Great Villa, in a quiet, private location. We had a great holiday here (4 adults and 3 children aged, 8, 11, 11).
Transport is a must as you are not within walking distance of any shops.
The directions from the airport are ok, but I would use google earth/street view prior for a better understanding.
Nena(the dog) is lovely and friendly.
We stopped for 10 days, but we all wished we could have stopped longer. The owner is accommodating (when possible) for early entry/later leaving.
Internet is fast, for the kids social networking/you tube etc.
Villa & pool clean.

A local family owned villa in a wonderfully remote location accessed by a small track. Although we arrived slightly earlier than expected, just one phone call and 10 minutes later we were welcomed by the owners sister and shown around the facilities. Very friendly and polite service and would do anything for you.
The property was situated amongst the hills just outside the small village of Estoi, the four of us were lost in the spacious villa, plenty of bathrooms, pool table, a lovely L-shaped swimming pool, partly lawned garden and beautifully maintained rockery.
You most definitely need a car but Lidls is only a 10 minute drive away and once you have your supplies you can hunker down and enjoy the peacefulness. If you are itching to adventure out more the beach is 25 min drive away, there are the local Milreu Ruins and plenty to see in the nearby towns.
If you want to escape the hustle and bustle this is the place to go. The only negative (depending on if you are animal lover) is there seems to be a lot of dogs about, if you cant see them then you can hear them occasionaly talking to each other. Having a dog myself, I can live with that!

10 days spent within valley view, good location, clean and staff very friendly.
One major issue oven packed up on our third day there was nothing they could do to assist us as it was a computer issue on oven so had to use the flat downstairs.
Very quiet location pool was lush would go back again next year hopefully

We thought that this was a lovely villa. Absolutely huge with only 3 of us staying there, very modern, well-equipped and spotlessly clean. Owner was easy to deal with via email. Although villa is only 10 or so miles from airport, no aircraft noise at all - all you can hear are the birds! It is a little hard to find even with good directions - recommend you put the co-ordinates into satnav N 37.11573 , W 007.85827. Look for the big brown/red iron gates automatic gates. The drive up to the villa could be a little scary in the dark as it is a country track. The villa is incredible value out of high season and I would certainly recommend it providing that you like tranquility - there really are no amenities within walking distance, although the Lidl is around 10 minutes drive away and has everything you need and the coast is 25 minutes. We liked to drive down to Vilamoura for lunch although other beaches/resorts are available. With the villa being so well-equipped we spent most time by the pool and barbeque though.
