Hold The Fort: All Along The Watchtower Hotels

"Encircled by stone walls, Forte São João da Barra was originally constructed in the 17th century to protect the port town of Tavira. Though you might forget it while having breakfast on the terrace, looking out over the water, it’s important to note that the stone citadel is a landmark, and not a hotel purpose-built with travelers’ predilections in mind — which only adds to its appeal." - Mark Fedeli
