Overall Ratings & Reviews Vila Valverde Design Country Hotel

Beautiful property. They need to have both heat and air conditioning options available to guests. They only had heat available when I was there, and the room was soooo hot I could not sleep. The breakfast was delicious. We were not provided a map of the property or area, it would have been nice to know where the walking trails were.

Fantastic place just outside Luz. Wonderful grounds, staff, and rooms. Walkable into Luz. Highly recommend

Overall a truly beautiful very quiet, relaxing place to stay. Be aware the place is very small only 15 rooms and few diners in the evening so can lack atmosphere if that is what you are looking for. Also no bar and no gym which was a little disappointing for us.

We loved how beautiful the property was. The view out of our room was inspired. And I loved the indoor pool and sauna.

Excellent spot if you’re looking to get away from it all. Grounds and the hotel are emaculate

Great stay, beautiful area in the hills on a large acreage.

The staff were excellent although sometimes difficult to find!!

The accommodations and staff at Vila Valverde are both top shelf.

Lovely 5 star property. Threw a dinner party for friends staying in Luz. Andre was an amazing host, waiter and recommended excellent activities and beaches for us duri g cotials and dinner. Private chef was terrific. Fantastic value for the money. Quiet u derstaed luxuary resort. Highly recommend.

The hotel itself is beautiful, fantastic views, gardens and room etc. However, it is lacking a lot in terms bar/restaurant facilities, there are no options for poolside drinks or snacks and we were encouraged to go out for dinner rather than dine at the hotel. We had booked this for a few nights because it was advertised as a spa hotel but when we asked about the treatments we were recommended to go to the nearby golf and spa resort instead.

Great hotel, we had a fantastic stay although some of the services were limited due to the pandemic, the hotel was fantastic with great connectivity and a great environment, very comfortable bedrooms and deserving of its five-star rating. Only negative- we found the bathroom a bit restrictive and not quite up to standard, specifically the shower and bath.

Very comfortable hotel. Well run, pristine and a level of service provided that is second to none. Highly recommended.

This was an idyllic place to stay in the Algarve The rooms were the one of the best we had ever experienced Despite Covid it was as near to “normal” as we could wish for

All staff were outstanding, exceptionally helpful and offered great service.

A beautiful, sparkling clean secluded zen resort with views of the surrounding landscape. Its a beautiful, secure property with gardens to walk around, outdoor seating areas, indoor pool/sauna and spacious, well-appointed rooms. There is a parking lot but it is a walk from the hotel entrance, up a small hill. The breakfast was adequate with lots to choose from and the staff was helpful. I would highly recommend this resort!

Vila Valverde was exceptional it’s a true sanctuary in the middle of the beautiful Algarve

Very clean, modern,spacious, double door opening onto beautiful garden and peaceful mountain view (room on the ground level) Good aircon Staff excellent. Definitely exclusive as only 12 or so rooms. Breakfast very good but should mention the hot option to new guests as the notice of this is very small.

This place is perfect for anyone that wants a real escape to peace and quiet. It was beautiful, quiet private and tranquil. The staff were all lovely, it was clean and very well kept. The breakfast was plentiful and fresh. We only ate one evening meal which although was nice was very small portions. We will definitely be back when we need to disconnect completely. Recommended room 15 for total privacy, well worth the upgrade cost.

Lovely large bedrooms with fantastic views. Delicious breakfast options . Quiet, private, peaceful location despite being short distance to Luz (not comfortably walkable though) lovely indoor pool with luxurious outdoor pool and outdoor ‘beds’ . Distinct lack of facilities in the room ... had to pay extra for milk to go in the tea they provided in the room (very bizarre) some staff lacked warmth and despite the hotel being beautifully designed it lacks atmosphere, whilst there is a honesty bar there the absence of an actual bar means there is no inclination to sit in the lobby for a drink. I'm sure the food would have been amazing as from breakfast clearly the chef is very talented but chose not to have dinner owingto lack of atmosphere
