A Legacy Rooted in the Land
Dating back to 1338, Torre de Palma Wine Hotel is a living chronicle of Alentejo’s layered history. Whitewashed walls, an iconic tower, and centuries-old structures set the scene for a retreat inspired by Roman traditions and their timeless passions: wine, olive oil, horses, and leisure. Here, heritage isn’t staged—it’s woven into the rhythm of daily life.
Design with a Personal Touch
Inside, elegance meets whimsy. Refined furnishings are softened by playful, quirky details that make the spaces feel like a beloved home rather than a polished museum. It’s a design language that balances sophistication with warmth, creating an atmosphere both welcoming and distinctive.
Wellness and Wonder
Guests can drift between the indoor and outdoor pools, rejuvenate at the spa and wellness center, or lose themselves in the quiet comfort of the lounge and library. Wellness here is not just about indulgence but about connection to place—relaxation framed by Alentejo’s calm horizons.
Heritage on Horseback
The hotel’s equestrian center celebrates one of the region’s proudest traditions: the Lusitano horse. Guests can ride through the surrounding countryside, experiencing Alentejo’s landscapes much as they’ve been traversed for centuries. It’s an immersive way to feel the heartbeat of the land.
Flavors of Alentejo
The on-site restaurant transforms local traditions into culinary artistry. Regional ingredients are elevated into gourmet dishes that honor heritage while embracing modern creativity. Each plate tells a story of the region—rich, soulful, and deeply rooted in place.
Rooms with Character
Accommodations are scattered across the historic estate: the 14th-century mansion, the restored stables, and former workers’ cottages. Each room offers its own blend of history and comfort, ensuring no two stays are ever alike. The effect is both intimate and memorable, echoing the individuality of the property itself.
DNA Hotels Verdict
Torre de Palma Wine Hotel is more than a stay—it’s an Alentejo immersion. By marrying history, design, equestrian tradition, and culinary excellence, it creates an experience that feels both timeless and alive. For travelers seeking authenticity with elegance, this is where Alentejo pours its soul into every moment.
