    Perfect location on the beach

    Liked: We have just come back from Jardim Do Vau and we loved it there. We stayed with our 4 year old and 5 month old and they had a great time. Our 4 year old became really confident swimming in the smaller pool without arm bands which was amazing. The reception and pool bar staff are all really friendly and helpful and the location is perfect. We could have a pool morning and beach afternoon and could easily nip back to the room if we needed anything for the kids. There are enough restaurants nearby and we took an Uber into Alvor and Praia de Rocha a few times too. We had a two bedroom apartment and it was so spacious. Top tip, take laundry tablets and dishwasher tablets as we used both throughout the holiday. I did a load of washing before coming home and it’s a game changer! Great stay and we will definitely be back.

    Lovely Peaceful Place

    Liked: Had a lovely week at Jardim do Vau. We had a two bedroom apartment which was very spacious with two fully equipped bathrooms which was great with a family of four. The apartments are very well maintained and spotlessly clean. They also have numerous good quality air conditioning units which makes them very comfortable. The only thing which would have been useful in the apartment would have been a clothes airer to dry clothes on the balcony seeing as the apartments have washing machines. We went for half-board. Even though it was buffet style and the food was lovely it is not to the scale of larger more all inclusive style resorts we have stayed at and the choice is less. Not very many people seem to go for half board and the restaurant was usually pretty quiet so I can see why the restaurant would not provide a huge choice. It's not a criticism, it's just not your typical all inclusive style if that's what you're used to. The pool area is lovely and getting sun loungers is no problem as they are plentiful. The pool bar is also nice with a nice selection of snacks, pizzas and a full bar. There is also a pool table there. The resort overall is pretty quiet with quite a few older couples in their 60s and 70s. If you're looking for a family resort with a buzz and lots of activities then this will probably be a little too quiet for you. There were some families here but there is no entertainment program or anything like that if that's what you're looking for. The beachfront location is great with the beach only steps away from the pool. It's a beautiful beach and when the tide is out you can walk the beach all the way into Praia De Rocha. Every member of staff we met were fantastic and so friendly and obliging, Location is in between Portimao and Alvor with Praia de Rocha a 20 min walk away if you are looking for somewhere with a bit of a buzz. There are a few smaller restaurants just beside the hotel but the area immediately around the hotel is quiet. We didn't have a car and didn't need one. Ubers are plentiful and good value to get anywhere within half an hour (Portimao, Lagos, Alvor, Carvoiero and Slide and Splash). Overall a lovely week and I would return but probably as a couple or with friends and not with kids.

    We had a lovely holiday and would return

    Liked: We love this location and return to it regularly. The apartment was clean and well serviced. Great facilities here.Friendly staff.

    Disliked: So many packed around pool we struggle to find two sun beds together, but usually managed. The restaurant was empty although the property was full. The food looked unappetising so we ate elsewhere.

    Everything we needed and more

    Liked: Friendly staff and everything we needed was close by including restaurants within walking distance and a small store. Very valuable to have beach access from the property. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

    Worthy of a return visit! This place is very clean!

    Liked: We enjoyed our 2 wks in a 1 bedroom suite with ocean view on 2nd floor, the visit was mid April. Weather was 20c, so the pool area was enjoyable. Lots of loungers, clean pool & adjacent bathrooms, pool snack bar nearby for drinks & food, cool pool water temp but invigorating, shade areas & sunny for everyone’s needs & pool bar service. Friendly & helpful staff at front desk, pool snack bar & cleaning staff. Laundry service available for a fee. Restaurant used for desserts, a bit expensive but convenient. We did our own breakfasts & ate out for dinner nearby. Comfortable adequate rooms, maybe sparse with decor & old style. Balcony to partial ocean virw, but we were in Block B near road. Quiet room. Good water pressure & hot water. Sm refrigerator but adequate. No salt/pepper or condiments. Had to get staff to explain cook too directions. Close proximity to restaurants, beach, walking trail on shoreline, boardwalk to Portimao (restaurants, shops & beach) Rental car from Faro airport made it easy to explore area. Always lots of free parking near room. Round abouts galore. Grocery store 5 mins away by car. Alvor is close by to explore town, restaurants & boardwalk. Indoor pool was not used as weather was excellent, but a few people were in it. Library for book borrowing. Didn’t use spa services. Good for people with limited walking ability as resort isn’t too large & elevators available. A lot of return visitors. We would too!! An older resort but location was ideal.
