It is well supplied with restaurants and beach bars, and there are some excellent cliff walks to neighbouring villages. Whilst the number of private villas in Luz has increased over the last few years, they are of a high quality and the facilities of the village have improved because of this. There is a Water sports school and a Scuba Diving Centre. 5 km away is the medieval walled town of Lagos, which sits on a hillside overlooking the harbour, an impressive new marina and a wide bay of golden sand. It's picturesque cobbled streets have a superb selection of markets, modern shops, restaurants and pavement cafes. At night, there are street entertainers, lively bars and discos. For culture, there are many galleries, museums and monuments. The area around Lagos also has several first class Golf courses, such as Palmares, Quinta da Boavista, and Parque da Floresta.

Superb villa and views in a nice quiet area

Paul Jan & family Congleton Cheshire
Review Submitted: May 31, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We had a very relaxing week in this beautiful comfortable spacious villa with superb views. We would reccomend it to anyone visiting Luz and wanting to stay in a secluded area with plenty of space around you. Situated in an up-market area of Luz, with just a few other villas around it. Makes a change from villas that are crammed in together.

Lovely pool, pool area and gardens with a nice barbecue area on the patio.

Plenty of room for a large family, or a couple of families. With their being just two of us we 'rattled around' in the villa!

It was like 'home from home' having evrything you would ever need and more. Tim & Caroline have thought of everything for both adults and children. Bruna the maid came 3 times during our stay and was very helfpul. The welcoming wine was a lovely touch!

Very much looking forward to returning to the villa again in the future.

Paul & Jan - Cheshire - 5th - 12th May 2009
Owner's Response: Thanks Paul and Jan - you would be welcome to return to our villa any time. Our guest book has many other comments similar to these, but it is pleasing when rental clients take the time and trouble to do a review for the Holiday Rentals website, which I am sure is helpful to prospective future renters.

Beautiful Villa in Quiet Location

LC2009 Suffolk
Review Submitted: September 27, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We have just spent a week in this lovely villa and would certainly recommend it to friends. The location is peaceful and although it means an uphill walk back to the villa from the village the peace more than makes up for the walk. We were looking for somewhere quiet and secluded and it fitted the bill perfectly. The villa is well equipped, clean and maintained to a high standard. There were ample sun loungers for the four of us and the pool was perfect.

Lovely Villa, Excellent Location

AndyMB Chesterfield, Derbyshire
Review Submitted: September 11, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Dear Tim and Caroline
Thanks for the use of you lovely villa. We had a fantastic holiday and the villa was a home from home. Very private and quiet with everything we could possibly need and lots of space for two families. The children had a great time in the pool and we all enjoyed BBQs in the evenings. Only a short walk into the peaceful town of Luz, where we enjoyed some lovely meals out. All in all a great family holiday with friends. We would recommend to anybody.
Owner's Response: Great to have another very positive review!
Tim and Caroline.

Casa Por Do Sol

Darlo Darlington
Review Submitted: September 3, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
An excellent property, well located for both south coast and west coast algarve beaches. Indoors the house was clean and spacious with four good size bedrooms two ensuite, and two other bathrooms. A good size lounge and well appointed kitchen. Outside there is a lovely pool which was a great temperature in the summer and an eating and barbque area. There are fantastic views from the [gin and tonic] terrace of the sunset. I would thoroughly recommend this villa, one of the best I have been to.

Lovely villa, great location

Review Submitted: September 1, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a fantastic week at Casa Por do Sol. The villa itself is like home from home - comfortable, clean, spacious and attractively furnished. The pool area is great with a wall providing shelter from the wind and surrounded by a garden that is flourishing ( and looks better than in the photos!).
The location was perfect for our needs. Our 4 teenagers enjoyed walking down to the resort for water-sports, bars and cafes and were happy to pick up groceries from the small supermarket on the way back up the hill. They even caught the local bus in Lagos a couple of times.
Us oldies enjoyed the coastal walks and some of the tiny bays that were off the beaten track and spent lots of quiet time (the villa is in a really quiet area) by the pool.
We all had great fun body-boarding at some of the beaches further down the coast, which benefit from Atlantic breakers.
The local restaurants were very good, but we mostly cooked at the villa (there's a great barbecue) as the kitchen was so well equipped.
The owners were most helpful whilst booking the property and Bruna, the lady who came to clean twice during our stay, was friendly and extremely efficient.

When we arrived we found that one of the parasols around the poolside had broken. We contacted the lady who looks after the villa and she replaced it with two new parasols very quickly! We were very impressed.

We'll definitely go back if we get the chance!
