The newly opened Villa Italia, once the home of King Umberto II of Italy, has been beautifully converted into a stylish and luxurious 5-star hotel and spa. Well located on the oceanfront in Cascais, this superb hotel is the ideal choice for those wishing to experience the diverse charms of this corner of Portugal. Guests can explore Lisbon and Sintra, sunbathe on the beaches of Cascais or Guincho or simply relax and enjoy the treatments of the luxurious spa on hand. For younger guests there is a children’s pool and club to keep them entertained.

The property has been divided into three distinct sections comprising of the original residence (Villa Italia), a central modern section (Grande Real) and a separate annexe (Villa d’Este). No expense has been spared in creating the design, decoration and modern amenities expected of such a luxurious hotel. The classically designed buildings, set within peaceful, well maintained gardens with large ocean view terraces and salt water pools, cannot fail to impress.
