Villa Xoania

You don’t have to be a golf lover to appreciate the location of Villa Xoania within the Praia del Rey Golf and Beach Resort. All the facilities are available for an extra cost, including a communal swimming pool, spa, gym, tennis court and clubhouse with café-bar. You can also get relaxing massages and hire bikes to take out for the day.

Praia del Rei Beach is just a 10-minute walk from the villa. With long stretches of sand, beautiful dunes and clear waters, it's a picturesque spot to enjoy an afternoon. There's also a large freshwater pond where birds like to gather. The waves tend to be quite strong here, making the sea mostly unsuitable for swimming. But you have your very own pool back at the villa to enjoy splashing about in.

The medieval town of Óbidos is around 25 minutes away and is one of the most attractive towns in the whole of Portugal. At its historic centre are fortified walls where you’ll find a maze of winding streets and a beautiful castle. Walk around the walls themselves for spectacular views down over the town and the pretty whitewashed houses with their terracotta roofs.

Also be sure to visit Porta da Vila, which was once the main gate into the town and which has been preserved to retain its beautiful features, such as the traditional Azulejo tiles on the walls. The 12^th-century Igreja de Santa Maria church is another must-visit site, with an impressive interior that features even more of the famous Portuguese blue and white tiles.

ABOUT THE SILVER COAST

The Silver Coast in Portugal, or Costa de Prata, is a stunning stretch of coastal towns on the western side of Portugal, neighbouring the Atlantic Ocean. The region remains largely unknown and therefore untouched by tourism, meaning those who do visit can bask in the extraordinary “silver” sand.

Another of the many reasons to love the Silver Coast in Portugal is its proximity to Portugal’s major cities. With Lisbon to the south and Porto to the north, the Silver Coast is well situated in between both of Portugal’s largest urban centres. At the same time, it is inexpensive, authentic, and relatively undiscovered.

The Silver Coast is home to some of the best beaches you’ll ever see in Portugal. Since it’s away from the main crowd of the country, the beaches here are wilder and more pristine. Also, being popular for fishing is a great place to try local cuisine and experience the culture.

The cuisine from the Silver Coast in Portugal is some of the finest that Europe has to offer and forms an integral part of the region’s culture. The area has a rich heritage, and tourists love the narrow, picturesque streets of the towns and villages that dot the countryside. The regional agriculture also adds an authentic touch, with numerous small farms, vineyards, windmills as well as fruit trees. Many local farmers grow soft fruits such as grapes, melons, pumpkins, and maize.
