Villa On Boavista Golf Resort, Lagos, Western Algarve

Fiona the owner was very helpful, she answered emails very promptly. The property was very clean and well equipped. Roberta the property manager was also very pleasant and helpful. I would have no reservation in recommending this property.

Villa was excellent - had everything we needed for our ten day stay, including fresh towels and cleaning half way through. Area felt safe and secure. Pool was always quiet, even in August, with plenty of sunbeds any time of day. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

We have just returned from a fabulous week at Fiona's villa on Boavista. The property was clean, spacious and had everything for two families with 3 young children. Beach towels, beach and pool toys and ice boxes an added bonus. Ideally situated with views over the course, lovely outside space and next to a super pool with kiddies splash pool. Fiona was extremely helpful and answered any questions promptly. We would return without hesitation.

Mixed. In our view, this property is well suited for a short term rental as opposed to a long term rental. We booked for 3 months, so this villa basically became our ‘home’ during our stay. While overall we were moderately satisfied, we were disappointed in the quality of the two mattresses in the master suite (zero side support and extremely soft), the squeaking bed frame in the 2nd upstairs bedroom, quality of the pillows and bedding, some leaking shower hoses, absence of an upright vacuum for carpeting, the 10 year old living room tv with no Netflix, a weak internet signal that could be improved with a fibre upgrade, lack of a basic coffee pod machine, an old wobbly recliner with a torn ottoman in the living room and some lights not working even after bulbs were replaced. The cleaner (Lisa) and the local representative (Roberta) were extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Roberta quickly arranged to replace a broken dishwasher we found upon arrival, ensured the heating units were promptly serviced when required and, with a technician, tried to remedy problems with the tv in the living area. Roberta coordinated our check out and saw/confirmed that we left the property in very good order. Bottom line, if the owner were to invest 1500-2000 to improve property shortcomings, it would be a VERY suitable property for any discriminating long term tenants. We are returning to BoaVista for 3 months in 2026, but have booked a different property.
