2 An exceptional example of Rococo style, where even the palm trees match. IN The originality of your holiday in Estoi starts immediately with its location. In the Algarve there is something very few know, the area of barrocal, between the coast and the mountains, where the temperature is more pleasant and the smell of carob and orange trees fills the air. Indeed, this monument, classified by the Portuguese state, was fully recovered, with the adaptation of a new wing designed by the famous Portuguese architect Gonçalo Byrne, so that the classical style could have the prominence it deserves and so your comfort will never be conditional. If you don t resist, peek into the original rooms of the palace, which are now fully recovered: the Green Hall, the Great Hall and the Estoi Hall are impressive rooms, inviting and filled with details that will capture your attention. Above all, be sure to find, in each pathway, another unique detail. Even the ceilings of the third floor social restrooms are amazing, since they are found in the old rooms and halls of family use. The Pousada de Faro is a palace prepared to receive you, two minutes away from the center of Faro, where the tranquility of the countryside and the Algarve sea get together to help you spend some absolutely memorable days.
