The Lake Resort

The 5-star Lake Resort and Hotel is located in the heart of Vilamoura, possibly Europe's best golf and leisure destination in the Algarve, on the sunshine southern coast of Portugal. Vilamoura is known worldwide for its active environmental policies, and is unique in boasting coveted ISO certification for its five golf courses, international marina and beautiful beach. A further, 27-hole, golf course adjoins Vilamoura giving a total of 117 holes to enjoy! Just beyond the boundaries of The Lake Resort are the soft sand dunes that lead to Falésia beach and the restless, inviting ocean. Vilamoura's marina - the largest in Portugal - with an abundance of boutiques, shops, restaurants and cafés with espalanades and international casino are all just a short stroll away.

There are a number of five-star hotels in the Algarve, but The Lake Resort is unique. It has a very clear philosophy - HUMAN - NATURE - HISTORY - DREAMS - and every aspect of the resort is designed to reflect one or more elements of that philosophy.

Here is an acknowledgement of Portugal's proud past, when its brave explorers opened routes to previously unknown parts of the world, paving the way for an exchange of cultures, products and experiences. Here is a tribute to Portugal's traditional crafts, which are woven into the very fabric of the local lifestyle.

And here is the perfect setting where Human Beings and Nature can breathe together in perfect harmony. From around the world, from Nature herself, inspiration has been drawn to create a voyage through time and across the oceans. Each area of the hotel has its own individual character and yet the whole is somehow connected, flowing, naturally.

Long, hot summers attract those who enjoy sunshine and beaches while milder, gentle winters are ideal for golfers. Faro International Airport is within 2½ hours flying time of most major European cities, and modern motorways mean fast, easy access to all parts of the region. A cosmopolitan population, an international outlook and a laid-back way of life make the Algarve the perfect place to relax and enjoy the very best in sport and leisure; fine wining and dining and the lovely natural countryside.
