Things to Do
The Old Course – golf course – is just across the road from the hotel.
The Cerro da Vila is just under a mile from the hotel. This is a museum about a Roman villa. You can walk round the remains of the house (mostly ground level).
The Marina is just over a mile away. There are plenty of shops, cafes and bars in the area.
You can rent boats in the marina.
The sandy beach is around 1.5 miles from the hotel.
