I've been coming here with my Auntie and Uncle for the last 10 years.
Some say why go to the same place? Well it's because It's like my second home. It's so peaceful and relaxing. I catch up on the rest / sleep that I don't get for the other 51 weeks of the year! We arrive and within an hour we are sitting in the garden ready to enjoy after shopping for food and unpacking.
A few have noted the decor is dated, while I agree somewhat, it's actually traditional Portuguese so to have ultra modern would just make it like the UK.
Others have noted the planes flying over... but with a less than 15 min drive from the airport I'm not sure what can be expected. I think it's good to see others having to leave when your still in the sun 😬.
The location is great though very quiet! Plenty of places to walk, amazing views and a fabulous beach a short distance.
The Resturant at the club house this year has been exceptional. We haven't eaten there (apart from the snack menu) in years. It's really upped it's game, the desserts are amazing and now comparable with As Velas in the sister four seasons fairways.
We also love villamoura, great place to have a meal and a wander around the marina. It's not too far away, also the ice cream is exceptional.
My uncle is a keen golfer and plays many of the courses during our stays.
I'm hoping that I will be returning for the next 10 years!!
