Portugal’s sun-drenched Algarve may be thousands of miles from Cuba, but the award-winning five-star Vila Vita Parc Resort & Spa brings Cuban flavors, music and atmosphere to guests throughout the holiday period from December 24 to January 1, 2018. Guests can start their mornings at the breakfast buffet with selections from a cinnamon bun bar, then sample Cuban-inspired cocktails, afternoon tea accompanied by Cuban sweets, and quality Cuban cigars served at the Oasis Bar.
The resort’s New Year’s Eve package offers a full holiday experience. It includes a daily breakfast buffet, a special festive welcome amenity placed in-room on arrival, a 50-minute anti-stress massage, New Year’s Day brunch and access to the Grand New Year’s Eve Ball. The ball—presented under the theme “One Night in Little Havana at Vila Vita Parc”—is a black-tie gala featuring a six-course menu, live entertainment and dancing. At midnight on December 31, a fireworks display will illuminate the sky above the resort.
Dining options for the holiday season extend to Arte Nautica and the Praia Dourado beachside restaurant, where guests can choose from three- or four-course New Year’s menus paired with a specialty cocktail. Additional festive activities include a Christmas Market at the Biergarten offering seasonal food and drink, handcrafted goods and gift items, creating a warm, celebratory atmosphere for families and couples alike.
Vila Vita Parc’s holiday programming blends luxurious resort amenities with themed entertainment and curated dining experiences. The combination of spa treatments, special culinary offerings and live festivities aims to provide a complete holiday escape—whether guests seek relaxation, gourmet dining or lively celebrations—while enjoying the scenic beaches and refined hospitality of the Algarve.
