HOTEL FORTE S. JOÃO


HOTEL FORTE S. JOÃO

I found this awesome hotel in a small beach community called Vila do Conde, just 20 miles north of Porto.  It is an actual fort located right on the beach.  Check out their website.



This four star gemis not Gay owned or operated, but the staff is very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are around 100€ a night, which is expensive for Portuguese standards, but very well worth it and very class.

It is mostly active during spring and summer with several different activities, such as summer theme parties.  It also caters and welcomes wedding parties.




The Fort St. João is a charming hotel, fully decorated by architect Paulo Lobo. This hotel operates on a stronghold of the seventeenth century with spectacular views. It offers seven rooms which consist of living room and bedroom equipped with all amenities. The presidential suite is distinguished by generous spaces and isolation in relation to other dwellings. 




ESPLANADE RESTAURANT with the concept of cuisine from local market, which includes a ORIENTAL BAR,  SHISHA & Oyster Lounge, bar, cafeteria and reading areas. It is very suave and cozy and the food is very good with a large variety of fresh seafood.
