- The Postcard Cuelim is a charming small hotel housed in a 350-year-old terracotta-tile-roofed residence. Expect elegant interiors with wooden furnishings, soft drapes and sunlit balconies. There's gourmet fare to the savoured in the gardens, too. A boutique gem.
- Vivenda dos Palhaços has long been a Majorda favourite. Run by a brother-and-sister team, this immensely characterful spot comprises a heritage house - with Portuguese and Hindu elements - as well as a small cottage and quirky tented bedroom. Quirky and welcoming, the hotel promises terrific food and drink - and the atmosphere of a fascinating friend's magical house party.
