We were very impressed on arrival in The Old Village, Vilamoura. The apartment was excellent value for money. Ideal for a couple exploring the area. We will return
Stayed for 8 days. Great location for shop pools and Jakks Bar. We have stayed on the Old Village for a few years now. We new it didnt have any outdoor space but did have a very small area outside the door where we had breakfast as we do like to eat outside when on holiday..Apar
Excellent place to stay all amenities very close by ,would definitely stay again
Small downside if you just want to relax by and of the pools it will cost your âŹ4 per day per person sunbeds very comfy but most umbrellas where broken
Had a wonderful stay at this beautiful little apartment, ok we didnât cook lol who wants to when you are surrounded by beautiful buildings and fantastic villa houses, would love to return one day, bed was very comfortable home from home really, shower very powerful and hot. Tv even had English discovery programmes, we went out to the poll most days. And at round the bars, lovely little village
Thank you for everything ! The location is very convenient and confortable for a family of three. Easy parking, Nice restaurants and cĂŽvenience store next door. 3 outdoor pools to enjoy. Great communication with Gail ! Il
The apartment is very small with limited daylight. Bed and furniture is uncomfortable. The Old Village was a big disappointment. We will not be returning!
This apartment was ideal. From the get go Gail was brilliant at responding to any queries we had and making sure our every need was met.
The apartment is in a fantastic location central to every amenity with the marina only a 25-minute walk away.
The apartment itself was spotless and fitted with air conditioning and a fan meaning we slept soundly and werenât awake with the heat. The shower was superb with an abundance of hot water. Although we didnât use the cooker it was nice to know this was an option.
Our flight wasnât until the night time but fortunately Gail was able to offer us a late check-out which was deeply appreciated.
This apartment is ideal for any couple looking for comfy accommodation in a prime location.
Thanks Gail and Darren for your wonderful hospitality!
We absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely recommend. Pool/shop/bars/restaurants all within a minute walk of the apartment and an easy walk to the marina or 3-5 euro in an Uber when it was too hot to walk. The apartment had everything we needed and more, was spotless and we had a great nights sleep every night. Communication with Gail the property manager was amazing. She made everything so easy and provided us with all the details we needed before we arrived and told us to contact her if we needed. Gail even accommodated a late check out for us as we didnât fly until late evening which allowed us to enjoy our last day to the fullest (thank you Gail)! Overall we had the best week and would 100% book again with Gail if we return to the area :)
My wife and I stayed for two weeks at this apartment and enjoyed every minute. The apartment is as seen in the photos with an ample size bedroom and bathroom. It also has a living area with TV and Hi-Fi and kitchen with everything you need including a table and four chairs, cooker, washing machine, toaster, fridge and coffee maker.
Gail is a great host, we had a few issues at the airport but she kept in touch and organised the transfers for us, even letting us stay in the apartment until 6pm on the final day, thanks Gail.
The village itself comes with 3 pools and we didn't once have trouble finding a sun bed.The pools weren't too busy but we did come before the school holidays. There are plenty of bars and places to eat on site or you can walk into the harbour which takes about 15 minutes. At the end of a hot day you might want to come back in an Uber which costs 3 to 4 euros.
Great place, would like to come again sometime.
A lovely little apartment in a beautiful location with everything we needed for a great trip. The host was extremely helpful throughout our booking and we would definitely recommend it to family and friends. Hopefully we will be able to return soon.
A ground floor apartment with charm. Clean and tidy. Gail, our host, was very responsive to our questions and problems. On second night we spotted a cockroach and Gail offered to come and set up traps on our last of three days. Also saw a big cockroach outside in the resort. Gail was also kind enough to refund âŹ30 for our 3-day stay due to this incident.
A nice little apartment in the old village. We were able to do what we went to do. Not very much! Reading, resting, walking to the marina etc. Gail was first class at responding to messages before we went and when we were there. An excellent host. Thank you Gail.
We had an amazing stay at the property! Gail the owner was fantastic. She made up the sofa bed for me as was stopping with my mom. Communication was second to none and the apartment was lovely. Thank you for having us!
Amazing little apartment with everything you could need
Great location in the Old Village resort close to the supermarket and pool. Everything you could need for a get away and great communication from the host. I would highly recommend this to friends and family.đ
This apartment was clean & tidy. A very nice layout.
I have stayed in many apartments
On the old village this one was very homely.
I was a bit worried about the stairs as I have small children but they was fine I did change round the rooms so the children stayed in the âmaster roomâ but both rooms were a nice size and had air conditioning in.
The roof Terrace was nice with a table and 2 sun loungers & a small coffee sitting area.
Overall I would definitely book this apartment again.
Communication was very swift & the owner was also helpfully & happy to answer any questions.
