    In the script you will begin to study the art and architecture of the region from the very beginning of your stay at the hotel, as many of the oak trees are located in historical buildings, monasteries, castles and palaces, which are famous for their rich history, and some of them are even included in the list of historical heritage of the country. Despite the fact that all of the postures have been restored and modernized, they are characterized by the same design and architectural style as the construction. If you arrive earlier than the official arrival time, you can just leave your belongings in the storage room.

    Not far from Faro are the ruins of an ancient Roman villa. Here you will not only discover the ancient Roman way of life in the area, but also get closer to the characteristic architectural direction, a special design with a peristyle. This place is a real treasure trove of new knowledge for connoisseurs of architecture. In addition to the villa itself, the visitors are attracted by the covered colonnade surrounding the entire open space of the patio, as well as interior details such as geometric and marine motifs in the decorative friezes adorning the inner courtyard of the room.
    The museum is closed on Mondays, but on the rest of the days you can visit it from 10.30 to 13.00 and from 14.00 to 18.30.
