Company groups come to Octant Vila Monte for a quieter stretch of the Algarve, away from the busiest resort areas, and a setting that gives meetings a slower pace. In Moncarapacho, citrus groves, gardens and separate buildings create a rustic, boho-chic feel, with different corners to gather in. Event spaces have natural light and a calm atmosphere, for business meetings, team activities, brand launches and talks. Food begins with the Algarve’s soil, nearby vegetable gardens and orchards, alongside flavours from the sea; dining options include À TERRA, Laranjal and Chef’s Table. After the work is done, groups can take a guided full-moon walk towards the Serra or travel from Olhão by boat among the Ria Formosa islands, stopping at an oyster farm. The resort is reached via the N125, with access to the Via do Infante nearby.
