Where to go: L'AND VINEYARDS, ALENTEJO
L’AND Vineyards is a part of only a hand full of luxury full-service 5-star properties in Portugal which were designed and built around wine. L’AND Vineyards is a "Wine Resort" that offers a unique rural experience in an exclusive and contemporary ambiance. Looking at the photos, one would think that L’AND is set in a faraway vineyard, one that takes hours on back roads to be reached. Actually, it is just under an hour’s drive from Lisbon airport.
Besides the L’AND Restaurant, the best thing about the L’AND Vineyards hotel is the sky suite. These are detached from the main building, so there are no noises or confusion to hassle your downtime. Plus, you get a bit of a walk through the vineyards on your way to dinner, breakfast, or a vinotherapy massage. They are called Sky Suites because they give you the impression of sleeping "under the stars" when you open on the bedroom’s ceiling.
EXTENDED TRIPS
After long months at home, working remotely ensured the possibility of setting up an office in a hotel, on a beach, or at an off-the-grid retreat with Wi-Fi access. Long-term tours to take advantage of the best that countries have to offer will continue to be a focus in the year 2022.
