Vale Do Lobo Resort is situated in a fantastic location, perfect for tennis and golf enthusiasts with plenty of places to visit for eating and drinking. The location of the resort relative to the airport is also great. The beach area is beautiful and the resort itself is embedded inside 3 golfs with direct access to the beach. It's a really lovely area and the reception even drove us down the short drive. While some reviews mentioned the location wasn't great or that everything was far away, the shuttle bus runs 24 hours a day and provides excellent service so there's no need for a car. The resort shuttle service is also excellent, especially since it could be quite far from restaurants etc if you're planning to walk as there are quite a few steep hills. The proximity to the beach is also a major highlight. While some mentioned the location was difficult, the location and space is overall fantastic. Despite a few negative reviews about the resort being isolated, the localização and envolvente are both great and it's optimamente localizado. The resort itself is beautiful with lovely areas like the private pool and the quiet environment.
