A Colorful, Bohemian Escape Inspired by the Traditional Architecture of Fatima
Named after a kidnapped Moorish princess and filled with Catholic mythology, Fatima is a town steeped in mystery and layered histories. Luz Charming Houses is an eclectic, bohemian boutique hotel inspired by the traditional architecture of Fatima from the 19th and early 20th centuries. The region, for many centuries, was largely barren and filled with homes built by the residents themselves alongside relatives and neighbors. The property reflects these intimate traditions alongside a dedication to ecological preservation, with pial porch houses, a natural cave in the garden with aromatherapy treatments, a sheep shelter, and a forest filled with indigenous plants.
Rooms are cozy, with pleasant natural tones, and light-filled. Concrete open-plan suites come fit with full kitchens, fireplaces, and sunken bathtubs. An on-site garden raises fruit trees, olive trees, and oaks. The pool is carved from stone, and there is a hermitage for meditation. Begin the day with a fresh, organic local breakfast, enjoy a soothing massage in the natural cave, and explore the surrounding area –known for cycling, the nature of the Serra D’Aire mountains, and many nearby beaches.
