AUTHENTIC ARCHITECTURE
“Seen from above it looks like a crab". This is what it says about the architecture of the building in a specialist publication. But apart from wanting to create a building that fitted well with the surrounding landscape, we didn’t want it to interfere with the well-being of the Island. The lack of any public infrastructure meant that we had to come up with ideas for producing energy, making drinking water and dealing with the drains.Intimate, Atmospheric and Cozy
Estaminé is open for lunch time everyday, all year round. We serve freshly cooked food with a traditional algarvian influence such as gorgeous algarvian salads to grilled fish, mouth watering “Beach” Prawns, “Bulhão Pato” clams and authentic Octopus Salad.
