Colina da Lapa(Colina da Lapa & Villas)

Big site, mostly well run with very nice swimming pools, flora and play areas. Staying in an apartment, very spacious with beds excellent, good TV, fridge /freezer. Ridiculous situation in kitchen with only 1 available plug socket(had to buy a multiply adaptor to be able to use kettle/toaster /microwave. Problem on site on nights and days of March 20th & 21st - group of young lads sharing a villa no:417 playing very loud music and making much noise. Fortunately they disappeared March 22nd. I know other groups were irritated by villa no:417 antics. Management need to assess what clientele they're aiming for. Most guests were elderly of young families - who do not want to share noise and disturbance of young party types. Another noisy group partying (until 4am) on night of may 3rd.

I would recommend the Colina da Lapa Resort and Villas, Sesmarias, Carvoeiro/Ferragudo, Algarve, Portugal. We stayed here in April 2024 on an easyJet Holidays break to the Algarve for a few days. The Colina da Lapa Resort and Villas complex is beautiful, beautiful grounds and beautiful buildings, very clean. The staff are extremely helpful in reception, they are always happy to help you with anything, organising anything for you etc. I cannot fault the apartment we had, the apartment for a 1 bedroom place was huge, a little dated but generally spotlessly clean, immaculate. It had a kitchen, 2 balconies, large bathroom, large living room with fireplace (would be great in winter), great views over Ferragudo and Portimao, plus lovely views of the lovely complex. Perfect if you were staying for a week. The swimming pools were fantastic as were the sunbeds. The accommodation is very quiet which is very nice and not overcrowded etc. It is a shame it is a way out of town of Carvoeiro and a little isolated being in Sesmarias, and away from the big supermarkets near Lagoa unless you have a car in which case it’s perfect. However I would highly recommend also if you wanted somewhere close to eat and reasonable prices, then the Luisa Restaurant is definitely a great place to eat. Also there is a small Sesmarias Supermarket which is reasonable. Generally though it is a lovely clean resort and quiet, beautiful buildings grounds, great staff. Great stay. Would recommend the Colina da Lapa resort and villas. I would also reccommend hiring a car or motorcycle (which can be done and ordered through the resort).

We where 20 friends who had 3 villas. What a beautiful area and peaceful nice, clean and up to date. The villas are wonderful the highlight is the pool area that is amazing. We all enjoyed this place so much that we will go back. After reading some negative comments about Colina we all 20 still dont understand if we have been to the same place. The restaurant and the main pool area and the bar and staff are just wonderful friendly and nice. The staff that look after our villas was just wonderful and friendly . We had 10 days here and we sure want to go back again for longer stays. We all travelled to explore the coast of Algarve and we just loved it. Ferragudo the little town with nice restaurants and bars where good. We had a fantastic time in Colina and we have actually nothing negative to say. The reception staff was great and helpful . Thank you for a great stay! All of us 20 from Norway

The apartment was spacious and very clean fully equipped kitchen beds comfortable maid service excellent with change of linen most days. It was slightly dated. Pool very clean Restaurant excellent shuttle bus good , alot of walking to get to beaches etc nice and peaceful

We stayed there for 4 nights mid September and I have to say it was really great experience. Rooms were very spacious and clean. Kitchen well equipped. Surrounding areas were nice with a very clean pool. Place was really quiet in September which made our stay very relaxing. Reception staff always helpful. It is a great location but you need a car to be able to get to the beach or town. I highly recommend it.
