This Hideaway is located on the north side of São Miguel, the main island of the Azores. The small-scale luxury eco resort is right by the best surfing beach on the island, is spacious and has something for everyone. Whether you’re here with your family: two-bedroom villas for more space; or just the two of you: wonderfully quiet studios with a private garden, a Jacuzzi or a shared pool, it’s all possible. The architecture is beautiful and perfectly integrated into the natural environment. The earthy colours reflect the volcanic soil of the island and make it a unique hotel.
5-star luxury bang on the beach! You will find it at this Hideaway in Portimão, Portugal.
The main building exudes the atmosphere and grandeur of the past when a Portuguese businessman, made rich by the fish and canning industry, used to live with his family in this house and the interior was the setting for decadent parties and famous guests. Today, it is a haven for the luxury traveller and everything is done here to pamper you.
How fairy-tale like is this Hideaway… nature and style go hand in hand here. The colours are subdued, there are cool (vintage) finds and there is space… lots of space! I had my mind set on this hidden spot on the Costa Vicentina – the far western part of the Algarve (and Alentejo) on the Atlantic coast – for already quite some time. The surroundings are truly an undiscovered part of Portugal. This 27-hectare estate with 4 apartments and 3 rooms is a true Hideaway for nature lovers and for those who look for tranquility!
Upon entering, I have a flashback and I think for a moment that I am entering a riad in Marrakech… not surprising because the Moorish influences are omnipresent in my favourite Olhão! Tucked away in one of the narrow streets filled with white cubist houses you will find this beautiful Hideaway. The big surprise awaits upstairs: the roof terrace… an inviting small swimming pool, a lovely lounge terrace and the most spectacular view over the roofs of Olhão and the sea!
