Lovely family stay.
Lovely spacious property, perfect for our family holiday. We really appreciated the large bedrooms, all ensuite, and the good sized pool. When we did have an issue the owner and property managers were easy to contact and quick to respond. The villa was clean with lots of extras not included in the listing description; there was very good wifi, Netflix access, board games and books. There is some cosmetic damage in the pool area which needs looking at, but nothing that affected our enjoyment of the property. You definitely need a car to fully enjoy the location, we loved trips into town on market day, a full day at aqualand a visit to the beautiful beach at Praia da Falesia. We enjoyed a wonderful week.Thanks Jo!

Great room space, excellent air con, good service when there were issues.beautiful pool area with lots of seating. Let down by the green pool all holiday and kids not keen to swim in it but when called property managers were straight out to treat it. So nice to arrive at a villa with washing liquid etc all provided for to start you off. Great location, managed to walk to a local cafe for a traditional meal too.

Great villa
Great villa had some teething issues but management team sorted straight away. You absolutely need a car the villa is very far out. The one big negative about this villa is the dogs next dog. They barked through the night and all day….not a lot of sleep was had. The villa was very spacious and roomy had everything we needed. Could do with bathroom locks

We had a lovely stay at Villa Luzia and would 100% recommend. A car is needed as it is quite out of the way and I think the Villa would benefit from a more in depth handbook but we have no complaints and would love to visit again in the future!

Total chill out
Just got back from Villa Louzia and want to go straight back. As a family we needed to get away from it all and that’s exactly what we got. Complete privacy in a safe and tranquil environment. The views are spectacular and the Villa is very clean and managed by a very caring host. Loule itself is a peaceful town with a very relaxed vibe. There are ample supermarkets, however we found them more expensive than UK. But then we discovered the town market that sells pretty much everything you’ll need at a lot less cost than the stores. The beaches and marina are only 15 mins by car. I can’t rate the villa highly enough. If you’re thinking of going, just book it, We’re definitely going back next year

Good villa could be excellent
We went for a week 4 generations, aged 4 to 80, nine of us. Lovely spacious family villa. Good size pool. A/C, WiFi, washing machine/dryer, hair dryers, hand soap and soap in every bathroom. However, a 2 slot toaster for a 10 bed, dials worn off on oven and no instructions to give us a clue, hob, one gas ring works at a time. Coffee machine, an hour to drip through. Barely a matching glass (I bought 12) One ripped large umbrella for outdoor dining, need more umbrellas for pool area, 2 broken outdoor chairs, 1 broken sun lounger. No washing line. One tea towel for a week, 1 tray for clearing table. For safety, for children, a gate to pool area would be helpful. We had a couple of problems that were dealt with efficiently, whilst there, by the management company. The hill down to local cafe (which was excellent) is not for the faint hearted. We had a fabulous time and feel these problems could be easily rectified.

Fantastic Villa
Went to the villafor a week starting 5th August, on arrival found the villa had not been cleaned. Contacted the owner who was very apologetic and stated they would fix the issue. Around 30 minutes later a team of cleaners arrived and blitzed the villa, leaving it emaculate. A very minor issue in the end which left us confident that any other issues would have been sorted (there were none). The villa is up a very very steep drive but it's worth the effort, going with my a family group with 6 adults an 11 year old and a toddler we found the villa the perfect size. The pool area was excellent with a huge table and parasol that made dining outside a real pleasure. The villa is well equipped with everything we needed from towels to kitchen equipment. The electric gates make you feel safe and allow you to let kids run around the grounds. There is a great bar/cafe at the bottom of the drive that serves great fish and BBQ dishes and is very good value for money. Due to the heat (mid 30's) we found that Loule itself was too far away to walk however in mid 20's it would not be too much of a chore. Took day trips to Vilamoura, Albufiera and Fonte Benemola along with visits to Loule all within 30 minutes drive. There is also a wide selection of supermarkets within easy reach. Would definetly recommend the villa to family's or groups and hopefully will return again once we have ticked some other locations off our list!!

Lovely relaxing villa with beautiful views
Villa was really nice and although it took a little time to get used to not having wifi, I think it was a positive thing and enabled me to switch off. Although the pool isn't heated the beautiful weather of Portugal means this is not a problem. All the provided facilities were good, for the beginning of the week the sun beds were all broken but they were replaced by the end of the week. We did hire a car but it is an easy walk into Loule as long as you don't mind the walk back up the steep hill just before the villa. Owner is very accommodating, I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone.

A lovely comfortable villa set in a beautiful garden with great views.
We much enjoyed our stay at Villa Luzia . All the bedrooms have comfortable beds and good bath/ shower rooms . The living room is spacious and well furnished and the pool is lovely . As a family that enjoys cooking we found the old cooker a bit challenging to use as the dial settings have partly worn off ! Apart from that the kitchen is well equipped. We missed wifi to start with but soon got used to popping down to Loule for a coffee when we wanted to connect . A very happy holiday in a wonderful place. Recommended!

Super magnifique les indications sont parfaite pour trouver la villa. La procédure pour récupérer les clés sont top et facile. On reçois un mail avec beaucoup de détails pour accéder facilement. Dès notre arrivé devant la villa nous avons été complètement éblouis chacun a choisis sa chambre qui sont toutes très bien très belle avec sa salle de bain privative. Les matelas sont super confortable les oreillers top on dormais très bien. La Clim est très indispensable heureusement qu’elle est là en temps très chaud. Dans la chambre d’en bas près de la cuisine il manque une commode de rangement. Le salon est super grand il est top. La cuisine est bien par contre il manque beaucoup d’ustensiles pour une maison familiale.Il faudrais renouveler les casseroles,les poêles, mettre des petites tasse à café ☕️ car les mugs ne passe pas. Mettre également des chiffons et renouveler le presse agrumes. La piscine super on c’est bien amusé on a bien rigolés c’était top. On passais la plupart de notre temps au bords de la piscine. Il y a assez de transat pour tous. Sa serait top si sur le petit terrain en bas il y avais des jeux pour les enfants balançoire toboggan ou un petit terrain de pétanque pour les adultes juste en suggestion. Sinon nous avons passez des supers vacances et l’endroit est idéal. Nous avons rencontrer également le Mr de l’entretien qui est très gentil. Nous reviendrons c’est sure. Nous gardons votre maison dans nos favoris pour des futurs vacances. Merci.

Très bon séjour en famille dans cette maison très spacieuse. Nous étions 7 adultes et deux enfants de 13 et an et demi. Chacun avait sa chambre avec salle de bain et de l’espace. La climatisation dans chaque chambre est un plus. La piscine est superbe et la vue tout aussi agréable. Cependant, peu adaptée pour les enfants en bas âge avec les différences de vie au la maison étant en hauteur. Maison bien équipée mais la vaisselle est un peu dépassée et manque de quelques ustensiles, ainsi qu’un réfrigérateur qui refroidit peu. Hormis cela la maison est top.

Boa estadia mas com muitos aspetos a melhorar
Bela estadia! No entanto com muitos aspetos a melhorar. A casa em si é boa, áreas grandes, tudo limpo, boa localização, a poucos minutos da cidade, mas numa área envolvente de natureza, piscina grande, tal como nas fotos. No entanto, a piscina não é aquecida, a temperatura esteve sempre fresca e nunca aqueceu, até mesmo à noite. O azulejo da piscina está a saltar, e no fundo da piscina tem uma falha bastante grande, que não deveria acontecer. Para quem gosta de estar no espaço exterior constantemente, como o nosso caso, à noite a casa tem pouca luz na área da mesa/piscina. O grelhador é pequeno para uma casa que leva tantas pessoas. Em relação à cozinha, máquina de café não funciona bem e os acessórios de cozinha como frigideiras, etc precisam mesmo de ser renovados. No geral, a casa prima pelo espaço que tem, mas realmente há situações que deveria melhoradas. Obrigada
