An authentic flavour of Portugal ? at the exclusive Anantara Vilamoura Algarve Resort
When reaching for the heights of luxury, some destination hotels might lose sight of what really leaves a lasting impression for a guest; the details that bring joy to a stay; the experiences that enrich.
Yet that?s simply not the case with Anantara Hotels. At their European flagship Anantara Vilamoura Algarve Resort in southern Portugal, guests indulge in more than simply refined luxury – they experience Portugal in an intimate and thoughtful way, writes Andrew Forbes.
Unforgettable Journey
Fado, the unmistakably subtle, beautiful, and slightly melancholy music so evocative of Portugal, filled the lobby bar of the resort. Seated beneath the resort?s iconic ?tree? sculpture, of pine and acacia, in the hotel?s central atrium were two musicians. One was playing a classical Spanish guitar, the other a beautifully crafted guitarra Portuguesa ? both accompanying the singer, whose soulful lyrics were filled with emotion.
This nightly ritual is just one of the many ways that the Anantara Vilmoura Algarve Resort takes its guests of a journey through the Algarve and Portugal. It is a journey that embraces all the scenes; from the authentic sounds of the country, the visual feast of local colours and art; to the aromas and scents of the seasonal foods, and the soft tactile properties of local artisan products.
