Idyllic 5* Algarve villa retreat in the Lapa Valley

• Elegant Algarve living: Nestled between the picture-postcard villages of Ferragudo and Carvoeiro, Vale da Lapa Village Resort offers a modern slice of five-star Algarve living. Retreat to your contemporary, two-story villa and spend your days gazing out from the balcony, relaxing in bright and airy guest rooms, or heading down to the shared pool for some fun in the sun.

• Dinner, your way: When you’re not unwinding in your villa's comfortable living area or cooking up a feast in your fully-equipped kitchen, let someone else take care of what to eat at the inviting Serenata Restaurant. Tuck into tasty Mediterranean-inspired and international dishes, or hit the pool bar for a post-dip tipple. The warm ambience of the Lounge Bar is also on hand for light snacks and cocktails, which can be enjoyed from the outdoor terrace.

• Soothing spa moments: While little ones enjoy sports and entertainment or get creative in the seasonal kids' club, find some time to spoil yourself at the D'SPA. Get your circulation going in the sauna and sensory showers, relax in the steam room, or let your worries float away in the Jacuzzi. You could even opt to de-stress with a soothing optional massage or pampering beauty treatment.
