If hiking is your thing, Amaria might just be your perfect base in the Algarve. Set right next to the Rota Vicentina, one of Portugal’s most stunning coastal trail networks, this boutique hotel places you within walking distance of cliffs, wild beaches, and unforgettable views. It’s in Maria Vinagre, a quiet village near Odeceixe, tucked between the ocean and the untouched landscapes of the Costa Vicentina Natural Park.
Amaria is for travelers who want design and comfort without losing that close-to-nature feeling. With just a few suites, the atmosphere is relaxed and quiet, ideal after a long walk or a swim. Each room includes a private terrace or balcony, a kitchenette, air conditioning, and beautiful natural light. The style is minimalist but thoughtful, with lots of local touches.
The on-site Cantina is where breakfast happens, and it’s not just a few pastries and coffee. Expect local cheeses, fruit, warm dishes, and fresh juice. On select evenings, dinner is served too, and if you’re lucky, it might even be cooked by Phoebe, the owner.
There’s also a sauna with a view, yoga classes, film nights, and plenty of space to disconnect. Despite the quiet vibe, the hotel is well-located for short drives to Odeceixe Beach or even further down the coast.
