Relaxing

Relaxed days are spent around the pool or on the fabulous beach - perhaps the most secluded beach in Portugal - with a host of activities to keep everyone occupied. A great choice for an active holiday, complimentary activities include; a 9 hole pitch and put course, 18 hole putting green, 18 hole mini-golf course, table tennis and soccer. At an additional cost, tennis lessons, tennis courts, bicycle rental, yoga and Pilates classes are available and between July-September, horse-riding, surfing, deep-sea fishing and dive trips. Driving an hour away, discover the resort’s Herdade dos Grous vineyard or book a half or full day excursion aboard the hotel’s private 72-foot long yacht. The Algarve is quite simply a golf lover’s paradise and there is a multitude of courses to play at nearby.

A walk along the winding path of the sub-tropical park will lead you to the door of the Vila Vita Vital Spa and into a world of pampered indulgence. Fragrant steam and algae baths, classic and Far Eastern massages, as well as extensive offerings of high-quality beauty care, guarantee an experience for all of the senses.

We recommend a milk and honey bath for the ultimate in indulgence, with aromatherapy massages and mud treatments also a divine experience.

Dining

Dining is always a highlight, with ten amazing restaurants. Fine dining can be enjoyed at the two Michelin-starred Ocean or the sumptuous Aladin Grill with the accompaniment from a choice of 11,000 bottles from the vast wine cellar! More relaxed evening meals can be enjoyed at Whale or the Bela Vita; the resort's more informal family restaurants.
