The Albatroz Hotel

Perched on a cliff above the Atlantic, this grand hotel was originally a duke’s palace, built in 1873. As you’d expect from this stunning location, the views are sublime – perfect for enjoying a sundowner cocktail. With two fantastic beaches either side of it, and the vibrant city of Lisbon just a taxi ride away, there’s plenty here to keep you busy.

The beautiful swimming pool occupies a terrace with ocean views, surrounded by stylish wooden sun loungers. The gym also looks out to sea, and there’s a wooden deck where you can take part in yoga classes. If cycling is your thing, you can borrow a bike at no extra cost and take advantage of Portugal’s cycle-friendly streets.
