Lovely resort with amazing staff! All so warm and friendly. The facilities are fantastic also! We stayed in a 3 bed villa which was beautiful and clean, the cleaning in particular was a high standard, cleaners were in everyday and the villa was always spotless. We were well looked after by the staff and due to this reason we will be back! My only feedback is that the food can be a little repetitive if you are staying for a while. We ordered in or went out some nights to Portimao which was lovely! But would be a good shout if the menu had a little more choice/options at lunch and dinner. Apart from that everything else was fab. Had a wonderful time. Thank you all at Vale de Lapa we will see you soon!

We had an amazing time and stay at Vale de Lapa. From the moment we walked in, the staff (in particular Joel) were brilliant. Gave us a thorough intro to the complex and facilities and surrounding activities, but we were never sold to or felt overly pressured to buy anything. All the staff were more than helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. For a place slightly out of Carvoeiro, it is a great place to unwind and relax. On site restaurant was great for us, we ate there a couple of times and had breakfast there every day. Lovely selection of fresh fruit and pastries and variety of cooked food. It has easy links to other towns and so for us this was perfect. My only comment would be that the 9 hole crazy golf is an area of Astro, probably best to remove that from the site as an added extra. It also did have a little play area for our little one which was great at keeping him busy from time to time.

The villa was amazing. Not often a resort is exactly as shown in the photos but this was. The accommodation was spacious, spotless and had everything in it we needed for our stay, probably better equipped that my own home. Had a large balcony as well as a patio which was lovely. The resort on the whole was quiet, safe and had great amenities - free bike hire was a bonus! We were self catering but did try the restaurant/bar and the food was great.

We spent ten nights at Vale Da Lapa and loved it. The staff are friendly and accommodating, the villas are very big and well equipped, not to mention absolutely spotless and cleaned daily for those staying 7 nights or more. The onsite restaurant has a decent menu to suit most tastes and we found it very useful when we couldn’t be bothered to venture out for dinner. The pool area was spotless and my kids loved going from pool to pool. The onsite playground is also a nice touch and ideal for my 7 and 5 year old. It’s a shame the kids club won’t take kids under 6 otherwise my two probably would’ve gone. The gym is small but does the trick if you want to do some cardio. We rented a car and went to a nearby Aldi to get some groceries which was handy. We found Carveiro Beach too cramped for day time sunbathing and you couldn’t buy beds or umbrellas but it was buzzy and fun at night, we bought pool toys and got my daughter’s hair braided there. We also visited Ferragudo for a couple of dinners and Portimão which was nice for an evening stroll or if you fancy an ice cream. Overall we loved VLD, and have decided we’d love to return next year!

Ok this property was probably the best one I have been in the last 10 years. The bad first The swimming pool is made all in some kind of cement/stone who hurts a lot when you go in or out. It's an issue because my kids were complaining about it and beside the mini pool for baby (which is made with the same material) they were out of depth unless on the stairs and the stairs cause them lot of scratches. The food is very good but the menu is not that big so after few days you are bored with the food which is however very good. Definitely top stuff, not your usual all inclusive buffet. That's it everything else was amazing 5 stars, the staff (all of them) were all kind patient, I never seen any of them doing a remark a sigh or anything but smile and helpful attitude. The villas are somptuous, very big for a holiday villa. Air Con, Flat TV in every room, super absolutely clean, brand new kitchen, all rooms have ensuite bathrooms. I mean it's just a super super holidays for a family!
