Portugal is a country of remarkable beauty, rich history, warm people, vibrant culture, and timeless hospitality. Located at the westernmost edge of Europe on the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula, it has in recent years become a favorite destination for Georgian travelers. Today, we turn to a small yet enchanting town on the Portuguese Riviera: Cascais. Once a fishing village, it was transformed in the late 1800s when the King of Portugal made it his summer retreat. Soon after, elegant palaces were built, a historic town center emerged, and Cascais became one of the country’s most iconic destinations.
Standing proudly in this extraordinary setting is EVOLUTION Cascais-Estoril, a four-star hotel that offers five-star services. With its dynamic concept and cutting-edge approach, EVOLUTION captivates trendsetters, modern travelers, and locals alike. It blends ideal workspaces, exclusive meeting and event rooms, restaurants, and bars, creating a perfect balance of lifestyle and leisure.
The hotel’s signature concept infuses every stay with energy, making the EVOLUTION experience unforgettable. Contemporary, digital, cosmopolitan, and alive with a sense of movement, the hotel’s very name reflects its ethos: an ideal place for those who embrace a modern way of life. And yes, even pets are welcome.
From the moment you arrive, self check-in technology greets you, setting the tone for a seamless, vibrant stay. On the ground floor, The Kitchen restaurant serves dishes crafted from fresh ingredients, offering flavors to please every palate.
Another highlight is The Living Room & The Patio, a fresh dining concept where guests can enjoy food and drinks around the clock. For those on the go, the hotel’s Grab&Go service makes life even easier.
The rooftop is home to The Upper Deck, a spectacular restaurant-bar and pool with sweeping panoramic views over Cascais. Here, live music and DJ sets create an unforgettable atmosphere every day.
On the sixth floor, Wellness by SAYANNA awaits, combining a spa, fitness center, indoor pool, treatment rooms, sauna, steam baths, and sensory showers — all with enchanting sea views.
Each of the hotel’s 133 rooms and suites includes a private balcony overlooking the ocean, with a dining space and sun loungers.
