Suite I
A suite designed in the balance between the rustic and the refined — old wood, Portuguese textiles, looking onto the citrus garden.


An old farmhouse where history honours the present, in the calm of nature. In the eastern Algarve, beside the Ria Formosa.
Abacatus Farmhouse is a rural tourism estate in the eastern Algarve, beside the Ria Formosa and the town of Tavira.
It was once a farm growing citrus and other traditional Algarve fruits. Today it grows avocados and olives — and welcomes guests, in the middle of the land, in three suites in the main house and two apartments with private entrance.
“The silence and the comfort, the charm and the friendship, the flavours and the stars will make you feel the true soul of the Algarve.”

Designed in the balance between the rustic and the refined — old wood, Portuguese textiles and tapestries, and the rare silence of a farm that still bears fruit.

A suite designed in the balance between the rustic and the refined — old wood, Portuguese textiles, looking onto the citrus garden.

A serene room with hand-embroidered tapestries. The window opens onto the porch and the pool, and the silence arrives slowly.

The largest of the three suites. Deep wood and southern light. The Atlantic breeze reaches it in the late afternoon.

The apartment that looks onto the Nora. Living room, fitted kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, with the old water wheel visible through the window.

An apartment looking straight onto the pool. Generous ceilings, private balcony, and a sofa bed in the living room for one more pair of tired feet.


Eleven metres by four, facing south, with wooden decks and the silence of the Algarve countryside.

A long table, late afternoon, dinner by natural light. The porch is the heart of every meal on the farm.

Leather sofas, Portuguese fabrics and high ceilings. For slow afternoons and conversations that last.
Open-air massages, a tuk-tuk to the beach, bicycles, boat trips on the Ria Formosa, picnic hampers. Small rituals so that each day finds its own rhythm.

Seven 60-minute massages — classic, ayurvedic, cupping, geothermal, hot candles, Chinese pindas, lymphatic drainage — outdoors, surrounded by nature.

Rides to the beach, to the historic centre of Tavira or into the Algarve hills, in our tuk-tuk, on request.

Across the Ria Formosa, by arrangement. Leave early, watch the fishermen, come back with the sun on your face.

Free bicycles for our guests. Tavira is only minutes away along the quiet roads of the eastern Algarve.

A hamper prepared to take to the beach, parasol included. Fresh bread, local cheeses, fruit from the farm.

Walking trails through the Ria Formosa, with stops for birdwatching. Guided, by arrangement.
