Initiation Well in Quinta da Regaleira, Sintra, Portugal. I remember seeing this on the Curse of Oak Island when they visited it.

​

 

[govner1]

It is in Portugal but not a well

 

[pvpeacock]

It's not the QUINTA DA REGALEIRA?

[govner1]

This is in Braga.At the bottom is a church and even shops

That picture is definitely of the Initiation Well at Quinta de Regaleira, clearly got the same patterned floor as in the photo halfway down the page pvpeacock linked. Search might have lead you astray if you were looking for a site in Braga.

 

[govner1]

I believe you are correct . The internet seems to have had a brain fart! The photo I posted clearly says it’s a feature of the Church of Bom Jesus in Braga and describes the staircase!

So you are up

 

[govner1]

The symbol on the floor is supposed to be the Templar Knights. Cross

 

[pvpeacock]

Here you go.

It’s a lake though?

No. It's an ocean.

 

[govner1]

Caribbean or Southern hemisphere?

 

[pvpeacock]

Neither

Hawaii?

 

[Cheshire Cat]

If it’s an ocean then has to be a sheltered bay or the tide and waves would batter that hotel.

 

[pvpeacock]

Not Hawaii

Descanso Beach Club on Santa Catalina Island.

 

[pvpeacock]

Bingo! This was the site of a famous hotel back in the day that fell into disrepair and ultimately burned down. The Santa Catalina Island Company decided to upgrade the facility a number of years ago and it is quite nice now. Loon, you're up.
P.S. The view from Descanso looking toward Avalon and the Casino:
