Past Sintra's famous palaces in the quiet village of Colares, Marqí is a 1970s-influenced secret designed by Danish photographer Henrik Bülow. Just seven rooms, a pool with Atlantic views, and interiors that feel like a very personal private house: vintage furniture, found objects, and a distinctive creative sensibility. One of Portugal's most original and least-known addresses.

9:10 AM
Breakfast is a fruity spread. Take it nice and slow, on the terrace with a palm tree backdrop.
10:38 AM
Keen and curious surfers can walk to Praia Grande Beach for an early morning surf session. For those wanting to stay on land, the hotel has its very own tennis academy that gets you in to local courts (mansions, palaces...it's seriously fun)
1:30 PM
Ask the hotel to drop you at a local restaurant nearby for lunch, they know all the best spots. You’ll be riding in style in a vintage Mercedes.
3:41 PM
Back for some sun soaking and cooling off in the pool. It was designed for lounging so flop down with a good book and a drink, the pool bar will keep you hydrated.
7:30 PM
Time for some Portuguese plates – grilled sardines, octopus in olive oil, seafood rice – and a cocktail or two in the lobby. We love the Marqi sour.
11:56 PM
Ask for Nando’s, the hotel’s hidden club. It was named after the house’s original owner and is only found when you ask. Filled with a thick marble bar and bouclé chairs, this is a discreet spot for a spot of fun.

Old is gold. The team have carefully handpicked all the mid-century furniture and intuitively chose to use a vintage Mercedes as the house car for guests.
Local is best, and there’s something fabulously community-driven when it comes to the suppliers and partners they work with.
