The dream and discovery
The dream of creating and running a small rural tourism unit was an old one. At the end of 2016, after a long search, we found a small abandoned farm that was difficult to access. But it had a privileged location. It seemed like an excellent place for what we wanted.
At the same time, it was a place of absolute silence, tranquillity and peace, but very close to the city, the beaches and access. That's where we wanted to move. The property, which was in an advanced state of disrepair, was purchased at the beginning of 2017. The first step towards making our dream come true was taken.

Rehabilitation
After a difficult and tortuous bureaucratic process of projects, licenses and authorizations, the rehabilitation work began in October 2021. The refurbishment and extension were carried out with full respect for the architectural features and the use of traditional building materials from the region. Now, almost six years since we started this process, we are finally coming to the end of this marathon. Our doors will be opening very soon and we are still full of energy and enthusiasm to welcome our visitors and available to provide them with pleasant, active and at the same time peaceful and relaxing moments.
The proposal
At Monte das Açoteias we wake up every day to the sound of birds chirping. Throughout the day we can enjoy the silence and tranquillity of the countryside while reading a book in the shade of a carob tree or having a cool drink by the pool. On the Algarvian patio we can chat and have a drink in the late afternoon. But when we feel the call for the rhythm and vibrancy of the city, the desire to bury our toes in the sand, go shopping or enjoy a cultural show, everything is just a 5 or 10 minute stroll away. Everything is right at hand. All this and much more.
We've found and built a space the size of our dream and we're going to share it with all those who want to fill our souls with the pleasure and joy of their presence and stay.
Welcome!
This "monte" is yours too!
