need upon arrival: Use the bathroom and wash our hands. Unfortunately, that was not possible it this apartment because no toilet paper OR soap was provided! We had to get right back in our car and find a grocery store, just to use the loo! After correcting that problem, we went on to find out that no dishwasher detergent, no laundry detergent, shampoo, paper towels, salt, pepper or coffee were available! The coffee didn't matter so much because there was no WORKING coffee pot! So back to the store to buy entire bottles and boxes of the things we needed, just to exist. If a Vrbo has a dishwasher or laundry machine, it is expected that at least a small amount of detergent be left for those appliances. But that was not the case. I would expect that (at a minimum) salt and pepper would be found in the kitchen cupboard...but alas, NO. For the 5 years I have run two Vrbo's, and travelled extensively using Vrbo's. I have never seen such a poorly equipped place, nor felt so unwelcome. We tried to contact the management company several times, and got NO callback or acknowledgment. After complaining to the owner, a used and dirty coffee pot appeared IN our room two mornings later. The entire reason we chose to move away from hotels during our travels was to keep our exposure to covid low, and to avoid housekeeping services. Management never alerted us to the fact they might be coming by, and ENTERED OUR ROOM WITHOUT OUR PERMISSION IN OUR ABSENCE. This in turn made us look more closely at everything else...the apartment certainly wasn't cleaned to any quality standard. Needless to say, the property management company at Vale do Lobo is horrible. I've never had to give a review like this, but the owner should find a new management company, if he wants to continue renting this apartment.

first class appartment
This is a first class apartment in a luxury resort. Accomodation arrangements were very smooth and Andrew normally responds immediately-all facilities are exactly as described.TV EXCELLENT AS WAS WI FI.You are given membership of the Tennis Club which has a pool and restaraunt for basic meals.The beachfront PRACA has classier restaraunts but a bit pricier.UBERS are reliable and cheap although you can walk to nearest Supermarket which is very reasonable and well stocked.Recomend going to one of sea front bars/restaraunts views are stunning.For the transfer Andrew will recomend YELLOWFISH TRANSFERS-TO/FROM AIRPORT-BOOK THEM THEY ARE EXCELLENT.

Winter break
The apartment was comfortable and being January/February the heating was a must. Although the apartment was abit care worn, there was everything we could need and more to make it a home from home experience. Just a little grouch, the settee was very low to the floor and being tall, it was rather uncomfortable to sit on and get out of. We found the apartments location good for getting about easily but you do need a car. The excellent local supermarket only 5 minutes away , Quinta shopping and restaurants 8 minutes and several beaches nearby. Loule Velho is our favourite. Since we wanted a winter get away we were pleased that we chose Vale do Lobo, it is quiet and residential. We would like to visit again.

Nice apartment in a good location
The property is nicely decorated and the tv is brilliant as you have sky kids channels for the early morning risers. Nice kitchen and interiors. Would say that there could be an update on kitchen utensils and some mattress toppers to make it perfect. Overall a very nice stay and great communication with the owner.

Not impressed overall
During our stay we experienced a series of issues - screeching pipes in the main bathroom waking us up three separate times in the middle of the night, no air con or windows in second bedroom, poor security as patio doors not fully lockable and no corkscrew in the kitchen! The management company and owner resolved the pipe issue after complaining but we will not be returning to this apartment again.

I stayed in this apartment in late January and it was a really lovely apartment in a fabulous location in Vale Do Lobo. Great place to stay if playing golf, close to supermarkets, the beach and Vilamoura. Nice and clean, well equiped, good wifi and Sky Sports was an added bonus!

Not as expected!
Firstly let me say this is Vale do Lobo an exclusive expensive area I have been visiting for 25 years. While the apartment has been modernised it is of an old style Portuguese build so small dark rooms. We were going to try it for future reference for our children and grandchildren as a cheaper option.Unfortunately the apartment had not been cleaned on our arrival and we decided not to stay. A lot of walking is required to the beach and main swimming pool in the pictures (20/25 mins each way with kids especially ).If a cheap place to get your head down is all you require (ideal for golfers) then it is great but otherwise pay more and stay nearer the beach.

Every aspect of this booking has been high quality. From an original enquiry and question about the property, a simple booking process, good and accurate info about the property, excellent arrivals directions and information. The property itself is of high quality Vale de Lobo is fabulous even off season. A key aspect for us is the cleanliness of the accomodation - 😁😁 excellent! The Agents Seashell are good resolving a small problem with an ajoining property very satisfactorily. I would have no hesitation in returning. 😁😁😁

From start to finish Andrew could not have been more helpful. The apartment was perfect.
Andrew’s apartment was well located in the centre off Vale do Lobo near to the tennis centre and golf clubhouse. It was refurbished to a high standard and had all modern conveniences PLUS Wi-fi, full U.K. tv channels including Sky Sports, BT Sport and Eurosport! So you needn’t miss a thing. It was very clean and had good showers and heating. Can’t ask for more!!

Great location but accommodation needs work
The property was in a good location to reach all amenities on foot. Vale do Lobo is a brilliant resort. The accommodation however wasn’t what we expected. The cleanliness and linen freshness were not great, there was an smell of damp in the bedrooms from the linen, there was a lot of dust on surfaces and the bathroom tiles were very water marked. The outside patio was particularly dirty, tiles were stained and extremely sandy and there are lots of broken tiles around the edge. It’s not suitable for a family of 4 as there is only one single size cupboard for hanging and one chest of drawers. The 2nd bedroom only has room for 2 single beds and there is no outside window (think it’s been converted from kitchen or a large cupboard). We went in the winter and there was nowhere to eat as a family as the only table was outside and there are only 3 stools inside to use at the kitchen counter. 3 stars given rather than 2 due to the fact the cost to rent was reasonable.

Simple but Clean
The apartment was simple but clean. Everything was in good working order except for one of the 2 towel rack heaters. That doesn't sound like much, but when we were there in early December it was chilly and that one towel rack heater was the only heat we found in the apartment. We assume that most of the year, this would not be an issue. The beach was very nice and there were a bunch of beach restaurants (though not all were open in December).

A perfect family holiday in a stunning resort
We have just returned from a fantastic stay in a beautiful apartment in the resort of Vale de Lobo. The apartment was perfect for our family with two children aged 3 and 6. It is a lovely apartment with a nice terrace area , air conditioning TV and all essential kitchen things. Andrew the owner was extremely helpful with any queries prior to the holiday and always returned emails immediately. The resort was perfect for our family as there is a lovely beach and two beautiful swimming pools to choose from as well as tennis courts and restaurants. We particularly enjoyed The Creperie! It was our first time to Portugal and will definitely come back to this resort! Many thanks !
