The Vila Foz Hotel & SPA, a member of Design Hotels, is an icon of luxury and design located in the prestigious Foz do Douro district of Porto. Housed in a majestic 19th-century palace, it offers a unique experience that combines historical opulence with contemporary elegance, all with a spectacular view of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a sanctuary of quietness and refinement, ideal for those seeking the tranquility of the coast without giving up proximity to the center of Porto.

The rooms and suites are the pinnacle of comfort, many with private balconies overlooking the ocean, offering an unparalleled view and the relaxing sound of the waves. Every space is a tribute to the region's maritime heritage, ensuring a tailor-made luxury stay.
Vila Foz is an exceptional gastronomic destination, hosting a Michelin-Starred restaurant offering signature cuisine based on fresh Atlantic and terroir products.

The attention to quality and presentation makes every meal a memorable culinary event, with the possibility of dining while admiring the ocean panorama, adding a touch of magic to the experience.
The SPA is a sanctuary dedicated to wellness, inspired by its proximity to the ocean. It offers an indoor pool, sauna, Turkish bath, and a selection of holistic treatments using marine elements. This space has been designed to promote deep relaxation, transforming the stay into a true health and beauty retreat. The care of the body and mind is at the center of the experience, in an environment of serene luxury and absolute privacy.
