NEW FOR 2026


Set in a peaceful cul-de-sac and surrounded by lovely, landscaped gardens, Villa Rosa feels pleasantly tucked away, yet this is in fact a prime location, enviably close to the beach and the Praça, Vale do Lobo’s popular social hub. What strikes you most throughout the villa and the grounds is a fantastic sense of space, ideal for an extended family party or a group of friends, with everything within walking distance so everyone can plan out their own perfect day.

NEW FOR 2026


Set in a peaceful cul-de-sac and surrounded by lovely, landscaped gardens, Villa Rosa feels pleasantly tucked away, yet this is in fact a prime location, enviably close to the beach and the Praça, Vale do Lobo’s popular social hub. What strikes you most throughout the villa and the grounds is a fantastic sense of space, ideal for an extended family party or a group of friends, with everything within walking distance so everyone can plan out their own perfect day.

The villa sits right in the middle of its own fully-enclosed grounds, giving two distinct outdoor areas to enjoy. On one side there’s a sparkling 13m pool and terrace, which can be gated for extra peace of mind if you’re travelling with children. On the other side, there’s a second covered terrace for leisurely dining or relaxing in the shade, plus big grassy lawns for younger ones to play on. The big central living/dining area has access to both sides, making for a lovely light-filled space, complemented by four bedrooms, each with their own bath or shower room. 

The position of Rosa Vale do Lobo makes it both private and tranquil, but it’s only a 10–15 minute walk from the door to the beach and the lively Praça, where you’ll find shops, bars and restaurants. It’s an ideal spot for enjoying all the benefits and services of resort life, yet maintaining your own privacy and schedule to enjoy exactly how and when you please.

Algarve holidays promise a wealth of different experiences and landscapes, whether you choose a private villa or a hotel as your base.

Portugal’s most southerly region boasts an iconic and instantly recognisable coastline of fine sandy beaches backed by ochre-yellow cliffs, sea stacks and rock archways that stand testament to the power of nature. Inland, there are rolling hills dotted with citrus and olive groves, plus crumbling castles, mountain villages and walking paths to explore. The Algarve is unique in enjoying an Atlantic coast with a Mediterranean climate, attracting not just holidaymakers but also a wide variety of birdlife that flocks to the Ria Formosa Natural Park.

And despite its long term popularity as a villa holiday destination, the Algarve has retained pockets of real character in its old towns and regional capital Faro, where you can still eat well relatively inexpensively. Portuguese cuisine is in our view one of the most underrated in Europe, so prepare to be deliciously surprised by fresh fish, hearty stews, sweet pastries and of course, world-renowned wines: saúde!

Customer testimonials

Rosa Vale do Lobo is perfect for us in every way, apart from adding another bedroom so it could accommodate our growing family (!) We honestly can’t think of anything that would improve it. It’s all in amazing condition, clean, comfortable and with the gorgeous heated swimming pool and outdoor seating areas, it’s perfect!

Mrs Alexander, via Affinity Villas August 2025

Rosa Vale do Lobo was perfect for my family including a 2yr old granddaughter. Fully equipped to a very high standard. The huge pool and gardens were beautiful. Perfect location for the tennis courts too.

Ms Butterwick, via Affinity Villas August 2025

Our second visit to the excellent Rosa Vale do Lobo. We enjoyed our stay as much as the first time and will be booking again.

Mrs Plaw, via Affinity Villas June 2025

This is an excellent villa in a great location. It is well appointed and beautifully presented, with a large pool and substantial, private gardens. We had a first class family holiday for six adults, two children and a baby. Highly recommended!

Mr Gorton, via Affinity Villas April 2025

A superb villa both in terms of facilities and location. The outside areas were fantastic, allowing for several areas to eat and relax in on all sides of the house. The pool is a great size. Would thoroughly recommend the property.

Mr Danielli, via Affinity Villas August 2024

We were a family party of 9 with 6 adults, 2 young children and a toddler. The villa was excellent for our needs. It was extremely comfortable and plenty of safe space for the children both inside and outside the villa. We had hours of fun in the pool and the outdoor tables were big enough for us to all eat together as well as being shaded. We had a really enjoyable week.

Mrs Ellis, via Affinity Villas August 2024

Our second holiday at Villa Rosa, a fabulous week, the new bathrooms are lovely, the dual aspect of poolside/shaded outdoor seating/BBQ is just fabulous for families. We will be back!

Mrs Adams, via Affinity Villas June 2024

Excellent villa with superb swimming pool in a great location in Vale Do Lobo. The service provided by house management, including the maid was superb.

Mrs Plaw, via Affinity Villas April 2024

Another fabulous stay at Rosa Vale do Lobo, the house is beautifully designed, so we don’t feel on top of one another (imperative with multi generation family hols!). The pool was perfect, and the children spent hours on end in there since it was so warm, the house is so well equipped, and everyone had an extremely happy holiday.

Mrs Alexander, via Affinity Villas August 2023

It was our first experience of Vale do Lobo, and Villa life and it didn't let us down. Tranquil surroundings, fantastic location, great outdoor space with an amazing pool. We will definitely book this Villa again in the future.

Mr Minnes, via Affinity Villas August 2023

Beautifully appointed, very well equipped. Fabulous pool, great for a family holiday in good location for the Praca and in a peaceful cul de sac.

Mrs Adams, via Affinity Villas June 2023

Excellent location. Gardens, patio areas and pool delightful.

Mrs Fullbrook, via Affinity Villas March 2023

The most perfect home from home, Rosa Vale do Lobo is beautifully appointed for 2-3 families and set in the most gorgeous garden which feels incredibly private despite being brilliantly positioned in the centre of Vale do Lobo. We’re all extremely keen to revisit next year!
