Vale do Lobo Resort

We’ve been coming to VDL for many years, first with our children and latterly with grandchildren. Very disappointing to find the play park next to the Crazy Golf has been replaced by a Sports Bar! Marketing heavily promotes ‘a family resort’ but I guess the Sports Bar brings more profit than an amenity for kids. Our grandson was really sad, where’s the pirate ship gone? Poor decision VDL.

Bring back the 'old' Vale do lobo! I've been coming here for the past 24 years with my partner and we loved it. Since iv now lost him, I've done my 3rd solo trip but, how it's changed. Why did you get rid of Montys?? A big mistake. I then read about The Wolf, thinking that it may be a Montys type of replacement.. but on calling in, they were only serving 5 different types of pizza! That was it! Amore was a great pasta place, which has gone. There used to be a Chinese above Montys... which has gone. The only 2 places remaining are The Beach bar and Sandbanks. All the other restaurants are just overpriced and awful. Even The Yard, that used to do pizza takeout...very handy if you're on your own.. no longer do pizzas! Iknow places have to change, but normally for the better. It's no longer the same and very disappointing.....and Spikes, we used to love going there, but what's with the barrier/ desk thing when you walk in. 🤷‍♀️ hardly welcoming and although ihad a meal, I just felt very uncomfortable. Such a shame

The whole resort was perfect for our trip. The facilities are fantastic, courses were in great condition, and the beach club was a perfect place to relax after golf. The staff at Spikes restaurant took great care of us and made us feel very welcome. A special thank you to Valentina who made the whole experience very special and to Tim who make the best Disaronno Sour, as he will tell you. I would not hesitate to go back again.
