"Good but steam/sauna chargeable"

8.0

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

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 ."

9.0

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.

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 .
