The Vilalara Thalassa is famed for its excellent thalassotherapy spa and the fact that it was one of the original 5 star resorts on the Algarve. It is securely located in gated private gardens  and has access to a beautiful golden beach.

Five lovely pools (one heated), three tennis courts, the famed spa and privacy guaranteed make this resort one of the most sought after properties on the Algarve. The gardens are a delight and run right down to the beautiful beach.

The rooms are comfortable and spacious with balcony or terrace and the higher rooms have gorgeous sea views. There are also two and three bedroom apartments  with sea views and are located with easy access to the beach.

The B&G restaurant offers anna la carte Portuguest menu with a twist under the direction of chef Pedro Sequeira and the Terrace Grill in freshly cooked fish, all types of sea food and barbeques. Both restaurants have lovely sea views.

Another plus is that it’s only a 30 minute transfer from the airport.
