Inspite of the pictures on their website the hotel is a complete disaster. A total lack of interest in their guests. The food, breakfast and dinner, is poor. Airco's wont work, towels are dirty en they clean your room only once a week.The hotel actually looks like it has been a great place, at least ten years ago. Now all... More

Slight delay to the flight meant we pulled up to the fairly impressive front gates at 1am. One problem, all locked up and no answer from the buzzer. After half an hour, some other guests returned and let us in, explaining the same thing had happened to them. The key was waiting for us on the reception desk though. Worth... More

The jewel of this hotel was for us the restaurant: extremely well serviced, quality food, done for us, ... The chef deserves congratulations. With art he mixes shrimps with various dishes. Let the waiter (very nice) to guide you for the wine. A real nice experience ... The hotel is closed (2 km) from a nice beach. Try also, on... More

My husband and I went to Villa Domilu for our honeymoon. Despite telling most members of staff that it was our honeymoon we didn't receive any congratulations/flowers/champagne etc which was a little dissapointing. We booked quite last minute and there was no double rooms available. However through booking.com we got a very large suite decorated in turquoise and brown for... More

We found Vila Domilu to be the ideal retreat in an Algarve bustling with families. It is set in a secluded spot above Carvoeiro with a €6 taxi ride every evening to an array of restaurants and bars. In itself Vila Domilu has two outdoor and one indoor swimming pools that are set in perfect manicured grounds. There are sufficient... More

This was not my first trip to the Algarve, although this one was made memourable because of our Hotel. First impressions are extremely important, and on arrival, one feels that we have arrived at a very intimate boutique hotel. The gardens, bedrooms, cleanliness and the staff were all of an extremely high standard. Our hotel manager Isabel Camões, was extremely... More

I have stayed at Vila Domilu last September with my family. It is a very romantic hotel, with very friendly staff and relaxing music on the grounds. Breakfast was very good (they had a big variety of fresh fruit which we have enjoyed a lot) and the swimming pools and gardens were wonderful. The room was comfortable, with nice decoration... More

Just run away from it. It has a 4 star category but the 2 stars would be more appropriate. It seems an old house transformed in an hotel. The room smeels humidity. The WC is absolutly awfull. Despite all these there were 2 time electricity faill, and no hot water for the bath. Forget it. One of the worst hotels... More
