The next national holiday can serve as an excuse for a short getaway to the Algarve, particularly in Vila Real de Santo António, especially for those looking for stays in the historic center and close to the border with Spain. According to the website, a night in the Algarve hotel can cost 60 euros per person during the Corpo de Deus holiday, thanks to a temporary promotional campaign.
The offer applies to the night from June 4th to 5th and applies to the Alfândega Classic Room, without breakfast included. The total cost of the stay is 120 euros per room, and it is possible to reach this price through a 40% promotion valid until 11:59 pm this Thursday, May 28th.
Holiday that changes every year
The Corpus Christi holiday has no fixed date on the calendar, and is always celebrated 60 days after Easter. This year, the date is June 4th, coinciding with a time of greater demand for short-term getaways.
The location of the guesthouse allows you to take advantage of both the urban environment of Vila Real de Santo António and quick access to the beaches of the eastern Algarve and the Spanish border.
Two buildings in the city center
The hotel unit is located in two buildings located in Praça Marquês de Pombal, considered the historic center of the city. The so-called Federal Revenue Building houses the reception and has 40 rooms.
On the other side of the square is the Church Building, which offers a further 17 rooms. It is worth noting that this space focuses on a more reserved atmosphere, maintaining a direct connection to the historic core of the Algarve city.
Among the elements highlighted by the unit is the existence of small swimming pools in both areas of the inn. According to the same source, the rooftop of the Customs Building includes a plunge pool overlooking the Guadiana River, the lighthouse and Spanish territory.
The Church Building also has a swimming pool integrated into the internal courtyard. This space was designed to provide a more peaceful and protected environment for guests.
Between beaches, salt marshes and golf
The location of the guesthouse also allows close access to several natural areas in the eastern Algarve. The website explains that the proximity to extensive beaches, golf courses, salt flats and the Castro Marim Sapal Natural Reserve is part of the unit’s main arguments.
The quick connection to Spain is also presented as an advantage for those who want to combine a stay in the Algarve with short trips across the border.
Breakfast focuses on local products
The gastronomic component follows the usual concept of the Pousadas de Portugal chain. According to the inn’s website, breakfast focuses on local products and options associated with a more balanced diet.
Other meals are prepared in an open kitchen, highlighted by a pink oven used for freshly baked goods. There is also an appreciation of regional gastronomy in the space’s daily offerings.
