Vilamoura / Vilamoura Marina area
Centred on a massive marina, Vilamoura is the largest, purpose-built holiday resort in the Algarve. And it’s got all your holiday needs covered - from sailing and bowling to shopping and having a flutter in the casino, your wish is Vilamoura’s command. There’s superb golf, with no less than five 18 hole championship courses. At least 50 tennis courts. And a whole host of other ways to entertain yourself. Squash? Cycling? Horse riding? The choices are endless. Of course with the huge marina at hand, the big focus is on sailing and boating. Not to mention all the usual watersport - such as waterskiing, speed boating, and dinghy sailing. If all these activities sound far too exhausting, there’s scope for more traditional holiday pleasures too. Two vast, sandy beaches stretch out from the marina, so you’ll have no trouble finding a sunbathing spot. Shopping is a pleasure here, with fashionable boutiques around the marina and lots of souvenir shops around every corner. As you would expect in such a large resort, there’s an abundance of restaurants to choose from. Ranging from international cuisine to more traditional Portuguese menus, you’re truly spoilt for choice. If you have any energy left at the end of the day, make the most of the nightlife. Bars, clubs and late night cafés flicker into life around the harbour and all over town – so picking a favourite nightspot will be as easy as finding a sunny spot on the beach. This is the life

Guestbook for Praia Village
We had a lovely time thanks, just let down by the weather. The apartment is absolutely gorgeous and I could not fault it in any way. It was imaculate inside and had everything you could need. Sandra who met us at the apartment was very helpful . Thanks again, I will be sure to recommend to friends and family.
Kind regards Gill
Great Apartment in superb location! Will return next year. Alex
We had a great time in Portugal, very relaxing, the apartment is really lovely a real home from home. Eileen always says why go on holiday to less than you have at home, you save all year for your holiday and you should have comfort. Colleagues of mine go on holiday to Portugal a few times a year and said they would be interested to hear how our holiday was, I will have no worries about recommending your apartment to them.
Many Thanks
John, Eileen & Lucy Speer.
The apartment is fantastic, has everything you could need for a self catering holiday, a fully functioning kitchen with all mod cons is definitely a plus(not that we used them). The gardens and pool area are very clean and tidy. The complex is a nice friendly and secure place to stay and I would not have any hesitation in recommending the apartment to anyone.
Thanks very much.
Dawn
The apartments were of an excellent standard and at first we were very apprenhensive to use anything! we have never been in such clean and well fitted apartments and would recommend them to anyone the area is lovely and peaceful and the pool was hardly full therefore allowing myself and the son in law to battle out various games to be vilamoura champion! We had superb chilled out holiday with great weather and sandra was always available for any queries we had - thanks for everything I Parker (Notts)
The apartment was excellent and we had a great time. It would be have been good to have a little more info on the resort ie restaurant recommendations and a more detailed local map but really I cannot fault the accommodation, it was clean, uncluttered and very comfortable.We were very grateful for the tv on the day that it rained heavily! The sun came out and we spent the rest of the time on the golf course and on a visit to the old town of Faro which I highly recommend.
Many thanks,
Clare
Hi Craig, Just got back from Vilamoura, we have all had a superb holiday! Vilamoura is lovely, the marina is good to wander around and of course there are plenty of places to eat! Falesia beach goes on for miles and we have spent a few days in the sun and the boys had fun in the sea, we tried walking to Albufeira but didn't make it. The apartment was fantastic, thank you for letting us hire it, the whole complex was just perfect, the boys braved the pool as did a few other children. Thank you again, we hope to hire it again sometime.
Paula and Ian Spender
Hi Craig,
I am now back to work after my wonderful holiday in Portugal! Just a quick note to say “thank you” for a seamless holiday – everything was perfect from being met at the airport and then being met again at the apartment. The apartment itself was beautiful – like home from home – walking distance from beach and marina was fine not too far !!! This matched with weather of 38 degrees on one day made a perfect holiday. Out of 8 times in Vilamoura at many of the marina hotels this was our best holiday….. Will definitely be booking again next year!

Hi Craig, we had a fab holiday. Your apartment was great. It was so big and so well equipped. it was also very central and I really appreciate all the arrangements you put in place for the transfers to and from the airport. They were so efficient. Helen was also so nice and helpful. Please pass on my thanks to her and to her company and in particular to the wonderful cleaning service provided. I could not fault one thing. We felt so secure and the complex was so private. It was a pleasure to sit out in the lovely balcony in the evenings or when the sun got too hot. I am glad I picked a first floor apartment as the balcony was so private. The pool view was great and it made all the difference when you were sitting out on the balcony. I would go back there tomorrow morning no problem. I have no difficulty you posting all the above comments where you advertise the apartment, as it might be helpful to other people. However, I would prefer if you would not use my email address on the website. Thanks. . Thanks for all the advice and for the opportunity to use your lovely home. I wish you the best of luck and would recommend it to anyone.
The folder in the apartment was so helpful. If you would like any tips from a traveller, when you go there again, you could do up another folder with some leaflets for some of the tours. For example, The 4.5 hour catamaran boat trip is ideal for a family as it is not too long, the tour to fatima was worthwhile even though it was long, it was worth going there, the day of the markets and the next town of albuferia which was great for shopping. we got a taxi there.
We found that the taxis services were cheaper than the tours, particularly for short distances. For example, it would have cost us 40 euros to go by coach to the quateria market and for a total of l0 euros return, we got a taxi. we just asked the agency across the road to ring the taxi and got a price first. 50c they only charge for booking the taxi but did not charge anything for checking the price.
I hope this mail will be useful to you. I know you wont have any difficulty letting your apartment. Enjoy your next golfing trip. Let me know if you buy any further apartments abroad.
kindest regards deirdre
Hi Craig Absolutely loved Vilamoura, the weather couldn't have been better and your apartment is absolutely fantastic. Silver holidays (Helen) were brilliant and the welcome pack was a very nice touch. The food at Chez Carlos accross the road was gorgeous, we ate there most nights. Loved your blinds!!! Woke up one morning, looked at my watch as it was so dark and mistakenly thought is was 4am, it was actually 10am!!! (watch upside down!). The kids have never slept so late, we need them at home! It was also nice to know you had your own sun loungers available whenever you wanted.
Don't be surprised if we come back again next year.
thanks for shredding the cheque and feel free to post the comments above as a testamonial if you want,
thanks again,
Adrian Sept 2009
