Enjoy the unique experience of Hotel Casa Palmela, located in the heart of the stunning Arrábida region.

WELCOME TO HOTEL CASA PALMELA

Situated in the heart of the stunning Arrábida region, within the Natural Park, Hotel Casa Palmela, a member of the Once Upon a House chain, is a luxurious retreat that offers a unique hospitality experience immersed in the natural beauty and rich history of this area.

The history of the house dates back to the 17th century, and over the years, the property has undergone various phases, some of significant religious and political relevance, duly documented in Portugal’s history. 

Visual reference: Pedro de Sousa Holstein, Duke of Palmela, former Prime Minister of Portugal.

In the same family since 1826, it was in 2016 that the main house and its dependencies were adapted to be transformed into a prestigious boutique hotel, preserving all its original charm and character.

With 21 rooms and 5 houses, a stay at Hotel Casa Palmela, a member of the prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World network, is a true delight for the senses. Each room and house has been carefully and tastefully decorated, combining the charm of the classic with modern comfort.
