Amenities & Activities

Enjoy a relaxing meal in our dining room. With its high exposed wooden ceilings and picturesque views of our orange grove, this room captures the unique charm of the surrounding landscape. Guests can choose to dine indoors or to experience the fresh aroma of our Orange Grove on the extending outdoor patio.

Relax by the pool and experience a beautiful sunset with a light and refreshing mocktail. Nestled beside an old English holly tree, the Holly Tree Pool Bar is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a relaxing evening.

Located in the old hall, with its thick stone walls and heavy arches, you can indulge in a selection of hot and cold beverages throughout the day and night. The Tea Bar is a place to relax, have a chat or simply escape the sun and cool down.

Get your adrenaline pumping and endorphins flowing with a workout. Located in the spa area, the gym is equipped with machines for running, rowing, steps, multigym and weights. Our indoor gym is perfect for escaping the heat of the sun or cold of winter.

Experience the beautiful Algarve weather with an outdoor exercise session. Our complex has a 1000m track meandering throughout our ten acre property with exercise pods dotted along the way.

Start your day with a therapeutic yoga session in our yoga tent. Situated over the old Santa Catarina tiled fruit drying area called an “eira” in Portuguese, our yoga tent is also a perfect place to escape the mid-day sun and relax in the shade.

With panoramic views of the sea, the mountains and the stars, our roof top terrace is a favourite spot of our guests. Top up your tan during the day, meditate at sunset, join us for some full-moon yoga or simply enjoy a refreshing drink at one of our mocktail sessions.

Cool down with a dip in our pool, then kick back on the sunbed and soak in the best weather Europe can offer. If you’ve had your fill of the sun rays, then retreat to our Moroccan dip pool and relax in shade. Don’t fret, we keep both our pools warm in the cooler months.

Improve you circulation with a trip to our steam room. Part of the old farm cottage building and located within the hammam, our steam room will help get your skin clean, lungs revived and have your whole body feeling refreshed.

Take a break from screen time and relax. At Solar Alvura we discourage the use of mobile phones, laptops and tablets, limiting them to specific areas. Embrace a digital detox, visit our library and get lost in our eclectic selection of books.
