Villa Lagos Algarve for families & friends, 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, pool, BBQ

LIVING ROOM, KITCHEN, 6 BEDROOMS, 7 BATHROOMS, GARDEN, BBQ, PRIVATE POOL, 6 TERRACES

'VILA BOAVISTA' means 'Beautiful View' and was built on about 14,000 square meters of land.

The Portuguese architect Jose Nobre designed a villa based on the experience and knowledge of Portuguese architecture, which was built in a round construction principle.

The result was a house with 6 bedrooms, 7 marble bathrooms, 1 living room and 1 breakfast room with a small but very well equipped kitchen. Thanks to a modern central heating system, Vila Boavista can of course be cozily warm should it get a bit chilly in winter.

Our house surprises its guests with beautiful rooms, furnished with love and care. The double rooms have extra beds, private bathroom, refrigerator and SAT TV.

With all the joy of the community, our Vila Boavista also gives you the opportunity to have some alone time.

Extensive patios, a generously sized swimming pool and a garden with countless flowers, olive trees, oleander bushes, lemon trees, palm trees and orange trees inspire dreaming and lingering.

Of course, you should not miss the BBQ fun: A large barbecue area with seating for up to 18 people is available for our guests!

The exclusive setting, the view of Lagos, the sea and the many little extras of the Vila Boavista promise sunny and relaxing vacations on the Algarve.

The property's spacious patios, the many small lounge areas, the large pool as the focal point of the garden and a delicious grilled sole with a tasty glass of Vinho Verde will certainly wrap up many a sunny vacation day.

Beautiful nights on the patios or in the palm garden of Vila Boavista, with a view of Lagos by night, endow our guests with the magic and romance of this enchanting land.

We look forward to welcoming you with your team, friends, children and grandchildren!
And maybe soon it is time to say:
"BOA VIAGEM! Have a good trip and welcome! Sun, sea and palm trees, grilled Mediterranean dreams and a glass of Vinho Verde are waiting for you…


FURTHER DETAILS:

Of course, the Vila Boavista is cozy and warm via central heating, in case it gets a bit chilly during winter.
There are 3 double rooms with direct exit to garden and patios. 1 double room has no outside exit; because this room is mostly inhabited by children.
The tower room, as a "master room" with two balconies, is frequently occupied by the organizers of the tour group; just as a small reward for planning and preparing the group trip.
The external apartment with its own entrance is preferred by all guests who like to have some private space.
The kitchen is fully equipped. This includes, of course, an XXL coffee maker, refrigerator, dishwasher and electric stove.
There is plenty of dishware for all hungry guests and even iced coffee glasses are not missing.
Our guests really enjoy cooking for themselves or barbecuing in the garden. All this is possible thanks to the generously equipped kitchen and a (lighted) garden grill!
A marble counter connects kitchen and dining room, which has two glass doors leading directly to the large patios in the garden.
Of course, a stereo system for musical entertainment and TV is available.
The living room is very cozy and has its own bathroom. Two French doors lead directly to the patios outside.
A few weeks before arrival our guests will receive a room allocation plan. Here, each room is again well described. We recommend to allocate the rooms already before arrival. So everything is perfectly prepared when the guests arrive.

Pool
The 6m x 12m pool starts with a wide staircase leading to the initially only 1m deep part of the pool. The water-washed extensive staircase is the perfect place to have a cocktail together, chat with the swimmers or play with the children.
The depth of the pool is slowly descending from 1m to 2.20m, so it is also suitable for children or poor swimmers.
Nevertheless, children should, of course, never be left unattended!

BBQ
There is plenty of seating in the barbecue area! A large stone-built barbecue offers a lot of space for many delicious barbecue specialties.
And in case the weather should get too hot: The pool is only about 10 meters away; a jump into the refreshing water... and then you go on with the barbecue!

This is what you can expect on your arrival. We have prepared the following for our guests:

All beds are already made on your arrival; any extra beds you may have booked are also prepared for you.

You will find towels and shower cloths in your bathroom. Kitchen towels are provided in the kitchen.

Extra bed linen and towels are ready in the SOS closet.
The washing machine can be used free of charge.

Each bathroom has a hair dryer.

Housekeeping staff comes once a week to clean the rooms.

Fab Villa!
We were a group of 12 adults celebrating a 50th birthday and the villa was perfect for us. 6 bedrooms and all with their own bathrooms which was great. Lots of outside space and places to relax with enough loungers and seating areas for us all. A lovely big pool and beautiful gardens. Plenty of crockery and kitchen utensils and lots of fridges. Everything we needed! The only small issues were with communication: no room layout provided in advance (per the listing), no key code provided and nobody there to meet us so we had to call Germany for the key code but we did get an immediate answer. We also had trouble getting Uber’s to find us and one just didn’t turn up but charged us: not the fault of the villa but sharing for others’ sake. You definitely need a car because there are lots of lovely beaches and places to visit. We had the best time!!!!!

Fantastic Holiday Property!
A group of us stayed here for a long weekend and found the house to be a real highlight of our trip. The bedrooms are all very spacious and comfortable, the pool and gardens were huge and well-kept. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need, and the communication and check in was hassle free. Would definitely choose to stay here again!

Family Getaway
VIla Boavista was the perfect house for our family to gather for five days. Its hilltop location captured the breeze, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, the garden was beautiful, and the pool and terraces spectacular. Antonia and Adelaide were the perfect hostesses, preparing breakfast and a delicious Portuguese fish dinner. Everyone loved the place and we would not hesitate to go back again and again.

Everything went like clockwork!
We had a large family party to celebrate my wife’s very important birthday! Antonia was so helpful every morning for a couple of hours which made an enormous difference. The villa was totally perfect with all bedrooms ensuite. It was very hot and a couple of extra fans would have been nice! Anyway a big thank you to everyone concerned

Fantastic holiday
We had a fantastic week here. The pool is massive and very deep. 2.2m Kids loved that . We loved the verandas dotted around the villa and saw some amazing sunrises from the top verranda overlooking the sea. The kitchen had lots of crockery and glasses etc for us all. We had many BBQs with our Portuguese family. Antonia was lovely and very helpful and it was useful that one of us spoke good German. Our Portuguese wasn't very good. Great communication before we arrived so we knew what we needed. ( not much at all) We used Uber loads to go to and from Lagos. Fab location. Often only 5 Euros to go to the Town Centre. It was great that most of the bedrooms had fans as it was pretty hot even at night. The separate entrance for room 6 was very useful for the dog. We had fun making memories at this lovely villa and I'm sure we will be back.

Friends holiday
We really loved this home and would certainly return! It's super hard to summarised, as there was so much that was good about it! The gardens were beautiful and well kept, the pool was the best - really big and deep, so lots of laughter and games had there! The rooms were well kept and there was so much space - all having our own fridge. (Note there is no AC just fans so our pregnant friend struggled). The outdoor seating areas work well, and the roof terrace was such a perfect bonus! It is a really close drive to town and to a beach, and good instructions to get there. There were a lot of amenities at the property - things to cook with, parasols, games - that we found everything we needed and more within the home. The outdoor BBQ was great too. We were so so pleased with this home. Only negative was that there are two neighbouring dogs which live at the bottom of the hill and come on to the property every early morning and late evening and poo on the lawn - not great when you have children with you! But yes, we would return in a heartbeat! Thank you!!

Lovely holiday home
The house was perfect for our girls holiday, amazing place and great location. The address on the listing never seemed to work on Uber - always took us to another address so watch out for this! And we were also asked for €300 cash deposit on arrival which we hadn’t been told about prior which took us by surprise. But overall it was a great place to stay. Beautiful pool and garden.

Amazing Time
We had an amazing time at Villa Boavista. There were 12 friends in total and we were there for 3 days in total. Perfect location where we didn't have to worry too much about neighbours and was only a short Uber into town. Lovely golf course a walk away. Antonio was super helpful with setting up of breakfast and dinner 1 night. She did get grumpy one morning as we had left a few bottles outside after a long night. We weren't expecting her to clean and would obviously never have checked out of the property with it in that position. Everything else was great

Villa was good having plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for us all . Brilliant having Antonio every morning to shop and cook breakfast for us all and clean so we could relax. Plenty of space to relax around the pool but pool cool at this time of the year so not used much. You need a car but good location to explore the coast each way which is very scenic.

Property was very hard to find. Owners need to update the pin drop in their instructions.
Rooms were very hot and stupefy with no fans. Supplied towels were very small and need replacing. Best part about the stay was Antonia the cook, very helpful and obliging. Finding the property was a big hassle for the guest groups arriving on the first day and getting taxis/ubers during the stay.

Perfect Party House
We were a group of 18 celebrating a friends Birthday and the house worked well. Plenty of space for everyone with all bedrooms benefiting from an en suite bathroom. Its a nice looking villa with a great pool and beautiful gardens and given you will hopefully be outside for the majority of your holiday, its the villa's most attractive asset.

Beautiful villa, absolutely perfect
We had a group of 14 of us staying for 3 nights in what can only be described as a completely idilic setting. The villa is enormous and comfortably slept 14 people. The terrace is perfect for food and wine in the evening, with the large pool providing a welcome break from the Portuguese heat. It's located under 5 minutes from the centre of Lagos but yet remote enough so that you can enjoy your stay and not need to worry about being people talking and enjoying themselves later in the evening. Taxi's are about 10 Euro's into Lagos. I would highly recommend and certainly stay again.

Great Holiday
Our group enjoyed a great holiday at the Vila Boavista. The Vila offered everything you need for a nice holiday and the rooms were very comfortable with a bathroom for each room. The location is close enough to the airport in Faro and Lagos and grocery shopping is very close by. Even though we opted against the daily maid service, Antonia came every second day to clean. We had hired her to cook for us a couple of times and the meals were delicious. Antonia was very helpful with all of our concerns and questions. The outdoor area was very spacious and a huge pool helped to cool off from the nice sun. The garden and some other areas could use some TLC, but nothing major to complain about. We would return for another holiday and we can recommend the Vila for large groups as a holiday vacation.

Great place for family and friends!
We were 5 families (18 people) with kids ranging from 2 - 12 who came for a weeks holiday. The place is very comfortable with 7 large bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and most with access to the garden. The house does not have a common indoor living area other than the kitchen/dining, but this made no difference to us as we were mostly hanging out around the pool or terrace - and the pool and gardens were lovely. The location is very convenient, with a supermarket a 5 mins drive and a 10 mins drive to praia Donna Ana, Meia Praia, Ponte Peadade and the Marina. Close enough to central Lagos with it being far enough to enjoy the privacy. Antonia was a great help and really efficient - organizing all the shopping and dinners each evening - plus all the cleaning up! No easy task with that many people around! Would definitely recommend this place!

Lovely villa with a large pool , en suites in every room beautiful garden
Would recommend flying into faro rather than Lisbon as it's a 2 and a half hour drive to Lisbon . Other wise a lovely villa with some fantastic beaches close by . You can have a maid full time , to cook & clean etc or she can just come & clean periodically . The villa had a beautiful garden and a large pool . The kitchen is really designed for one person to cook , ( lots of room to sit and eat inside & outside ) .Antonia ( the maid ) was really friendly and helpful and has lots of local Knowledge about restaraunts etc she speaks some English but Mainly German . We managed to understand each other despite our lack of any language skills . It was great to have a bathroom for each room as we were a large party with 4 generations all with different sleeping and waking times , so no arguments over bathrooms . Any problems we reported to Antonia were quickly sorted out for us and she was very kind to the children .
