While Portugal’s charm is often discovered in Lisbon, Porto, the Douro Valley, and the Algarve, a deeper, slower paced, more soulful luxury awaits in the sun-kissed heartlands beyond the typical tourism path.
Welcome to our favorite secluded corner of Europe, the Alentejo, where timeless natural beauty and authentic indulgence meet under golden skies. Settle into elegant, design-forward villas nestled among rustic, rolling vineyards and ancient olive groves—each offering sweeping views of the countryside, with some featuring private pools and terraces for a truly intimate retreat.
Of course there are medieval villages in the rustic Alentejo and even a 2000 year old town that once was an important outpost of the Roman Empire… Evora. When you arrive, you’ll soon see and feel why Evora is listed by the UNESCO World Heritage list, thanks to its soul-inspiring heritage, historic cobble-stoned lanes, imposing medieval walls, Roman temples and a dramatic fortress-like Gothic cathedral,
At the heart of this journey lies the storied grace of the Purebred Lusitano, Portugal’s royal horse—revered for centuries for its elegance, courage, and noble lineage. Guided by expert horsemen, ride through sun-drenched meadows where each hoofbeat carries the echo of history, forging a bond with these majestic creatures that transcends words.

Between active moments, surrender to the soothing rhythm of wellness rituals inspired by the land.
Perhaps enjoy wellness treatments infused with wine, rosemary, and honey restore body and spirit, while panoramic vineyard views invite deep relaxation. Culinary artistry awaits at every meal, where seasonal ingredients—harvested from the estate itself—are transformed into unforgettable dishes and paired with exceptional wines born from the very soil beneath your feet.
From hands-on cooking workshops to tranquil walks through vineyard rows, every detail of your stay is curated with care, creativity, and deep respect for Portugal’s culture, food, wine, nature and soul. This is not just a luxury escape—it is an immersive journey into the heart of Alentejo, where nature, tradition, and refinement come together in perfect harmony.
