A comfortable and well located Villa

The property is in an ideal location on the edge of the golf course and close to the main reception and shops. A pleasant walk through the golf course to the beach was a daily delight. The villa is spacious and well kept, clean and with all the amenities and equipment needed. I'll be back!

July break

We have been visiting family in Vale Do Lobo for 25 years. This was the first time that we rented a property so it felt like a leap of faith. Straight away Keith's communication content and communication style provided comfort and put me at ease. The villa is a peaceful spot and had everything we needed for a family of four. We had a very comfortable stay and a great week in this excellent property.

Beautiful villa

The villa has a very homely feel about it and it is very beautiful. It is situated in a perfect location. We were a group of 5 ladies and we used Uber to get around which was very reasonable. Keith the owner of the villa was very approachable and always got an instant reply when we contacted him. If you are looking for a perfect villa I would highly recommend it.

A fantastic holiday at a brilliant villa.

We had a brilliant stay at Keith’s villa. This was our first holiday with our 3 month old son. We had everything we needed: spacious rooms and downstairs, fully equipped kitchen, air-con and bbq. It really does have it all. Vale do Lobo is a wonderful resort. You have maintainance on hand if required. A shuttle and good security. All the shops and restaurants feel like a 5-10 mins taxi. Thank you for letting us stay. A great dialogue with Keith given the flight trouble we experienced. Our restaurant tip would be to get The Bold Octopus booked for lunch.

Relaxed Villa Folly

Lovely villa with a lot of space for the whole family. Nice terrace with a pool which a large enough to have fun for the kids and to jump in for a quick refreshment. Even if you decide to stay at the villa Folly for a day just to read your book or doing nothing at all you'll feel energised at the end of the day. All equipment worked very well. Large kitchen to prepare meals. Lovely walk through the golf area of 20 minutes to go to the beach.

Villa Folly, Vale do Lobo

Five girlfriends stayed for a week in late May. The villa was excellent, you can tell it is used as a home. We used the VDL shuttle bus for the shop and the fantastic Well swimming pool complex. An excellent service day and night. We also discovered Maria's by walking along the lovely sandy beach. A really great place but so was the on site restaurants and those at La Praca. We really enjoyed our stay on VDL. It is spotlessly clean, lovely planting and excellent friendly staff. The weather was good too! We could not fault our stay and Keith, the owner, was great getting back to us re queries etc. Highly recommmended.

Extremely well equipped house, it has everything you could need. Great BBQ and outdoor area, nice clean pool, loads of loungers. We didn't heat the pool in early April and it was fine - lovely and refreshing after being out in the sun. Beautiful and clean area very close to loads of excellent places to eat and visit.

Easter 2022

We had such a lovely week at Villa Folly. It is in a really great part of Val de Lobo that’s still close enough to enjoy everything, but is quiet and peaceful and not as built up. The views are really lovely and you can watch the beautiful sunset over the sea from the balcony each evening. The villa is very well equipped and really comfortable. It really worked for us with a 3 and 1 year old and there is a pool gate that can be installed which meant one part of the garden was totally safe. We didn’t heat the pool, which was a bit foolish in April but on two of the warmest days me and my 3 year old made it in! Next time, I would definitely get it heated at that time of year. Keith was very helpful and came back to me about any question and also helped sort out our resort passes immediately when we had an issue. Next time we will hire a car so we can access other beaches and restaurants outside of the resort more easily, however there is lots only a 15-20 minute walk away. All the staff on the resort are so friendly and helpful, so it is a great place to visit. Thank you Keith-we had a great holiday!

Fantastic Stay

Great villa, beautifully kept, great amenities. Have stayed in VDL many times and this was certainly one of the best. Lots of space both inside and out, plenty of seating in the villa, large outdoor area with sun loungers and large table and chairs. Great to have a barbecue as well. Having had a couple of questions with the owner he came back to us with answers almost immediately. Will stay again and would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for an upmarket stay in Vale Do Lobo.

About the host

Hosted by Mr Keith Spengler

Host profile image
Hi there, this is my family - I have two daughters, Fern and Holly, (hence the name Villa Folly) and am now blessed with three beautiful granddaughters, Ruby, Nelly and Poppy - who arrived in August 2020! It would appear that we do not do boys! We all live in Oxfordshire and try to have an annual break together at Villa Folly which is our second home. I am now retired - but lead a very busy life with golf typically at the centre of it - particularly when we are at the villa! I also do Spinning which has helped to keep me as fit as I am, particularly during lock down, when I have used Zoom to join my classes in Portugal with my local spinning and health instructor (I would highly recommend her whilst you are at the villa). It is important to us that our guests enjoy our second home as we do and to this end we endeavour to do everything possible to ensure they have a happy and relaxing holiday whilst there.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the Algarve after a friend took took me there for a weekend golfing trip. The villa is our second home. We bought it off plan and when it was built we were not disappointed. The area is beautiful and quiet yet close to all the amenities. It has been fitted to a modern standard with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and plenty of living space. My family and I think there is no where better to enjoy the weather and relax.

What makes this property unique

I absolutely love Vale do Lobo and the location of the villa in Val das Flores. Even during the peak holiday season it is lovely and quiet. The outside area is mainly patio and pool. Outside dining is near to the kitchen and also has a great BBQ. Both bedrooms have their own private patios for you to relax in as well and from the master bedroom patio you have views across the 8th tee of the Ocean Golf Course to the sea in the distance. It is heaven.
