About this property

Luxury Palace with a Chocolate Factory

Live in a Luxury Palace, relax and have fun

The Royal Cocoa Palace, built in 1895, is located in the historical city centre of Montemor-o-Novo, a town immersed in tradition where the glamour, infused with the divine fragrance of chocolate, can be sensed in the gardens and halls of this illustrious palace. You will taste the premium pralines and visit the Royal Cocoa Co., the first chocolate factory worldwide that operates inside a palace.

Montemor-o-Novo is a very quiet and peaceful location, allowing you to fully relax, take a walk in the city centre, ride a horse in the castle or enjoy the 12km ecotrail that begins 100m from the Palace. Nearby you may also go to a small zoo for kids, do jet ski, sky dive or just visit the Escoural Cave, the most ancient cave with rock paintings available to visit in Europe.

The Royal Cocoa Palace has a very spacious 8 en-suites, swimming pool, outdoor dining area, bbq, tennis table, fitness, steam bath, leisure room with music and pool table.
This is truly a gorgeous palace with amazing and luxury outdoor areas and large and beautiful indoor areas.

There are plenty of restaurants with a wide range of tasteful meals but you may also choose half or full board and be delighted with our exquisite main courses and desserts.

The Royal Cocoa Palace is sure to provide you with such unique holidays.
