A Trip to Portugal's Coastal Beach Towns and Cities - AFAR
"Perched on a clifftop overlooking the Atlantic, this 170-room resort sits on 54 tropical acres and blends whitewashed Moorish architecture with attentive, personalized service. Facilities include six bars, 11 restaurants (notably a farm-and sea-to-table venue with two Michelin stars), three swimming pools, a spa with 14 treatment rooms, sports facilities, and newly launched private villas with butler service and private pools. Guests can descend wooden steps to a secluded golden-sand beach, enjoy poolside garlic- and wine-soaked mussels, and dine on regional comfort dishes such as a rustic spicy-sausage-and-vegetable soup at the on-site Adega." - Kristin Braswell
