Recently spent a week at this Golf & Leisure resort as a party of 5 adults one child staying in the Casa Sophie villa. The resort itself is in south western Algarve a 1hr 10min drive, along the A22, from Faro airport. The drive is dead easy but, be aware, the A22 is a toll road, though not expensive. The... More

We are in a 3 bed villa with private heated pool on phase 3 of this resort. Granted there are a couple of unfinished villas but there is no active building work and if you look at a satellite image on google maps you can check that you are not overlooking one. Our villa was beautiful Inside and out, very... More

When in the golf club, pictures adorning the walls show what a history this place has & what a great resort it once was. Whilst the staff are lovely, it is VERY dated & the food is basically pub grub & not very good at that. For what you get, it is expensive. The grounds and villas are beautiful though.

Really looking very tired indeed, much better options closer to Lagos, this place needs a lot of money spending on it to bring it up to scratch.Very disappointed. Golf course was equally disappointing, fairways and greens in poor condition and whole place felt like it needs a facelift

We arrived at the resort (about an hour and 15mins from Faro airport) late at night, and the receptionist was welcoming and informative. I was shocked when he said our villa (James Villas, 97) was another 2 mile drive away, I didn't realise how big the complex was! Our villa was absolutely huge and of a very high standard. The...

Parque da Floresta is in such a beautiful location,our Villa was of a very high standard. You are so close to so many beautiful beaches and villages. The Parque itself did not offer much entertainment except for the bowling club, here you had quizes live music and childrens games. The staff were very friendly and the breakfasts and lunches were...

Played Parque da Floresta in July and found it to be in serious need of watering on fairways. We had to keep buggies on the concrete paths which meant that with the endless sloping fairways the balls kept on rolling and we were hiking around all over the place. Difficult to see white balls on parched light brown fairways and... More

We stayed in one of the villas in phase II with a (distant) sea view, booked via James Villas, and as such loved every moment of it. The resort is huge, in my view getting very built-up in some areas, so make sure you check which villa/townhouse you rent to avoid disappointment, but all immaculately maintained. As this is a...

We are on our last day of our stay at 23 parque da floresta. We managed to get our 3 bed villa at a great last minute deal with James villas. Booking was smooth and as we were taking out 7 month old son, we requested a travel cot and high chair. The villa was spotless when we got here,... More
