Hidden by pine trees and positioned by one of the cleanest and most
undisturbed beaches in Europe, Pura Emoção really is the ideal getaway
choice. The nature of the place is unhurried, with days spent lounging
on the beach, sampling fresh seafood and going on peaceful walks.
Pura
Emoção is a place with a unique sense of belonging. Located a mere one
hour south of Portugal's capital Lisbon, this retreat is nestled on a
beautiful 17-acre estate, adjacent to Herdade da Comporta (Portugal's
best kept secret), and characterized by mature pines and cork trees,
vineyards, rice fields and nearby untouched white, sandy beaches that
stretch 50 kilometers. This is an authentic place, rich in cultural
heritage, welcoming locals, great foods and wines. Pura Emoção offers
the privacy, tranquility and simplicity in lifestyle that is equally
addictive as it inspires to do and experience more with less.

Location
Located
only a one hour and fifteen minute drive south of Lisbon, Comporta,
which comprises several villages, rice fields, vineyards, pine forests
and 40km of pristine, white sandy beaches across a few ten-thousand
hectares, is still one of Portugal's best kept secrets. Over the last
decade, this area has attracted renowned international artists and
fashion designers as well as Lisbon's own boho-chic crowd, trying to
escape the bustle of city life. The seclusion of individual properties
and a few hip beach restaurants and bars, serving fresh grilled fish,
cocktails and local wines at sunset, create a peaceful and tranquil
environment that nurtures body and soul.
Comporta is only a short hour drive south of Lisbon.128km, approximately 01h15min drive.
Pura Emoção is 13km from the tranquil fishing village of Comporta, in the Alentejo region of Portugal.
The
beaches of Pego and Carvalhal are only five minutes' drive from Pura
Emoção, while the expansive sands of Comporta are also well worth a
visit.
Activities
This is a beach-lover's paradise, with
some of Portugal's best beaches within easy reach by car. Carvalhal and
Pego are less than a ten-minute drive from the hotel, while Comporta
and Soltroia beaches are about 20 minutes away. Activities in the local
area include surfing, horse riding, cycling (the hotel has bicycles you
can borrow) and bird watching in Estuário nature reserve. It is also
possible to do cooking classes at the hotel and Troia's golf course is
just 28km away.
Just one hour driving from Lisbon, there are kilometres
and kilometres of desert beaches to stroll around. After experiencing
the fine sand and the blue sea background, Pura Emoção awaits
you, in a peaceful environment to recharge your energies.

SPA
The well-being of our guests is important to us:
At
Pura Emoção, guests have free access to an indoor heated pool, a sauna
and steam bath. Massages and other treatments are available by
appointment in the privacy of an indoor facility or - if you prefer
being surrounded by nature - adjacent to the outdoor pool. The property
provides ample opportunity to relax or meditate in the shade of the
amazingly beautiful umbrella pines, or savouring a tea freshly made from
leafs picked in our organic garden.
Culinary experiences
Together
with our Chef João, we have designed a unique cooking program. You will
participate in the vegetables harvest in our bio garden (whenever
possible), a tour to a local fish market followed by a workshop where
you will put your hands on and learn some culinary tricks. You will also
be preparing your own dinner while enjoying a glass of wine from the
region
Dining
Restaurant is an elegant, open plan affair
which serves a refreshing Mediterranean menu, with many ingredients
being sourced from the hotel's organic garden. The food isn't as heavy
as other popular Portuguese dishes but they are by no means less
delicious. It is the sort of place where you can expect fresh pastries
at breakfast, local cheeses daily and a fantastic wine selection from
neighbouring Alentejo vineyards.
