Viceroy Hotels & Resorts will further expand its European presence this October with the launch of Viceroy at Ombria Algarve in Ombria, Portugal.
Set on 13 acres with panoramic views of the Algarve hills and open plains, the 141-key resort will feature guestrooms, suites, and residences designed by WATG, Wimberly Interiors, and Lisbon-based architecture firm Promontorio.
The collaborative design will embrace local craftsmanship and celebrate Portuguese history and culture.
The hotel’s accommodations will be located across 24 buildings arranged to recall a traditional village. Guestrooms and suites will also include a mix of terraces, pools, balconies or jacuzzis, as well as kitchens, pantries, and dressing spaces.
The resort will launch with six dining outlets—Café Central, Bellvino, Ombria Kitchen, Solalua, Casa & Fora, and Salpico—each paying homage to the property’s locale.
Additionally, Viceroy at Ombria Algarve will boast four swimming pools (three heated and one seasonal) with valley and sunset views, along with a kid’s club, which will include a large playroom, a mini kitchen, and a nursery.
Dedicated to the health of the area’s land and ecosystems, the project also includes a plant nursery to ensure the growth and preservation of local flora and fauna. More than 700 oak trees have been planted and 5,900 linear feet of river habitat have been restored, too.
The resort will also incorporate bioclimatic architecture, along with solar and geothermal energy.
Holistic Spa by Viceroy—equipped with a thermal pool, eight treatment rooms, and beauty services—is expected to open onsite early next year.
