Thai Culinary Weekend


Two nights devoted to flavour and discovery.

Chef Ray crafts a private three-course tasting at Siam on your first evening — a journey through Thai culinary traditions rooted in the property's own gardens and orchards. The remainder of your weekend unfolds at your pace: long breakfasts, pool afternoons, a leisurely lunch among the orange trees, evening aperitifs overlooking the countryside. This is how you spend time in the Algarve countryside when food matters.

Interested in menu customisation, wine pairings, or special dietary requests? Get in touch — we tailor the experience to you.

  • 2 nights in any room type.
  • 3-course Chef's tasting at Siam (one evening; beverages à la carte, bespoke pairings available).

Romantic Escape


Designed for two. Curated to indulge.

We believe the best escapes are as personal as the people taking them. Your Romantic Escape begins with us understanding what matters most to you — then we craft an experience around it.

Picture yourself exploring hidden hilltop villages with a private local guide. Or a sunset champagne cruise along the Algarve coast. A private chef preparing dinner on the terrace beneath the stars. An afternoon yacht charter with swimming in secluded coves. Wine tastings at family-run quintas in the Serra mountains. A private helicopter tour of the entire region. A couples' massage and wellness ritual in our gardens.

Every element is negotiable. Every detail considered. Because this time is yours.

  • 2+ nights in your choice of room.
  • Welcome arrival ritual — fruit platter, welcome drink, property tour.
  • Late checkout until 14:00 (flexible with 24-hour notice).
  • Bespoke experience curation — from custom tours to private dining, yacht charters to helicopter excursions, wellness to adventure.

Algarve Explorer


Three nights beyond the guidebook.

Forget the postcard beaches. The Algarve is alive — in its inland villages, coastal trails, working farms, and the stories of people who've made this region home. We've spent years discovering the places most visitors miss: a coastal path that opens onto a secret cove. A market where locals shop, not tourists. A family-run quinta where the wine tastes like the earth it grew from. A hilltop village where time moved differently a century ago and hasn't rushed since.

Your personal guide — someone who knows these paths, these stories, and these communities — walks with you. Three days of discovery. Bring comfortable shoes, a camera, and an appetite for the real Algarve.

  • 3 nights in any room type.
  • Private local guide for curated daily itineraries (beaches, villages, farms, artisans, wine).
  • Packed lunch provisions available each day.
