Enjoyed the silence, boys had fun feeding the chickens. The only downside. Wifi wasnt the strongest could still stream Netflix no other online gaming possible.

A lovely secluded spacious villa, clean with a large pool, huge bbq area, UK satellite TV and wireless internet access. Our family including three girls aged 7-13 a fabulous time and we would throughly recommend it to friends and family.

Villa Kimbo is a lovely, clean and secluded villa in the Praia de Luz area. It is situated in an ideal location for shops, bars and the waterfront. Our holiday was relaxing, the villa catered for everything we needed and the owners Teresa and Jose were very warm, friendly and approachable. We would certainly recommend the villa as a place to stay for anyone visiting the area.

Firstly we would like to say how wonderful our holiday was staying at Teresa and Josie Villa Kimbo. The first thing we were greeted with when we got into our villa was a lovely welcome pack consisting of various food items meaning we had enough to get by until we went to the shops. The owners couldn't have been more accommodating and our 3 year old son loved feeding the ducklings and chickens they had on site and think we fed them more than ourselves in the end. Everything was spotless and we will be going again in the future as we felt completely safe and secure in a villa that exceeded our expectations. Another note just been reminded of is that we picked oranges daily which was all completely fine with the owners as well.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Kimbo, one of a pair of beautiful Villas, in idyllic, secure surroundings, set back from the coast and 2km / 7km from Luz / Lagos respectively. Although the location seems remote and the directions a little daunting, it is quite straightforward to find and very rewarding when you open the gates on a little oasis of fruit trees, manicured lawns and lush greenery. The Villa was very spacious and well appointed, both inside and out, with the added benefit of wireless broadband - which will please anyone wishing to stay connected to the outside world, without being crippled by data roaming charges. I would imagine that with the full complement of eight people, some may be disappointed with the size and storage available in the rather compact kitchen, but if you're BBQ'ing or eating out every night, that probably won't be an issue? The bedrooms and living / dining areas were a good size, clean and comfortable. One thing we did notice about the bathrooms was that every single one was a bath with a shower handset. Only two of the four had a bracket on the wall in which to insert the handset! So, if you're a family that likes to shower, you may end up sharing a 'shower room', as we did. Outside, there is bags of space, a 'mahoosive' pool, plenty of sun beds and shady verandahs, if the heat get too much (or to protect little ones). The BBQ area has a huge refectory table, right next to where the food is cooked, so 'al-fresco' dining is well catered for. The owners, Jose and Teresa, were very helpful, but not overbearing or intrusive. They introduced themselves when we arrived, told us where they were if we needed them and just popped round to say goodbye as we were leaving. You are guaranteed to get your money's worth, as every day starts at 5am, thanks to (what sounds like) hundreds of cockerels and peacocks on the farm next door. Light sleepers and those who can't function without a lie-in please take note, a pair of earplugs (or a shotgun) may be a useful holiday accessory to ensure your slumber is not disturbed :-) A great holiday getaway, but only a few minutes from the beaches, supermarkets, restaurants, golf, etc. - should you really feel the need to venture out. However, with all the Villa has to offer, you might just want to do a 'Big Shop' at Intermarche, stock up with everything you need, kick back, relax and stay put!!!

Wir ( meine Grosseltern und ich, 17) war nun zum zweiten mal Gast in der Villa Kimbo. Es war wie beim ersten Mal wundervoll! Die ruhige Lage in der schoenen Landschaft, die super ausgestattete Villa mit dem grossen Pool und der nahe gelegene Strand sowie die nahe gelegene "Grossstadt" Lagos sind einfach toll. Verkehrslaerm ist ueberhaupt nicht vorhanden und die umlegenden Orte sind ueber die Schnellstrasse sehr gut zu erreichen. Die Villa selber war wirklich lupenrein sauber, die Vermieter José und Theresa sind wirklich sehr freundlich und immer zuvorkommend gewesen. Das Haus und der Pool werden regelmaessig kontrolliert sowie die Gaerten durch einen eigenen Gaertner instand gehalten werden. Bei bedarf koennen aus dem "hauseigenen" Garten frische Apfelsinen, Pampelmusen und Zitronen gepflueckt werden. Mit Ungeziefer jeglicher Art hatten wir keinerlei Probleme, weder Muecken noch Ameisen, noch sonstige Tiere. Die Villa ist liebevoll eingerichtet mit afrikanischen Accesoirs und Bildern. Es gibt eine grosse Couch-Sitzecke und eine kleinere, sowie einen grossen und kleinen innerhalb zum Essen und aussen nochmal zwei grosse und einen kleinen Tisch sowie 8 Liegen inkl. Auflagen fuer den Pool. Zwei grosse Sonnenschirme mit Staender sind ebenfalls vorhanden sowie kleinere Spielsachen die man sich fuer den Pool oder den Strand ausleihen kann. Straende gibt es in der naehern und weiteren Umgebung mehrere. Der in Luz gehoert zu den groesseren und ist auf Grund der groesse des Ortes sehr belebt aber nicht ueberfuellt. Ansonsten koennen wir den von Porto de Mos empfehlen welcher ca. 10 min entfernt liegt oder den Strand Ingrina der ca. 30min entfernt ist aber echt sehr schoen ist. Lagos selber hat 3 oder 4 sehr schoene Straende zu bieten sowie viele gute Restaurants mit portugisiescher und internationaler Kueche gleichermassen. Ich koennte jetzt noch viel schreiben aber es bleibt zusagen: Das Haus ist 100%ig weiterzuempfehlen und wir werden bald wiederkommen. Man muss es wirklich selbst erlebt haben, der Urlaub war einer der schoensten die ich je gemacht habe und ich habe doch mit meinen jungen Jahren schon relativ viel von der Mittelmeer Kueste gesehen. Portugal bleibt ganz oben auf meiner Lieblingsurlaub-Liste! Wir wuenschen ihnen einen schoenen Urlaub wie wir ihn hatten, Heinz Gerd, Dorit und Nico.

We had a wonderful week in Villa Kimbo with our two teenage children and my husband's mother. The villa is very well equipped; we wanted for nothing! Having 4 bathrooms was a real bonus too. Everything was spotlessly clean and well maintained. The only downside was that the kitchen was very small for the size of the villa and the beds were a bit hard (minor details). The owners were very helpful and friendly but respected our privacy and were not intrusive. We felt really safe and secure in this remote location as access to the villa is through electric gates. A car is essential to get out and about. Praia de Luz is a few minutes drive away and has lovely beaches and restaurants. Other resorts are also within easy reach. If you are looking for a villa to get away from it all for a week or two, then this is definately the one for you.

Villa Kimbo is situated in rural countryside just out of Espiche, about 10 minutes from Lagos. The Villa Kimbo lies in a small private complex with its own pool, four bedrooms and bathrooms. It provides excellent facilities for all the family, with beaches and lovely walks in close proximity. Although within a short drive of local restaurants the kitchen and bar-b-q facilities make this a real home from home but with the added advantage of your own pool. The property is surrounded by fruit trees, including fig, lemon and avocado that you are free to pick for your own use. Jose and Teresa the property owners are extremely helpful and friendly but not obtrusive. If like us you are bird watchers this is a lovely spot to be, waking up to hoopoes outside your window is a spectacular sight. Also in the surrounding area there are Azure Winged Magpie, Kestrel, Shrike, Wheatear and Warblers. We would be more than happy to return however next time we would love to stay much longer.
