It was in 2017 that the beginnings of the Do Agua Boa project appeared. Indeed, it is during a quad bike ride that Philippe and Monique literally fall in love with this country and this region.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After more than two years of questioning and research in vain, it is finally in 2018 that parents and children ( Monique, Philippe, Camille and Nathan) discover a rare pearl in the heart of the Portuguese country. It is therefore in an area of 23 hectares, one hour from Lisbon, nestled between pines and cork oaks that the family decides to install their luggage there to develop tourist activities. At that time, the land and the buildings present were in ruins. An Irish couple had invested all their savings there to create a hospital for horses, but, unfortunately, due to a lack of time and resources, their project ended up falling apart and sold their property to the Hoyois family. .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At first, the Do Agua Boa project was not clear in the family's mind. The latter shared the desire to build a second main house abroad but was far from the idea of building a tourist area there ... So the main objective remained to simply enjoy the sweetness of life Portuguese, the relaxing calm of the surrounding nature to escape the grayness and the incessant stress of Belgium.
