The ‘heart’ of an organism beats with what most identifies it. From it comes the vital energy to make all the parts of the body work. The Oasis Bar, the heart of the resort, is home to precious nectars. 

Luxury hotels embrace traditions. Traditions such as discretion and closeness: they address us by name but do not intrude. Traditions like lounging, in spaces shared by all, yet making you feel at home. The Oasis Bar stands as the central gathering point at Vila Vita Parc, day and night, where we are welcomed and bid farewell, but, above all, where we indulge in quality time, moments to relax—a true luxury in today's fast-paced world.

Here, the team of mixologists and cigar specialists will make you feel special. This is where the vital energy flows, and the ‘vibe’ of service, elegance and luxury permeates the entire resort. Joaquim Veras, the Head of Bars at Vila Vita Parc, even asserts that the Oasis embodies the values of Vila Vita Parc: “lifestyle, excellence, top performance, perfect timings, impeccable service.”

When you enter this space, you experience a distinct feeling: confronted with drinks meticulously chosen for their quality and, in many cases, their exclusivity. Some are selected for their rarity, setting apart this bar from others. Take, for instance, the Louis XIII Cognac by Rémy Martin and its extensive range of Magnum and Jeroboam bottles. Vila Vita Parc proudly bears the gold plaque certifying its status as a Fortress Louis XIII, ensuring an intriguing portfolio of this exceptional nectar. In addition to the plaque, ‘the’ bottle, referred to by the brand as a decanter, is prominently displayed: The Mathusalem Louis XIII. Only 50 of these crystal pieces are crafted each year for the entire world. Housing 6 litres of the precious liquid born in the vineyards of Cognac Grande Champagne, it encapsulates the terroir and years of expertise from the historic cellars. Truly, it is a cognac that transcends time, creating a timeless moment, an emotional journey, a unique experience with every sip.

Do the values of both brands align?

“At Rémy Martin, family values take precedence, and this is something palpable at Vila Vita. The entire family is present, spanning generations, a sentiment cherished by Maison Rémy Martin, as epitomized in one of Louis XIII's mottos: 'Think a century ahead'.”

“The highlight of this partnership was the installation of the exclusive cabinet, Library Louis XII, the only one displayed in the country, featuring a 6-liter decanter. There are solely four more of these in the entire Europe.  At the same time, we held the Kings' Dinner in the wine cellar for exclusive guests."
