Looking for a different perspective on Porto? Then this Local Hideaway is a must! After all, here you won’t be staying in the old centre but across town on the banks of the Douro River. You’ll find the old port cellars here in Gaia, and you’ll be in the authentic fishing village of Afurada in no time. The beaches of the Atlantic Ocean are just around the corner. This trendy design hotel is a lovely place with very spacious rooms (with kitchenette!) and flats.
A hidden gem, adults only, in the lovely town of Boliqueime… this small-scale boutique hotel meets the Local Hideaways wishes. Only 7 rooms, a pittoresque courtyard where a delicious dinner is served in the summer months and brunch in the other months. Beautiful art by Meinke Flesseman (a personal fave) decorates the walls. Boliqueime is a lovely nice town in the Central Algarve with authentic restaurants/bars and a few great shops.
There is a new kid in town…. A fantastic small-scale Hideaway located on Lisbon’s most beautiful square. Off the beaten track, local life and great restaurants, and within no time – walking distance – you’ll find the tourist highlights.
There’s another new kid in town…. This hideaway is perfect for foodies! Hidden among centuries-old olive trees and cork oaks in the heart of the Alentejo, you’ll find a top restaurant where you can also stay overnight, how convenient. Indulge your taste buds with a refined menu where the flavours of the Alentejo take centre stage. You will be immensely pampered here by the friendly and capable staff and the matching wines are the best gems from the region. Then roll right into your super comfy bed, the rooms are gorgeous and furnished with the finest local deco items. In the morning, you wake up to the sound of the birds… if the weather is nice, take a refreshing dip in the pool before breakfast. What a wonderful place, a real treat! Tip: take the train from Lisbon and let the enchanting landscape of the Alentejo glide past you. Évora is just around the corner, also highly recommended!
