We came to Vila Vita last September and had an amazing time. Came back for 2 weeks this year and it was even better. We had one of the newly refurbished, 2 bedroom, seaview Oasis Suites - it was so lovely. Perfect for us and our two year old. They've put in a lovely new pool, kids pool and pool bar. Cannot wait to go back!!
