Mudar para Melhor – The stars behind the scenes of hospitality

It was with great pride that our General Housekeeper, Paula Henriques, was invited to an episode of the program “Muda para Melhor”, by Fátima Lopes, to talk about all the challenges, functions and importance of House Keeping in Hotels.

Kudos to our dear Paula, we are proud to have you with us every day!

First underwater exhibition in Portuguese maritime territory

Santa Eulália Beach receives underwater exhibition

Starting in May, Praia de Santa Eulália will host the first underwater exhibition in portuguese maritime territory. 

The works were created by Vhils from pieces coming from EDP’s deactivated thermoelectric power stations in order to generate a new artificial reef. They will be submerged at a depth of about 12 meters and will only be visited by qualified divers.    

The installation will have no negative impact on the ecosystem, representing an environmental asset that will contribute positively to the development of the local ecosystem. 

The EDP Art Reef was developed with the support of entities such as the Municipality of Albufeira, Turismo de Portugal and CCMar (University of the Algarve), and validated by the Directorate General of Natural Resources and the Portuguese Environment Agency, as well as other competent entities.

Starting in May

Location: Santa Eulália Beach, Albufeira, in front of the Grande Real Santa Eulália Resort & Hotel Spa
Free | Only visitable by divers
Vhils, artistic name of Alexandro Farto, is an urban artist known for his public murals and art installations.

“Reciclar é Alimentar” Project

At Real Hotels Group we integrate social and environmental concerns into our daily operations, so the involvement in the “Reciclar é Alimentar” Project comes very naturally.

We are proud to thank our employees at Grande Real Santa Eulália Resort & Hotel Spa and at Real Marina Hotel & Spa, who recycled 241 kg of Nespresso capsules during 2021, and contributed to a global donation of 256 ton of rice to the Banco Alimentar Contra a Fome.

The “Reciclar é Alimentar” Project was born in Portugal as a way to reuse coffee grounds and has already been replicated in several European countries. When you deliver your capsules for recycling, a Nespresso partner separates the sludge from the aluminum. The aluminum follows the recycling line and is integrated into new objects and the sludge integrates an agricultural compound that is used in rice fields, in Alcácer do Sal. This rice is later purchased by Nespresso and donated to the Food Bank Against Hunger.

It is part of our hotel spirit to take care of people and places. With attitude, commitment, and passion we will create a better world.

Jobs for Ukraine

AHP has been monitoring the serious situation in Ukraine and has launched, as the Associates know, the SOS Ukraine initiative, through which, and thanks to the generosity of the national hotel industry, we have delivered goods where they are most needed.

Because we want to help more and we know that employment is essential for all those who choose our country as a refuge, AHP launched the 1st AHP Job Fair: JOBS FOR UKRAINE, an event that will allow refugees from Ukraine, who are residing in the Lisbon region, have access to job opportunities.

This is an experimental event, launched within the scope of the HOPES Programme, so it will be limited in size and to the Lisbon region, in this first edition.

It will take place at the Hotel Real Palácio on the 1st of June 2022.

Maxime Comedy Club is back to Maxime

The Maxime Comedy Club is back at Maxime, from November 13th, for the liveliest nights in Lisbon.

Curated by comedian Guilherme Duarte, comedy nights with unlikely hosts and established or emerging comedians are back on Maxime’s stage.

Maxime Restaurante-Bar, in partnership with the humorist Guilherme Duarte, returns to have comedy nights with the Maxime Comedy Club.

In this new season of comedy, where anything can happen, you’ll be able to watch moments of comedy with unlikely hosts, established and emerging comedians who will present new and first-hand jokes.

The premiere is scheduled for November 13th (ALREADY SOLD OUT), at 09:30pm, on a night that will feature comedian Vasco Elvas – Fala Barato, who when he told his family that he wanted to make a living from comedy, they called him a Fala Barato. Well, Vasco Elvas lives up to this name and brings together some of his favorite comedians (just to convince them that he says these things, but didn’t it work?) for a stand-up test show, where he’ll talk about all for the modest sum of ten euros. Cheap, isn’t it?

If you didn’t get tickets for the first session of Vasco Elvas, he already has a new date on January 27th, 2022.

If you prefer another type of mood, on December 2nd and 3rd at 9:30 pm, there is “Psychotherapy” with Joana Gama. There is a fact that is not known by the public in general (neither the average), that was Joana Gama who invented podcasts. She was sitting under an apple tree, an mp3 fell on top of her and sound was made. And, therefore, nothing like taking advantage of a brilliant idea, which is to make a live podcast, and this opportunity not only to sell some tickets, but also to feed the Psychotherapy podcast. Maybe Joana has had enough of talking to herself or maybe she just wants to be looked by people while she talks. Anything is possible when the soul is not I don’t know what.

Guilherme Duarte, the comedian responsible for curating the Maxime Comedy Club, says:
“The Maxime Comedy Club is coming back. After what happened (the pandemic, I don’t know if you’ve heard?) we’ll be back with the comedy nights we’ve always used to you. No restrictions, neither sanitary nor humorous. I’m still responsible for the curatorship, but actually I don’t do much other than send some bitaites to those who really work to make these nights happen. There will continue to be open mic space for beginners in this world of comedy, deluded that this is even a good life, and big names on the line, as well as the possibility of big unexpected surprises every night. At a time when more comedy clubs and stand-up spaces are emerging in Lisbon and the rest of the country, it is important to invest in these spaces to keep the stand-up alive and present and to have spaces for comedians to test new jokes and evolve every time most. I said the word “spaces” too many times, I’m sorry.”

During the shows, and to overcome the dry jokes, you can have a beer or a cocktail. And if the munchies hit it, there’s also a special Maxime Comedy Club menu. The annoying thing is that it’s not for free, but the prices are good.

Admission to the shows is €10 and tickets are for sale at Ticketline. The new dates of the shows will be informed on social networks and regular channels, as they are confirmed.

Join our Instagram and keep an eye out for the poster of upcoming issues.
Recalling the past and reinventing the future, Maxime Restaurante-Bar continues to be a reference comedy space in Lisbon, signed by Guilherme Duarte and Nuno Pires, produced by SETLIST.
