ELEGANT ESCAPES<br />

from Thomson &<br />

<strong>The</strong> Essence of Porto Bay<br />

Peace & Tranquility<br />

Elegant Escapes are luxury hotels and<br />

resorts that shy away from the tourist trail.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’re chosen for their unspoilt scenery<br />

and give you a chance to sample the local<br />

way of life. Combine that with a relaxed<br />

atmosphere, and you’ve got something<br />

really special.<br />

Personal Service<br />

Sophisticated, luxurious and cosy, the hotels<br />

in this collection have paid real attention to<br />

the little details. Things like the quality of<br />

their service and the level of comfort in the<br />

bedrooms. Features that make them all<br />

4T or 5T calibre.<br />

Fine Dining<br />

Good food and world-class chefs are worth<br />

forking out for – and all our hotels have à la<br />

carte restaurants on site should you really<br />

want to splash out. Of course you can<br />

always step outside the gates for a real<br />

flavour of the place at a local eatery. So<br />

whether you go for half board, self catering<br />

or bed and breakfast, fine dining’s a cinch at<br />

an Elegant Escape.<br />

Pampering & Activity<br />

Each resort has a spa – a haven of tranquillity<br />

to escape to the real world. A place where hot<br />

stone massages and aromatherapy go hand<br />

in hand with well-known spa brands like<br />

Decléor. On the flip side, there are more<br />

energetic ways to unwind, like golf and<br />

countryside walks.<br />

A Romantic Retreat<br />

<strong>The</strong> Essence of<br />

Hotel Porto Santa Maria<br />

getting out and about and sea views come courtesy of the harbour.<br />

Mediterranean chic, the Vila Porto Mare Resort brings together the<br />

best of two hotels - Suite Hotel Eden Mar and the Hotel Porto Mare.<br />
