We had a wonderful holiday at the Jardim do Vau, right on the beach, half way between Portimao and Alvor, in early April. The apartment was clean, well equipped and with comfortable furniture. The indoor pool is a great bonus in the off-peak season. We used the free shuttle from the hotel several mornings. We went into Portimao a couple... More

Jardim do Vau lovely apartments set on a cliff top with easy access to sandy secluded beaches. The apartments are well run and well maintained, the cleaning staff and reception are efficient, polite and helpful. Reception kindly handles your motorway tolls, you can pay in advance for the return to Faro airport and therefore avoid looking for a post office... More

This was the 11th year we enjoyed our 6 week winter vacation at this establishment. Our stay has always been so wonderful that it is not possible to mention all. The location, the indoor swimming pool, which my husband enjoyes daily, swimming and good conversation with other guests and of course the beach, to search for the eyes of God.... More

After spending January in Spain we were looking for a place to spend February and this ticked the boxes for us. A spacious apartment with a south facing sheltered balcony, a stunning sea view, and warmth at night. A large heated indoor pool. A long pleasant walk in each direction along the coast. Several good supermarkets close by. You do... More

Its hard to know where to start. In summary, this place is brilliant. We have been coming here for many years, since the children were toddlers; now, as teenagers and beyond, they are quite happy to return. Returning to a known place means no surprises, of course, ideal with a young family, but mainly it is the sheer quality of... More

Everything about this hotel and the area surrounding it is totally stuck in the 90'.... Pool...They make you... More

My wife and I came here for our first leg of our honeymoon. The staff was friendly, spoke English, German and of course Portuguese. They had wi-fi, but only in the lobby and we're able to pick it up from our room. The restaurant on the premises was good and affordable along with the pool bar. It's a short walk... More

This hotel is the best we have stayed in on the Algarve: it is right on the beach - a beautiful one that can be walked all the way to Praia da Rocha at low tide. It is convenient for visiting Portimao, Alvor, Lagos etc. The facilities are good - a service wash (laundry) availabe for 5euros. I bedroom apt... More
