  2007 was our second visit to mira luz, it was reassuring to see that the exceptional quality of these villas had remained high. the local people are extremely friendly, beaches are clean and have a welcome breeze when it's 45 degrees! - we've fallen in love with the area and will definately be booking for 2008.

  Experience Recommendations:
  Restaurants have limited choice of local dishes but supermarkets offer wonderful selection of fresh produce and are very helpful. we preferred to cook at home on built-in bbq.

  Our vacation was a wonderful experience. we loved the accomodation and the view from the villa was spectacular. the villa was well equipped, clean and the interior was tremendous. the whole experience being in the algarve area and in luz was very memorable for us and would definitely come again to the mira luz villas. the entering and exiting the villa grounds were very efficient and we liked that it was gated. we always felt very safe. the maid service was excellent.one suggestion would be to have a espresso machine in the kitchen included in the appliance package as we really enjoyed having an espresso in restaurants.we felt everything was very possitive but a little improvement would be to have the pool heated. it was so cold that we could rarely use it.with the ocean being so cold it would have been nice to have more use of the pool.all in all it was a great vacation experience and would definitley return to luz and your accomodations. \r\n\r\nthankyou,\r\nlorna and sam bartucci

  Experience Recommendations:
  We ate at several retaurants in luz one very close to the beach and it had a jazz buffet on sundays, it was great right by the sea. lagos was about 5 minutes from luz and it had many many restaurants and bars etc. we visited about 7 or 8 different beaches in the surrounding areas and all were spectacular.

  Our holiday was in december and we knew the weather could be changeable. i think we were probably a bit unlucky because we had a lot of rain. luckily our villa surpassed our expectations and we as a family of nine ages ranging from nine years to sixty had lots of space to entertain ourselves and enjoy our first christmas away from home.

Location

Mira Luz is a small development of villas with its own security entrance which enjoys an elevated position overlooking the village of Luz in the western Algarve.

Luz is a popular fishing port that retains much of its traditional charm but also has a bustling cosmopolitan atmosphere. Its beach, Praia da Luz, is one of the Algarve’s finest with fine, white sands and warm turquoise waters. It is well served by a few beachside cafes and water sports are on offer in summer. Its colourful sandstone cliffs provide beautiful cliff-top walks and at one end are the locally renowned ‘rocha negra’ or black rocks; evidence of ancient volcanic activity.

For those seeking leisure pursuits, the surrounding area has much to offer. The nearest golf course is at the Boa Vista golf resort, which also has tennis courts, football pitches and a luxury health club with gym and spa.

Just a short drive brings you to the historic maritime city of Lagos, 6km away. This relaxed and charming city offers a great selection of restaurants, most of which are found in the pedestrianised main street. Lined with open-air cafes, the main square of Praca da Republica is the best place to indulge in a cool drink and a spot of people watching. There are often lots of street entertainers as well; everything from magicians to clowns and living statues. Proud of its history, Lagos played an important part in the Age of Discovery and Henry the Navigator had his ships built here. It was also home to some of the earliest slave markets. Its rich, long history ensures that there are plenty of buildings and historic sites worth visiting; the governor’s castle and the church of St Sebastian being two of them.

For those with kids (or just big kids), good attractions nearby include…
• Lagos Zoo: set in lovely landscaped gardens with exotic plants, this zoo contains 250 different animals and offers the chance to get close to a variety of species. There is an educational farm, souvenir shop and restaurant. Located between Sao Joao and Bensafrim.
• Slide and Splash: one of Europe’s biggest water parks, it aims to keep you busy for a whole day with is range of plunging and gentle slides, swimming pools and a lazy rubber ring river. Located near Lagoa.
