This was our first trip to Portugal and I think we struck gold. A few steps from our apt. is the most beautiful and spotless beach we have ever been on.

We have just come back from our annual stay at the Jardim do vau it was as good as ever although we do think it is about time that they upgraded to Duvets instead of blankets! The restaurant is one of the best we have been to on the Algarve the chef should be congratulated.

We've just returned from our third stay at the Jardim do Vau. We stayed for three weeks this year and are already talking about making it four weeks next year. February is a comparatively low-season time of the year to visit, but we had brilliant sun all but one day of our stay. Daytime highs during our stay were in... More
