Written by bestselling Portuguese author Margarida Rebelo Pinto, this volume traces the patience, creativity, and devotion that transformed a cherished landscape into an internationally celebrated destination. Unfolding through chapters on the hotel's origins, the region of Comporta, its rooms and hospitality, artistic collaborations, and the quiet rituals of local life, it reveals a world rarely captured, and a way of living that, once encountered, is impossible to forget.
