After a lot of problems with flights we finally got out to this wonderful villa.
There was four adults and my grandchild of 3 years old, the pool area felt very safe I had no worries of my grandchild escaping from the pool area. Have seen in reviews that there was talk that the pool area was in complete sunshine all day, this is correct but not an issue the whole of the veranda is undercover and we sat under this area to get out of the sun every now and then so not an issue for us. Also, I have read pool temperature was low, my understanding is that the owner had a new heater installed, whilst we were there the pool temperature fluctuated between 28 & 30 degrees really great for infants. My grandchild did not get cold and spent every hour in the pool, if my grandchild was happy then I am happy in fact as Portugal weather got hotter the pool was being cooled to maintain 28/30 degrees. Saw the pool cleaner twice during our 11 days stay checked water quality and cleaned the pool.
We had a cleaner Monday to Friday, to be honest my wife had reservations about this however the cleaner was very thorough and very discrete not a problem at all.
I know the area very well however a little concerned that we might be a little far out of Lagos than we wanted, I was wrong I could get to the marina in around 15-20 mins and the lakes and Dam “Barragem da Bruvura in 7 mins. Are car being really a certainty in this area area.
The villa is perfect and very spacious, well equipped, outside BBQ. The owner phoned me on our first day to ensure everything was ok and also I made contact with Pierre a couple of times not for any problems but to re-book for 2023, Pierre was available to answer any questions as well.
If I could offer any advice, as a Brit we love a cup of tea an electric kettle would be great, I may have missed it though Pierre 😊
All in all a little gem, loved our holiday especially the pool, I have been to many villas the pool has been cold children don’t want to play in the pool when it’s cold which then put’s pressure on the adults, well done to the owner on this one.
Will be back, and wish it was tomorrow.
