Hotel Casa Palmela

A luxurious countryside casa, designed for complete disconnection from a busy world

Pass through the grand gates of Casa Palmela and prepare to be utterly relaxed. You’ll approach the hotel along a long, vineyard-lined road, the rolling hills of Arrábida Natural Park on all sides. The serene white 18th-century house has been completely restored into a luxurious countryside casa, designed for complete disconnection from a busy world. 

Bedrooms and suites at Casa Palmela are light-filled and elegantly pastel-hued. Touches of charm reveal themselves. Here an exquisitely tiled ceiling, there a vase of blooms that complement contemporary floral fabrics. Many bedrooms have balconies overlooking the vineyards, or views over the hotel’s fragrant gardens. Long, leisurely breakfasts can be served on the terrace in the warm summer air. And dine with a dramatic mountain backdrop in the hotel’s atmospheric restaurant, Zimbral.

A stay at Casa Palmela is about total immersion in the surrounding countryside. Spend your days lounging by the inviting swimming pool or strolling through the estate. Trails snaking through the valleys are ripe for exploration by foot or on horseback, with Portuguese picnics and refreshing local wine. World-class golf courses, wineries and Arrábida’s undiscovered beaches are within touching distance. If that all sounds just a little too much hard work, the hotel’s ‘Slow Wellness’ area offers bespoke massage treatments to soothe away any thoughts of reality.
 

Enjoy your stay!

Warm Seas & Cool Wine

Warm seas and cool wine

The verdant green mountains of Arrábida Natural Park surround Casa Palmela, giving way to beautiful, secluded beaches. Hidden coves can be discovered within a short bike ride from the hotel, or hire a private boat and explore sleepy lagoons and secret caves from the sea. If you’d rather stay dry, enjoy a picnic of local cheese and wine among the soothing sounds of the cicadas and birdlife in the park.

Horse ride at Hotel Casa Palmela

In the saddle

A delightful experience in every way.

I can't speak highly enough of João and his colleagues in the restaurant. They were charming, attentive and knowledgeable about the food and the wine. Dinner there was an absolute pleasure. The hotel and its surroundings are delightful; our room (and the rest of the hotel) was spotless and comfortable. Read more[SPLIT]Read lessWalking through the surrounding cork forest was a delight.

Food And Drinks

Flagstone floors and mountain views make Zimbral an enticing space to dine. The terrace is perfect for al-fresco summer feasts, while a huge fireplace creates a cosy atmosphere in cooler months. The focus of Zimbral’s food is on classic local flavours and the finest farm-to-table ingredients.

Zimbral

Served Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Zimbral is the hotel restaurant served by our chef. Local delicacies specially thought with respect to quality and season are the basic concept. It is a very interesting room with its vaulted ceilings- three large windows to the terrace in the gardens of the house and is served by a large fireplace in the center. An undeniable great wine list is also available to complete a great experience.

Spot

Served Meals: Lunch During summer at lunch time- we offer light seasonal author meals- served in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.

Spa

A peaceful space hidden among the vineyards, Casa Palmela’s Slow Wellness spa offers bespoke therapies using natural ingredients from the local region. Soothing, refreshing, or hydrating: take your pick for a personalised treatment. Pilates and yoga classes take place outside in the warm sunshine. And after a long day’s hiking in the mountains, stretching therapies ease tired legs.
