Located on the southern slope of Serra de Monchique, near the village of Casais, this fully equipped and fully operational Rural Tourism Hotel/Agro-tourism (evaluation 9.5) invites you to enjoy its idyllic landscapes. The agricultural property, run by the same family for four generations, was transformed in 2015 into a cozy hotel surrounded by almost two hectares of exuberant nature. The stone masonry house dates from the late XIX century. It was subject to a careful renovation, combining the original rustic design, the land's topography, and the surroundings to provide optimal conditions for high-quality agriculture-related tourism directly involved with nature. With a fabulous view over the coast, this estate consists of six suites with a covered terrace. All of them are unique due to the decoration and the floral perfume in each private garden. Here, the fragrances and flavors are more intense. The days are long-lasting while undergoing daily activities because the calendar follows the surrounding nature. It has an organic vegetable garden, an area for donkey breeding, orchards, wine tasting, and jam production. The property has a cozy and typically rural, yet refined, decoration. It comprises a living room with a fireplace, a kitchen, a breakfast room with a stunning mountain-view, an elevator connecting the two floors, a laundry room, a reception, and a room for wine and other tastings. The estate's location at an altitude of about 370 meters and about a twenty-minute distance from the town of Monchique combines the lush mountain range, breathtaking views, and hiking trails. With a high-quality tourist activity throughout the year to enjoy the typical or gourmet restaurants, the Caldas de Monchique Spa (the water has therapeutic properties and high alkalinity), and traditional products. It is a very sought-after area by a growing community of residents seeking that perfect connection with nature, but still near all the services and dynamics offered by Monchique, reinforced by the proximity to Portimão. Monchique features the highest point in the Algarve, Foia, where you can enjoy the beautiful landscape, stroll, have lunch, or even buy local handicrafts. It is also close to the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve, where the Formula 1 and Moto GP races take place.
