About this property

A lovely Villa in the heart of Vilamoura, close enough to walk to the Marina etc but yet far enough to enjoy peaceful surroundings the sound of birds tweeting and the occasional ping of a golf club hitting a ball off the 13th tee!

The Villa has 5 bedrooms, 2 of which are ensuite rooms. 1 of the ensuite rooms has a kingsize bed and the 4 other bedrooms have twin beds that convert into super kingsize beds if required. There is a family bathroom on the 1st floor.

There is a comfortable Lounge with Smart tv and free Netflix and dining area which seats 10 people. A modern fully equipped kitchen which includes dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer.

A playroom which has a 50" Smart tv free access to Netflix is provided.

Outside there is a seating area with patio table chairs and BBQ to enjoy al fresco dining. An outside lounge area to the front of the property. A seating area on the balcony and a circular sun bed that converts into a circular seating area with central table on the roof terrace that leads off the mezzanine bedroom.

The Villa has its own private swimming pool which can be heated in the cooler months and poolside sun loungers making it a comfortable area to sit or sunbathe.

The property is 20 minutes walking distance to the Vilamoura Marina and a bus stops at the end of the cul-de-sac so a car is not necessary. It is also walking distance to the Tennis academy for those seeking lessons or just some tennis court time.

There are endless attractions in Vilamoura, not only the numerous golf courses, mini golf and beaches but many others. It is a great place for those who enjoy their exercise as workout benches are provided for those who enjoy such activities along the main avenue in Vilamoura.of

Review

The villa was lovely and spacious plenty of room for 10 of us staying. Great location to the marina, restaurants and beach or we got Ubers which were reasonable for going out of the area. Karen was great to communicate with before and during our stay and thank you for letting us have an earlier check in.

Amazing

The villa is stunning and is so well positioned (not in the hustle and bustle) but within walking distance. We came as a family and we’re so thrilled upon arrival; the villa was spotless and is so well equipped. Contact prior to arrival was easy with very quick responses. Will definitely rebook if we holiday in the area again. Thank you!

Vilamoura Property

Great location, good communication, enough parking, clean house and clean pool. 4 out of 5 stars due a plumbing odor from the second floor bathroom. I’m sure they can resolve this issue.

Lovely villa

Karen the property manager was really helpful and always answered our questions. The villa was lovely but some things were a little tired. One of the sun beds were cracked. The tv in the games room did not work. The cushions on the sun loungers we’re quite dirty having said that the pool was very popular and made the holiday. The marina was quite a walk but very nice and quarteira was another lovely resort. I would recommend this accommodation.

Holiday in Vilamoura

Would actually say property is nicer than pictures. Is a 20 min walk to beginning of Marina if you have young children would recommend taking a pram. Have some suggestions to make the place even better such as upgrading the furniture outside. We discovered a roof terrace late in the holiday but hadn’t been cleaned. Could be a great space. Perhaps a welcome pack would be nice to for guests. Some beers in the fridge though which the boys liked. Thanks for a great stay.

Lovely villa

This villa is lovely, clean and well represented in the photos. It is attached onto another villa and is in a residential area so some noise from surrounding homes eg dogs barking. The pool area is great, pool was cleaned during the stay. The bedrooms all have air conditioning as does the living room. One of the rooms is a mezzanine which we could see from the photos and it was used by the 2 older of the 4 children as they could navigate the steps safely. We didn’t use the basement as it smelt a little damp and we had plenty space upstairs to socialise. It is around 20mins walk to the marina, a spar around 10mins walk away. There is a free bus (white route) from the bottom of the street down to the marina and back again. Uber is also quick and cheap. Overall we had a great stay.

Lovely Villa, very residential location and smelly drains

The good The villa itself is lovely, clean, nice living area, kitchen has been refitted, bedrooms are a good size and air con all round. Pool area is good, again very clean and plenty of space to eat and drink, sunbeds and a table and chairs. The OK - In a very residential area with the nearest shop about a 15/20 minute walk away. The not so good. The water system might have a problem, every time you turned a tap on / shower on there was a terrible stench, not just once but every time across all rooms. seems there maybe a blockage somewhere unless that's the way the Portuguese system is. The entertainment room downstairs was just damp/musky, not a great place to sit in.

Well equipped villa conveniently located close to all Villamoura has to offer.

We were a party of 5 couples visiting Villamoura for the long weekend. Villa Layla was just perfect! Ideally located and well equipped with all modern conveniences. The pool was a particular hit and while we elected not to have it heated, with average daily temperatures of 26/28 degrees, the water temperature was just fine. Would have preferred to have known about additional cost of heating the pool (£150) at time of booking - perhaps it was mentioned in small print, but I don’t recall. We would definitely return to Villa Layla again, but there are a couple of small housekeeping issues that should be addressed; 1) As requested, we did use the pool towels on the cream loungers, but on arrival, these loungers were already very soiled and some seams were ripped. 2) The top hinge on the door in the upstairs bathroom is not screwed in properly so the door is hanging at an angle. To avoid long term damage, this hinge should be addressed. 3) Unpleasant sewage smell from the bathrooms - improved a little after the first day so perhaps this had followed a long period of vacancy?

Very impressive villa with everything to make our holiday experience enjoyable.

Only one criticism was that we saw no one from we arrived at the villa to we left ten days later. There was no help or brochure on operating the tv for example. Also for a 10 day stay we thought we would have towels and sheets changed during our stay which was not the case!!

House is great but if you dont sort out the electrics you will loose trade...frequent trips.

No welcome pack, restaurants listed were all miles away, the marina is stuffed with good ones. Towel rails are dangerously hot or off. Clothes rail turned up on last day ! Safety signs on pool ? Access too easy from front. Head warning on basement stairs ? Taxi firm you sent was good.

Beautiful relaxing holiday

The owners of Villa Layla really have thought of everything to make your stay there a home from home. The villa itself is beautiful, with plenty of room outside to relax and enjoy the very private pool. The villa is situated in a quiet location but the marina and the hustle and bustle of the town is just a 20 minute stroll away. The villa is spacious and tastefully furnished and decorated and it was an absolute delight to stay there.

Lovely spacious modern villa, perfect for our family gathering

Villa was very well presented, we were made very welcome by the owner. Our family group really enjoyed the time spent , rooms were adjustable so were able to have configured to suit the sleeping arrangements. Very modern amenties for eating in and enjoying the sunshine. Kitchen fully equipped but also a 15-20 walk to marina or if walking not your thing there is a bus stop near by. Fully recommended & endorsed by all our group and even better you really do not need a car as a local taxi transfer is only 30 mins away.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Tyler-Smith

I am Married with 4 children, 2 girls who have flown the nest and 2 boys aged 13yrs and 11yrs. We live in Nottingham. We enjoy skiing and golf and the boys also enjoy surfing, although you would struggle to catch me on a surf board!

Why they chose this property

I loved this villa from the first moment I saw it. Not only is it perfect for families and friends but it is in walking distance of the Marina and the tennis academy which means I can book lessons for the boys or court time and the boys can walk or bike down to the courts on their own. We also have the equivalent of Vilamoura's Boris bikes at the end of Rua Melvin Jones. The Vilamoura train which takes you on a tour of Vilamoura stops nearby and we are on the local bus route which means there is no need for transport. This for us was the perfect location.

What makes this property unique

The Villa is at the end of a quiet cut-de-sac. From the upstairs terrace you can watch golfers on the 13th tee of the Pinhal golf course. In the morning you can hear the birds and seagulls which feels like being in the country at the same time as near the sea. I find the Villa invokes a sense of calm especially when sat by the pool area or on one of the terraces.
