Welcome to my review of the Blue & Green Lake Resort Vilamoura, in Portugal.

The hotel is a 5 star luxury resort with an ocean view, with a garden, 3 restaurants, 2 bars, 3 outdoor pools, one indoor pool and a fitness center.

It was the first time that I was in the Algarve. Arriving at the airport Faro, it was only a 30-minute drive with the bus to the hotel.

When we arrived at the hotel, I was a bit disappointed by the somewhat simple hotel entrance, but was then compensated from the hotel lobby and from the hotel area. In the lobby, at the reception, our suitcases were taken from us, and while we filled out our registration papers, we were given a little attention, a few cuts, and juice.

Furthermore, there was a voucher for a welcome drink in the pool bar. While we waited for our room, we made ourselves comfortable at the pool bar and drank our cocktail in the middle of a beautiful pool area.

Rooms

Our room was on the 4th floor. We had booked a luxury room with a sea view.

It had enough space. It had a separate toilet with bidet and sink. The bathroom was separated from the bedroom with sliding doors.

The room also has a small balcony. Just a pity that we couldn't stay long on the balcony, as the air conditioning located on the roof made a lot of noise!

But if we closed the balcony door, nothing was heard from the noise inside.

The room was equipped with a safe, coffee maker, kettle, and a large closet, in which the minibar was located. Opposite of the large double bed was on the wall a flat-screen, and on the chest of drawers was a Nespresso coffee, as well as 2 bottles of mineral water and a small fruit plate.

Every day we got two new Nespresso capsules and two bottles of mineral water.

Hotel Inside

The hotel has two restaurants, "Fusion" and "Jantar," where you can have dinner. The breakfast buffet is located in the restaurant "Gustatio".


Dinner is served at the table. Every day you have a different menu, which includes appetizers, a main course, and dessert. But if you do not like the composition of the list,  you can also choose something from the menu card.

The drinks at the table, such as wine, beer, water, tea, and coffee, are included in the half board.

The food was always well presented and of good quality.

In the middle of the beautiful pool area is also located the pool bar "Blue Lagoon" where you can have a drink, and you can have lunch.

The entire staff of the hotel was very attentive and friendly and made sure that you felt comfortable.

The hotel has a lovely spa area and a fitness center with an indoor pool.

Hotel Outside

Outside the hotel, there is a beautiful cleaned garden with three pools, one with a sandy beach.

In the middle of the complex, there is a lake. A wooden path meanders all around the lake through a well-maintained complex.

If you go out on the backside from the hotel to the left side, you come to a huge marina with very impressive boats. On the harbor promenade, there are many shops, restaurants, and bars that are very busy in the evening and during the day.

Pros

If you like it a little quieter, you go out on the backside from the garden of the hotel to the right, then you go over a small bridge to the beach.

Here you can walk for miles across the very beautiful, wide, and up to 4 km long beach. You can take a break in one of the several beach restaurants and eat something, or go for a drink.

Cons

The noise on the balcony from the air conditioner did not allow us to sit and enjoy the beautiful view.
