Henry the Navigator, credited for the early development of European exploration and establishment of many trade routes to continents including Africa, Asia and South America sent many of his voyages of discovery from nearby Lagos, just 5 minutes away from where the Cascade Hotel and Resort now stands.

The Cascade Hotel and Resort has been sensitively developed and painted in the beautiful, traditional, warm natural colours of the area, tones of pale terracotta, ochre and pale yellow, reflect the colours of the cliffs and blend in harmony with the landscape. The hotel design itself breaks with the recent trend of high white modern architecture straight corridors and uniform rooms and instead reflects a blend of historic Roman and Moorish styles, just two stories high with quirky, stylish and individual features.

Unique decor has been introduced in the furnishing and decor of the rooms. Each reflects the continents of Henry’s discoveries, Africa, Asia, South America and Europe. These generously proportioned rooms are adorned with fabrics and furnishings showcasing the highlights of each, from the warm muted tones of Africa’s savannahs, to the bright splashes of colour that pay tribute to South America’s vibrant personality. Sumptuous natural stone bathrooms are complete with under floor heating, bath, showers with a rainfall showerheads, double vanity units with illuminated mirrors, towels and bathrobes, hairdryer, beach towels and telephone. Even these are created in the unique style of the continents they represent, each with the unique feature of a glass wall which keeps the bathroom open to the room and terrace or balcony with pull down shutters should privacy be required. Where else can you book a room of a such style and elegance that reflects your current mood or taste?

Every small detail has been considered for the comfort and well being of the guest, from the high quality brands that are used in the furnishings, such as 'Porchanosa' tiling in the bathrooms to more personal luxuries like L’occitane sensorial natural skin, hair and body care products, to create feelings of wellness and wellbeing.
