An eco hotel, or a green hotel, is an environmentally sustainable hotel or accommodation that has made important environmental improvements to its structure in order to minimize its impact on the natural environment and eco friendly hotels Portugal are considered excellent place to hang out for a couple of nights in Lisbon and beyond.

Portugal ranks 29th worldwide on the inaugural Sustainable Cities Index from Arcadis, the leading global natural and built asset design and consultancy firm.

Portugal has once again been placed at the forefront of the most environmentally friendly countries in the world to live in or to visit. … According to the Good Country Index, which aims to measure the impact a single country has on the wider world, Portugal has been ranked as the third most positive contributor.

Portugal is a southern European country on the Iberian Peninsula, bordering Spain. Its location on the Atlantic Ocean has influenced many aspects of its culture: salt cod and grilled sardines are national dishes, the Algarve’s beaches are a major destination and much of the nation’s architecture dates to the 1500s–1800s, when Portugal had a powerful maritime empire.

Breakfast is complimentary. There’s a relaxed bar, and a sophisticated restaurant serving modern cuisine. Other amenities include spa treatments and a fitness room.

Welcome to Neya Lisboa Hotel, a physical and mental retreat where every detail was thoroughly considered to provide you with a unique stay in harmony with nature. We are strategically located in the heart of Lisbon, but a good way from urban agitation. You will enjoy a carefully created atmosphere which will provide customers with a deep sense of calm and relaxation.
The concept of Sustainability gains a new meaning with us, by implementing in all our activities strong policies of environmental and social responsibility. This combined with high-end gastronomy, personalized services, SPA and a Business Center make Neya Lisboa Hotel a haven for those wishing to have unconcerned tourist experiences or formal business trips.
The notch up from average 3-star to a 4-star is seen and felt. Consistent branding throughout; carpets/decor, NEYA Logo embroidered towelling, Roca full suite (incl bidet, separate overhead/hand shower heads, ergonomic mixer taps, push release plugs on bath/basin/bidet), the bedside and main table with push release drawers, 8 matching wooden hangers, the innocuous chest of drawers is easy-close with gaps to see if empty or not. The matching lamps are LED and solid metal. And even a suitcase stand (well, that’s what we used it for).
Breakfast was OK. Marble-type tables, matching crockery and cutlery. The hot stuff was cereals with hot (actually lukewarm) milk from a flask as well as scrambled eggs and bacon and mushrooms and baked beans, buffet-style. The rest was cold continental fare – selection of bread, cheese and ham. Also some fruit and yogurt. The bog-standard off-the-shelf toaster needs to be replaced by a professional catering one. A plus was the orange juice which seemed to be freshly pressed.
The Neya hotel was a lovely hotel located in a quiet residential area very close to the metro and excellent local restaurants. The rooms were clean with plenty of storage and all the amenities needed for a pleasant stay. The recycling program was a pleasant surprise and something we appreciate as environmentally conscious Canadians. The included breakfast was in a very pleasant room and provided excellent hot and cold offerings including the delicious Portuguese pastries.
The reason I chose this hotel was that it promotes ecological sustainability. I was impressed by the solar panels, abolition of individual toiletries, plans to grow vegetables on the roof and so on, but also that they provide free accommodation for some low income families visiting their sick children in the hospital opposite – very socially responsible. My room (and bathroom) was spacious and comfortable; food was good; and staff extremely friendly and helpful.
Hotel NEYA is a Eco-Friendly hotel in Lisbon, with many environmental and social concerns. You really feel that you are protecting the resources in your stay. The location is great, not far from the city center and 3 Metro stations and the staff is really helpful. The Restaurant and breakfast are great as well. I will return for sure.
 The hotel has an eco-friendly approach, is clean and inviting. Staff was helpful and we got to make a lunch pack before breakfast opened, because of early departure. Big rooms, comfortable bed.

The nearest beach is just outside the hotel and just 400m away you will find yourself in one of the best sandy beaches in the Algarve.

The hotel was rebuilt in 2000 from an old tuna fish camp and has a total of 162 rooms of which 43 rooms with river view and 5 junior suites suitable for families. The hotel has a 24-hour reception, lovely lobby area, a currency exchange desk, a luggage room, a chapel, a museum and a game room. Among the common areas guests may enjoy the air-conditioned TV room, bar and restaurant where free Wi-Fi internet connection.

A short ride from the town of Tavira, while passing through salt pans, makes this hotel an old tuna fishing village, an ideal one to relax and enjoy a quiet holiday with family. The staff were very very courteous, professional and efficient. The room given was facing the river. Really quiet and the walk to the room was through well kept gardens, the escola and a chapel.

The cuisine was amazing. The buffet was a wonderful spread, and the breakfast had a great choice of breads, salads, eggs, and continental items. The pool was always a delight always being used by the guests. The boat ride was wonderful to the private beach. A frequent free bus ride to the town is a bonus too. Definitely would go back.

Well located. Can walk or drive into Tavira. Great buffet breakfast. Room was very clean and had a small fridge and private patio. This eco hotel doesn’t use extra packaging on bathroom products. Can catch boat close by to go to beach island. We used the indoor and outdoor pools. Staff very helpful. We rented bikes and they delivered them right to the hotel. We biked along coast about 20km round trip. This is a very special spot.

The hotel is out of town but if you’re ok with that, you will appreciate this hotel for what it is. Untouristy, historic, eco-friendly, great facilities and the most helpful/courteous staff all helped to make this holiday perfect for us. Clean, comfortable room and fantastic food also. Would definitely return when looking for rest with a touch of luxury.

Eco-Hotel Vila Galé Albacora has a special appeal to people who enjoy nature. It stands on a natural park which by it self is a pro. On top of that the hotel itself is based on an old tuna fishing small village. You can imagine how this place was back in the days (visit their museum, it’s worth it). The location is superb, you’re not in the town per se (and that is definitely a plus), but close enough to enjoy what Tavira has to offer.

The staff is always ready to help with a smile of their face and the manager is 5 stars.
The food… well let’s just say that it won’t be easy to find the same quality (freshness, flavour, diversity) in town for the same value, not in your dreams.

Also people complain about the lack of light between the hotel and Tavira… it’s a natural park and Hote Albacora it’s a Eco-hotel and although they have nothing to do with the path that separates the hotel from the town of Tavira (that might have to be something related to the town hall) one has to realize that local fauna must be protected. I’m sure that there are a bunch of rules that have to be taken in order for the hotel to maintain that “Eco” prefix.

All and all is a unique experience that people should consider, weather with their families, with their loved ones and even by themselves.

Between the mountains and the sea! Placed in the middle of the mountains and the sea, the Santa Bárbara Eco-Beach Resort offers the best experiences from both worlds, between the contemplation of the mountain sheltering the famous Lagoa do Fogo and the relaxing Santa Bárbara beach, with over half a mile of sand. Both families and adventure lovers are able to enjoy an infinite number of experiences that will fill you with the mystic of “living Azores”, since the pedestrian tours, to the adrenaline of using a surfboard for the first time, or to just contemplate our unique blue and green landscape.
The beach is stunning to watch, the villas are modern, spacious, clean, and comfortable; the staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and dinner as well as room service. The private jacuzzi is worth it.
Tastefully designed to blend into the landscape. Overlooking a spectacular beach. Reminiscent of Hawaii. Eco conscience and very hip. Staff super helpful friendly and professional.
Food was best we’ve ever had. Pool is a stunner. Sign up for surfing lessons right next door. We’ll definitely recommend to friends and we will most certainly return to this extremely romantic Eco– Lodge.
 From the moment we pulled up in our car to the property we knew that this was going to be a great experience. As we entered we were greeted kindly by the front desk person and checked in with no problems. The resort is located right next to a private beach in a quiet area away from any neighborhoods. As you drive onto the property you can immediately see that the resort takes being eco and sustainable seriously.

As we entered our villa we were amazed at the great design incorporating elements of the island and also modern styling into every element. We could have spent days here! We immediately felt relaxed with the colors of the villa and the sound of the ocean. The villa was equipped with all the modern amenities we could ask for and it was very spacious. From our front door, it was only a few minutes walk to the beach where you could soak up the island life. I would describe the resort as eco-luxury with tons of style. Even though it was modern it felt very comfortable. For anyone looking for a special treat, we would recommend Santa Barbara Eco-beach Resort wholeheartedly.

We were able to enjoy breakfast and lunch at the resort. The breakfast is very delicious and features many local products from the Azores. One of the best things about the breakfast is just enjoying the amazing views of the ocean just outside. It is very easy to relax here. For our lunch, we had some great sushi which is said to be some of the best on the island. It was very tasty and fresh. The restaurant at this resort specializes in Japanese inspired cuisine using the abundance of fresh fish available on the island. We would recommend that you try the food here during your stay, you won’t be disappointed!

So if you’re considering coming to the Azores I would keep Santa Barbara Eco Beach Resort at the top of your list. It’s truly a remarkable place and we would stay there again without question.
