🏠 Elegant Accommodations

Monverde features a collection of refined rooms and suites designed to immerse guests in serenity and natural beauty. Floor-to-ceiling windows open to sweeping vineyard views, while interiors combine earthy tones, stone, and wood for a calm, organic atmosphere. Some rooms feature private terraces, fireplaces, or outdoor plunge pools, allowing guests to soak in the vineyard ambiance in complete privacy. Each space tells a story — of comfort, craftsmanship, and connection to the terroir.

🍷 The Wine Experience

At the heart of Monverde lies its award-winning vineyard, home to iconic Vinho Verde varieties such as Alvarinho, Loureiro, and Vinhão. Guests can walk among the vines, harvest grapes during the season, and enjoy exclusive tastings in the estate’s contemporary winery. The hotel also offers wine workshops, blending sessions, and sensory experiences that bring the winemaking process to life — from soil to glass. The passion for authenticity and sustainability is palpable in every bottle produced under the Quinta da Lixa label.

🍽️ Dining at Monverde

Led by Chef Carlos Silva, the Monverde Restaurant delivers an exceptional culinary experience that honors Portugal’s gastronomic heritage. The menu celebrates seasonal and locally sourced ingredients, each dish thoughtfully paired with estate wines. Whether you dine by candlelight indoors or beneath the stars overlooking the vineyards, every meal becomes a celebration of flavor, terroir, and creativity.

🧖 Activities & Wellness

Beyond its wines, Monverde is a haven of relaxation and renewal. The Monverde Spa offers signature vinotherapy treatments, inspired by the natural antioxidants found in grapes and vines. Guests can unwind in the indoor heated pool, steam room, or sauna, or reconnect with nature through cycling trails, yoga sessions, or vineyard picnics. Seasonal experiences like grape stomping and olive oil tastings enrich the connection to local traditions.

💍 Events & Weddings

With its breathtaking landscapes and refined architecture, Monverde is a storybook venue for weddings and private events.
