Grande Real Villa Italia, Cascais Hotels
Luxury hotel in a former palace with stylish modern rooms, three restaurants, a pool, and a spa
Overview
Many of the palace’s details have been retained, and influential Portuguese interior designer Graça Viterbo has integrated them with a contemporary style. Spread across two wings, the modern and the original palace, the 120+ rooms and suites are quite spacious, with the smallest still being 388 square feet (36 sqm). All include marble bathtubs and showers and either sea or garden views. For a more traditional style, the Royal Penthouse in King Umberto II’s former living quarters includes antique furniture that captures an old-world elegance and a Jacuzzi and terrace that offer new-world comforts.
There are three on-site restaurants offering a mix of cuisine, including Portuguese and Italian. The standout, atmosphere-wise, might be Belvedere, the Italian restaurant up on the terrace, where you can enjoy a good meal with an even better view. The pool is a great place to relax, as it overlooks the Atlantic, although the spa might be the biggest highlight. Located in a massive space inspired by Roman bathhouses, the Real Spa Marine includes a sauna, steam room, and gym, and its treatments include thalassotherapy, hydrotherapy, and massages that use Portuguese ingredients to exfoliate your skin.
Hotel Information
Wifi – Check On RequestPortugal
From the seemingly never-ending festivals to the diverse range of cultures that have made Portugal their home over the centuries, to the simple but delightful culinary experiences, the vibrant heritage and cultural diversity of this country captivate travelers.
When is the best time to visit?
Portugal is a year-round destination, but if possible, travelers should aim to visit in the springtime when the almond blossoms and wildflowers cover the countryside.
Where should you go in Portugal?
Experience the traditional Alfama neighborhood of Lisbon before it will be absorbed by the rest of the bustling city’s culture, tour the ancient ruins of Sintra and historic Evora, walk along the bluffs of Europe’s most southwestern point at Cabo de São Vicente, and relax on the beaches of Ilha de Tavira.
How many days do I need?
There are too many destinations that are must-sees in Portugal to see the country in less than a week. At least 10 days is best.
Getting Around Portugal
Although smaller than neighboring Spain and France, distances in Portugal are still significant—traveling from Porto to Faro, for example, takes five hours by car. Flying is a quick and comfortable way to get between the country's major cities, with the largest airport being Lisbon Airport (LIS). Going by bus or train are also options here.
