10/10
The villa was absolutely wonderful. The rooms, and the grounds are gorgeous, and the pool fantastic. It's a quiet area, so you hear bird song as you lounge by the pool, but there's a little shop and a restaurant (which is amazing!) within ten mins walk, and it's half an hour walk to the edge of Lagos where there's a Lidl, and then loads of restaurants and bars and everything you'd expect. The weather in the second half of May was perfect - MUCH hotter than BBC weather indicated (more like 30c than the 19 we thought we might encounter)! The cleaners came only as often as we wanted them to, but I think they'd have come by every day if we'd asked! Someone stopped by a couple of times a week to clean the pool, and tend the garden. I would very strongly recommend you ask the host for the address if the villa, as the directions provided are.. a little challenging, shall we say (he said that GPS isn't very good at finding the location, but Google Maps does a fine job from plotting a route from Faro airport to the villa address, if you have it). While we there, the aircon in the double room didn't work (it blew air, but it wasn't chilled), which was OK for my partner and I as we had the place to ourselves! I'm sure that the host will sort it out, and likely would have done so while we were there if we hadn't said that we were fine using the twin room (where the aircon was delightfully cool)! We took so many photos of the place during our stay, because it was just so beautiful!
