In their search for the right place for their new life, Jack and Walter found a beautiful old building in Olhão (Eastern Algarve) where a notable doctor once lived with his family. After an intense renovation, they were finally able to open the doors of their fantastic hotel: an inspiring place where ten rooms, a roof terrace with a small pool, a coffee shop with the most delicious French pastries and a gallery guarantee a wonderful stay. Not to mention the breakfast… divine!!! A great addition to my beloved Olhão!
A famous French shoe designer opening a hotel in Portugal… it sounds a bit strange, doesn’t it?! But Christian Louboutin has loved coming to the west coast in the Alentejo below Lisbon for years and also has his own home there. So it was a logical step to unleash his creative brain on a new small-scale luxury hotel in authentic Melides.
He created a beautifully eclectic place where his love of art and travel come together in perfect balance. Of course, with every comfort and quality.
This Local Hideaway represents the Douro Valley at its best and is its personification. A feast for the senses and absolutely worth a stay. A fantastic wine estate, for connoisseurs, epicureans and outdoor enthusiasts. Combine your citybreak in Porto with trip to the Douro Valley and you have the best of both worlds!
Porto is ‘booming’ and more and more new hotels are popping up in the city. Like this ‘new kid in town’, a fantastic Hideaway in the middle of the old town and situated in an old soap factory. 28 rooms in different classes but all very spacious and stylishly decorated. You live like a local here as all rooms have a kitchenette. Garden with a swimming pool and spa completes this boutique city hotel. And then there are several weekly activities organised, befitting the hotel and free for hotel guests. What a nice addition! Here, a lot of thought has gone into what the contemporary city traveller considers important when staying. A wonderful Hideaway!
