Paul’s Review of Vilalara Longevity Thalassa & Medical Spa, Algarve
Built over 20 years ago and famed for its thalassotherapy treatments, Vilalara Longevity Thalassa & Medical Spa is a wellness lover’s heaven. Not only does it boast 11 acres of tranquil lush greenery, but it also has a golden sandy beach right on its doorstep giving you the best of both worlds. So, if you’re looking for a no fuss holiday where you can gain expert advice on how to detox,…
Everything is always wonderful when I stay in Longevity Vilalara. It was my 3rd time I don't think I will try anywhere else. It was so nice to be welcomed back by the staff, everybody there is so friendly and nothing is ever too much for them. All I can say is Go! You will love it!

We can’t think of better destination to do a Detox! The liquid diet was surprisingly easy to follow and everything was simply delicious. We both achieved great results. The hotel is stunning and the specialists are friendly and caring. It was great to be there in February, as it was peaceful and relaxing – paradise!

Wonderful holiday! Members of staff are very friendly and helpful, accommodation is stunning – truly 5 stars – and the food is outstanding. Spa treatments were the best part of the holiday! Health and Fitness Travel was great at suggesting and organising all for me.

Highs
The architecture and landscape have a rustic charm, with beautiful flowers and a private beach view. It is stylish without being pretentious.
Treatments are a fusion of Thalassa, spa, contemporary wellness and anti-ageing solutions, providing you with an all-round well-being experience.
The spa facilities are adult-only ensuring optimal relaxation.
There is a comprehensive Longevity Vitality Activity Plan of group classes
There is a booking service for surrounding golf courses, meaning you don’t have to waste time turning up and waiting around.
If you are a fish and seafood lover, the Terrace Grill prepares excellent fresh dishes.
For an added thrill, why not try some of the water sports available, including jet skiing, scuba diving and surfing.
The medicine aspect of the resort is really great for individuals with specific physiological ailments.
Lows
The rooms are not super close to the main spa area, therefore if you struggle with mobility this might be an issue (although they do have golf buggies to get you around)
There is only one main restaurant option
The pool can be a bit chilly
