Alma
Set beside the Tagus River, Alma is a peaceful hideout surrounded by open views and abundant wildlife. Spend slow mornings watching the water, explore the island, then settle in for a quiet evening beneath the stars.
Alma Highlights
Perched on the banks of the Tejo, Portugal’s longest river, you won’t find a better view to sit and watch the world float by.
Grab the binoculars to see ospreys dive for fish, herons stalk the banks and wild horses swim to the island.
Best BBQ view in Portugal? Maybe. We’re biased. Morning or evening, it’s always a good time to fire up the gas BBQ.
Remoteness level
1 hour drive from Lisbon with the final 10 minutes on a dirt road. Your car might get dusty, but your reward? A private riverside cabin with nobody around.
Take our two-person kayak out onto the waters of the Tejo and see the river from a different perspective.
Paddle across to the island opposite the cabin, where wild horses roam freely, before drifting back as the sun begins to set.
It's one of those moments our guests say is a highlight of their time there.
To reserve the Kayak - you need to ‘add’ it at checkout when booking the cabin.
