Walled fortress overlooking
the sea
Situated on the Monterreal
peninsula, this is one of the most unique Paradors; the building is mid-way
between a medieval fortress and seigniorial Gallegan architecture. It commands
an impressive viewpoint above the ocean within a walled enclosure. It is
protected by the sea and has a beautiful pine forest on either side.

|
|
The hotel has magnificent,
stylish rooms full of decorative features from different eras. Manorial
rooms and spacious bedrooms, many boasting spectacular sea views, make
up a grandiose interior along with its outstanding stone staircase in the
entrance hall.

Specialities and traditional
dishes - Excellent Moaña Veal
You have to try the fantastic
Gallegan cuisine offered by the Parador. Sea bass with razor clams in rapini
sauce, shell fish dishes, tarta de Santiago (Galician almond tart), filloas
(Galician pancakes), and Moaña veal. A total delight for the palate.

Unique Room: El
Mirador de la Virgen de la Roca
This is one of the brightest
rooms at this charming hotel with its five large west-facing windows providing
an impressive panoramic view over the mount housing the monument to La
Virgen de la Roca. Moving your gaze to the right, the area around Silleiro
Cape, the open water and the nascent present of the Cíes Islands
may be appreciated. The evenings are unique thanks to the play of light
and the murmur of the ocean whilst the sun sets slowly into the sea, producing
a light spectacular. Measuring over 90 square metres, there is a large
bedroom with a 2x2 m four poster bed, a private lounge and a large bathroom
with a hydro-massage bed. |
