Overview

Domes Lake Algarve is the luxury brand’s first venture outside of Greece, and it doesn’t disappoint. Along with the Domes’ signature focus on style and lifestyle, this resort offers a private saltwater lake – with a range of water sports to boot – and direct access to Falesia Beach. The Domes Lake Residences provide spacious accommodation and self-catering facilities ideal for families.

The resort is sat on the southernmost tip of Portugal, in the Algarve’s trendy town of Vilamoura – home to plenty of fine dining restaurants, chic bars and a marina dotted with superyachts. From the resort, the ruggedly beautiful Falesia Beach is just 300 metres away and Vilamoura’s town centre is under a mile away. The protected wetlands of Ria Formosa Natural Park, home to a collection of rare birds, is 10 miles away; join the resort’s guided tour to make the most of your experience. Faro Airport is just 12 miles away.

Inspired by the island’s traditional architecture, whitewashed and cream buildings (some with terracotta roofs) comprise the resort. Wooden walkways wind through the gardens, connecting its different areas. Tropical and Sapphire One- and Two-bedroom Residences are furnished in a soothing palette of beige and soft light blue, and come complete with a fully equipped kitchen, an inviting dining area and living room.

Other facilities

Set just in front of the lake, bordered by white sun loungers and umbrellas, the semi-circle sand-bottom pool provides a unique spot for relaxation. Towering palms surround the two other pools, which are linked by a sunbathing bridge. The award-winning adult-only Soma Spa offers Greek-inspired treatments combined with products by renowned brand Elemis. Here you’ll also find an indoor pool, relaxation garden and gym. They run fitness classes on the lake pergola and sunrise yoga sessions, too.

Walk or cycle alongside olive, almond and fig trees on the resort’s nature trails, which span five kilometres. Otherwise, cruise around the resort lake in a pedalo or canoe, and continue your exploration of the Algarve with olive oil and wine tasting experiences. The ‘famous five’ golf courses of Vilamoura are within 12 miles of the resort, including the Dom Pedro Old Course, Dom Pedro Millennium, Victoria, Pinhal and Laguna golf courses. The concierge team are also on hand to assist with booking tee times, local restaurant reservations and nearby island excursions.

Younger guests can retreat to the free kids’ club, which provides Ofsted-standard supervision. They can also plant their own flowers and herbs, while learning about healthy eating and sustainability at the KiEPOS learning garden. There’s a creche available, too.
