Property details
- Top-notch setting: A timeless beach resort in Portugal’s ever-popular Algarve, the five-star NAU Sao Rafael Atlantico is just steps from the heavenly golden sands of Sao Rafael Beach - often voted among Europe’s best beaches. The hotel is great for families, with plenty of things to do nearby, yet is equally geared towards couples - the spa offers a variety of couple’s treatments, there are romantic restaurants and bars to choose from, landscaped gardens to roam, and rooms and suites are beautifully appointed with all the desired amenities.
- Upscale dining: The hotel’s Seven Seas restaurant has a scenic setting amongst the attractive grounds and is open for magnificent buffet breakfasts and delicious dinners packed with locally inspired dishes – you can dine inside or head out onto the patio to eat under the stars. There’s also a beachfront bar with panoramic views and a menu of small plates and cocktails, and the seasonal Caspian Sea Bar is open during the day for drinks and snacks.
- Utmost relaxation: If the attraction of flopping onto Sao Rafael Beach wasn’t enough of a draw, the hotel’s Felicitas Spa Atlantico offers 1,800 square metres of indulgent relaxation space, as well as a lengthy menu of massages, therapies and treatments. The spa circuit is a watery delight of hydromassage pools, steam rooms, contrast showers and cold water plunges, and there is also an indoor pool and fitness centre.
NAU Sao Rafael Atlantico is parked on Portugal’s southern coast, less than 500 metres from Sao Rafael Beach. The closest airport is Faro International, about 40 minutes’ drive from the hotel.

Sao Rafael is a Blue Flag-certified beach, previously named the best in Portugal and the fourth-best in Europe.
