Tucked away along Portugal’s Atlantic coast, just south of Lisbon, Comporta exudes a quiet charm that feels worlds apart. Now, a new luxury coastal estate, Pinheirinho, is set to redefine mindful design.
Years in the making, this 400-hectare development will be home to a Six Senses resort, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ expanding Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio. In partnership with VIC Properties, Six Senses will create a sustainably designed retreat, blending nature, community, and high-end hospitality.

Once a private, invitation-only estate, much of Pinheirinho remains a protected pine forest. Six Senses will introduce a 70-key hotel and 58 branded residences, designed to harmonize with the landscape of forests, lakes, and sand dunes.
The accommodations include deluxe guest rooms, suites, and villas, all crafted with wellness and sustainability at the core.
The residences, ranging from two to five bedrooms, integrate seamlessly into their surroundings—whether nestled among trees, overlooking a lake, or resting on sand dunes. Owners will enjoy exclusive amenities, communal spaces, and a dedicated lounge.
Six Senses CEO Neil Jacobs emphasized the resort’s commitment to blending with the land’s natural contours while embracing Comporta’s cultural traditions. VIC Properties CEO João Cabaça echoed this sentiment, highlighting their shared vision of preserving the region’s heritage while creating a sustainable legacy.
A key feature of the resort is the Path of Life, a mindful walking experience inspired by sacred geometry. The estate will also include a children’s activity area, an Earth Lab for sustainability workshops, and a farm-to-table culinary approach.
Guests can enjoy locally sourced dishes at the main restaurant, a poolside grill, a wine bar, and a deli café, while the Chef’s Table will host pop-up dining experiences.
Wellness takes center stage at Six Senses Spa Comporta, designed to blend into the pine forest with green roofs and natural materials. The spa will offer cutting-edge therapies, a yoga studio, hydrotherapy facilities, and the Alchemy Bar, where guests can create natural spa products.
Life at Pinheirinho is designed for a slower pace, where yoga at sunrise, afternoons on the golf course, or barefoot bike rides to the market become part of the daily rhythm. The resort will join IHG’s growing portfolio in Portugal and is set to open in 2028.
