Contrast offers intense and sharp experiences. In Sofia’s Place you breath the local community spirit and culture in a sophisticated and cosmopolitan accommodation, in the heart of one of the most exclusive, dreamy and romantic places around. As Jardim do Mar itself, Sofia's Place offers the local and the universal, the unique and the diverse, the rural environment and the urbane comfort. Sofia was born in the pitoresque village. And as roots are kept intact, Jardim do Mar became more cosmopolitan as it attracted artists (writers, poets, painters), surfers and nature and tranquility lovers from all over.

Gisela João, a new «fadista»



Gisela João is already one of the best and most applauded Fado singers in Portugal. She has just released her selftitled debut album. Listen to the true emotion in the song "Meu amigo está longe" (My friend/ lover is far away") or in "Vieste do Fim do Mundo" (You came from the end of the world).
