For context, we stayed at this hotel as part of our honeymoon in Portugal. The positives are obvious when you look at pictures of the property. There is a stellar beach with a private area within a 2-minute walk from the hotel, the property's design is very nice, and the Algarve is beautiful no matter where you go. The reality is this hotel is designed for families with kids. If you are looking for a family vacation, this is a great hotel choice for you. There was an absurd amount of kids everywhere, and they definitely cater to that crowd. The pools, the kids club, even the restaurants are designed to keep kids and families entertained and happy. It felt more like a summer camp than a luxury hotel. And the price is definitely more like a luxury hotel. I don't feel like you get what you pay for at this hotel.

The staff was not very helpful or especially friendly at any of the restaurants or facilities. The food at the restaurants was mediocre but priced at a premium. The property is nice with a great location, but its definitly showing its age in many places.

Overall, I would recommend this hotel for the design, convenience, and wonderful beach. But I do not feel like it is worth the price due to the food, service, and summer camp vibes.

The Vilalara Grand Hotel was absolutely incredible! It is in the most beautiful area of the Algarve and close enough to tons of great towns in the Algarve. The property was immaculate and the staff was incredibly helpful. We highly recommend staying here for an extended stay to enjoy all the amenities this hotel has to offer!

Vilalara Grand Hotel Algarve was one of our favorite hotels we've stayed at. The hotel was very clean and the staff were so kind in all ways. It was my husbands birthday on the stay and they surprised him with champagne and dessert. Truly incredible service and beautiful place to stay while you are on vacation in Algarve.

Lovely hotel with beautiful views and direct access to the beach. The restaurants serve delicious food and the restaurant staff are very nice and attentive. We were disappointed that WIFI is sketchy across the resort, Room Service was difficult to reach and its petty to charge 5 euros to have a bucket of ice delivered!

This was the best hotel we have ever stayed at in Europe. The grounds were beautiful, the whole atmosphere was so relaxing and peaceful. We could always find a sun lounger and whilst the food was priced on the higher end for Portugal we didn’t eat a bad meal. We cannot wait to come back already!

What an extraordinary resort! From the moment we checked in, the staff was friendly and very helpful. We stayed on the 4th floor with an ocean view. The balcony is very private with not only an ocean view but also of the town closest by that outlines the beach shore. The grounds are spectacular! If you are looking for a romantic place to meander amongst secret gardens, secluded beach, lounge near several pools and couples cabanas with impeccable service, beautiful grounds that are manicured and feel like a tropical paradise, this is the place!

The property is expansive, beautiful and well maintained. We were warmly greeted at reception and granted early check in. We were given a tour of the property via a golf cart then deposited at our lovely Elegant Suite. So far so good. One of the primary reasons we booked Vilalara is because of they have a spa. We don't typically book services but we love using the sauna, steamer, and other amenities. We stopped at the spa and were given a brief tour. We were not shown the thalassa features, so I can't tell you what they entail, but we did see the cold plunge tub, a small windowless relaxation room, a small sauna and steamer. This area was not very large or impressive for a spa property and the resort charges 22 Euro per person, per day to use it. No where on their website, or any affiliated sites was this published. We would not have booked this hotel if we had known about the upcharge. Also, their website says they have a jacuzzi but none of the three outdoor pools had a spa. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed the gorgeous beach and pools but a cool day would have been miserable. Other disappointments were inconsistent housekeeping; one night we had no turndown service at all and other nights we had only the delivery of water. We constantly had to ask for coffee pods and/or cream. The gym is lovely and they have high end cardio but need additional free weights, one set of each weight is inadequate. The breakfast staff and food were wonderful, but we will not return.

Overall Experience: 3.5/5
We had a pleasant stay overall, with some standout moments, but also a few hiccups.
The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety and friendly staff making it a real highlight of our mornings. The quality of the room service was also good, though we did experience a few issues. The selection was somewhat limited, and the meal arrived without the correct plates and cutlery, which was a bit disappointing for the price. The €9 delivery charge for room service felt a bit excessive, and the €5 fee for extra plates seemed unnecessary.
The Kids Club was a hit with the children—they had a great time and it gave us some time to relax. Unfortunately, the bad weather meant the kids spent more time indoors, and they logged into the movie entertainment system. Unbeknownst to me, they were able to easily access and run up a bill of several hundred euros. I tried reaching out via email to address the charges, but it turns out the movie service is managed by an external supplier. Despite my efforts, I’ve had limited success in getting a refund, which has been quite frustrating.
We didn’t try the hotel’s other restaurant meals, so I can’t comment on those,
Overall, while we enjoyed our stay, the lack of support from the third-party entertainment provider, the extra charges for room service, and the small service issues prevent me from giving a higher rate

Nice resort to unwind and relax. There is no shopping or much to see like in Lisbon so it is a great way to spend 3 or 4 days to end a trip. The resort is lush but very expensive and there are many lush resorts much closer to the states that offered much more. Breakfast buffet is one of the best in the world and I travel world wide. My room was 1700 sf with 2 bedrooms and 3 baths, the most expensive offered. Housekeeping was good but not great. Check in is slow. And it has a strong time share sales feel to it. The property is large and you tour it in a golf car, they push tours as well. No one greeted us upon arrival. So staffing is a little weak and service at any of the dining areas was slow. You have to hunt people down. It is a little too zen and no one really talks to each other. There are 4 pools all salt water, only one is heated. There is a private beach but off the 4 days all 4 had yellow flags with an afternoon that was green so you could swim. Water was cold and a lot of seaweed. I liked the gym and they have a great spa with wet and dry sauna as well as ice bath and ice shaven bath if you are brave to do it. I love it and you feel great. Nice playground area for little kids. Cool hiking paths along the cliffs. So I would rate this 8 out of 10. There are much better resorts that check more boxes than this one I. The Caribbean, Hawaii and Mexico. But if you really want to see the Agarve and time in Portugal I would say it is a nice place

Wasps everywhere on property so hard to relax and enjoy pool, breakfast outside or beach. For price point wish we had selected elsewhere.

We had a fantastic stay for our baby moon!
-Room was very large and clean. Beautiful balcony. We didn’t use the tub, but it was pretty and there was a large shower with his and her shower heads. Lots of squishy or firm pillows.

-Stunning views and gardens wherever you look!

-Breakfast was amazing! It ends at 10:30am, but if you come near the closing time, they have absolutely everything still there.

-we ate at the Coral restaurant which was fantastic and upscale. We also went twice to the Italian restaurant and could have gone every night - both were incredible!

-the beach is gorgeous and there are kayaks and paddle boards for rental down at the beach. Beautiful chair and umbrella set up! Other reviews state that there are not enough chairs, however, if you don’t see one open, just ask the beach attendant and he will get an umbrella and a chair for you, so this is not an issue.

-All of the staff at reception, the spa, the beach, and all the restaurants were amazing and very friendly, always in a great mood and making us feel welcome. A special thank you to Sandea for being so welcoming and kind.

-I had a maternity massage at the spa and had Maria. It was amazing and I would highly recommend it!

Understaffed and run down

We stayed with our family for 5 nights and I was upset at the end on the way things are handled here. Lets start with the positives - the location is great and one of the few properties with direct beach access. The gardens are well kept and most of the pool and beach staff are excellent. Raizes is a treat
Sadly when you land you will notice a very small office to report too which is labelled as reception. There are 2-3 people working here with 1-2 buggies at any given time. You can see the stress on their face and the fact that they appear stretched and busy. Granted we went at the busy end of the season but with the amount we paid surely we deserved much better. The manager who I think is called Tiageo (Brazilian bloke) had a definite chip on his shoulder.
Once you manage to locate your room you would notice that the roads in the property have potholes, yeps you heard that correct.
The room showers work on one temperature only, either cold or excessively hot. And don't try and complaint, you get the look that you start doubting yourself, or the reception staff start acting as if they don't understand English that well ! We resorted to using the free showers in the wellness spa as the showers worked as they should in that place.
The place is hilly and no buggy staff is keen to give you a lift even if they are going empty. We have stayed is most luxurious properties and never noticed this. And the staff wont initiate any greetings to you, they look saddened and underpaid.

The only part of this resort that didn’t all the way blow my mind was the food. It was good/average. I’m a food fanatic so you can trust me. The breakfast in the morning is amazing , but the dinners itself fell a little short and left me wanting for a better experience. This is not due to the staff because service is great but the chef can do better. Overall still rating this resort 5 star!

My number one reason for booking this hotel was that I wanted access to the private beach, which was absolutely perfect and I enjoyed every minute of my time on it. It’s a gorgeous beach, with very comfortable chairs and lots of shade.
The hotel itself is lovely, the grounds expansive. Make sure you’re in good shape, there’s a lot of stairs and a lot of walking uphill, which, of course leads to beautiful views!
The staff were extremely friendly and very helpful. A big thanks to Ramon for his recommendation at eating at Joao restaurant in Guia. Amazing PiriPiri and the yummiest tomatoes ever.
The hotel includes water for the room and coffee, but that’s pretty much it.
For the cost, I’ve stayed in places which were equally nice, but included more amenities and little treats for guests, either in the room, or on the resort, and usually would include breakfast.
The restaurants are unbelievably overpriced, and if you have a car, there are many delicious options within driving distance that are more local, authentic Portuguese experience.
Overall, we had an excellent stay, and I would definitely recommend this hotel and visit again.

Fantastic stay! Every day we went out exploring the area we were so happy to get back to our property! Besides the beautiful grounds and multiple pools on the property, you essentially have your own private beach. In theory, I believe anyone could enjoy this beach from another entrance point, but during our 5-day stay it was uncrowded and for the most part, only accessed by other hotel guests. You felt like you had the place to yourself!

The breakfast was great and our room was comfortable and spacious (though a bit dated). A lot of amenities from tennis and padle courts to beaches and pools plus ,many inviting spaces to sit and relax throughout the beautifully manicured property.

The most wonderful vacation!

The most wonderful vacation! My wife and I went June 2022 and from the beginning to end it was everything you could want in a resort, incredible and friendly staff, gorgeous room and views, breathtaking beach, we loved every second! Cannot wait to return :)

This resort is really good and I will be going back! The staff are very very friendly and service-focused. The site is beautiful and very well kept but few minor gripes (and please keep in context that this is a place you should visit). I found the onsite restaurants very expensive and a bit dull with a limited menu, as a vegetarian menu didn't deliver much at all. The gym was poor when considering this is a spa resort, the equipment is old and the room is very warm. These are minor gripes but I would recommend a visit as staff were incredible and site is beautiful.

We took the 2 hour private boat tour through dive spot. Highly recommend it! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, offered us snacks and drinks. Dont miss out on this opportunity to see Algarve from the sea. The entire hotel staff was friendly and took excellent care of us.

Wonderful location and wonderful staff- willing to help all the time. The property is beautiful and the beach is exceptional. Breakfast buffet is the best in Portugal.
However, the property is older and needs remodel.
