Fodor's Expert Review Monchique Resort & Spa

This striking mountain retreat enjoys breathtaking views of the coastline and has become popular with national and international tourists who are looking for privacy and tranquility without being too far from civilization. On site, there's a contemporary restaurant serving traditional dishes, two bars and a gourmet food market. When you've had your fill of the scenery, relax in the well-equipped spa, or enjoy one of the three lovely swimming pools. Organized walks, sports activities and yoga are included with your stay.
