Luxury Holidays At Vidago Palace

Vidago Palace is an award-winning member of 'The Leading Hotels of the World' and set in an idyllic location within the verdant Vidago Park in the pretty spa town, Vidago. Opened in 1910, this luxurious, stately property – commissioned by King Carlos I – offers guests a taste of the legendary Belle Epoque era and was originally built to entice wealthy international travellers of the time to visit Vidago and experience the health benefits of the local mineral water. Embracing tradition and modernity to stunning effect, the characterful, sympathetically restored, retreat now boasts a contemporary spa offering thermal treatments, beautifully decorated dining venues serving gourmet Portuguese cuisine and a championship-level, eighteen-hole, golf course set within its gloriously peaceful grounds, along with a collection of comfortable, individually designed, guest rooms and grand suites. Perfect for couples wishing to enjoy a sophisticated stay with plenty of interesting things to see and do locally in nearby towns and slightly further afield in the famous Douro Valley, Vidago Palace also welcomes children of all ages and provides a programme of activities and golf instruction for them during the summer and festive seasons.
