Hello Everyone!

More and more visitors to Portugal  are seeking environmentally friendly places to stay while traveling in this hidden gem of Europe.  And more and more guesthouses, B&Bs and hotels are jumping on the bandwagon to offer “green” services to guests.  Recently the first certified bio-hotel was opened in Portugal.  The Hotel Lusitana is located in north central Portugal in the lovely city of Guarda  www.hotellusitanaparque.com.  This area is a bit off the beaten tourist track but truely worth exploring while touring Portugal. 

Travelers desiring to tread lightly are also seeking  charming, unique and “green” B&Bs that are usuallyoffer a much more rewarding experience thanlarge mass tourism hotels.

A beautiful small hotel is the Monte da Xica www.montedaxica.com.  In a Nautre preserve in coastal Alentejo it is a wonderful place to retreat to.  Beautiful beaches, glorious countryside, great rooms,and friendly hosts dedicated to sustainablilty.

Colina Flora www.colinaflora.com is a small, yet lovely “green” guesthouse peacefully located in the heart of the Beautiful Sintra Natural Park, with ocean views and only 3 km from amazing Adrag Beach it is a delight refuge and yet centrally located.  The hosts are enthusiastic about organic agriculture, Food For Life meals, and supporting locally grown/produced products.
