Your next vacation should be an experience rather than an escape. The Da Licenca Hotel offers precisely that. Located on a 300-acre olive grove in Portugal that was established in the 1830s. The property is now the home of Da Licenca. This beautiful boutique hotel is located among some 13,000 olive trees in the Alentejo region. With views of the Serra d’Ossa forest and the castles of Evoramonte and Estremoz, the hotel offers an experience like none other.
The property is housed in former farm buildings that transform the ruins into a remarkable minimalist retreat. The lime-washed walls and granite floors are sleek and welcoming. The property boasts just nine guest rooms, including four suites that boast hand-carved marble basins and large outdoor terraces. Some rooms offer access to private pools, though all guests are welcome to enjoy the infinity pool. There is also a private art gallery located in the former olive mill. The gallery showcases the owner’s collection of eye-catching pieces while doubling as a private dining room.
Take a closer look at this beautiful hotel in the images below and plan your stay at Da Licenca Hotel immediately. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more unique travel destinations coming very soon.
