The region is full of beautiful beaches and is one of the world’s premier surfing destinations.
The Development
World-renowned designer and architect Philippe Starck designed the Royal Óbidos Resort. It comprises a five-star hotel with spa, meeting and conference facilities. The centrepiece of the resort is a world-class golf course designed by the legendary Severiano Ballesteros.
