Sunny Algarve at Hotel Anantara!
The places I enjoy visiting the most usually have a beach, plenty of sun, a relaxing atmosphere, and a peaceful vibe. The Algarve, located in the South of Portugal, is my favorite place in the country. Plenty of sunshine, delicious cuisine focused on the best fish and seafood, great nightlife, and unlimited beaches. Since Lisbon is only a 2-hour drive from the Algarve, it’s easy to combine the busy life of the city and the beach vibe of the Algarve in one trip.
There are so many gorgeous towns to choose from on a holiday in the Algarve, and one of my favorites is Vilamoura. Especially when staying at Hotel Anantara, which has a location that is absolutely perfect. It’s in a very peaceful area next to a golf course, but just a few minutes’ drive from several beautiful beaches, the Vilamoura Marina, and many restaurants and bars.
Hotel Anantara is a 5-star hotel with a host of amenities: five beautiful pools to enjoy the summer weather, a wonderful spa, the biggest and most well-equipped fitness center I’ve seen in a hotel, two restaurants, two pool bars, a fantastic wine tasting bar, and a beach club. Plenty of options to spend the entire day without leaving the hotel, discover and indulge in the fantastic Portuguese gastronomy and relax with a drink and snacks by the pool.
The rooms are really spacious, beautifully decorated, and have large comfortable beds. Some of the suites even come with a private rooftop jacuzzi which makes it the ultimate relaxation experience. All of the rooms have a big balcony, the perfect place to watch the sunset after a wonderful day in the sun.
