Overall a good trip, moved from 1 accommodation due to not meeting our requirements. Staff very helpful and glad that it didnt effect holiday. Old village is a lovely area that suits familys. The choice of 2 pools helped keep the kids entertained. 15 mins walk to beach and marina to enjoy day or night.

We had been to Vilamoura numerous occasions but first time staying in Old Village complex. Nice complex clean garden kept nice.verh disappointed to expect to pay for sun lounger at pool when staying on complex.staff at local shop weren't that friendly.Requested late check out at apartment day b4 our departure and cost I was told was €50 to be paid in cash only.we went out that evening and on return there was a note from the letting company to say we couldn't stay in the apartment the next day and they would love us somewhere else after paying my €50 cash.they tried to say I misunderstood but there was no mention of moving at the time I requested late check out.again disappointed with having to move apartments.lights in park between Old village and vilamoura were no working so very dangerous for walking through.

Everything looks okay, nice pool and good choice of restaurants to eat from.

A very good location for exploring the Algarve and 10mins from Vilamora marina

lovely complex

Beautiful location! Excellent restaurants!

Booked a studio apartment, very confined but clean, dont think Id go for that again very noisy at night time. Staff at reception on arrival werent that helpful, staff who showed to apartment were bit more helpful other than that had an enjoyable stay.

Lovely holiday, apartment had everything we needed but beds uncomfortable and propped up with wood blocks. Bathroom light didnt work. Had to pay for sunlounges everyday both morning and afternoon which we felt wrong as should be included in the price. Apart from this place was lovely, 3 swimming pools which were great. Pricey place to eat out at marina but would recommend The Brewery which was nest value and food was great.

Our ground floor apartment was close to the restaurants and pools yet was quiet and relaxing. The pathways and gardens are colourful and well maintained. The whole complex was very clean with an army of cleaners, gardeners and security guards. The restaurants and bars were OK and we really enjoyed Princess Garden - the service and food was excellent. We also really enjoyed the bakery with delicious croissants and custard tarts. The supermarket was well stocked and was open from 8am to 8pm. The pools were extremely busy - we needed to either go for opening time of 9am, or leave it until late afternoon when beds became free. The pool bars were very good. Our apartment was well equipped and was cleaned daily. I think the apartments are individually owned and managed by different management companies, so that may mean a variation in quality. The apartments close to the bars could have experienced noise, but the security guards were there to ensure noise was kept down after midnight. We had a couple of maintenance issues, particularly the lock on the terrace door which had slipped making it difficult to open and further slipped so that we could not access our terrace until the specialist repair company could attend. The scrapes on the floor showed that this had been a long term problem yet we had to make a fuss to get it sorted. There is a travel company onsite that arranges taxi transfers and trips, and we found them very helpful. We would definitely go back to the Old Village

Everything is at the complex, from markets to bakery, to good restaurants all within an easy walk to Vilamoura and great beaches. The fish market and local farmers market is also an easy walk.

Spacious and bright studio apartment with everything provided, a bright clean kitchen and bathroom with a small sitting room leading out to a balcony complete with table and chairs and Sun lounges. the complex was very well maintained with beautiful gardens and three lovely pools.

We arrived very late with the security guy giving us the keys. Lovely resort, good pool and eateries on the complex. Plenty parking. Close to the Golf course and local town. Small road train does a circuit taking you to the town. There are only two points I feel were negative. If any of your party has mobility issues, you can not access the communal areas as there are steps everywhere. Unless there were provisions I didnt see , a wheelchair would be impossible to use. My second negative is the charging for sunloungers around the main pool area. €3 a day or €1.50 for half a day. That is unacceptable. We were fortunate as our 2 bed apartment ground floor had garden access to the pool. The patio had 2 sunloungers. Room 20A

Absolutely beautiful complex. Kept very well. arrived to a spotless room that looked recently refurbished. Cleaners came by every other day but each time we were in (13month old). Got clean towels & toilet paper from them. Studio apt we had no balcony or terrace. We weren't told we would have one but I didn't think to look out for one. Very helpful front desk for booking airport transfer and a dental appointment. Some nice restaurants on site. Lovely steak on stone from princess garden :-) we wouldn't rate zanzibar. O cafe nice for lunch. Pools are lovely, cold! not a lot of space around them though, very busy at end of july. Good shop on site with lovely fresh bread & croissants in the morning :-) you could stay on the complex for a week no bother. We took a couple of trips to the busy beach (20e for beds) and the marina for lunch and a wander. Vilamoura not for me however, overpriced, full of english/irish bars, Indian & chinese restaurants even a pizza hut on the marina. You could have been anywhere it didn't feel one bit Portuguese. Such a pity old village isn't in a nicer part of the algarve, but I would certainly recommend it to someone who likes vilamoura
