Hotel Casa Palmela

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.
