We've compiled the best of the best in Monchique - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
Inspired by the many springs welling up from the thickly wooded mountain above Monchique, this small lodge has rooms facing the greenery, and some with terraces that afford beautiful mountain views. It's a great place to get away from it all, especially if you like walking. There's a sweet swimming pool in the garden, too.
This striking mountain retreat enjoys breathtaking views of the coastline—it makes the perfect getaway for those searching for tranquility without being too far out in the sticks. On site, there's a fine dining restaurant serving up dishes inspired by the produce of the mountains, plus two bars, a gourmet food market, and a pizzeria. When you've had your fill of the food and scenery, relax in the spa, or enjoy one of the three lovely swimming pools. Organized walks, sports activities, and yoga are included with your stay.
