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 19^th and early 20^th 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, and a sheep shelter with 400 free-ranging animals preventing fire and preserving endangered indigenous plant species.

Rooms are colorful, esoteric, and light-filled. Concrete open-plan suites come fit with full kitchens, fireplaces, and free-standing bathtubs. An on-site garden raises fruit trees, olive trees, and oaks. The pool is carved from stone, and there is a garden for meditation. Begin the day with a fresh, organic local breakfast, enjoy a soothing massage in the garden cave, and explore the surrounding area –known for cycling, the nature of the Serra D’Aire mountains, and many nearby beaches.
