Unique and wonderfully maintained property. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Short drive to town of Monchique and many amazing hiking options. Definitely recommend trying the PR9 hike which includes fantastic views and a really cool suspension bridge over a valley and river. Monchique is a nice change of pace from beach towns in the Algarve or the busy streets of Lisbon.

Relaxing in the highlands

It was very peaceful setting to spend three days just relaxing up in the Highlands. You definitely need some form to reach the hotel and if you want to eat out in the evening the nearest restaurant was about a 1/2 mile away. It was a bit too cool to use the pool, but it sure looked inviting.
