We spent three months this winter at Villa Julia. The villa is lovingly decorated and very comfortable for a short or extended stay. The gardens are carefully maintained and have been created to provide (almost complete) privacy. One adjacent house has upper windows which overlook portions of the pool, but we never saw anyone there. Unlike most villas we have rented, the pool will actually heat up to a comfortable temperature, but it in the winter it took close to 5 days. The primary suite is spacious and very quiet, even when we filled the house with guests. Guests in all 4 bedrooms commented on the comfort of the beds and how well they slept. We had up to 7 people at one time and there was plenty of space and furnishings for everyone, both indoors and out. The kitchen provides everything you could need. Luz is a lovely village, 10 minutes from the bigger city of Lagos, but more charming with a spectacular waterfront, a variety of good restaurants, gorgeous cliff hikes, good grocery stores, a spa, dental and medical facilities; all walking distance from the villa (although it is a 1 mile uphill climb to get back home!). Of course, friendly people: it is Portugal! The best thing about our stay was the owner, Jan. She and her staff went out of their way to ensure everything was perfect. I felt that we became friends over the course of our emailed conversations regarding the rental.
From the minute we arrived, we knew this was a brilliant villa!! The views from the top terrace, with an abundance of different seating areas to admire it from, to the layout of the pool area - it was just perfect! The villa itself was immaculate. Everything you need is there. The kitchen has two large fridges (with one side being a freezer). We admittedly made use of both - one for chilling the wines and beers perfectly. The bedrooms are all a great size - ensuites in two of them and a large family bathroom. We made used of the wonderful master suite on the gound floor, which was just amazing. Isabel, the housekeeper, discreetly visited the house 3 times a week, and what a credit she is! The pool, which we had heated, was well utilised by all 6 of us. So clean and well kept. Plenty pool/beech towels too. The BBQ areabmade for a great day when we invited friends over, who live in the Algarve - they too, thought the villa was incredible. Only a 15 mins walk into Luz itself, with an array of restaurants - we particularly liked Paulo's. 15 minute drive to Lagos and less to the likes of beautiful Burgau (which is a must to visit), as well as some of the other small villages. Spoiled for beaches here - we did prefer Burgau but Praia da Luz was certainly popular with visitors. We have visited the Western Algarve a number of times over the years, this being our first trip to Luz, and by all accounts, this villa has been the best yet!! Everything we needed! Everything we wanted and more. We would love to stay here again and can't recommend it highly enough.
There isn’t a single fault with this Villa Everything you could wish for is included down to the finest details to make your stay memorable
