Top Vau Beach Hotel Reviews

Villa Mariazinha Charming Hotel

Praia da Rocha

10/10 Excellent

Listen, they are not going to be around a lot. No one at the desk when you arrive and not throughout the night. Its more a bed and breakfast. Front door is loud, you hear it when you sleep and other guests come and go. Those are the draw backs The staff, Anna especially is lovely. They did their best with redoing the place and conveniently located. Is it the best experience ever? No. But clean safe and close to beach and good breakfast

Prainha

10/10 Excellent

What a gem this place ended up being. Owner and his son were super welcoming and even had their dog laying around. Room was very large, and the scenic view from our room was incredible. The beach attached to the back of the property was a bit difficult to get down to, but that didn’t stop us from climbing down there to get the full experience. Walking around the property to the adjoining beaches was also super enjoyable. No complaints whatsoever, would stay here 10/10 times we come back to...

Lagos Atlantic Hotel

Porto de Mós

10/10 Excellent

We stayed a quick 3 days and had a blast. Everyone was super friendly and inviting, breakfast was awesome, quick walk to the beach and a number of great restaurants, plus we were super excited for one of the better small hotel gyms we've been in - if your hotel has barbells and weights over 20kg, they're doing something right :) We'll certainly be recommending Lagos Atlantic to others and will hopefully be back in the future for more than just a few days!

RR Hotel da Rocha

Praia da Rocha

10/10 Excellent

It was our first time in Algarve, and in this hotel. We arrived 2 hours early and didn't want to drag our suitcases to our boat trip to Benagil Caves. I called the hotel and the staff was super nice allowing us to check in 2 hours early without any hesitation into a beautifully decorated room with California king bed! I didn't expect much from this hotel to be honest, but it exceeded our expectations. The room was so spacious, so clean, abundance of breakfast, the location is superb. Best...

A swimming pool at night with poolside loungers and ambient lighting.

Placid Village

Lagoa

10/10 Excellent

This was one of our favorite places that we stayed in Portugal. Placid Village was located in a quiet area, but only a 15 minute walk to the restaurants and beaches in town. Going back to the hotel was an uphill walk, but not too bad if you are in decent shape. In the evening we did Uber back. Did not cost much at all to Uber. We loved our rooms with a bath and a half, plus, a washing machine. The kitchen was great, but our favorite was the beautiful pool area. So quiet and enjoyable. We spent...

Charming Residence & Guest House Dom Manuel I (Adults only)

Praia Dona Ana

10/10 Excellent

The building has a lot of charm. Plants, flowers and classic Portuguese interior design. It feels you are in a farmhouse, not in a hotel. The breakfast was great with so many options. The attic room where we stayed was so spacious, with a huge bathroom and a private terrace. I'd point out that they gave us combined twin beds and not a queen/king bad, which wasn't ideal. Also, the listing mention that they have three pools which is not true. There is only one pool available. The other images are...
