Very well kept and beautiful resort
Pros:

Excellent service, truly great people working at VilaLara

Cons:

Too many families with small children. Should be adults only at the main pool, and also separate for breakfast zones

Tolles Hotel, klasse Lage mit schönem Strand und der typischen Felslandschaft am Strand. Mit dem Auto viele High Lights
Pros:

Wundervolle Anlage! Sehr gepflegter Garten, weitläufig, die Gäste verteilen sich gut. Alles tip top gepflegt. Vier Restaurants mit guter Küche teilweise mit gehobenem Anspruch. Service, Sauberkeit alles top!

Cons:

Getränke & Cocktails völlig überteuert! Es lohnt sich außerhalb essen zu gehen. Tolle Restaurants gleicher Qualität 30% günstiger, teilweise mit grandioser Aussicht aufs Meer inklusive Sonnenuntergang. Zimmer sind sauber aber teilweise in die Jahre gekommen. Die Unterkunft ist zwischenzeitlich kein reines Hotel sondern auch eine Ferienanlage mit vermieteten Wohnungen.

Wonderful stay - again!
Pros:

This was our second visit and Vilalara is still as wonderful as last time - the location on top of the cliff with a beautiful beach, the breakfast buffet is excellent, and this time we travelled with friends and enjoyed the padel court and thalasso therapy - both were great!

Traumhafte Wellness Oase Rückzugsort und angenehmer Urlaub inmitten wunderschönem Park am Meer.
Pros:

Das Frühstück ist phänomenal, leckeres frisch gebackenes Brot, regionale Spezialitäten, der Meerblick von der Terrasse einzigartig. Die Zimmer sind gut durchdacht, geschmackvoll und bieten Rückzugsorte. Der Strand ist fussläufig unterhalb des Hotels und nahezu privat, Liegenservice, frische Handtücher bieten besten Comfort. Leider war im Meer dieses mal baden verboten - das hat etwas das traumhafte Erleben getrübt. Es gibt weitere Pools, die aushelfen.

Cons:

Das Meer war leider nicht sauber, baden war an einigen Tagen nicht erlaubt. Sonst gibt es wenig zu bemängeln. Tolle Anlage, sehr angenehm und freundlich.
