Pousada de Sagres

This small Pousada, built in 1960, enjoys an enviable position in the village of Sagres, southwest Algarve, resting on the top of the Praia da Mareta cliffs overlooking the shimmering waters of the Atlantic Ocean.  Just 6km from the Cape of São Vicente, the most south western point in Europe, these dramatic headlands are a haven for birdlife, especially during the migration period.

The region is known for its soft sand and turquoise waters and the closest beach (Praia da Mareta) is only 10 minutes’ walk away.  Vist the Parque Natural da Costa Vicentina (65km / c.1 hour 15 minutes’ drive) for a hike or bike ride.  Various activities can be booked through the hotel locally and range from birdwatching, hiking and trekking to boat excursions and surfing.   

The Pousada guest rooms are modern and bright and some have balconies with ocean views.  There is a traditional restaurant serving local cuisine, cosy bar and lounges and an outdoor swimming pool offering panoramic ocean views.  From the furnished terraces and gardens guests can relax with a drink and watch one of the many beautiful sunsets or simply admire the stunning view of Ilhas do Martilhal, Ponta da Atalaia and the Serra de Monchique mountain range.
