THE FINER DETAIL
About Solar do Paco
Solar do Paço is a beautifully restored 14th-century manor house located in the charming village of Algoz, just 10 minutes from the Algarve’s stunning coastline. Once home to the Marquis of Sarria, Fernando Ruiz de Castro, brother of the famous Inês de Castro, this historic estate is the only one of five palaces in Algoz that still stands today.
In addition to the palace itself, which is the jewel of Solar do Paço, the venue features a variety of spaces for events. These include the Barn, the Theatre, the Stables, and a modern Event Room that can accommodate up to 500 guests.
With over two hectares of land, 1,600 square meters of covered space, and 6,000 square meters of beautiful gardens, Solar do Paço provides a versatile and picturesque setting for any celebration.
-
Quinta do Paço is located in the serene village of Algoz, in the heart of the Algarve region of Portugal. The estate is just a short 10-minute drive from the Algarve's scenic coastline, offering easy access to both the tranquility of the countryside and the vibrancy of coastal life.
Situated about 35 minutes from Faro Airport, the main international gateway to the Algarve, Quinta do Paço is conveniently accessible for guests traveling from abroad. The surrounding area provides a peaceful, rural atmosphere, yet is close enough to the tourist hubs for guests to enjoy the best of both worlds—quiet charm and the excitement of nearby beach resorts.
Taxis, shuttles, or any other transportation can be easily organised with our planner.
