Destination
With its empty beaches, quaint, century-old towns and lip-smacking fresh seafood, Portugal’s Eastern Algarve is an undiscovered gem. One of the country’s best-kept secrets, this special destination is a tribute to tradition, a song of saudade, an emotional state of mind that describes the Portuguese soul and identity by preserving ancient history, a unique cultural heritage, traditional crafts and a unique ecosystem.
Last but not least ...
Our Junior Butler Grand
Being a pet friendly hotel, we have a very special Junior Butler: GRAND. The Portuguese Water Dog is not only the ambassador of our pet-friendly Hotel. No, she is also our good soul and all-round Very Good Girl. She works in the customer service, where her affectionate, social nature makes her the perfect fit for this role.
Read our Grand Magazine
We like to think of our Grand House as a Grand Dame. She is almost 100 years old, itself a book with thousands of pages of stories. No wonder, then, that we thought it was time to put the Grand Dame's life on paper. We are very happy to present you the first issue of our Grand Magazine.

Bask in the sun on our own exclusive beach, just 3 km from the Grand House. While you relax in the sun beds or hammocks, you can ask our Mobile Butler for a snack or fresh drinks. There is also a lifeguard on duty. (beach concession from June 12 until the end of September)
