Monte Rosa - Onthaasten & Genieten

Resort

Description

Monte Rosa is located in the southwestern part of the Portuguese Algarve, 2 km from the authentic village of Barão de S. João, 9 km northwest of the lively historic town of Lagos on the south coast. It is an hour's drive from Faro airport and a half hour's drive from the still unspoiled west coast. You are away from mass tourism yet close to fantastic beaches and can enjoy peace, nature and fresh air. You will find an ideal base here for walks and cycling tours. Monte Rosa covers 4 hectares of rolling terrain, with many old almond, olive and fig trees. In rustic style, a number of old farmhouses have been renovated, in which we offer atmospheric, well-maintained accommodations. THE ACCOMMODATION All accommodations have their own bathroom, with shower or bath. There are rooms for 1, 2 or 3 people and a couple of fully equipped apartments, suitable for 4 to 7 people. Some have their own kitchenette or kitchen, others share cooking facilities outside. All this is surrounded by a colorful garden, with various paths, terraces and cozy seating areas, chairs, loungers and hammocks. Everyone can use the BBQ. All guests are welcome in the communal area with large terrace, which also serves as a restaurant. There is a swimming pool (5 x 10m), located in the midst of the quiet countryside. You can also swim in the evening by the romantic underwater lighting. On the loungers and in the hammocks you can relax beautifully. ACTIVITIES Monte Rosa is also an ideal place for children. The surroundings are inviting for exploring, building huts, etc. There are cats to pet and chickens that lay lovely fresh eggs for us. The beautiful round space (The Round House) with heating in the lime-plastered round wall is used for yoga, dance, massages and other activities. Through the large windows (with double glazing) you have a fantastic view over the vineyards. This space is also available to rent so you can organize your own workshop, training, reunion or other activity. Yoga classes are held weekly, currently on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings. RELAXED ATMOSPHERE At Monte Rosa you can especially enjoy peace and being outdoors. It is an ideal place to unwind. Our intention is to offer a relaxed atmosphere in which you can recover from the stress that many experience in daily life. We would like to be a meeting place for everyone, regardless of background. The terrace by the communal area often becomes the focal point in the evening of a pleasant and informal gathering. LOVE FOR NATURE We attach great value to handling nature ecologically and being economical with what it produces. Waste is sorted on site. We have our own vegetable and herb garden, laid out according to permaculture principles. The hot water system runs entirely on solar energy. Welcome, Bem-vindo!

    Monte Rosa is fantastisch. Het ligt op een prachtige plek, midden in de natuur. Er heerst een hele relaxte sfeer en het is een prima uitgangspunt om de Algarve te ontdekken. We hebben erg fraaie wandelingen gemaakt en de kust is wonderschoon. Lagos is een leuk stadje. Ver weg van het massatoerisme is het echt genieten op Monte Rosa. Wij zijn er nu voor de 6e keer geweest, in verschillende jaargetijden , maar het is altijd top. We komen zeker terug!

    We hebben genoten van ons verblijf bij Monte Rosa, wat een heerlijke plek! De ontspannen sfeer, de gastvrijheid, de lekkere ontbijtjes, de Portugese zon... En er is veel te beleven in de omgeving. We hebben een aantal prachtige wandelingen gemaakt en de boottocht langs de grotten van Lagos is absoluut een aanrader. Er zijn een paar gezellige restaurantjes in het dorp op loopafstand. We komen zeker terug!
