Family Holiday | Vitor’s Plaza, Algarve

A Family Holiday in the Algarve Worth Every Penny

Looking for a family getaway that ticks every box without breaking the bank? Vitor’s Plaza in the beautiful Algarve delivers exactly that — spacious self-catering apartments, a fantastic range of activities for all ages, and some of southern Portugal’s finest beaches right on your doorstep. At Glen Travel, we think this is one of the best-value family packages we offer, and it’s easy to see why it’s so popular.

Vitor’s Plaza – Your Home Away From Home

Tucked just back from the beaches, Vitor’s Plaza is an apartment complex with a well-earned reputation. The apartments are spacious, well-equipped and kept to a high standard, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and attentive, friendly service. This is a property that clearly takes pride in what it offers.

For families, there’s plenty to keep everyone entertained without even leaving the complex. Younger guests have their own playground to burn off energy, and a round of mini-golf is always a hit with kids and grown-ups alike. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, so you can stay connected whenever you need to.

Praia do Vau – A Hidden Gem

The resort of Praia do Vau was once something of a well-kept secret in the Algarve, and it’s not hard to understand why those in the know kept coming back. Golden sands meet crystal-clear aquamarine water, framed by the region’s iconic ochre-coloured cliffs. The gentle swells make it perfect for paddling and swimming with younger children, while the rock pools and calm coves are ideal for a spot of snorkelling and exploring.

Beachfront restaurants and sunbed hire are all close to hand, making it easy to settle in for a long, relaxed day by the sea.

Explore the Best of the Algarve

Praia do Vau sits within easy reach of some of the Algarve’s most popular spots – Portimão, Alvor, Praia da Rocha and Lagos are all within a short drive, giving you plenty of options for day trips and evenings out. Golf enthusiasts will also appreciate the proximity of the Alto Golf Course, designed by the legendary Sir Henry Cotton, just a short walk from the complex.

With average flight times of just 3 to 4 hours from the UK and only one hour’s time difference, the Algarve is one of the most accessible and rewarding family destinations in Europe.
