Location:
Nestled in Olhos de Água, Albufeira, surrounded by iconic cliffs, golden beaches, and traditional fishing villages.

Residences:
33 spacious one‑ and two‑bedroom suites and villas, each with Bosch kitchens, private outdoor spaces, and interiors inspired by Algarve’s natural rhythm and culture.

Dining:
Two lifestyle‑driven venues by TUPUQ — Casa da Praia for relaxed daytime dining, and TUPUQ Restaurant & Bar on the rooftop for Mediterranean flavors, cocktails, and music into the night.

Wellbeing:
A holistic spa with sensory showers, sauna, hammam, and Thalgo products; Technogym fitness center; and two outdoor pools, including an adults‑only pool with sweeping coastal views.

Personalized service:
Guests are welcomed with traditional cake, seasonal fruits, and curated touches by a dedicated Guest Experience Manager.

Hyatt’s Expansion in Portugal
This opening builds on Hyatt’s recent launches in Lisbon and Madeira, with plans to triple its room count in Portugal by 2027. Masana Algarve embodies the Destination by Hyatt ethos — connecting guests to the spirit of place through authentic design, curated experiences, and warm hospitality.
