Superb self catering villa resort. Location literally at the heart of Quinto do Lago. The villas are spotless, everything works, fantastic bathrooms, quiet and safe. It is quite frankly the best place I looked at in QdL for a central point to play golf in the Algarve. Staff is outstanding! I was so busy playing golf I didn’t use the fantastic pool, but what a treat for a winter-worn Canadian in late February. I loved it!!!
