Approach
Villa Emily is set amongst the pines, blossoming almond, fig, palm and olive trees of the Boa Vista golf resort. The resort has gleaming white villas set in leafy gardens, with spectacular views of the fairways and coast. There is a driveway with parking space behind the villa.
Ground Floor
Villa Emily is beautifully decorated, with smooth wooden floors and high-quality furnishings throughout. The front door opens to an entrance hall, and through elegant double doors to the split-level living and dining room. The dining area is light and airy, with a solid wooden dining table to seat eight and French windows that open to the terrace and let in plenty of natural light. On the right is the staircase that leads to the first floor.
From here, steps lead down to the inviting living area. Comfortable sofas, oriental rugs and well-placed lamps add homely touches to this cosy room. You will also find a CD stereo, satellite TV, a DVD player and VCR, ideal for restful moments indoors.
The country pine kitchen is connected to the living room by a wide archway. Spacious and fully-equipped, the kitchen has a hob, oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and breakfast bar.
A double bedroom and a twin bedroom are located along a separate corridor. Both are comfortably furnished, and have doors to the pool terrace. Beside them are a separate full bathroom and a shower room.
First Floor
Upstairs is the spacious master double bedroom. This lovely bedroom has its own living area with a sofa and TV, and an en suite bathroom. French windows open onto a private balcony terrace that overlooks the pool area and offers fantastic views of the resort. Peacefully sipping coffee on the balcony and taking in the view is a perfect way to start
Our villa, 'Rosa Emelia' was exactly as described on the Villas to Go website. The agency staff on the resort were extremely helpful and the accommodation was first class. The Boa Vista resort was lovely. Good facilities and very friendly staff
Easy access to the towns of Lagos and Luz - both very different. Close to the main motoroway running from Faro along the length of the Algarve - so nothing was very difficult to get to. You do need a car though if you stay in the Boa Vista resort.
