At the Villa, every room is equipped with a wardrobe. With a private bathroom, rooms at Vila Louro also boast a garden view. The units at the accommodation are fitted with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels.

I can’t imagine a more perfect place to stay in this area of Portugal. This was a last minute change of itinerary for us and a highlight of the trip. The house has so much character and so well appointed. The location is very close, just minutes to the coastline. Our room was very nice and bed super comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. 10 stars!

Location was great, very close to the beach and town. Superb if you enjoy walking. Overall very quiet and friendly neighborhood. Property had everything we needed and more. Excellent location if you are traveling with a dog. The provided computer monitor was a great bonus. Wifi was very good. Smart TV allowed us to access Netflix. The bed was comfortable. The host (management company) was very responsive and professional. Even though we ran into a couple of issues they did everything they could to resolve them. Overall a great stay.

We loved absolutely everything! Very big apartment- great for family with three kids- there were games for kids which they enjoyed. Super comfy beds, clean, lots of towels, freshly washed blankets. Big comfortable bathroom. Kitchen equipped with everything: ample amount of cutlery, cups, plates, bowls of all sorts and sizes. Microwave, electric kettle, coffee machine, toaster, stove (gas) dishwasher, washing machine, everything anyone would need! Lots of lamps and extensions. Pool was great! Little one and bigger one deep end around 2,5 meters. 5 minutes walk to the beach. Funny how there’s just one grocery shop, vegetables market and butcher and like five million of clothes shops 🤣🤣🤣 Communication with the property agency was effective- Mariana is the nicest and helpful person to deal with. We were arriving late evening and been delayed for hours and she was making sure we arrived safe to the apartment in the middle of the night. And there was welcome pack waiting for us- nice surprise ❤️

    Beautiful villas with private pool which are well appointed and well equipped. We stayed in the villa green with a family of 4 and it was the luxury and private space we hoped for. Having access to the hotel lobby, bar and pool (if you are over 16 years) was the cherry on top as it was peaceful and child free. The staff are all amazing and so friendly. Nothing is too much trouble! A perfect 5 star holiday place , we were blown away !

    We absolutely loved Noahs. The hotel is beautiful and exceeded my expectations. It was so chill - the perfect place to spend a week relaxing with the family. Great range of activities for the kids. The staff were all lovely and super helpful. The food was delicious - breakfast every morning was a great start to the day. The local village is lovely and it's so close to Lisbon and other places worth visiting.

    Everything about this place is divine! From the people to the breakfast to the location - I could keep going.. It is one of the most beautiful and relaxing places we've ever stayed. This place is for complete relaxation and disconnection from the world and to take in and appreciate mother nature. The villa townhouse was perfect for our family of 6. The activities for the kids were wonderful. Can't wait to go back with family and with my partner for a romantic trip too!
