OVERVIEW

The 5 star Real Marina Hotel & Spa in the Algarve is adjacent to Olhão Marina and overlooks the Ria Formosa National Park. Known as one of the seven natural wonders of Portugal, the hotel provides easy access to the Ria Formosa landscapes and to a waterway leading to the area's beaches and islands. There is typical resort style architecture at the hotel, with some rooms and their balconies overlooking the outdoor pool and its sundeck.

The hotel’s on-site spa, pools and restaurants give little reason to ever leave, although if you do decide to venture into Olhão and beyond, you will find white sand at Barril Beach and on Culatra Island. Faro, the region's largest city, and an area full of historic and modern venues, is just 10 km away. Whether you want to do some shopping or explore a museum, Faro offers a good selection of activities.

WHO IS IT GREAT FOR?

Visitors recommend Real Marina Hotel & Spa for couples because of its quiet location, high end restaurants and abundance of transport methods throughout the area. Travellers say couples can make the most of the on-site facilities on offer.

LOCAL AREA AND THINGS TO DO

Real Marina Hotel & Spa sits just across from Olhão Marina, where the area opens up for travellers as ferry services run from here to the many nearby islands. Some are so secluded they can only be reached by boat, making their quiet beaches a perfect place get away from it all and relax.

Nature lovers can go on a birdwatching tour in the Ria Formosa coastal lagoon. And inland they can also enjoy hiking up Cerro de São Miguel, the hill behind the hotel, although you can also drive up it to admire the views.
