There is a story behind Casa Modesta steeped in family history that once you’ve visited leaves you longing to return.

Long time residents to the Algarve region, The Fernandes family have owned the property over generations which may come as a surprise considering the Casa’s modern architectural aesthetic. Where the family home once stood, now lies an intimate 9 room boutique residence where one can experience a holiday like no other.   The Casa Modesta ethos goes beyond the norm when it comes to hospitality, with a strong focus on connecting guests with an immersive experience when it comes to local artisans, the dynamic food culture and the native surrounds.
