BRIGHT AND RT BEACHY

The Residences are sitting pretty on the central Algarve coast, offering simultaneous seaside relaxation and high-energy sophistication. Residents can set their own pace: starfish by the trio of swimming pools or beaches, unwind in the spa, sample Portuguese and international flavours in the restaurants and bar, or indulge their nocturnal side with help from the resident DJs. In-the-know Insiders – aka the enhanced W concierge – are on hand to dish out expert tips about the region’s best bars, spas, boutiques, restaurants and activities. If owners can tear themselves away, that is.

13 ALL DAY UNDER THE SUN

Residents have endless reasons to head outside: the peaceful terraces, landscaped grounds and trio of hotel pools, AKA Wet Decks, for starters. There’s also a residents- only swimming pool, tucked away in a secluded spot. A choice of al fresco bars means that perfectly refreshing drink is never too far away.

Life tastes better with W: residents and guests are spoiled for choice when it comes to drinks and food here. Cocktails are at the heart of our game, as they inspire the design and glamorous social scene of the public and private spaces at the W Residences Algarve. The B+F (beverage and food) are inspired by discreet, insider gatherings transitioning between work and play, and are both the philosophical and conceptual heart and soul of every space in the hotel, radiating outward from The Living Room.

RESIDENCES Enjoy ultimate exclusivity in the Residences, which share the hotel’s alluring, by-the-beach setting, but offer added privacy. There are 95 Residences in total, comprising one to three bedroom residences, including duplexes and one four bedroom penthouse. Some residences have a private pool – all are kitted out in the signature bold style, with room for owners to adapt the styling to their individual preferences. Expect statement lights, bespoke furniture and high-end, high-tech fittings. Most Residences have sea views and all survey the local landscape.

The region is referenced throughout the design: fluid organic shapes pay tribute to the Algarve’s salt-shaped sea caves and each lobby features natural, beachy materials. Fabrics and furnishings play on traditional Portuguese costumes, patterns, tiles and landmarks.

Design tells stories. If anyone knows this, it’s AB Concept: the international design powerhouse behind W Residences Algarve. With Hong Kong starchitects Ed Ng and Terence Ngan at its helm, AB Concept has a glittering portfolio. Previous crowd-pleasing projects include five-star hotels and luxurious restaurant fit-outs across the globe.

In designing W Residences Algarve, the team took inspiration from the scenic Algarve setting. Interiors vibrantly interpret the local landscapes and its culture: its history, people, patterns, folk traditions and characteristic architecture. Colours, shapes and materials reflect the influence of the nearby Atlantic: cork and wood furniture is complemented by high-gloss glass and vivid splashes of blue, teal, gold and green.

Fused with this natural look and feel is the high-energy style that W has made its own. Design-wise, this translates to a series of surprises, from secret alcoves and unexpected shapes to vivid colour collisions and contrasting fabrics.

‘The W brand has a very distinct DNA, which is ubiquitously present among various hotel brands, especially when we want to weave the dynamic, modern, and playful W experience into a resort setting’, says Ed Ng, Co-founder and Principal of AB Concept. ‘A high-energy and pulsating lifestyle, situated within the dazzling coastline of .’

Residents and guests are invited to let the different design narratives unfold around them naturally. Follow pathways that lead to new spaces and prompt different moods, admire asymmetrical forms that mimic the nearby cliffs and notice various visual expressions of Portuguese culture, including hand-painted azulejos and latticed ceramic dishware. It’s the Algarve – reinterpreted by W. AB Concept, Interior Designers
