The hotel was very local, close to the marina and shops. It had many facilities such as a bar and swimming that are easy to access and the rooms where comfortable and clean. The staff were always friendly and helpful and the hotel was calm and relaxing.

Liked · My cousin and I came on a winter break and we could not have chosen better. Marta contacted us before we even arrived with check in details and access instructions as we were arriving late. However despute lateness Helder met us there and showed us our apartment. The apartment is gorgeous, absolutely spotless with great thought given to what you might need. Aside from the usual kitchen utensils there were containers in case you wanted a picnic, there were umbrellas, beach towels and beach umbrellas. There were also fluffy robes and slippers, gorgeous bathroom products,(shower gel, shampoo, conditioner), plus vanity kits, toothbrushes, and sewing kits. The bathroom was well lit and the shower, large, and good pressure. The bed, well what can I say, it is without doubt the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, add the high thread count sheets for a five star experience. We had a lovely little balcony which was perfect for morning coffee and evening wine. A bottle of which had been left in the fridge. There is also a lovely roof terrace hidden from view but with lovely views across the rooftops. We had a couple of questions such as getting the TV to work and what pods the coffee machine took as we wanted to buy more, these were answered via WhatsApp promptly and in such a friendly way, each time with a recommendation of things to do or places to eat. Overall this really was a five star experience and, as I like Faro for a winter break I feel I have really found a home away from home. Actually that's not true, Solar Mendonca is better 🙂

    All the staff (including the kitchen and cleaning staff) were super caring and the venue was perfect for a quiet getaway whilst having top beaches just a few minutes drive away. The walk to the beach is about 20min. There is an Atlantic bike route which runs past the property also. Perfect for cyclists. The breakfast was superb with fresh orange from the farm’s orange trees. The whole venue has a very modern finish to the interior and furniture. Which naturally gives a sense of luxury and comfort.

    The whole feel of the place, and it's huge. I didn't realize the spa center was part of the price, two jacuzzi, one sauna and a steam room (the stream room ceiling tiles were partially hanging off that was quite worrying,but fab besides this) staff he was fantastic, very helpful and accommodating, breakfast was plentiful and pretty good, I asked if they had bananas as they put oranges out and he got me one, just can't fault it, the pool is open 24 hours but not heated BUT HUGE , lovely stay

    We could not fault the hotel, staff, or standards, all were fantastic. The only thing to consider is the location as it is too far from town to walk and limited footpaths on busy roads for safe walking. Need a taxi every time you leave the hotel. Even then, taxi services were amazing with great restaurant recommendations and prompt service

    OK perfect beaches amazing but that's it, the town is really just bars, restaurants and little shops. The area is lovely to walk around but there no historical points of interest. Also this really is an area for people over 60 or people going to relax at the beach or pool. There's literally no young people here lol, it's wall to wall pensioners. I googled why and its because it's a very flat area whereas most of Portugal is hilly. So no clubs or wild parties here. But it is a lovely area

There is a board walk to walk along and seats with shaded over them. Very handy to sit and watch the world and the boats go by!

    Loulé is a lovely traditional city, plenty to do & see.

    Loulé is a lovely traditional city, plenty to do & see. Lots of bars & restaurants at very cheap prices. Market day is Saturday when the city becomes extremely busy. There is the traditional indoor market which is open most days. Has fish, fruit & veg stalls and some other nicknack stalls. Has an area in the middle for food & drinks and lots of smaller shops around the side. Main street market is the fruit & veg market and then the gypsy market is a little further out. Castle worth a visit just over €3 for 2 people. Loulé easy transfer from the airport €15 euro in uber. Easily accessible to beach, Quarteira, Vilamoura both around €8 in an uber, we walked one way around 7.5 miles.

    Need a car!

    Need a car! Our main interest was the beach which is great so didn't really want to travel around. Vale de Lobo itself has no interest . A lot of building going on obviously for foreign investors. If you want to experience the real flavour of Portugal , this isn't the place. As a beach holiday with kids , that is fine. Food is repetitive and ordinary. People are friendly, ubers are cheap. The beach side restaurants have nice settings & views.
