Reopening in February 2026, Wine & Books by the Sea Algarve Resort rises from the former Vidamar Resort Hotel Algarve with a renewed sense of character. You arrive beside the Salgados Nature Reserve, where dunes, lagoon, and Atlantic shoreline create a rare balance between wild landscape and refined comfort. With Salgados Golf Course just moments away, your days can begin on the fairway and end with the sea breeze on your terrace.
Across 250 rooms and suites, including family friendly and sea view options, you find space designed for calm. Six swimming pools, a full spa, gym, kids club, and dedicated event areas shape a complete escape. Dining becomes a journey in itself, with five restaurant concepts exploring Mediterranean, Italian, Asian, and traditional Portuguese flavours, always paired with a thoughtful selection of national wines.
Bookshelves woven into the design reflect the brand’s cultural identity, inviting you to slow down. Here, comfort, cuisine, and setting converge in a stay defined by authenticity and light.
