Euros payment please contact us. AccessibilityVila Verde resort has been built to exacting European standards and therefore exceeds many of the other apartments available in Santa Maria, both in terms of quality and accessibility for those with children and wheelchair users. Not only is the resort level, but access into Santa Maria is along a well maintained, level pathway, with much of Santa Maria now pedestrianized. Ramps and lifts are available to all apartments and doorways are wider to allow for easier access. Shuttle bus service. Two minutes' walk away there is a football pitch and tennis courts. Villa Verde is a new resort and so there are bars, shops, banks and other facilities opening each month. The nearest mini market is 30sec walk away located in the main square of Vila Verde Resort, called ' Falmers' and there are many more shops and supermarkets in Santa Maria. The resort is fully managed and has 24hr CCTV and security patrols at all times to ensure there are no unauthorised visitors. Taxis are available within a 2 minute walk of the apartment from reception and a shuttle bus service runs to Santa Maria & Ponta Preta beach. Guest services located by reception. The beach extends for around 7 miles; you can join it from the Vila Verde resort.Sal's climate averages around 25-30c daytime, with pleasant soothing breezes. Generally no less than 16c in the evenings. The villa is airy, bright and open plan. It has a large open plan kitchen, dining area, and lounge. Welcome food and/or cleaning packs available at additional cost on request. Baby sitting available on request. Baby cots and high chairs available on request. Bike hire and car hire available on site - Santa Maria is very flat and a joy to cycle around. In the event of routine maintenance being carried out in our apartment, you will be accommodated in an identical or upgraded apartment on the Vila Verde complex. This ensures that guests are never inconvenienced by any necessary works. Taxis are inexpensive and plentiful, averaging €3 per trip into Santa Maria town. Car hire most people tend not to choose, as most activity lays South Island Sal. Wi-fi available upon request

Interaction with guest

We normally arrange a taxi for the guest (you pay the driver as normal, usually around €12-15 from the airport each way) the taxi driver will be waiting for you outside the airport arrivals hall with a sign with your name on, he/she will then take you to our property manager who will meet you and show you around the apartment, and will hand over the keys and be on-hand to answer any questions you have. We find this the easiest way as Vila Verde alone has some 1400 apartments and for another driver to find a specific apartment, it can be tricky, plus our driver will also be in contact with our property manager.

    Response from the owner
    Dear Guest, I would like to start by apologising for the inconvenience caused to you on your holiday, from our very first communication I did inform you that our pool was out of use and gave you every opportunity to cancel, but you informed me on two occasions this would not be a problem. The pools are communal and we do not have any control over the up keep and maintenance of them, there was 8 other pools open the dates you traveled. There was a problem with the sofa, it was only cosmetic and did not effect the function or comfort, which again I informed you about as soon as I heard from my property manager, I also sent pictures before your stay, and once again I gave you an opportunity to cancel but again you informed me this would not be a problem (The sofa was taken away the day after your stay and was completely recovered and back in the apartment one week later) Vila Verde can be quite, thats what not only our guests but other holiday makers and other rentals like about it, we believe we have in no way misrepresented our apartment, and do our upmost to give our guests as much information about the apartment and the island as possible, which is sent to all guests that book, and also inform guests as soon as possible about any changes. I also pre-arranged a taxi as requested by you, to pick up your group and take you directly to your apartment, which is a service we offer for all our guests. The taxi driver (who was still waiting for you at the airport), will take you to meet our property manager who will show you to the apartment, the amenities and facilities and give you the keys. We have found this to be the best way as Vila Verde has some 1400 units, unfortunately you decided to hale your own taxi, so that driver had no idea were our apartment was on the resort. We received your email and immediately contacted our managers who promptly met you at reception and took you to the apartment. You did inform me that you would not be staying for the last five days, we thought it only right as you were not happy, to reimburse you, and made a bank transfer for the five days you would not be staying, the day you checked out on the 4th April. Again I am sorry for the unfortunate circumstances you encountered, we believe we offer fantastic value for money, and the property and facilities on offer are in no way misrepresented, we thank you for your feedback, take it onboard, and will try to improve on your comments.
