I stayed here on conference; never been to Portugal before. The breakfast , and buffet lunch were excellent, much better than I expected. Rooms were fantastic; however I was disappointed by the gym area, which was tiny- far too small with only a couple of machines. The spa is world class, there are no shops however and the minibar is around £3.00 for a can of coke/ bottle of local water. I intend to return with my family

My wife and I stayed in this hotel for a week last October. We had a great holiday. All the facilities in the hotel are excellent. The breakfast was brilliant my wife said it was the best she'd had anywhere. Our room was outside the main hotel block beyond the pool and it was modern, clean and well serviced. If travelling to Vilamoura in the evening the hotel run a shuttle bus but ask at reception for details. We had a couple of really nice meals in Dom Pedros restaurant in Vilamoura. Dom Pedros is behind the marina not far from McDonalds. I recommend the fillet steak Portugese style one of the tastiest tender steaks ever. I would definately stay in Vila Sol again.

My wife and I were in the Algarve looking for a holiday home and used Vilasol Hotel for our base. We liked the resort that much we bought our house there, overlooking the 17th fairway. The standard of accommodation is very good and the meals are excellent. Dinner at the d'olive restaurant in the golf clubhouse is a beautiful experience, service second to none. I would have no hesitation in recommending.

We visited the Vila Sol for a long weekend in October. Everything about the room, facilities, service and restuarant were excellent.
Pleasant, courtous and helpful staff made a difference.
Our only slight criticism was that the golf courses seemed overplayed and that handicap checks could be more discriminating.
The course ranger/caddymaster (as my friend called "The Golf Gestapo") was officious but inefficient as this apparently did not extend to removing obviously poor golfers from the course. He seemed to like the sound of his own voice more than actually promoting smooth traffic round the course.
The 3 9-hole courses were very good but not great, not as impressive as Penina or Quinta do Lago, but having the advantage of a very good hotel with everything on site made for a very relaxing break.
We would definitely return.
