Arraial Ferreira Neto, Industrial heritage hotel in Santa Maria, Portugal

The Arraial Ferreira Neto complex spans across a walled area with two entrance gates, featuring organized streets and squares for residential purposes.

Built in 1943 after maritime conditions destroyed the previous structure, this facility supported tuna fishing operations and housed 150 fishing families.

The site maintains a thematic museum displaying traditional fishing equipment and methods, preserving the memory of Portuguese tuna fishing practices.

The hotel contains 157 rooms, 5 suites, a restaurant, and provides direct access to both maritime routes and land transportation connections.

Engineer Sena Lino designed this autonomous urban complex with separate industrial and residential zones, incorporating traditional materials with modern construction techniques.
