A soothing mountain escape

Set in the Serra de Monchique, Monchique Resort and Spa swaps beach bustle for mountain calm. You’re surrounded by rolling hills, with views towards the Algarve coast and easy access to walking routes, spa-town charm and scenic drives. Beaches are still within reach, but this one is all about breathing space.

Back at the resort, wellness is the headline act. The spa setting makes it ideal for proper switch-off time, while the wider resort brings suites, peaceful spaces and mountain-view lounging. It’s a strong choice if you want the Algarve with a calmer, greener, grown-up feel.

Find out more about Monchique

Monchique may be inland, but who needs the coast when you're surrounded by transfixing peaks in one of Portugal's most peaceful regions. Choose a holiday to Monchique and you'll discover a side of the Algarve that often goes uncovered, but offers ravishing rewards. 

Ringed by the forested Serra de Monchique mountain range, the pretty little town is beloved for its handsomely coloured, cobbled streets and tranquil central square, bedecked with fountains and rock rose blooms. But charming as the town is, it's the majestic mountains that deserve your attention. Explore Monchique's hiking trails,  bike down thrilling trails or spend a day spotting the rare birds that make the fragrant pine, orange, eucalyptus, oak and cork trees their homes. 

Whether it's on account of the mystic waters of the nearby Caldas de Monchique - discovered by the Ancient Romans and reputed to have healing properties - or simply Mother Nature's restorative touch, one thing's for sure: you'll feel refreshed and reinvigorated after a holiday in Monchique.
