Luz Do Sol - Wheelchair friendly holiday villa Algarve - R. das oliveiras

My family has just had a wonderful 2-week holiday in Casa Luz do Sol. We would totally agree with the comprehensive review posted earlier by Charlotte Player. The villa is spacious, with a view across the hills to the sea, and the garden and terraces offer both sun or shade. Apart from the well-equipped bedroom and bathroom for a wheelchair user, mobility highlights would be the ramps, pool lift and particularly the use of a WAV. Caroline was welcoming, friendly and provided good guidance on accessibility in the area. Although we didn’t need further support, we found it reassuring that should a medical issue occur she would be there to help and translate for us. We didn’t want to leave and look forward to returning!!!

I love this place!! I have just returned home from staying here and what an amazing time I had, I would highly recommend this villa! I am a repeat visitor to Luz do Sol and always get excited about coming back, this place is truly lovely and the amenities make our stay even better. Caroline goes above and beyond to make our stay the best for us, making sure we always have everything we need even before we arrive. She is always available if you need her or have any questions. The area is lovely and there is so much to do, every time we go back there are still things to explore which we haven't had chance to see. When my stay comes to an end I never want to leave and this is down to Caroline and her great hospitality. I would highly recommend Luz Do Sol and I already look forward to returning!

Excellent stay at Luz do Sol! Caroline was a great hostess and very helpful, the house is kept very well with beautiful scenes. Airport transfer went very smoothly.. when we arrived at the villa we had the use of wheel chair accessible car throughout our stay which made it very easy to explore the nearby beaches. Will defiantly be making a return.

we had a fab two weeks at Luz do Sol. From start to finish Caroline was helpful, and a great host. The house suited us well as my hubbie is in a manual wheelchair and the pool was just wonderful. We both swam every day and it was a great temperature. The location is quiet and peaceful but there are lots of good restaurants within 10 minutes drive. The transfer from the airport was arranged by Caroline and is only a 20 minute ride . The house was clean and tidy when we arrived and was exactly as shown on the website. The view from the garden over to Villamoura is quite exceptional.

We've just returned from a one week break at the villa, along with my husband three children and parents, we had the most relaxing week. The villa it's self met all Tommy's needs as he's a permanent wheel chair user. He was able to navigate the whole villa and get in the pool to cool down, we used the car we was given at ease and after a short journey became very comfortable and confident driving. The villa hosts a really traditional vibe and Portuguese decor. I'm sure we will be back to stay at the villa again. Caroline went above and beyond to help us settle and answer any questions we had x

We spent a week here with family in October 2018. The villa is fully accessible for wheelchair users. It is in a beautiful quiet setting in the hills and not far (a short drive) from amenities in Almancil. There are plenty of good restaurants if you want to eat out or excellent cooking facilities in the villa if you want to stay in. The villa is clean and tidy and there are plenty of towels. The pool is lovely and even has a hoist for disabled visitors if required. The owner, Caroline, is extremely helpful and welcoming and always available should you require any assistance or help during your stay. Having the Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle is a real bonus and we were able to get out and about very easily. The weather was a very pleasant mid-twenties and perfect at this time of year. I can recommend this as a perfect location and villa to stay and hopefully we will be able to return again in the future. As soon as we got back last year from our first stay at Luz Do Sol, I couldn’t wait to book again. I totally fell in love with this beautiful villa and it’s location. So much so, that we have booked to return in 2020. My partner, who is in a wheelchair, and I, are thinking about getting married here in this lovely setting next year. Caroline, the owner of the villa, is an absolutely amazing host and nothing is too much for her to sort. She made our first stay so enjoyable and I can’t wait to return. All my previous photos and comments stand as totally genuine.

We have just returned from an amazing 2 week stay in the Luz Do Sol villa in Portugal. We travelled from Scotland to Portugal adhering to all Covid testing and isolation on our return. We had no problems at all. Everything went smoothly at the airport and all documentation checked. We felt very safe travelling and during our stay in Portugal. If anything we felt safer over there as everyone adheres the social distancing and mask wearing. Caroline guided us and booked our Covid tests before we returned to Scotland and was absolutely amazing help prior to arriving in Portugal and during our stay. The Villa is perfect. Great facilities for my husband who is in a wheelchair. He even went in the pool a few times which he loved. The pool was lovely and warm and perfect for our children. The WAV vehicle was perfect and a great way to get around and see Portugal at leisure. Caroline was the most helpful host and we couldn't have wished for more. She lives close but never bothers you unless you need her. My husband had a urine infection during our stay and Caroline helped us to get to the hospital which took the stress out of everything. The villa is very well equipped with everything we needed. We will definitely be back. Thanks Caroline xx

My partner and I have just returned from a wonderful week at Luz do Sol. We’d like to thank Caroline for not just her warm welcome but for providing such a thoughtfully planned villa. Places like hers are so hard to find and our party of five whose youngest is a wheelchair user, was able to enjoy a truly wonderful holiday. Our only regret? We didn’t stay two weeks Ruth & Dan
