I LOVE this place! Having visited some of the grandest and nicest hotels all over the world I always want to come back to the Old Village. I like it because it is peaceful, extremely pretty, very safe and you don't feel like you are part of an 'organisation' or a corporate hotel chain because it is all so different.... More

Stayed at 17bc Church Street. It is a 2 bedroom apartment with a flight of steps to front door. There is another flight to the bedrooms and yet another flight to the roof terrace.

Parts of the Algarve can suffer in atmosphere, the golfers and Irish/English ex-pats and their over development, especially around Vilamoura but the Old Village retains a lovely blend of charm, quality and night-life. Its incredible value, and fun little self contained development. Theres a choice of pools, bars and restaurants. Its certainly not a place for gangs of lads on... More

We have stayed in The Old Village, Vilamoura, several times over the past few years. We have stayed in several different properties, depending on the number of us travelling. We have never had a problem. Some of the properties have been renovated and some have not. Last June we stayed in a studio that had not been renovated and the... More
