Destination introduction
Vila Sol boasts a 27-hole golf championship golf course which has hosted the Portuguese Open twice, however this modern resort is not all about the fairways. There is a sophisticated Spa with some 20 treatment rooms, a Hammam and Aquamedic pool. There are shops, restaurants and a number of bars, whilst Vilamoura with its glamorous harbour, the Ria Formosa national park home to an array of rare birdlife, and the beautiful sandy coast are all a short distance away.
