“Magical, enchanting and downright phenomenal. Conglobo is a travelers' paradise tucked away from the tourist hustle and bustle of the Algarve. It's an oasis filled with fun and laughter. It's a laid back haven for those with a passion for traveling and sharing their experiences, for meeting and making new friends. But above all it's an instant home from home for everyone, from every corner of the globe”
"Had the most amazing experience with my stay at Conglobo. Even changed my flights just to stay one more day. Such a warm welcome and that feeling of being part of the Conglobo familyI can’t really do justice in words my experience but I can say I gained some friends during my 5 days that I will have contact with for a very long time. Special, unique and full of good vibes"

WHO ARE WE AND WHAT IS CONGLOBO?
We chose the name Conglobo as it means "with the world" and we love exploring the world and the people and experiences that come from that! So we decided to create spaces that can host those great chats, like minds and kindred connections! Were out and about exploring and planning future projects at the moment so not taking bookings but were excited to see you soon!
They say food is the ingredient that binds us together! We believe that great food nourishes the soul and body and that can only be multiplied when shared with friends. Family meal times are where its at!
We shop at local markets to find the freshest ingredients and cultivate relationships within our community. Love from seed to plate.
Conglobo has quite the story! Together with a bunch of legends we drove the yellow bus across Europe from the UK to Portugal where it was united with our first bus baby - the Zebra! Since then we've changed locations 3 times from Figueira to Barão de São João and Pêra - all in the South West corner of Portugal. For now the busses are stored in a safe spot whilst were out and about capturing more dreams.
We feel so lucky to have made some talented & creative friends -during our projects in Sri Lanka, Portugal and out and about in the world - that helped us build and beautify the the spaces we share with you (Thank you Jonny & Howie).
So come along and get amongst it - Mi casa es tu casa !
