I stayed in this hotel before. There are no hotels near it, Hotel Spa while excellent was one mile plus, away from hotel. We hired a car and drove into villamoura most evenings for dinner. There was a small bus/van that transported residents into Villamoura, but this wasn't practical if you had kids..usually a queue and a scrum to get on it! Other residents hired taxis in and out of Villamoura. Why not stay in a hotel in Villamoura and get a taxi out to Villa Sol?
