Hilton Vilamoura As Cascatas Golf Resort & Spa
Vilamoura
Hilton Vilamoura As Cascatas Golf Resort & Spa is a fantastic base for golfers who want championship golf, excellent spa facilities and easy access to everything Vilamoura has to offer. Set within five acres of landscaped gardens and directly beside Pinhal Golf Course, the resort gives you a quieter place to relax while keeping Vilamoura Marina, the beach and several of the Algarve’s best-known courses only a short journey away.
The accommodation combines spacious contemporary rooms and suites with balconies overlooking the gardens, swimming pools or surrounding resort. For longer stays and groups wanting additional independence, hotel residences are also available. We particularly like the setting for golf groups because you can enjoy a peaceful morning before your round while still having Vilamoura’s restaurants and nightlife close enough for an evening out.
Golf is naturally one of the biggest attractions. Pinhal Golf Course is immediately alongside the resort, while the Old Course, Millennium and Laguna are also within the Vilamoura golf collection. This gives you four contrasting 18-hole courses close to the hotel and makes it easy to create a multi-round itinerary without spending large parts of the holiday travelling between courses. A golf shop and PGA professional services are also available through the resort.
When the clubs are away, the facilities are excellent. The hotel has six swimming pools, surrounded by landscaped gardens and cascading water features, providing plenty of space to unwind in the Algarve sunshine. The impressive 7 Seven Spa is another major highlight and includes an indoor thermal pool, Turkish baths, saunas, experience shower and Zen garden alongside an extensive treatment menu. After several rounds of golf, it is exactly the sort of place we would want to spend an afternoon.
The resort also runs a complimentary shuttle to Vilamoura Marina and Falésia Beach, making it easy to divide your time between golf, the coast and evenings around the marina. Vilamoura’s huge choice of restaurants, bars and shops means there is plenty to enjoy when you fancy a night away from the hotel.
For golfers looking for a full-service Algarve resort with several courses close by, excellent wellness facilities and easy access to Vilamoura, Hilton Vilamoura As Cascatas Golf Resort & Spa is an excellent choice.

About The Area
Almancil is one of the Algarve’s best bases for a Portugal golf holiday, especially if your group wants easy access to the famous Golden Triangle without staying directly inside one resort. Sitting inland between Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo and Vilamoura, Almancil puts golfers close to some of the Algarve’s most prestigious courses, beaches, restaurants and luxury hotels. Visit Portugal describes the central Algarve area between Vilamoura, Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo as one of the region’s most luxurious and best-equipped areas for golf.
For golf, Almancil is perfectly placed. Quinta do Lago offers the South, North and Laranjal courses, while Vale do Lobo is known for its Royal and Ocean courses, including spectacular coastal holes by the Atlantic. Quinta do Lago is around 15 minutes from Faro International Airport, and Vale do Lobo is also less than 30 minutes from Faro and the airport, which makes transfers simple for UK golfers.
Away from the course, Almancil gives you plenty of choice. We would recommend São Lourenço Church for its beautiful azulejo tilework, a beach afternoon at Quinta do Lago or Vale do Lobo, and a walk through the Ria Formosa boardwalks and nature trails. For evenings, Almancil is a great food base, with easy access to stylish resort dining, beach clubs and traditional Algarve restaurants.
Our tip: choose Almancil if your group wants a flexible Algarve golf break with championship golf, short transfers and brilliant dining close by.
