Visited November 2018Everything is always wonderful when I stay in Longevity Vilalara. It was my 3rd time I don't think I will try anywhere else. It was so nice to be welcomed back by the staff, everybody there is so friendly and nothing is ever too much for them. All I can say is Go! You will love it!

Visited February 2018We can’t think of better destination to do a Detox! The liquid diet was surprisingly easy to follow and everything was simply delicious. We both achieved great results. The hotel is stunning and the specialists are friendly and caring. It was great to be there in February, as it was peaceful and relaxing – paradise!

- The spa facilities are adult-only ensuring optimal relaxation.
- There is a comprehensive Longevity Vitality Activity Plan of group classes
- There is a booking service for surrounding golf courses, meaning you don’t have to waste time turning up and waiting around.
- If you are a fish and seafood lover, the Terrace Grill prepares excellent fresh dishes.
- For an added thrill, why not try some of the water sports available, including jet skiing, scuba diving and surfing.
- The medicine aspect of the resort is really great for individuals with specific physiological ailments.
Lows
- The rooms are not super close to the main spa area, therefore if you struggle with mobility this might be an issue (although they do have golf buggies to get you around)
- There is only one main restaurant option
- The pool can be a bit chilly
