best bars in Vilamoura

The Four Seasons, Vilamoura, isn’t affiliated with the famous hotel chain — but with its classy cocktails and sophisticated setting, it’s just as luxurious. The stylish cocktail bar offers everything from carefully crafted Moscow Mules to international beers, and their wine list is impressive, too. If you’re looking for a Vilamoura bar away from the marina, the Four Seasons is a great place to try.

Northwoods Bar

Not to be confused with the bar of the same name in Albufeira, Vilamoura has its very own Northwoods Sports Bar. It has a more relaxed pub vibe than some of the other bars on this list, so it’s the ideal place to catch a game on the weekend. With a drinks menu boasting classic tipples — think sangria, cider, and whisky sours — there’s something for everyone at Northwoods. Find this sports bar in the Marina Arcadas, a little set back from the seafront.
