It's easy to see why the site of the Grande Real Villa Italia Hotel and Spa was once the residence of Italy's King Umberto II. Overlooking the protected harbor of Cascais and minutes from Lisbon, the seaside property offers views of the stunning hills and castles of Sintra, while each room looks out on the Atlantic Ocean. The decor of each sumptuously appointed guest room is inspired by shades from the sea: blue and gray with just a hint of color. Each morning you will awaken to the sound of waves breaking on the beach, while each room offers stunning sunset views. The Real Spa Marine offers you every opportunity to completely renew, refresh and relax. A ten-page menu of treatment options focuses on therapies derived from the sea, including an algae body wrap and multiple seawater hydrotherapies. In between spa therapies, why not unwind with a round of golf? There's no shortage of options, with eight world-class courses within an hour of the Grande Real Villa Italia.
