Amorim Luxury Group and JNcQUOI have unveiled JNcQUOI Club Comporta, a sprawling 405-acre retreat set along Portugal’s wild Alentejo coastline.
Slated for completion in 2028, the BREEAM-certified destination will redefine immersive living through a fusion of restrained architecture, sustainability, and elevated hospitality.
A natural sanctuary
Envisioned by Vincent Van Duysen—with native landscaping by Vladimir Djurovic—JNcQUOI Club Comporta’s architecture blends abstraction with warmth, marked by pigmented concrete forms, terracotta tile, cork accents, and green roofs that dissolve into the landscape.
“When [founders Paula Amorim and Miguel Guedes De Sousa] approached me, I knew this project was an opportunity to create something truly unique—one driven by deep respect for the land and a vision to craft a sanctuary where design and nature merge effortlessly,” says Van Duysen.
The retreat will offer 64 private villas and 94 freestanding guest pavilions—each designed to dissolve into the native pine forest—as well as 34 hotel pavilions. Each residence embraces a horizontal language of design, with wide openings, rich natural materials, and seamless transitions between indoors and out.
“Every space and detail captures the purity and serenity of its surroundings,” Van Duysen adds, describing the vision as “sensorial, immersive, organic, holistic, pure, and harmonious.”
Lifestyle at JNcQUOI Club Comporta
The property will be anchored by the Clubhouse, a vibrant lifestyle hub with three restaurants, a cigar lounge, two bars, a wine cellar, and a Fashion Clinic retail outpost.
The holistic wellness program will include an athletic club and spa with cryotherapy and high-performance studios, a racket club, and a kids club, while outdoor pursuits range from the family pool to the David McLay Kidd-designed Dunas Golf Course.
Two private access points will lead guests to the Sand Dunes Natural Beach or the JNcQUOI Beach Club, a refined seaside destination that mirrors the architecture’s elemental tone.
