SOFITEL THALASSA VILALARA - Lagoa - Algarve - Portugal

    The Sofitel Thalassa Vilalara is a blend of Sun, Sea and Well-being. A complex that meets the most demanding standards and offers you suites and apartments with comfort, style and good taste.

The key aspect of this Sofitel is its Thalassotherapy Centre, with facilities comparable to those found in the best European Centres. Bathed in an oasis of greenery, the low lying architecture is in harmony with the ground and gives this location an air of intimacy, just right for relaxation.

The footpaths that link the various swimming pools are an invitation to stroll through a magnificent garden rich in colours and scents.
From the top of the escarpment, overlooking the ocean, you can dream of discovery and freedom.

There are 120 junior suites. Their decoration is simple but refined and they are composed of a bedroom combined living room and bathroom. All these suites have their own terrace and views over the magnificent garden or the swimming pool.
For those guests who enjoy luxury, the Sofitel Thalassa Vilalara has 2 presidential suites named “Lisboa” and “Porto”.

Although the Sofitel Thalassa Vilalara does not have its own private golf course, we have arrangements with the best Golf clubs in the Algarve that allow GOLF lovers the possibility of benefiting from special prices.

A magnificent half-crescent of fine sand laid down at the base of the escarpment over the years, this beach has two names, for some people it is “Praia das Gaivotas” (Beach of the Seagulls) while older people still use the name “Praia da Cova Redonda” (Beach of the Round Pit).

The Sofitel Thalassa Vilalara, has direct access to the beach.
In Summer, and when climateric conditions permit, we make the following equipment available to our guests:
• Free parasols and loungers,
• Balls for playing “pétanque”
Nearby, various nautical sports can be enjoyed and there are caves to be visited (paid activities).

The hotel has 4 tennis courts, 2 of which are floodlit (Opening hours: 7H00-22H00). Want a few lessons? Just ask, and our tennis coach will be fully available to help you.

Gastronomy: Typical Algarvian gastronomy is characterised by grilled sardines, lobster and the aroma of a fish and sea-food “cataplana”, as well as desserts based on almonds and figs, Lagoa wine and “medronho” spirits. You can also try delicious, traditional, flavour-rich Portuguese recipes or, if you prefer, a choice of several international dishes.

In the Thalassotherapy Centre, the therapists put the properties of seawater to the service of your health. Your body is in perfect osmosis with the elements of nature.
The ideal Climate, the generosity of the installations, the welcoming service, nestled next to water and nature, the Sofitel Thalassa Vilalara helps you discover your body and awakens your senses. To look, to listen, to feel and breathe, to taste and be nourished, to touch and communicate.
We guarantee you: stimulation of the circulation, improvement of your silhouette, muscular relaxation, reduction of stress and improved skin texture.
Thalassotherapy is also used for treating rheumatism, arthrosis and arthritis, by rehabilitation in a marine medium.
