A hidden sanctuary in the serene south of Portugal

Deep in the quiet hills of Portugal’s Algarve, Viceroy at Ombria Algarve offers a side of the region few ever see—wild, soulful, and steeped in beauty. Surrounded by ancient cork forests, winding rivers, and storybook villages, this retreat swaps the coastal crowds for pure tranquility, while keeping the Algarve’s beaches and cultural gems within easy reach.

Sustainability meets sophistication in rooms and suites dressed in earthy tones, tactile local materials, and generous terraces that open onto the landscape. The views sweep across olive groves and the curves of an 18-hole championship golf course—designed not to tame the land, but to flow with it.

Dining here is an ode to the Algarve’s flavours. From wood-fired breakfasts at Ombria Kitchen to hand-rolled pastries at Café Central, every meal feels rooted and relaxed. Salpico Pool Bar brings light bites to your sunlounger, while Casa e Fora serves comfort food with a side of fairway views. Come evening, Solalua steals the scene with sharing plates laced with Portuguese soul.
