Algarve & Andalucia - Tapas, Walks & Sunsets

Experience the tranquil beauty of the Eastern Algarve, a hidden gem enjoying a serene, relaxed and unhurried lifestyle. Nestled close to the Spanish border and surrounded by plantations of fragrant orange and lemon trees, the Eastern Algarve is home to beautiful long sandy beaches and picturesque traditional Portuguese towns dotting the waterfront. 

Embraced by scent infused pine forests and gentle rolling hills, the picturesque beach towns of Monte Gordo or Tavira are your centre for the week, located close to the river Guadiana on the Portuguese-Spanish border. Stroll along the glorious sandy beaches to the seafront promenade filled with local restaurants, bars and shops. Take a refreshing dip in the turquoise sea, the water here is calm and the warmest in Portugal as Monte Gordo’s beaches are sheltered from the cooler Atlantic winds.

The hotel has wonderful spa facilities and is just a stone’s throw away from the beach and a short walk away from the main streets of town, perfect for exploring the Algarve and Andalucia.

Throughout the holiday you'll explore quaint seaside towns such as Altura and Olhao. Spend a day visiting beautiful Tavira and its heavenly island, where you'll indulge a delicious lunch. A boat takes you across the border to Ayamonte in Spain for a traditional tapas lunch. Glide through the labyrinth of islands of the tranquil Parque Natural da Ria Formosa by boat. Immerse yourself in the unique charm of this unhurried region, where relaxation meets cultural exploration.
