Great villa in a fantastic location
We stayed for 2 weeks in August with 2 teenagers, who are never happy, and even they cracked a smile occasionally! The private pool was a superb size, as was the patio around it. The rooms were all a good size and the maid service was frequent. Wonderful location, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

A great week’s holiday
Vale do Lobo is just a great place to holiday with young children. There’s plenty to do whatever the weather and the beach is one of the best. This villa is excellently positioned - and the heated pool was a major breakthrough: 2 and 5 year old grand kids were always eager to get in. Communications with the owner and his agent were always positive and helpful from the get-go. We had a fine time and intend to visit again.

Warm stay
This property is well located, extremely silent and has a wonderful outside space with a spacious pool, with lots of sun. From there you can appreciate a vivid contrast between the blue of the sky and the green of the trees. This is why I think it would deserve a bit more investment on the inside that is in need. But we had wonderful holidays.

A beautiful villa in Vale do Lobo
A chilled holiday in a lovely villa 5 minutes walk to the beach and loads of amenities including golf, tennis, restaurants and bars. Lovely pool and poolside area for eating alfresco. Have stayed many times and would thoroughly recommend it. Within easy reach of the beautiful Algarve.

Excellent villa and ideal location
I cannot fault this villa. It was well equipped, ideally located and clean. The pool is a really good size and the owner and all representatives were so helpful. We all really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend.

A relaxing week at a home away from home
My wife and I visited Casa Wowei with our 3 children (2 teenagers) for some early season sun and we were not disappointed. The 3 bedrooms are all good sizes feeding off a main living area which was ideal for relaxing in the evenings - wifi and Sky TV were a big plus for the kids. The décor is traditional rather than modern and that suited us fine. The kitchen was clean and practical and big enough for the comings and goings of the kids while we were preparing food. For me, however, this villa is all about the outside. The patio area is lovely, especially under the arches which was a great place to sit even when there was the odd rain shower. I expect it will give pleasant relief from the sun in the high summer too! The pool was warm and a really good size. Sometimes you think photos might have been distorted and that they won't look as good in reality but that was definitely not the case here. The villa is next to a road (they are never busy with traffic and no distraction of a night) but when you are in the pool you are not overlooked at all. We were in the pool several times a day and the kids loved it. The comments about location in other reviews are spot on. You can walk to all parts in a few minutes, including the supermarket and the golf clubhouse. We hired a car which, in hindsight, we could have survived without but even then we preferred to walk down to the Praca rather than drive. Security around the whole area is noticeable but not oppressive and helped me sleep more soundly at night. I had never rented a villa before so was not really sure what to do or ask for but I need not have worried as the owner was very helpful and always quick to respond. A little gift pack on arrival was also a nice touch. All in all a lovely place to stay and one that hopefully we can return to.

stop looking this is where you should come!
Amazingly positioned, clean, very safe, well maintained, superbly equipped, exceptions outdoor eating area, and very comfortable villa with the best heated pool available! It's like a jacuzzi which for out of high season holidaying is essential with young children. Adults too (including nanna) were in the pool in December! Everything is in walking distance for playground, tennis, beach, golf, restaurants, coffee and pastries and supermarket! No need for a car. It has its own garden away from the pool so those with very young toddlers have lots of space too. It would be ideal for those holiday makers with mobility issues too as its all on one level and spacious. Previously we've always stayed at the Dona Filipe (the 5 star hotel in Vale do Lobo) and friends of ours have stayed in the 5 star Hilton in Vilamoura. But having found this villa we will never stay anywhere else in the area. Our friends who visited the villa from Vilamoura will also never stay anywhere else, or be fooled by other pool advertised as being heated (they were so envious)! The owner himself and the management company could not be more attentive, honest and successful at what they do. Ask as many questions as you need to they will help and answer as many as you ask! Honestly answered too. Quickly. We would recommend for everyone we know for all ages.

4th visit and our 5th is already booked!!!
It was our 4th family visit over the last 3 years. Our children are now 8 and 5 and we truely do feel like we are "coming home" when we enter the resort and even more so when we enter casa wowei! We have now booked our 5th for new year! First and foremost is the truely amazing heated pool! We have been at Easter, Xmas twice and October half term, the kids are never out of the pool it's like jacuzzi temperature! We have booked villas with heated pool before........ I've you book here you will never go anywhere else!!!!!! The steps into the pool are the width of the pool making it suitable children. My youngest often sits on the edge playing. Loads of pool toys for our use and a great sized garden! Best pool we've ever rented! Secondly is the fantastic location of the villa. 13 mins walk even with kids to the beach, crazy golf, praca with all the kids entertainment and restaurants. Our favoures are the Dona Filipe hotel restaurant and breeze on the beach. Our youngest did the walk since she was 2! 5 mins walk to the golf club for drinks and spikes casual dining or the more luxurious too! Very reasonable compared to the beach prices too! About 5 mins to a little playground and the tennis academy where you can rent a court etc.... Thirdly the safety of the villa and the vale do lobo area itself! It's got it's own 24hour security patrol the road the villa is on! This is always a concern as a parent rest assure I asked a million questions before our first booking and the owner was so thorough and honest. He even drew a layout of the villa to put my mind at rest about how close the kids room would be to ours. Finally the villa is equipped with copious cutlery pans crockery should you wish not to eat out in the most amazing restaurants all in walking distance! A very well stocked supermarket is within easy walking walking distance too! The owner himself has always reassured any of my queries and always is more than generous leaving complimentary gifts on arrival. His management company also go far and beyond requests to ensure your stay is fabulous! The maid is amazing too (2 hours weekdays!!!) unobtrusive! Can't wait to be there again!

Lovely villa with a fantastic pool
Casa Wowei is a lovely three bed villa with a fantastic swimming pool, providing hours of entertainment for the children. The villa is well maintained with free wifi and with access to UK TV channels. The villa management team provided excellent customer service ensuring we were happy with every element of our stay. Casa Wowei is within walking distance of the Praca which has a host of restaurants to choose from as well as live band every evening and kids entertainment too. With the beach close by, tennis courts and crazy golf there is lots of onsite activities as well as watersports and go karting a short drive away. I would highly recommend this property for both families and couples alike.

Great location
Lovely property in a fantastic location, just 10-15 mins walk from the beach and restaurants. Well equipped villa with lots of great pool and beach toys. Pool was lovely and warm as paid for the extra heating. Not overlooked at all. Quiet area. Great service from the owner while staying at the villa.

our second visit in a year!
We stayed in this villa in March 2014 &October 2014 and found it to be perfect for our 18 month old daughter (who took her first wobbly steps under the bourgonvilla terrace). I have been coming to this area for the last 24 years and the villa is in a great location-an easy 10 minute walk to the glorious beach and bars &a 15 min drive to Quateria for great fresh fish and other produce. The villa is all on one level-the main reason we returned in October as many other villas in the area had the master bedroom upstairs with all others bedrooms downstairs- the villa is well equipped and hopelessly clean. If there is a problem e.g. we didn't have any hot water one morning the management company were able to advise and help instantly. The pool is fantastic especially as it is heated-we spent many hours kicking &splashing away and making good use of the thoughtful pool toys. Will we be back for a third visit? -absolutely-have already booked for April 2015!

Holiday at Cas Wowei
Spent a glorious 10 days at this wonderful villa. Initially weather was cold - but no problem with central heating. We also had the fantastic pool heated which was lovely and warm. Property was south facing so we had full sun. Just a 4 minute walk to Spikes bar & restaurant which we loved. The courtesy bus proved to be excellent. Great villa lovely surroundings plus the owner proved to be brilliantly helpful.

Casa Wowei
We stayed at the Casa Wowei villa in June with our 2 children (4 and 2) and had a wonderful holiday. The villa is siutated on the Val Do Lobo complex -a fantastic location for children, close to the beach, near the tennis centre, and a short walk from the Praca which has great children's entertainment to help keep them occupied whilst you enjoy a meal at one of the restaurants there. The villa has three double bedrooms, a lounge/dinning room and a well equiped kitchen, perfect for the family. It looks out onto a beautiful heated pool, with steps down into it, great for the children. There are also an aray of children's beach and pool toys - a lovely touch rather than having to buy them and leave them behind at the end of the holiday! The villa is secluded, allowing you to relax by the pool side if you so choose. There is also an outside dinning area and a BBQ giving the option of you to enjoy alfreco dining if you so choose. The villa is cleaned daily by the maid who is very friendly and the management agents, are very helpful, even arranging swimming lessons for my 4 year old daughter at the villa pool. We had a brillisnt holiday and will be returing again in 2014!

As amazing as ever!!!!
This was our second time in this villa and we will most definitely never go anywhere else in VDL!!! We have been at Christmas and now at Easter and we have the 2 best holidays ever! It is such a safe villa in such a great location for two young children aged 5 and 2. It is perfectly situated only 15mins walk to the beach at the Praca, it is also close to the supermarket for provisions, the pool is heated to a fantastic temperature so our children were still in the pool when it was raining!! The villa and pool were always spotlessly clean, there was all the hot water you need, very lovely maid service, all the kitchen equipment you would need, toys for the children etc... We just wish we could more freqently!! Before the children we frequently stayed at Dona filipa but this villa gives us many more options with much more flexibility. We love it!
