In the heart of the Algarve, the Longevity Health & Wellness Hotel, located in the picturesque village of Alvor, is much more than a hotel — it is a transformative experience dedicated to balancing body, mind, and soul. With modern, minimalist architecture that harmoniously blends with the surrounding nature, the resort creates a serene and sophisticated refuge, designed for those seeking renewal in every sense.
An environment designed for calm and renewal
Every space at Longevity is carefully crafted to foster a calm atmosphere where inner peace and relaxation take center stage. Attention to detail is evident throughout—from rooms offering alkaline water, special infusions, and essential aromatherapy oils, to the flavored waters available across the resort that keep guests hydrated healthily and pleasantly. The minimalist design enhances the natural beauty of the surroundings, allowing the Algarve’s light and colors to become part of the experience.
Personalized health and wellness
What sets Longevity apart is its holistic and personalized approach to health. The hotel offers a variety of programs tailored to individual needs, including detox plans, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant diets, supplementation, and a wide range of spa therapies. The philosophy is clear: wellness directly influences health, aiming to promote energy balance, stress resilience, improved sleep, proper hydration, and bio-physical and biochemical rebalancing, combined with physical movement and a better quality of life.
Nutritious and flavorful gastronomy at Pure Cafe
Located on the third floor with panoramic views over Alvor, Pure Cafe is a temple of healthy gastronomy where taste and nutrition go hand in hand. Breakfast offers a wide selection of superfoods, organic, gluten-free, and vegan options. Highlights include exclusive tea blends and infusions, Greek yogurt with granola, chia seeds, honey, artisanal jams, a variety of breads and pastries, and crepes with red fruits — all thoughtfully designed to start the day with energy and lightness.
For lunch and dinner, executive chef Fábio Magalhães presents dishes that emphasize natural flavors and the freshness of local ingredients. Highlights include roasted sea bass with pea purée enriched with spirulina, vitelotte potatoes, and vegetables, and the fish and seafood cataplana, reinvented with purple sweet potatoes for an innovative nutritious twist. Cod confit with ratatouille and a healthy ragu is another signature dish combining tradition and health.
For lovers of vegetarian and vegan cuisine, Pure Cafe offers an artisanal beetroot burger with vegan mayo and sweet potato bread, a sandwich with seitan and fresh greens, vegan Pad Thai with soba noodles, and a vegetable lasagna with plant-based béchamel, showcasing creative ways to combine flavor and mindful eating.
Among the meat options, the locally sourced, grass-fed veal loin and chop stand out, prepared with techniques that ensure succulence and delicate texture, seasoned with fresh herbs.
Desserts that delight
The dessert menu celebrates healthy and sophisticated sweets, with options such as coconut milk rice pudding, offering a lighter, cleaner take on the traditional Portuguese classic. The vegan red fruit panna cotta uses coconut milk and agar-agar, reinventing the traditional dessert with a modern touch. The selection is completed by a vibrant seasonal sliced fruit bowl, highlighting the richness of Algarve’s fruits.
Spa and outstanding treatments for body and mind
The Longevity spa is one of the hotel’s proudest features, with a fully equipped gym and a Detox & Relax circuit including infrared sauna, hammam, ice fountain, Epsom salt room, sensory showers, relaxation room and path, as well as heated indoor pools for detoxification and relaxation.
Massage sessions, manual lymphatic drainage, and other therapies are tailored to each guest’s needs. Notably, physiotherapy and osteopathy consultations with Ricardo Rosa — internationally recognized by Condé Nast Traveler — provide personalized advice for pain relief and prevention. Aesthetic medicine is also available with treatments like baby botox and NaturaPeel — a quick laser peel that renews the skin without downtime, leaving it smoother and rejuvenated.
Daily activities to strengthen body and mind
To complete the experience, Longevity offers a daily program of free activities, ranging from yoga and pilates to guided meditation, workshops, and nature walks, encouraging mindful movement and emotional balance. These practices transform the stay into a genuine ritual of comprehensive health.

More than just a hotel, the Longevity Health & Wellness Hotel is a true sanctuary for those seeking a healthy and balanced lifestyle in a natural and sophisticated setting, with attentive and warm service. The hospitality of the team, the quality of the facilities, and the richness of the experiences make this resort a must-visit destination in the Algarve and for anyone who values health and wellness in all its dimensions.
