Luxury isn't doing more. It's spending your time exactly as you choose.
Some guests spend their days exploring medieval villages.
Others watch the sunrise from a hot-air balloon, discover local wineries, ride through the estate on horseback or simply spend the afternoon by the lake.
Every stay is different because every guest is different.
Your time at Serra do Meio begins with possibility.
Imagine wandering through the white streets of Monsaraz.
Spend a morning discovering Évora, one of Portugal's UNESCO World Heritage cities.
Visit traditional olive oil producers and family wineries that have been welcoming guests for generations.
Cruise across the calm waters of Alqueva.
Or simply return to Serra do Meio before sunset and enjoy doing absolutely nothing.
There is no itinerary.Only possibilities.
Watch the sun rise over the Alentejo from a hot-air balloon that can take off directly at Serra do Meio.
We enjoyed a boat trip on Alqueva with great food and wine.
We once had a wonderful local restaurant prepare all our meals for a week, because we wanted more time for other things.
We went skydiving when we turned 50.
We have visited the Chapel of Bones in Évora several times.
We have had a chef cook for us, and on another occasion, a local cook prepared traditional Alentejo food.
