Unique place. Chill vibe. Excellent breakfast. Great service. Perfect for access to surfing beaches. A bit far from Lagos/Faro but has all you need in city center. Worth the experience. All details well thought through.
NetherlandsGreat experience, great to calm down and enjoy the nature, we stayed up in one of the two wooden houses which was very nice!, very comfortable bed, lovely breakfast,full of life through staff and the animals, nice lake to take a swim
GermanyBeautiful location and great hospitality! The view from the tent is truly gorgeous. We would recommend everyone who’s is staying in the Algarve to visit Quinta Alma!
NetherlandsExceptional breakfast. Unique place. Awesome hosts. You are missing out if you don’t stay there. Glamping at its best!
GermanyA wonderful place to disconect, relax and listen to the wind in the trees; you might as well hear the sound of the sheeps and donkeys 😃and meet the two gentle giants guardians of the place. I recomand a massage with Melisa (exceptional). Joana is a perfect host.
PortugalA magical place with helpful staff, lovely accommodation and beautiful views. Friendly animals too! :)
PortugalAmazing experience! Lovely people, fantastic breakfast, great place to stay and recharge. Also a lot of great things for kids! Natural playground, a lot of animals and the adventure itself of course. We enjoyed every minute here!!!
NetherlandsThis was a unique experience set in a beautiful location - our tent was overlooking The Valley and was incredibly peaceful. We couldn’t get over waking up to the sounds of nature and a sunrise, and the stars at night! The breakfast was amazing, lots of delicious homemade treats made it very special. Being able to walk to a lake and swim without anyone else around was also pretty special! It’s clear how much effort and thought has gone into the whole place and we were really impressed by it all.
United KingdomAmazing, unique resort for relaxing and connecting! Highly recommended.
FinlandEverything! The nature, the tent, the breakfast. What an amazing experience. When you can "disconnect" for a determined time and enjoy the naturalistic pleasures of the wonderful Portuguese countryside it stops being just a holiday and more a connection with earth. Joana was an amazing host amongst all the other volunteers. After 3 nights away I have never felt my family so at peace.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
