Location was perfect for us who wanted to spend our days on Praia Azul. For breakfast, the family gave us a basket of eggs from their own chickens on the farm – so great!

"Vila Lauro is a wonderful place to stay, offering a serene and peaceful atmosphere with a touch of resort-like charm. The property features a pristine swimming pool and immaculately clean rooms and bathrooms. The expansive garden, lush with vibrant green turf, citrus and plum trees adds to the tranquil setting. Breakfast is served in a beautiful glass room with garden views, and the meals were both delicious and generously portioned. The villa also includes a well-equipped kitchen, a barbecue area, a self serving bar, and a loft, providing plenty of amenities for a comfortable stay. The owner was incredibly responsive and offered excellent recommendations for anything we needed. I highly recommend Vila Lauro for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable retreat

What an excellent stay! The room is what I would call a "standard" hotel room. It has a balcony which is nice, bed was comfortable, good pillows (for us, as we don't like them too big!). The included breakfast is basic but adequate, the staff (particularly the gentleman who checked us in) were wonderful. And to to it off there was an amazing drummer band parade on the street right outside our room - honestly the best surprise ever and we had the very best view of it imaginable!! What a highlight

Exceptional. Fabulous breakfasts. Large, well appointed rooms with very flexible sleeping arrangements for our large family group of adult children! Well located for surfing, skateboarding, swimming & chilling. ( although the surf wasn’t great during our stay!) Lovely rooftop terrace. Stunning interior design. Fantastic staff - very friendly, welcoming & incredibly helpful & prepared to ‘go the extra mile’. Great cocktails & sundowners.

Beautiful villas with private pool which are well appointed and well equipped. We stayed in the villa green with a family of 4 and it was the luxury and private space we hoped for. Having access to the hotel lobby, bar and pool (if you are over 16 years) was the cherry on top as it was peaceful and child free. The staff are all amazing and so friendly. Nothing is too much trouble! A perfect 5 star holiday place , we were blown away !

Noah is perfect for a relaxed family holiday - even with smaller children. The staff is friendly, the location with seaview is amazing and the whole surf house is designed in a great style. They offer a lot of activities like surfing of course, yoga, skating or a barbecue at the terrace overlooking the sunset. The infinity pool was quite big and the water was heated. Santa Cruz is a really nice little town - we rented bikes at Noah's to explore the surroundings. We enjoyed it a lot and definitely wanna come again.

The staff were all lovely and super helpful. The food was delicious - breakfast every morning was a great start to the day. The local village is lovely and it's so close to Lisbon and other places worth visiting.
