Set amidst almost 2,000 acres of rolling hills and pine woodlands and overlooking a tranquil estuary, this refined hotel has a large serene sandy beach which lies beyond a beautiful lagoon with views over the wetlands of the Ria Formosa national park.

You will find peace, seclusion and exclusivity complemented by discreet service, elegant accommodation and a fine range of sporting activities. It is a golfer’s paradise with four golf courses within the estateand countless nearby courses rated among Europe's best.

There’s plenty to keep you occupied in the form of an indoor and outdoor heated pool, a spa which specialises in rejuvenating and anti-stress programmes and a gym.Tennis, mountain bikes, water sports and horse riding are also available.

Nature plays a key part at the hotel and much thought has gone into environmental policies in the design of the resort. We recommend taking a nature walk to the private section of the beach or visiting the neighbouring marshes of the reserve to see the abundant wildlife.

Think of the Algarve in Southern Portugal and most people think of its endless beaches and fabulous climate, which is mild in winter and yet cooled by sea breezes in the heat of summer.

However there is much more to the Algarve than just sun and sea. It has a unique charm which derives from the warmth of its people, its Moorish influence and the rich diversity of its majestic landscapes.

Portugal’s beautiful coastlines are characterised by miles of superb sandy beaches, pretty fishing villages with winding narrow streets and some of Europe’s best golf courses. Further inland you will find idyllic white-washed Moorish towns that shimmer in the sunlight over olive and orange groves and brightly coloured, verdant hillsides.

The area is home to some of Europe’s most established luxuryresorts which have excellent facilities and settings. A haven for sports enthusiasts, you can enjoy all manner of activities from golfing on the championship golf courses to sailing, surfing and water-skiing to a day at the world class tennis clubs. If you want to take some time out to enjoy some Portuguese culture you will find it in abundance in the pretty town of Tavira with its Roman Bridge or Lagos with a historic centre surrounded by 14th century walls.

Head further north to Lisbon, a vibrant and welcoming city with a vast amount of culture to experience. Tucked away from the main Atlantic  coast line, it enjoys a temperate climate and is home to some beautiful hotels.
