Contrast offers intense and sharp experiences. In Sofia’s Place you breath the local community spirit and culture in a sophisticated and cosmopolitan accommodation, in the heart of one of the most exclusive, dreamy and romantic places around. As Jardim do Mar itself, Sofia's Place offers the local and the universal, the unique and the diverse, the rural environment and the urbane comfort. Sofia was born in the pitoresque village. And as roots are kept intact, Jardim do Mar became more cosmopolitan as it attracted artists (writers, poets, painters), surfers and nature and tranquility lovers from all over.

Camané releases new album


Do Amor e dos Dias is the new album that Camané, the famous Portuguese Fado singer, releases today. His albuns also feature the lyrics in English on the CD booklet.

Fado is probably the oldest urban folk music in the world. The Fado is, by self-earned right, the very expression of the Portuguese soul and the emotional heart of its people. Themes like heartbreaking love matters, melancholy, misfortune, longing for someone or past happier times, that are gone away, and the ups and downs of life dominate the traditional Fado (means Destiny).
