Golf & Spa Portugal - Vila Sol Spa and Golf Resort
Introduction
An holistic Spa resort offering exclusive Algarvian treatments
amidst lush botanical gardens and a world-class golf course, the
five-star Vila Sol Spa and Golf Resort has been designed in an
elegant style sympathetic to the beauty of the natural
surroundings. Set within 150 hectares of landscaped grounds and
with a combination of gentle slopes, pine trees and abundant
vegetation it is easy to forget that the hotel is just minutes away
from the rugged coastline of the Atlantic Ocean.
Surrounded by a picturesque lake, the hotel curves in a
contemporary 'S'-shape, designed to mimic the gracious swell of an
Atlantic wave. Harmony with nature is a recurring theme, where the
terracotta hues of the walls match the rich tones of the rocks and
earth, and the large windows reflect the Mediterranean sun as
powerfully as does the lake.
The hotel:
Vila Sol is an ideal choice for couples looking to combine a
pampering experience with a golfing weekend or short break. The
27-hole championship golf course was designed by Donald Steel, and
is based on the world-famous courses at St. Andrews. The course has
played host to two Portuguese Opens. A number of the spa treatments
have been specifically designed to treat ailments induced by
golf,and these can be enjoyed as preparation for a challenging
game, or as a relaxing post-game indulgence.
The Vila Sol Health Spa similarly draws very much on the natural
landscape for inspiration in architectural design and treatment
styles. Therapies harness the beneficial properties of
locally-derived olive, almond and citrus oils, 'Flor de Sal' rock
salt and seaweed, in a traditionally-styled Algarvian house
setting. A warming palette of creams and terracottas completes the
relaxing comfort of the spa.
Mediterranean luxury pervades all areas of the hotel, from the
exquisite calm of guestrooms to the spacious dining and public
areas. The Green Pines restaurant offers a varied choice of
breakfast, lunch and dinner menus, and its tempting panoramic
terrace provides the perfect ambiance for al fresco dining. The
gourmet restaurant 'L'Olive' is located in the main clubhouse
adjacent to the hotel, offering Mediterranean specialties and an
extensive selection of fine wines.
Modernity, clean lines and use of colour inspired by nature is a
constant feature throughout the hotel, and guests will find the
contemporary minimalism sophisticated and refreshing. The Vila Sol
Spa and Golf Resort offers a unique experience in natural,
restorative surroundings, and is a deservedly popular choice for
the discerning guest.
