View of the hotel
“This five-star boutique hotel on the River Guadiana occupies a renovated 1920s building. The colonial-style interior design nods to the hotel's heritage; the prettiest suites have a French balcony and living space. Enjoy views from the rooftop terrace or at the beach club. A stately luxury hotel.”

Hotel review

Sitting on the eastern edge of the Algarve, Vila Real de San António is often overlooked by summer visitors to the coast. The Guadiana River runs along the town forming a natural barrier with Spain; the river gives life to verdant plant life on its banks, making it a picturesque holiday location. Grand House Algarve is a beautiful heritage hotel that sits right on the marina, in the heart of the historic town and close to natural parks and pretty beaches. The grandeur of the 20th-century building has been preserved in its renovation, and the beautiful, light-filled suites have an aristocratic feel. The hotel offers a range of luxury facilities, both on-site and at the private beach club. The beach restaurant is a particular delight, serving fresh seafood dishes and signature cocktails which you can enjoy on a sunlounger looking out over the sea; a hotel deserving of its five stars.
