Explore the beaches and vineyards of the Algarve from this country residence and 25-acre farm featuring a swimming pool, fruit orchards, olive groves, and flower gardens. Fazenda Nova has 15 perfect suites, all with Balinese-style beds topped with Egyptian cotton linens, and most with private outdoor spaces. The rustic-chic main building houses a vinyl library with many genres of music, and a small bar with guests gather.
Occupying a converted tuna market (detailed in a small in-house museum, for those interested), the Vila Galé Albacora is a charming hotel that sits at the confluence of two rivers. In fact, in the summer months, boats depart from here to take you to the nearby white-sand beach on Tavira Island. It's traditional in architectural style, modern in decor, and not far from Tavira. Rooms are understated by practical and cozy-feeling.
