Hotel description

Both in its architecture and its design concept, the Monchique Resort & Spa counts among the most modern wellness hotels in the Algarve region. In an enormous glass building surrounded by a sea of green coastal vegetation, guests are offered a luxury vacation centering on health and well-being. The gem of the facility is a generous wellness and spa center with up-to-date amenities and services. One area is for guests who just want to relax and be spoiled. Another medicinally equipped area offers personal advice and treatments for anti-aging, weight loss, body detoxification and healthy lifestyles. In agreement with the hotel’s integrative concept, a restaurant with nutritionally-conscious gourmet food is also on the premises.
Luxury: Modern comfort and individual service
Within the hotel’s health-centered fundamental principle, guests can depend on very friendly, individualized service in the Monchique Resort & Spa. The luxurious accomodations consist of spacious suites with straight-forward designs in beautifully handled materials such as cotton, glass, earthenware and wood. Each suite is connected with a private balcony or terrace by a sliding glass door. Families stay in a second building where even more spacious two-room suites, each with their own small kitchen, are housed.
Wellness: Just feel good, and/or live healthier
There are three building blocks to the basic concept of the spa and wellness center at the Monchique Resort & Spa: classical wellness facilities and treatments for relaxation, an area for beauty and anti-aging and a medical spa for preventative medicine. Many options are available: guests can spend relaxing hours in the sauna or steam bath, enjoy exotic wellness treatments, be rejuvenated by trained professionals, or (after a thorough health check) be treated to specific therapies (for example traditional Chinese medicine, physiotherapy, osteopathy, creating a nutrition plan).
Nature: The magical Algarve coast
The soft hills and luscious greens of the Algarve coastal landscape seem to practically come right into the rooms, thanks to large glass walls and private balconies. Due to its diverse vegetation, the Serra de Monchique is also known as the ’garden of the Algarve’. The surrounding area is not very built up, making it ideal for hikes and bike tours.
Food & Drink: Healthy Gourmet Cuisine
Another pillar of this wellness hotel’s holistic approach is its restaurant. Under the direction of well-known Portuguese head chef Olivier da Costa, the restaurant serves delicious Mediterranean cuisine with an emphasis on healthy ingredients.
Athletics & Leisure: Pool and Fitness
Hotel facilities include a stylish, generous outdoor pool and a fitness center with modern equipment. When it comes to planning excursions, the concierge service can be instrumental. In the area there are also two golf courses and the historical port city Portimão (15 minutes by car, close by to the nearest beaches--Praia da Rocha and Alvor).
Location: Ruggedly Romantic Algarve Backcountry
The Monchique Resort & Spa is situated in the middle of the Serra de Monchique mountain range, some 5km south of the eponymous health resort. All around the hotel, the protected hilly coastal landscape of the Algarve stretches out. The ocean is about 20km away, both to the west and south coasts.
