On arrival in Comporta, guests settle into carefully renovated buildings that retain the village’s relaxed character, with shops, restaurants and the beach within walking distance. The hotel’s event spaces can be arranged in different layouts for business meetings, team retreats or creative workshops, and group menus are available. Nature walks and culinary experiences can form part of the programme. AlmaLusa Café has a terrace overlooking the village and serves daytime food and drinks made with seasonal ingredients from local producers, to eat in or take away. By the outdoor pool, Duna by the Pool serves light snacks and drinks; upstairs, The RoofTop Bar & Restaurant looks across the rice fields. The hotel is about an hour and a half from Lisbon, with transfers among the arrangements the concierge can make.
