This is a RURAL property, not a city hotel. This was my parents' week-end refugee spot. I moved here because of my children, 22 years ago because they love this place a lot. Since they were very little they used to spent all their vacation time here, at Vale da Silva. with grandpa and Granny. Living in an isolated Green Protected Area, in the middle of nowhere, is a permanent adventure! Here we have a simple, quiet & lovely life. And we love it. We have 4 pools, bikes, a nice restaurant where you can experiment Portuguese traditional Food (reserve in advance) and play tennis table, football in, read, listen to some music, drink a glass of wine. Vale da Silva Villas has lots of animals and a small lake. We are set 12 km from Aveiro, 10 km from Águeda and 8 km from Albergaria-a-Velha. You have a lot to visit if you which. We have lots of animals that walk freely. Our cats or our peacocks will pay you a visit for sure! If you do not like nature, being apart, nature or animals, think twice before booking.

I'm Isabel, 61. I used to be a newspaper director and at my 50 BD decided to change my life. I changed high hills to flip flops; mother of 2+2 kids, Paulo, my husband, a great companion that loves to build wooden houses and to cook but he is a police officer. We are easy going and nice people. We love nature and animals! We enjoy knowing people from other countries and our hobby is to travel around the world. We are against all kind of discrimination! We are gay friendly; we receive all the races and respect all religious and political opinions. So, if you do not like nature, animals or discriminate people sorry but this place is not for you! If you are good people, WELCOME!
