Casa Modesta

Casa Modesta is an elegant retreat that combines ecotourism with sustainable design. It’s located between the city of Olhão and the village of Fuseta, in Ria Formosa Nature Park, a coastal lagoon in the southern Algarve region.
The rural tourism / contemporary feel combination, manifests itself in nine rooms with private patios.
Inspired by the simplicity of regional architecture, the minimalist single-story complex offers roof terraces and whitewashed rooms.
There is also a garden with a section for organically grown vegetables and a solarium where time flows with the tides.

In addition to the Algarve’s eternal summer, experience the daily routines of those who make this way of life a lifestyle. From gathering clams to baking bread in a wood-fired oven, to the harvesting and drying of fruits. Catch a ride on a traditional boat, practice bird watching, support the local nature reserve, and when night falls turn your veranda into a planetarium and watch the stars. When the body requires rest, surrender yourself to wellness rituals, taking advantage of the natural properties of local olives, almonds, fleur de sel and algae.
