Monchique Resort & Spa is the only resort in this undiscovered area of Portugal that combines local hospitality and modern design with unspoiled surroundings and breath-taking views of the mountains and coast. Featuring beautifully appointed suites, an indulgent spa, various dining options and a wealth of activities available both in the resort and nearby, this idyllic retreat enjoys an enviable location in the ever-sunny woodlands in the western Algarve.
Our beautifully appointed, luxurious suites all feature furnished terraces or balconies, many with uninterrupted views of the mountains and ocean. Boasting plenty of natural light, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows, they offer the perfect setting in which to relax and unwind.
Inspired by the Algarve's most valuable natural resources and the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding mountains, our Sensorial spa is the epitome of pure rejuvenation and relaxation. The spa offers a range of individually tailored treatments from international luxury spa brand ESPA – a pioneer in the science of natural beauty.

Restful family get away
31 Aug 2025
Our family booked a couple nights away and enjoyed it so much we stayed an extra night! The facilities are beautiful and immaculate. The staff are all very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and a good variety. Our family enjoyed use of both pools, our children especially enjoyed the foam party. There is a kids club and daily activities for children and adults and as families each evening. We will definitely be back!
Tripadvisor Overview
Surrounded by nature and views of the Algarve coast, Monchique Resort & Spa is located in Serra de Monchique and offers restaurants, 2 outdoor swimming pools and a variety of spa experiences. The resort's luxurious suites are elegant and well decorated. They feature a separate bedroom, a large living room, 2 bathrooms and a balcony or terrace with outdoor furniture. Each restaurant at Monchique Resort & Spa offers an exclusive gastronomic experience. The Mezzanine cocktail bar frequently features live entertainment (during high season) and the bars serve a range of drinks and light snacks. The hotel is a 60-minute drive from Faro International Airport. It is located just a 20-minute drive from several beaches in the Portimão area, and a 15-minute drive from the nearest golf course.
Our ATOL number is T7365 and your protection begins as soon as you’re booked. If a supplier fails, you’ll get your money back, and you can’t get stranded abroad because ATOL ensures you’re brought home at no extra cost.
Payments safeguarded in a Trust Account
The airline is paid when you book and the rest of your payments are held in a trust account, which is controlled by the Travel Trust Association. This is much safer than an ABTA bond, because your money can only be released to pay the suppliers for each element of your holiday, and and your ATOL protection safeguards the whole holiday. Our TTA membership number is U7488.
