Perfect for a relaxing family holiday
We loved the house, and the outdoor spaces were definitely the highlight of our trip. The private pool and the lovely garden created a wonderful atmosphere for relaxing in the sunshine, and the outdoor barbecue area was ideal for our family dinners. Inside, the kitchen is fully equipped and very practical, and having an extra cloakroom near the lounge was highly convenient. It truly is a peaceful haven close to everything you need.

A beautiful retreat in the Golden Triangle!
We loved the house, and the outdoor spaces were absolutely stunning. The villa is incredibly spacious, beautifully laid out, and having four of the bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms provided brilliant comfort and privacy for our entire group. The garden and private pool area are lovely and well-maintained, and we spent most of our days relaxing there and making full use of the outdoor dining and barbecue area. The location is perfect—peaceful and private, yet just a short drive from top beaches and world-class golf courses.
A great villa in a great location. The set up of the villa is perfect and is well equipped. The outside is great and well laid out - sun on the pool throughout the day.We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend - will definitely book again

Absolutely stunning villa and beautiful gardens!
We had an exceptional stay at Villa Savannah. The house is incredibly spacious and beautifully laid out, making it perfect for our group. With all five bedrooms having their own en-suite bathrooms, everyone enjoyed total privacy and comfort. The living area is bright and connects seamlessly to the lovely pool and well-kept garden. The location in the Golden Triangle is superb—peaceful and private, yet just a short drive from fantastic beaches, golf courses, and local amenities.

Perfect for families! Great outdoor space and comfort!!
Villa Savannah was the ideal spot for our family holiday. The bedrooms were all very comfortable, and having so many en-suites made everything easier with a large group. The pool and barbecue area were where we spent most of our time, and the kids loved the garden. The location couldn ’t be better, quiet, but just minutes from Vale do Lobo and the beach. A great base to enjoy the Algarve!

Spacious and peaceful retreat in a top location
We had an amazing time at Villa Savannah! The house is very spacious, well-maintained, and perfect for a big family or group of friends. We especially loved the outdoor area, the pool was great, and the garden was beautifully kept. The location is very peaceful, yet close to everything: beaches, restaurants, and supermarkets. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the living area was super comfortable. We’ll definitely come back!
Lovely stay, everything you could want at this villa for a large group of friends or family. Four big double bedded rooms and another large room with 4 single beds, accommodated our family perfectly. One little tip for people staying here, use Uber taxis, when you book em, they are there within minutes and are cheap! Would deffo go to this villa again.
A lovely property with great pool and well equiped kitchen . Was spotless with flexible accomodation wifi and tv worked well important for youngest tractor obsessed member of group.
some issues
Terrace tiles very slippery when wet
No welcome pack in house on arrival no basic cleaning products supplied , suprised at this given standard of accomodation
Overall a great stay.

Idyllic stay in a perfect Algarve location
We had a fantastic holiday at Villa Savannah — it truly exceeded our expectations in every way. The house is located in the heart of the Golden Triangle, a peaceful and upscale area that’s just a short drive from stunning beaches, golf courses, and great restaurants. The villa itself is spacious, clean, and very well equipped. We stayed as a group of friends with children, and the layout worked perfectly, the five bedrooms are all comfortable, and most have direct access to the garden or balconies with lovely views.
The outdoor space was definitely one of the highlights. The pool is large, and we chose to have it heated, a great decision as it made morning and evening swims extra enjoyable. The kids loved playing in the garden, while we relaxed by the water feature or had long meals on the shaded terrace. The barbecue area was perfect for grilling in the evenings, and the kitchen inside had everything we needed to prepare meals when we didn't feel like going out.
The villa is beautifully maintained and in a quiet area, but close to everything, beaches like Praia do Ancão and Vale do Lobo are just minutes away, and there are several supermarkets and restaurants nearby. Whether you're looking for a peaceful getaway or a base to explore the Algarve, Villa Savannah is an excellent choice. We’ll definitely be back!
The villa would have been very nice 20 years ago, but there were so many problems and some frankly dangerous failures.
1) Smoke alarm batteries not replaced. I had to climb up a precarious ladder in the middle of the night to reset this because it was beeping incessantly
2) Loose floor boards that tripped people up.
3) Blinds missing. Try putting a toddler to sleep without them
4) Lights failed in one of the bathrooms
5) Hot water periodically not working on the upper floor
6) Waterfall not switched on - despite being shown in pictures
7) Ice maker not working
8) One of the showerheads failed (albeit they did come and replace this)
Add to that the beds were incredibly uncomfortable with old, hard mattresses.
This is not the comfortable villa you see in the pictures. And do not expect a partial refund if you raise this with the villa company. Be warned!
