Explore the Algarve and surround yourself with nature with these 13 incredible hotels

It’s the perfect holiday destination

A one of a kind place: welcome to the Algarve! Portugal’s southernmost region, and one of the most popular vacation destinations in Europe! The area is blessed with a sublime coastline and some of the loveliest beaches in the world! Many of Algarve’s natural areas are protected and considered a world heritage by UNESCO. Here, you will enjoy hot, dry summers and short, mild winters. And, of course, warm sea temperatures and gentle winds add to its charm.

A land of contrasts able to appeal to a wide range of tourists. For instance, the popular and more developed central region offers lively coastal resorts, first-rate tourist amenities, and some of Portugal’s best golf courses. While, further east, a string of sandbar islands and lagoons form part of a beautiful and protected natural park. Over to the west, you will see a different Algarve, wilder and more remote, a place to escape the crowds and where surfers seek communion with the restless Atlantic Ocean.

On your next trip to the Algarve, make sure that you book a room or a suite at one of these seafronts and exquisite hotels to ensure a calm and well-deserved vacation:
