Hotel description
Nestled in between the small picturesque city Olhão and the Ria Formosa coast, a nature preserve whose beaches are famous world-wide, the Real Marina Hotel & Spa offers luxurious wellness at the highest level, with a distinctly friendly and competent staff.
Wellness: Thalasso spa, sauna and fitness
The hotel’s spa leaves no wellness wish unfulfilled. Thalasso practices guarantee relaxation as well as a large variety of individual treatments, from shiatsu to anti-aging procedures. Highlights include special treatments for problems such as nicotine addiction, rheumatism, stress or back pain. A fitness center is available, as well as a beautiful sauna, jacuzzi and Turkish bath. The pièce de résistance is a heated outdoor pool on the second floor with a view on the sea.
Luxury: Marina chic at the 5 star level
When it comes to the building’s decor, the Real Marina Hotel displays impressive stylistic command. The atmosphere is upscale, with a touch of the sixties’ aura: the lobby and reception areas are a radiant, classic golden-brown, while the "Bar do Real" is dominated by sedate red tones. Spacious rooms with white-blue pillows recall the Marina that gives the hotel its names, and the suites are fashionably colored in gleaming white and earthy brown tones. All accomodations offer luxurious marble and slate baths and are sound-protected, ensuring an atmosphere that is not only luxurious but also intimate.
Food & Drink: Italian breakfast and gourment cuisine
Breakfast is particularly substantial, offering fresh fruits, champagne and coffee, with the additional option of ordering mocha or cappuccino. The restaurant serves international 5-star cuisine. A must-try: roasted octopus with clove oil and cardamom.
Athletics & Leisure: Bathing and swimming in a nature preserve
From the pier directly in front of the hotel, guests can travel to the nearby Ria Formosa nature preserve, which offers travels marvelous beachs and views nearly undisturbed by tourism. At the end of the 15-minute boat ride, an unforgettable experience awaits on one of the last protected beach landscapes of Portugal. Those who prefer to stay put can enjoy a view of the ocean from the hotel pool or order a cocktail in the tastefully designed lounge.
