Fodor's Expert Review Vila Monte Farm House

Sitio dos Caliços, Olhão, Faro, 8700-069, Portugal Fodor's Choice

The Mediterranean-style buildings, lushly planted grounds, and personalized service at Vila Monte Farm House offer a soothing antidote to the sprawling resorts closer to the coast. Although this charming boutique hotel seems worlds away from the crowds, it’s less than a 25-minute drive inland from Olhão. Spacious guest rooms with splashes of color are comfortable and contemporary, and all have balconies or private terraces.

PROS

  • two pretty swimming pools
  • two excellent restaurants serving local cuisine
  • shuttle to nearby beach

CONS

  • need a car to travel around the area
  • lacks common amenities like a spa
  • food and drink is expensive
