"Perfection in this place’s simplicity. It was an idyllic vacation spot. Walking distance to the village but removed enough to be ultra peaceful. The free parking, pool and breakfast were all a huge plus. We were surprised how close we were to the boardwalk walking trails and really cool cave hikes. Sunsets galore and wonderful restaurants and shops near by. Loved it!"

Mirachoro Carvoeiro

8/10 Good
"Second visit, but not as good as the first. Staff remain fabulous ( perhaps the odd grumpy face at breakfast) but the majority just can’t do enough for you. The pool area had the most awful music (quite loud bass beat) bashing out for the first 3 days, which ruined it for us. The average age of the hotel guests is probably 60-80 years, so many people were not happy. Pool side very busy towards the end of the week, unlike last time, but apparently there is a music festival on this weekend ( Oct 3rd) so try to miss these dates if you want peace and quiet. The location is perfect if you want to wander down to the town or out to the restaurants. Very clean. No hot drinks in the room, which I missed in the mornings. We may revisit, but not for a few years."

"We have just returned from an excellent stay at Placid Village, and we cannot recommend highly enough. It's very quiet and peaceful, spotlessly clean and the staff were exceptionally attentive and thoughtful. If you are looking for a quiet, idyllic break in a beautiful part of the Algarve look no further. We look forward to returning."

Lovely and deep at the deep end .plenty of floats for the children.
