What to expect
Água Hotels Riverside is on the Arade at Parchal, not on Ferragudo’s waterfront square or Praia da Rocha. Its architecture incorporates features of an old canning factory, and accommodation includes hotel rooms, suites and studios.
The riverside pools, restaurant and spa give the property a relaxed setting away from the beachfront resorts. It is useful for travellers combining Ferragudo, Portimão and the Lagoa area, provided they recognise that the river location involves separate trips to the main beaches.
Planning your stay
- Actual locality: Parchal, in Lagoa municipality; Ferragudo is the nearest destination-guide association.
- A river view should not be interpreted as direct access to a swimming beach.
