a striking work of modern hotel architecture on par with some of the world’s recent best, with a winery, a fine restaurant…
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The estate sits tucked in the Montemor-o-Novo countryside, twenty minutes from the Roman ruins and medieval walls of historic Évora.
The rooms
Sky Suites feature retractable roofs for stargazing from bed, while local black slate and private patio fireplaces ground the interiors.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The outdoor infinity pool stretches along the lawn, looking straight out across the lake and surrounding vines.
The spa
The spa houses a heated indoor pool and sauna, with treatment rooms offering vinotherapy bodywork using vegan grape extracts.
At the table
Michelin-starred MAPA crafts tasting menus inspired by Portuguese spice routes, and Café da Viagem pours estate wines by the lake.
It is located in the heart of the Alentejo and extends around a central valley of vineyards, olive groves and a lake.
How it began
The master plan reinterprets traditional Alentejo agricultural compounds, clustering lime-washed structures around an organic vineyard and a working winery.
