The location is ideal for kids, easy to walk a few steps to the beach, the playground, the indoor heated pool and the outdoor pool, free parking, restaurants and cafes nearby and a short car trip to the nearest supermarkets. I would highly recommend for families. The apartment was bright, really spacious and very very clean.

The apartment was a little noisy with some neighbours but understandable as the apartments are big, open plan and tiled, so sound travels. I imagine it is quite a bustling place during the high season in the summer, but the noise didn't bother us too much as we were on holiday.

The people at the desk were very obliging and helpful. The rooms and balcony were fine. It was easy to access the beach area and local restaurants.

We didn't use the dining room because it was mostly fixed price buffet and the occasions when we dropped down the staff didn't know when menu ordering would be available. Strange. We would have like to have had an option to eat there. The ladies at the store were only transactional and didn't really engage with people coming into the store (no welcome.) It was helpful to have it there but we think opportunities were lost by not engaging with those coming into the store, i.e. "can I be of help to you? "

Clean, spacious rooms, with big balconies. Nice pool area with bathrooms- although people reserve their chairs early in the morning and don’t show up until hours later (signs that this is not allowed but it’s not enforced), shop has everything you need - food/snacks/toiletries. Later check out easily accommodated. 2 chairs and an umbrella available for rent at the beach for 20 euros but plenty of place if you want to stretch out on the beach a short few mins walk over.

No dish soap/sponge, dishwasher or washer soaps provided- ironing board but no iron- I didn’t bother asking.

We only spent a night at Jardim do Vau but it was excellent! We had a warm welcome from Elsa ( on reception) when we arrived. We were slightly earlier than the check in time but Elsa still booked us in as the rooms were ready. The next day we were allowed to stay and use the facilities after check out whilst waiting for our villa to be ready. Highly recommended 👌

Slightly noisy neighbours but no real issue.

The location was terrific! A 3 minute walk takes you to an outstanding path along beautiful cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean Sea!

The facilities in the kitchen could have been better. There wasn't a cloth provided for washing dishes and/or counter tops. Also a small amount of dish detergent and dishwasher soap would have been helpful for a 3 night stay.

clean, great location, comfortable

as it was self catering and we arrived late there could have been a small welcome pack so that we could have a drink or tea or coffee, water when we arrived

Excellent guy on reception, spoke all sorts of languages (well done sir). Clean, tidy, just the right stuff to cook simple no fuss meals. Toilet and shower clean, no mould or lingering smells. Beds were firm, clean and bedding changed every couple of days. Living area sparse but what are you doing in the room on an evening? There is a tv with all manner of channels incl Portugese obes which are mostly in English (explains why all the locals speak it so well - thank you). We will be back.

We could not figure out the aircon at all, balcony closed and locked should have allowed it to come on, instructions and control not great, however that was the only minor irritation. We will be back.

Loved our stay here. Staff were excellent and the hotel was exceptionally clean. Location was amazing, with a selection of close vu restaurants.

Absolutely nothing. I have nothing negative to say at all...

Good family rooms, beaches nearby, indoor pool, sufficient parking, playground. Very handy place for families. This was our second visit here. Staff is friendly and helpful.

We were initially allocated to a different room than what we had requested, but this was rectified next morning.

The room was nice and clean. It had the right size for a family with a kid. Facilitates were also good enough and complete for such a short stay. The access was easy and plenty of free parking places.

The WiFi was almost disconnected. Supper slow connection and often disconnected.
