Fodor's Expert Review Casa Modesta

Quatrum do Sul, Olhão, Faro, 8700-128, Portugal Fodor's Choice

Occupying a building dating from the 1940s, this family-run hotel on the outskirts of Olhão is both rustic and rural, stylish and cosmopolitan. The guest rooms have private terraces that overlook the nearby nature reserve. The design is simple and elemental, with natural materials like cork that call to mind the region's history.
