Accommodation Details
The development of Varandas do Lago is set in the heart of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve, neighbouring Club do Ancão and Vale do Garrão. Surrounded by beautiful pine forests, the development is within easy reach of the famous golf courses of Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo, close to miles and miles of golden beaches.
Villa ‘Areia Azul’ is a very spacious 4 bedroom, 5 bathroom villa suitable for up to 8 adults – it boasts a fabulous indoor/outdoor living space perfect for two families sharing or several friends enjoying a sunny holiday together. In the garden there is a swing set & climbing frame for the children and poolside there are lots of outdoor sofa’s, sunloungers, dining tables and chairs to totally forget about the ‘real world’ now’s the time to relax and soak up the Algarvean sunshine.
There is a brand new party kitchen with large island unit – perfect for mixing up G&T's at cocktail o’clock, then move on out to the outdoor entertainment area with bbq, IPOD / MP3 dock, shady terraces, grassy garden and a massive heated pool that is 11 metres x 6 metres – you can do proper laps or have a fantastic pool volleyball game in or if that’s too energetic you can just cool off in the outdoor shower and flop out on a sunlounger and read your favourite book.

A friendly and professional service from start to finish
SandyBlue offered a friendly and professional service from start to finish. On arrival it was nice to be met by a helpful and friendly person, not just a phone number, for the duration of our stay. The mini bus was a great help, especially transporting such a large party and the driver a perfect gentleman. All in all we will be back next year.
