Sustainable luxury and comfort with a sense of adventure in Portugal’s Alentejo
Relax and connect with nature at Gandum Village – Conscious Boutique Hotel, a vision of sustainable design, technology and nature in Portugal’s Alentejo. Simple yet sophisticated, Gandum Village’s Earth Rooms, in the striking Claustro building, showcase the ancient technique of Taipa (rammed earth) renowned for creating naturally ventilated and insulated spaces that radiate a sense of stillness.
Each of these 18 sleek, contemporary-styled rooms combine comfort with the rustic beauty of their surroundings, with sustainability at their core. Standard luxuries include organic mattresses and hand-picked amenities crafted from all-natural ingredients. With rooms that include a choice of views from the castle and vineyard to the forest and garden, tranquillity is guaranteed. Families and larger groups up to six can opt to stay in one of the three apartments in the Monte building, each equipped with a kitchenette and balcony facing the Alentejo countryside.
Relax by one of the four available swimming pools, explore the region on mountain bikes or simply take in the serenity of the rural landscape before savouring the gastronomic delights of Provenance, Gandum Village’s restaurant. Here, guests and in-the-know locals enjoy the unique and delicious combination of Mediterranean cuisine and local specialities; every ingredient has been carefully sourced from local suppliers or grown in their own vegetable garden.
The hotel’s vast sustainable initiatives, especially the restaurant’s farm-to-table concept using produce grown on-site and commitment to agroforestry, with 50,000 trees present, Gandum Village is an idyllic refuge.
