The Portuguese word pousada may literally mean ‘inn’, yet it signifies so much more. Born of an artist’s desire to preserve and renovate Portugal’s most stunning historic buildings, these pousadas look unlike any hotel imaginable. One of the country’s finest can be found in the Algarve: the Pousada Palácio Estói *****, a chic modern spa and restaurant hotel nestled within an ancient eighteenth-century palace with a blend of rococo interiors, Roman columns and Versailles-style gardens. Combined with modern luxury, this is the quintessential Portuguese pousada experience.

TRANSPORT

PLANE

  • Faro Airport (FAO) is located 4 km / 2.5 mi west of Faro, in the Algarve.

    It is a fairly well served international airport which receives flights from many capitals and major cities across Europe, as well as minor cities in the UK. Most of the flights to this airport operate seasonally, however the airport is a base for Ryanair, and the airline operates a number of year-round flights.

    Another option is to fly to Lisbon Airport (LIS), around 2 hours and 25 minutes' drive to the north.
