W Algarve brought the brand's volume to the coast in 2022: a sculptural terraced complex on the clifftop at Sesmarias, between Albufeira's old town and the Galé coves, every suite and residence aimed at the Atlantic.
The register is playful luxury — design quoting tiles, copper and wave-forms; the WET pool deck with DJ summers; Away Spa, gym and padel; restaurants running Mediterranean, sushi and steak; and the W Lounge keeping the brand's social pulse after dark. Families fit (residences, kids' club), but the mood is grown-up glamour.
For travellers who want the Algarve with a soundtrack, this is its address.
