The Vicentina coast is an absolute gem of a place in South-West Portugal, with its wild and wonderful nature, making it a total paradise for hikers, cyclists, surfers and all you outdoor enthusiasts out there. Surrounded by all this beauty, I found a special Local Hideaway. This beautiful luxury hotel reflects nature in its design, with hushed architecture reminiscent of the clean lines and pisé construction of Morocco, as well as in its tasteful interior. Get ready for the perfect place to step back, still and let nature, wellness and tranquillity awaken your senses… slow travel to the max!
Liz, Alex and their young family were looking for a ‘slow living’ lifestyle in southern Portugal. They ended up in a lovely spot with a beautiful garden and a refreshing swimming pool, where they started a small B&B. It’s contemporary, but not aimed at hipsters or influencers; it’s for people who want to slow down and connect. The perfect place to discover the beautiful surroundings, or simply do nothing at all. A lovely Local Hideaway where Liz and Alex’s attention to detail makes you feel right at home.
A lovely Hideaway just outside Marrakech?! Here you have the best of both worlds… you are not far from the city (by taxi) and enjoy all the space, a lovely garden and a large heated pool! Rooms are situated in traditional lodges in the garden with contemporary décor and have plenty of privacy and space. Good restaurant with contemporary dishes, but traditional Moroccan cuisine is also represented. Staff are very friendly and helpful. In short, a lovely escape just outside busy Marrakech!
This Local Hideaway is a delightful retreat and a perfect base for exploring Marrakech. It is a true “home away from home” with a sustainable purpose. A beautiful garden, a lovely pool, good restaurant and super friendly staff are the fine extras! A Hideaway with a soul!
