Gorgeous 5 days ,i was recuperating from a hip replacement 5 weeks before, i had my hip destroyed by Covid and my surgery had already been cancelled twice that summer because i got Covid in June ,3 days before my original operation. In summary we were desperate for a short flight,my husband wanted to join a tennis camp. Everyone, Everyone was so love,in particular our driver Jose,a complete gentleman. It was incredibly relaxing even though it tortured me not being able to swim. 2 comments,Well is crazy overpriced food and not brilliant, a caeser salad for 20l8 euro,crazy. Smash was beautiful, elegant staff and well priced delicious food,Montys staff also lovely. We were really impressed guys . The major thing, i was on 2 crutches as a young man after major surgery and the access to the Well was terrible but the worst was the awful smelly dark toilet in Well. No changing rooms,ot always smelled it was dark and Well pool and bar etc is really expensive. You guys need to sort thst out. We met loads of people with plenty of money who chose Smash instead! Staff in smash elegant and food half the price and lovely toilets

Hotel is very quiet. A little far from all the action but perfect if you want a quiet, peaceful hotel away from all the people and noise. It was clean and beautiful and the staff was extremely helpful. Will be back for sure as it was an amazingly relaxing vacation.

Property at this resort is very large definitely need a car or Bicycle, lots of walking, This townhouse is far walk to beach (we drove) it had 3 floors 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms on 3rd floor and first floor had pullout full couch and 1/2 bath sleeps 6 comfortably lots of space.Modern very clean house, pool was very clean, safe and quiet area, basic stock in the kitchen. Check-in is only after 5 pm
Grocery store is nearby
In order to access the gym, you need to pay €115 per person per week. Never have I had to pay at a resort for gym access….
Can not bring water or snacks to the pool area! You have to purchase them there no exceptions. You have to pay for beach chairs and umbrella at beach, house does not supply. They do have a shuttle service around the property you can call for. If you drive closer to the beach you will have to pay for parking.
In my opinion, you’re really only renting out the property. The resort is separate. Anything you want to do at the property you have to pay for. Pool towels were supplied

Vale do lobo is a great resort. Very high end. The apartment was standard so not the most plush. It was clean and had all facilities required including air conditioning Everything was functional but may benefit from a refurbishment. Neighbours were quite noisy but we were only staying for a short period. Reception did apologise but couldn’t do anything as we had not reported to them so were unaware. Service and resort facilities are excellent.

A beautifully furnished and spacious apartment. Very well equipped. Comfortable beds and all equipment needed for a pleasant stay. Disappointed that we had to pay 9 euros each to use the pool. Otherwise very happy with the accommodation and resort. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful part of the world. Friendly and welcoming staff. Everyone I spoke to from the staff, reception, restaurant staff, shuttle drivers and many more were incredibly friendly and warm. The Wellness area is a very nice. A perfect balance to the constant sun, sea and crowds. Thank you for a great visit!

Quality resort with lots of restaurant choice and the staff are friendly and provide great service

Property was lovely and in a good location , however the villa next door was being refurbished and they were using a disk cutter throughout the first three days. The hotel did give us access to the wellness centre and gym ( saunas and steam rooms were out of use) as a guesture. I think when I booked I should have been advised. The spa and gym gesture was nice and as the villa was privally owned they have little control over this but even so it affected our stay.

The resort was great. Our room was really spacious with a full kitchen. There were a lot of food options and the beach was lovely. There is also complimentary shuttle that transports around the resort property if you don't feel like walking. Highly recommend staying here.

The property was well appointed and spacious with good decor and furnishings. The property was generally clean, however, the outside terraces were dusty and hadn’t been swept or washed. There was a general lack of attention to detail, eg., a dangerous plank of wood sticking up on one of the terraces and two enormous dead plants both inside and outside the property. There was building work to the right and left of the property which was noisy.

Our Villa was bit dated but ok for price and had everything
1.0
The resort was way too big for my taste - it could have been anywhere in the world. Not very Portugal-like
The service wasn’t great. Shuttle took 30-40 minute to get between places.
But the worse was coming home the second night to hundreds of ants in the bedroom and on the bed. Called reception and all they gave me was a can of bug spray to handle myself. I couldn’t even sleep in the room after spraying - the fumes were terrible and ants were still crawling. I slept on the uncomfortable plastic leather couch.
In the morning, the receptionist and manager said they couldn’t compensate me and laughed it off. I was furious.
If you come to Faro, stay in the city. Don’t waste your time or money on Vale de Lobo.

A great place for golf/beach vacation!

Nice rental well appointed.. however there is a lot of construction going on which spoils the view and can be a nuisance. The resort tried to compensate us with a late check-out and access to the spa. Several amenities were not in working order (hammam and sauna). Nice try but we will leave very disappointed…. Bottom line: guests’ stay vary vastly depending on the location of the rental…something to think about when booking a stay at Vale do Lobo.

Our unit was moldy, patched up from water damage, the shower leaked all over the floor, there was no housekeeping so there was a charge (12 euros) for fresh towels. To be fair we were not charged for the fresh towels after I told reception that I had used our towels to mop up the floor after the shower leaks. To top it off- there is charge to use the in-room safe. The resort shuttle (apparently only 1 small van) cannot handle the guest traffic after dinner so wait times were unacceptably long. It's a beautiful resort but needs some service and architectural upgrading. Many rental units are privately owned and offer short term rentals (like ours) so you get what seems leftover. However- the front desk staff were quite accommodating and friendly and informative in addressing our issues even though corporate polices tied their hands on being able to address some of the issues we encountered.
5.0
One of the best value for money stays that we have had recently. The studio was of great size, we had all of the british tv channels, the resort has great view points for both sunrise and sunsets and has a lot paths for walking

Worth a visit for sure.

The staff acted like we were doing them a favour by letting us stay there.
Our villa shower was leaking and there was extensive wall damage, so it had been happening a while. Leak was all the way into the kitchen so if gone unnoticed anyone could have slipped and fell.
Pool tiles were falling off into the pool and we were stepping on them
Had to take a shuttle anywhere we wanted to go (beach, etc)
Noisy neighbour with dogs barking all the time and TV blaring outside
Don't recommend.
6.0
Although this was a beautiful property it is currently next to a large construction project so lots of hammering and saws throughout the day. The resort is gigantic, there's only one shuttle van, we waited up to 15 minutes a number of times to get yo various locations. The pool service is the worst on the planet, six male servers wandering about lost. The restaurant prices are very very expensive, the FG ood mediocre however the people are nice. The resort staff were always friendly and helpful. This place is really designed for golfers, spend most of the time on the fairway and minimal time at the room. If you do decide to book here bring lots of cash and good earplugs.

Dining at restaurants along the beach and to the east and west of VDL was excellent. Highly recommend were Bold Octopus, Passeo2, Bovino, Brooks, and the Cheeky Pub and for fun was BJ’s Beach Club. Live Music everywhere. The Villa was equipped with small but full kitchen, washing machine, iron and hairdryer. Shuttle staff was always on time and most courteous. Ubers were great as well! A yes, we must return!

Completely equipped and really functional. Used as a base for four days golfing and worked very well for that. It was a bit soulless, but it was in great condition and it would have been great even for cooking in, which I didn't do. No instructions for the TV and some streaming kit, but otherwise good. The power did trip while I was there, but the VdL staff fixed in within hours.
