Villa 3 Caparica, Lisbon Gay Beach Hotel

****The following is an update to our "June 2023*Couples" review from 'ThomasSitges'. In that review, we gave Villa 3 Caparica a glowing 5 Stars. It's now 15 months later, and we are pleased to say that Villa 3 has maintained the very high standards that we appreciated over a year ago! Our overall continued impression of the Villa 3 experience is one that is consistent and exceptional, exceeding our expectations. The entire complex at Villa 3 is very well maintained, as if everything within has been recently groomed, trimmed, repainted, refurbished or replaced. The resort rooms at Villa 3 remain immaculately clean, and furnished with sturdy beds, comfortable mattresses and fresh linens that feel new. The entire team at Villa 3 continue to be welcoming, courteous, and respectful with all of their guests. There is a very friendly vibe at Villa 3. Expect to make new friends from their varied clientele of cuddly and playful men representing all different ages, shapes, sizes and colors. Will we return in the very near future to Villa 3? Absolutely! Why? Villa 3 Caparica has built a solid reputation whereby its guests can expect a consistent and exceptional experience.

The following may sound silly, but please "bear" with us and continue reading. We previously lived in California for over 20 years, and like most Californians, we went to Disneyland annually. Each visit to Disneyland was consistent and exceptional. The same is true with Villa 3. Both Disneyland and Villa 3 are well maintained. Both venues are very well maintained, as if everything within has been recently groomed, trimmed, repainted, refurbished or replaced. The resort rooms at both Disneyland and Villa 3 are immaculately clean, and furnished with sturdy beds, comfortable mattresses and fresh linens that feel new. Finally, the entire staff at both Disneyland and Villa 3 are courteous, respectful, and treat you like family. Disneyland has a solid reputation that its guests can expect a consistent and exceptional experience, and the same is also true with Villa 3 Caparica. ...and just like the many furry and playful bears at Disneyland's "Country Bear Jamboree" attraction, the cuddly guests at Villa 3 also come in all different ages, shapes, sizes and colors. But unlike Disneyland, Villa 3 is only for adults. Would we possibly ever return some day to Disneyland? Yes. Will we return in the very near future to Villa 3 Caparica? Absolutely!

Rarely in my life have I ever experienced such complete hospitality as I did staying here. I mean, unless I was in the home of a longtime friend or relative. I have struggled with finding the words to describe the actual experience. I am not sure the superlatives I identified will do Villa 3 justice. I fear I will fail in communicating how truly wonderful Villa 3 is and what a special experience it was for me to spend 6 nights. First off, 3 of the owners/hosts live on the property. This means they pay attention every minute of every day to the needs of their guests, making sure the staff is up to standards (which they are of course), making sure the property is spotless and in good order and repair (and it is). The property itself excels both in the design and execution. I was a little nervous about all the positive reviews posted here, but now there is no doubt in my mind that they were all well deserved. All the staff and hosts are terrific people and they treated more like family rather than a paying client. I just can't get over how great the whole experience was...

This resort has incredible facilities. The food was delicious, the rooms are very spacious and the entire villa was spotless. However, the best part was the hosts and staff! Big thx to Fernando, Eddy and Marcos. Partner and I loved our stay.

A Special Experience, we were looking forward to returning to Villa 3 and we were not disappointed. The owners and staff are the heart and soul of this establishment and there is nothing that they won't do for you to ensure you are happy and enjoying your time there. The villa is immaculate and the cleaning staff are always working. Breakfast is ample and the coffee and orange juice are excellent. The rooms and facilities are first class and it's brilliant to have the jacuzzi, steam and sauna onsite. There is a good mix of people visiting lisbon and relaxing in the villa and the beaches are nearby. Ubers are quick in response and reasonable. Local restaurants are plentiful and you don't need to into lisbon for a good meal. Snacks and sandwiches are onsite. Thanks from us to everyone especially Paulo, the cleaning staff and our hosts Eddie, Fernando and Marcus. See you all again soon.
