Discover the art of relaxation in the Algarve

Among Pine Cliffs’ unique culinary offerings is MIMO Algarve, a lively daytime espresso bar, gourmet shop, and cooking school hosting different gastronomic experiences giving you the chance to learn new recipes, from cookies and cupcakes to plant-based dishes and brunch favourites. You can even learn how to cook the popular codfish and cataplana – a local pork and seafood stew.

By evening MIMO Algarve transforms into a chef’s table experience where you take your time savouring a special menu accompanied by wines paired with each course by the sommelier. There are also drinks workshops, including cocktail-making, as well as tastings of Algarve and port wines.

The spa’s exceptional core range of treatments and therapies uses some of the world’s leading spa products while its authentic signature treatments draw inspiration from the indigenous cultures, healing traditions, and ingredients of the Algarve. Senses of the Algarve, for instance, uses sea salt and sand from Praia da Falésia for a revitalising exfoliation, followed by a nourishing body wrap and massage. After a day of wellness, take a moment to sip on homegrown lemongrass tea or enjoy delicious, nutritious, and guilt-free cuisine from the resort’s healthy restaurant Zest which specialises in fresh, organic, natural, and raw dishes.

Along with all this, as one of Europe’s leading lifestyle resorts, Pine Cliffs includes a gym and health club bathed in natural light and equipped with the latest fitness equipment from Technogym.
