The Hotel Guru is pretty upscale but fun to look at. Marcie Ellers.
“Intimate 17th Century villa resting in luscious tropical gardens, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Organic Mediterranean food, made with fresh local produce. Comfortable rooms surround the pool and bask in the undisturbed ocean view. A charming resort with Provencal style rooms. ”

Hotel Review
“Slightly shabby, but very cosy, the 25 rooms in this hotel have bags of character. The sub-tropical gardens offer plenty of privacy and there is a heated (unusual for the Algarve) swimming pool to wallow in. Food from the Swiss chef is light Mediterranean and mostly home-grown and organic. A beauty salon offers Gourmet skin treatments from the Italian Ishi range.”

See What They Say
“Former private home of a 17th century noble family, this boutique hotel remains a secluded, intimate little paradise. A jewel in pastel peach colours nestled on a bluff above the deep blue Atlantic Ocean.
Beautifully designed mediterranean gardens reveal a trail down to Porto de Mós beach. An immediate feeling of well-being invades our hearts.
Unparalleled for its gorgeous vistas of sea & sky, this small resort breathes true charm and state-of-the-art design and décor. The 26 rooms are cosily equipped and enjoy beautiful sea views.”
