Four Seasons Fairways — Hotel in Loulé

There are many options in Quinta when choosing holiday accommodation. Fairways seems to capture the 'use every available square inch' ethos very well. But what they do better than most is the effort they have put into landscaping so that this does not appear to be so. From nearly any angle, the vista is a mix of structure and flora. There is a mix of single and 2 storey villas. Ours, a single, has two double ensuite bedrooms, proper kitchen and 6 seat dining table. There are two sofas one of which converts to a bed for those hard to rid of guests. The balcony area comes with 6 loungers, 2 tables with chairs, a gas barbecue and jacuzzi hot tub. Like the club house, it has been recently refurbished. In the club house, the poolside bar with the glazed facade/roof at one side gives a lovely in - out feel. The staff are as friendly as ever. Most have been at Fairways for years, (Tony 1 lifeguard has been there for 20+ years), so that must mean something. The restaurant and menu have been refreshed with breakfast one of the best along this stretch of coast. Family friendly but not exclusively, you will make friends for life here. A great holiday destination. Oh, and there is a golf course if you like to ruin a...

A true home away from home. We've been coming here for years now with my family and every year it gets better. My kids are at the age when they can enjoy all the fun in and out of Fairways. From swimming 🏊‍♂️ in the villa pool, to the indoor and outdoor pool in the main complex. Playing tennis 🎾, playing in the games area and most of all playing football ⚽️ with Antonio at 5pm on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Antonio has a great way with children and his 5pm football was a highlight for my boys.

The service at the Vivo restaurant 🍽🍹🥂🍻 is very friendly and the food is good and well priced. There is a nice bar with in and outdoor seating.

The whole complex has been revamped and is looking very stylish, with comfortable sun loungers , easy access pool, covered outdoor seating and large indoor jacuzzi.

The only negative I have to say is the mini market is expensive. The mini market in Vilar Do Golf is much better value.

If you have young kids in a buggy or if you use a wheelchair or if you don't like walking up/down stairs - I wouldn't say this place is for you. There are a lot of steps from villa/ apartment to the...

Just visited the newly refurbished Clubhouse at Four seasons fairways. Spent over three weeks watching the clubhouse take form to meet the opening day. Credit to all the people involved in such a massive task and the results are stunning. The new Amara restaurant has amazing views over Quinta North golf course. A must see. The new heated swimming pool, deck area and inside/outside bar has tranformed the resort into the 21st century. Well done to all concerned, the staff, builder's and the Pool Company and especially the General Manager Jorge, who was working till all hours of the mornings to help complete the task. Can't wait...
