Surrounded by a little garden, Vila Lido is situated right at the seaside overlooking
Praia da Rocha, one of Portugal's most beautiful beaches, and next to the old fortress,
Santa Catarina, located above the new marina.
In the Middle Ages the fortress was guardening the estuary of the river Arade where ships had access to Silves.
20 km. up the river, and once the capital of the Arabs.
Praia da Rocha, flanked by the rocky cliffs so typical of the Algarve, offers many
nature walks, all types of water sports, and within a radius of 20 km. various excellent
golf courses. In the vicinity there are good restaurants, bars, shops and a casino.
