W Hotels Worldwide is preparing to make its brand entry in Portugal with the launch of W Algarve, opening spring 2022.
Ideally situated on Portugal’s most coveted coastline, this new W Escape offers simultaneous seaside relaxation with high-energy sophistication.
Under 50km from Faro International Airport, this new destination incorporates 134 hotel rooms, suites and 83 residences, complete with azure views and spacious balconies.
The guest rooms showcase an Algarve reinterpreted by W; Atlantic colours and asymmetrical forms mimic the nearby cliffs, whilst dynamic tile designs are a modern tribute to Portuguese heritage. Signature W amenities complete each room with plush bath robes, spacious bathtubs and rain showers.
The ten WOW suites demonstrate next-level luxury, each providing two floors of state-of-the art resort living. Downstairs, the living areas feature ultramodern BOSE® entertainment systems allowing guests to set the scene of their choice. Upstairs, guests can soak up the Algarve sun on the spacious sunny rooftop terrace, with eye-popping coastal views and private plunge pools, available in selected WOW suites.
W Algarve‘s high quality F&B offering includes The Market Kitchen restaurant, which has been created with a neighbourhood ambience in mind, together with inspiration from the local markets. The restaurant will serve relaxed, modern interpretations of international favourites and regional cuisine that’s both farm and ocean fresh.
Sitting atop the hotel with panoramic views over the grounds and ocean beyond is the showstopping Paper Moon, the Mediterranean sister to the original Milanese restaurant. Serving award-winning, honest Italian cuisine, the elegant restaurant features a bar, dining room and terrace.
The Living Room is the perfect place to end the night, with an eclectic menu of drinks that celebrate W’s cocktail culture as well as local distilleries to the Algarve.
Sea Sky is a breathtaking location on the rooftop of the hotel, overlooking the golden bay of ArmaçaÌo de Pera, where cliffs connect with ocean colours. The perfect setting pre or post dinner to sip, mix and mingle.
Champagne sunset deck AIR offers an array of Cava, Champagne, Prosecco, Franciacorta, Espumante, Port and Moscato. The fine sparkling selection pays homage to the Tartessian planted vines in the Sado and Tagus valleys.
Last, but not least, the AWAY Spa features six treatment rooms including one couple’s room, a hair salon, a mani & pedi bar, facial LED masks treatments, as well as Express Booths for pre-dinner touch ups.
The spa also incorporates a wet area with sauna, steam and jacuzzi and a covered outdoor relaxation area. The Beauty Bar offers a relaxed, social space with a variety of express and longer treatments. Guests can also take a sunrise yoga or a dip at the WET Deck – the W brand’s signature take on the poolside scene.
