Located in Albufeira, one of Portugal’s most sought-after resort towns, Alamos is a stone’s throw from pristine beaches and stunning shorelines. The resort focuses on nature and a vegetarian and locally sourced diet, and its secluded and private atmosphere is perfect for adult travellers looking for uninterrupted serenity. Natural accents such as wicker, wood, and cotton and a colour scheme of tans, whites, and greys all give Alamos a bohemian vibe that will make guests feel calm and at home.

The intimacy of the eight-room retreat allows travellers to feel connected to the surrounding nature of the Algarve without any of the faff travellers may endure at a large-scale hotel. Alamos Retreat is worth its weight in gold due to its close proximity to beaches, golf courses, and hiking trails.
