This is a wonderful place. You would have little idea making the turn off the road towards Amarelo, only a few hundred meters away, that it is such a tranquil sanctuary. Beautifully designed in every way, wonderful pair of swimming pools, lovely landscaping, lots of quiet spots amid the trees and flowers to hang out on beds. It is run by a lovely very kind and friendly couple, Carmen and Filippe. They really care about the place, looking after it with great love. They are even considerate of the frogs who live around the spa pool, by avoiding chlorination that can harm the frogs. This means that the water may be a little green, which can upset some superficial urban types who expect sterility at the expense of the natural world. Good for Carmen and Filippe for standing up for nature. We stayed in Suite Barragen, a trio of rooms further down the hill facing a stunningly beautiful wooded gorge. Magical. If you do stay in one of those rooms, be aware that there is a jacuzzi tub in the floor at themed of the end facing the view - fine in the daytime, possible dangerous at night, so ask for the cover for the tub for safety reasons. There are also a couple of fantastic beaches very close by to the south : Praia do Almograve, and a short walk over the cliffs to the north, even more private : Praia do Brejo Largo.
