Hotel Residence Golf Club by Garvetur (Vilamoura, Portugal)
About Residence Golf Club by Garvetur
Located in close proximity to at least three golf courses, Residence Golf Club by Garvetur offers contemporary self-catering accommodation in a large complex that boasts an outdoor swimming pool.
The one and two-bedroom apartments here feature spacious layouts and all the amenities required for an independent stay. These include a fully equipped kitchen, private balcony, living area with TV, and en-suite facilities.
Staff at this property can assist with both car and bike rentals, as well as as other services such as laundry.
Guests not keen to slave over a hot stove while on holiday can forgo the included kitchens and head out to dine. A five-minute drive away, Bistro Oásis 24H offers simple fare whatever the hour, but truly comes alive late at night.
Those looking for a more family-friendly activity than golf can head to Aquashow Park, a nine-kilometre journey from Residence Golf Club by Garvetur. Those whose fancy runs more towards surf and sand will find gorgeous Praia da Falésia a 15 minute drive away.
The hotel is described as uniquely modern among Vilamoura properties. While modern design is never to absolutely everyone's taste, it seems that the vast majority really liked it. They felt like they were in very chic and trendy surroundings.
positive:
Surprisingly spacious
Guests were clearly pleasantly surprised by the size of their apartments. They were described as being more than big enough for the size of the group booking in, and the extra space gave the guests a real sense of luxury.
positive:
Many rooms with nice views
While not all the rooms faced the golf course, those allocated to rooms that did really seemed to appreciate the views. Many had booked in so that they would be conveniently close to the golf, and were very happy that they got a great view of the course right from their room window.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Somewhat poorly maintained
A couple of recent reviews mentioned that the apartments were not being very well-maintained. It was not a widespread complaint, so it was difficult to determine whether it is a problem specific to one or two apartments or a more general issue.
negative:
A bit too remote for some
A couple of guests mentioned that they would have felt a bit isolated had they not had a car. They mentioned that there wasn't all that much of interest within walking distance, and that public transport was some way away as well.
negative:
Poor communication
It was mentioned that the staff were not the best at communicating in the run up to the holiday, with guests really having to push hard in order to get replies to questions or concerns.
