Nikki Beach Vilamoura

Nikki Beach Lounge, in Vilamoura is nestled behind the restaurant and provides a great way to spend lazy afternoons. The set up is nicely done although a bit tight in some areas, but lots of couch and bed areas to choose from.

We got a few unexpected surprises the afternoon we went, it was sweltering hot; umbrellas had run out and drinks were hard to come by. We risked it and got a couple of chairs, ordered some drinks and a bottle of water….the drinks were nice and icy but when the water finally arrived, it was served at ambient temperature…sans ice. Since we had drinks with ice we made due and just enjoyed the afternoon. The suprise came when the bill arrived, the drinks were a bit pricey but a single bottle of 1.5lts of water came to 12€….this was the same bottle that was served up warm without ice. But the most painful part was yet to come. After leaving the lounge and having some gelado on the marina, we made a quick stop for water at the nearby Ali Super got 2- 1.5lt bottles of (chilled) Luso; the total came to .98¢ ….ouuuch! I didn’t get a good look at the bottle label from Nikki Beach, but hope it was something really special, it may have been worth it, but hard to tell since it was served at 40C.

Don’t get me wrong I’m loving Nikki Beach but would love them more if they brought some consistency and sanity to their bar.

But damn, the beds are sooo comfy.

Oh I want to be here! I have never seen these kinds of accomodations on a beach. I would never make it in to work if I had this in my neighborhood! Beautiful.

I feel incredibly lucky to live here. I’ve been plotting a way to work from those beach beds, just need a solution to keep the sand off my laptop!
