Amazing
Pros:

Это мой любимый отель в Португалии, красиво, потрясающий сад, и прекрасные виды, море великолепное. Нам шли на встречу во всех пожеланиях, что не может не радовать

Cons:

При парковке автомобиля нам сбили настройки сидения и это было очень неприятно, возможно нам пытались зарядить автомобиль и поэтому листали бортовой компьютер, но автомобиль мы получили в измененном состоянии и это было не приятно. Персонал забывчив и сух, но, возможно, это наплыв туристов

Cons:

- Matratze bei den Liegen sollten langsam ausgetauscht werden.
- Zugang SPA (Sauna, etc.) ist nicht inbegriffen, was schade ist

Good but steam/sauna chargeable
Pros:

This property has the best gardens, no competition! Absolutely beautiful. Also, the staff, especially the Indian staff (Kumar and Santosh) were really amazing.

Cons:

Only one thing: they charge for using steam/sauna. This seems a bit a bit surprising, for a 5 star resort that charges $600/room. That's one reason why we will go with Vila vita next time, as they don't charge for steam and sauna, which we like to take daily.

Stunning Algarve holiday at Vilalara .
Pros:

amazing beautiful property, very well maintained and the 2 bed room ocean facing apartment was stunning, staff went out of the way to make us feel comfortable and important . Special thanks to all the golf cart/buggy drivers who were always available at short notice, also special word of thanks for Harman at the Italian restaurant , she was very nice and helpful and knew all about the best dishes to order . The breakfast was superb too on all days and we tried most of the restaurants there and food was delicious everywhere . The view from our apartment as well as from so many other places in the resort was Magnificent.

Cons:

If I really have to be picky could say the wifi was bit weak at some places in the resort, and the fact that all the restaurants in the resort are a bit on the expensive side .
