Just returned from a weeks holiday, with husband and 2 sons (11 and 15). Sad to leave! Admittedly apartments were basic but on the plus side they were spacious and very clean. Usually stay at Praia Da Rocha, but over the years found too noisy for family holiday. So the location of these apartments are ideal. The reception and bar... more

We went as a family of 5 - kids aged 14,13 and 9. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The appartments were HUGE and we had an unoverlooked shady balcony. The food from the bar was delicious and good value and we had takeaways a couple of times. The free airconditioning was fantastic as the temperature was over 30'oC... more

we have just returned from Terracos do vau and had the most marvellous time ever! Thomson rep/children's reps were superb and so approachable and caring. The apartments were immaculate and well looked after although with only basic furnishings, admittedly. The atmosphere created by the helpful staff and the relaxed surroundings made this a really special holiday for my family. The... more

We stayed here for 1 week. Thought, after reading other reviews, that we`d booked a great holiday. How wrong could i have been. The 1st apartment was awful. It took 45mins to boil a cup of coffee.

Although the bar is small it is perfect, the staff were wonderful especially wiht my two children aged 7 & 4. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff or for Katy the Thomson rep. The beach is about 5 minutes walk downhill and is well worth a visit and although the resort is small there are two supermarkets and... more

Just returned from a fabulous holiday. The weather was scorching (in 90s on 2 days). The hotel staff were all very friendly. The bar drinks and food were reasonably priced although there were many bars locally who did a pint of beer for 1 EURO. It is very easy to find a decent three course meal with wine for 15... more

Me and my family stayed at the Terracos do Vau for 1 week from 28 August to 4 September 2008. We had an absolutely brilliant holiday and I would definately recommend these apartments to families with young children. We had booked a 2 bedroom apartment and were allocated room number 005 on the ground floor, in the main building. The... more
