What to expect

Monchique Resort & Spa occupies a hillside position at Montinho beside the road between Portimão and Monchique. Suites have separate living space, and the outlook towards the hills and coast gives this substantial resort a very different setting from the Algarve’s beach hotels.

Pools, restaurants, a gym and a bookable spa support a stay centred on relaxation and the surrounding countryside. Family facilities include a seasonal children’s club; walkers and cyclists can also use the hotel as a base for exploring the Serra de Monchique.

Planning your stay

  • Indoor spa access is separate from the outdoor pools and can involve an additional charge and advance booking.
  • The resort is in the hills, outside Monchique town and away from the beaches.
