This was a late booking for a couple, the studio was very spacious even included a washing machine if needed, 3 seperate pools with small pool bar. Supermarket on site and it only took 10 minutes to wal to the marina at the centre of Vilamoura, I cant recommend this property highly enough and will definately be back next year with the extended family, tourist train stoped just outside the complex and was worth a trip on the 1st day to see exactly were everything is in the resort, i think there was at least 4 seperate places to eat and the food was excellent , “ specials” of a really high quality and portions very good

Last min booking and what a treat. The apartment is spacious if a little dated and overlooking the pool. Very clean and lots of choice for a quiet drink and food. Supermarket on site. All staff were friendly and the gardens are kept lovely

I booked 2 apartments, one for us and one for my sons family. We were given 2 very different apartments. Ours was below standard expected whereby our sons was lovely. Ours was dirty, old, ill equipped etc.upon checking they only had me as booking one apartment so I feel they just found us an empty one. We couldn’t use kitchen as work surfaces were unhygienic, tiles were cracked and filthy. We were supposed to have garden view but had road view. Apartment was dirty and never cleaned the ten days we were there. Staff in the office refused to listen and then offered to move us after a week but couldn’t guarantee when ? The Old village is beautiful, we had booked to attend a wedding in the village. But the apartments vary greatly. As we booked via Expedia and had been assured we would receive 2 apartments the same, we are not happy that ours was not as we booked or payed for.

Stayed at the old village for 6 nights at the end of August. 2 adults and a 5 year old stayed in studio apartment which was more than adequately sized to act as our base. The studio was nicely decorated and very well equipped. It overlooked the ‘Dolphin Pool’ which was surprisingly quiet and relaxing for the time of year - beautiful! The Old Village was everything you would expect from a village, a choice of restaurants and bars, a supermarket, bakery, play area for children. Wouldn’t hesitate in recommending it to couples and families alike. However, if I was to be really picky, I was disappointed that inflatables weren’t allowed in the pool.

Large well designed apartments surrounded by well kept gardens. Several restaurants/bars and three swimming pools. Our apartment was very spacious but in need of repair in places and badly needed some new furniture. Nevertheless,we had a stunning view from our private sun terrace and felt little need to struggle to the public beaches.

Wonderful little mini break. Fab location, close enough to walk to the marina. The location itself is very pretty in fact we've just booked to get married here next year. Great service throughout

This is our third time to the Old Village as we love it, but the first time booking through hotels.com. Everything was great except for one incident. On Wed night at around 8.30pm we were in our studio which was 12A Village Sq. We were getting ready to go out. A young lad of about 15 or so let himself into our house with a key. My husband was startled and asked what he was doing. The lad got a fright and said he didnt realise anyone was in...that he just wanted to get the wifi code.! and that his Dad owns the house. My husband let him take a photo of the code on the back of front door. The boy then said sorry and left. It was only after he had left that I came from the bathroom with a towel on me. I dont need to let you know how wrong this whole thing was.!.. I Went out to see if I could see him or the Dad but could not find them. So had he taken a key without the dad knowing or did the dad think it was ok for him to just let himself in to peoples rental properties. Anything of ours could have gone missing and the cleaners would have been blamed on it. I would like an explanation, and an apology from the owner of the house, as this was not the staff in the Old Village's fault. The lady at reception in Live'n Holidays was highly apologetic and gave us another house to shower in while we had checked out ahead of our flight. I await your response. Yours, Caroline

The location is not as handy for walkers , fine for people with a car,, Managers are helpful and very informative, grounds are impressive, pools are not heated , a lot of people partying at this location,,,, if you like dining out and drinking by your room this is the spot,,golfing is handy,,, but expensive,,

Nice place for a short break. A couple of ok places to grab a bite within 5 minutes walk but numerous good places within 15 min walk. Close to port and beach.
