Intimate, 68-seat Three Maries Jazz Club boasts evocative dark walls and charcoal limewash accents. Three Maries jazz club was named after three Maries with French, royal connections: Marie Mancini, an Italian noblewoman and first love of King Louis XIV of France; Maria Theresa was Queen of France from 1660 to 1683 as wife of King Louis XIV; and Marie Louise of Austria, Napoleon Bonaparte’s second wife and a Hapsburg princess.

Three Maries Jazz Club will host live music from musicians, both locals and visitors. Regular performers include Or Shovaly Plus and the Glen David Andrews Band. Guests can also expect frequent brass band performances and live piano sets, with a lively second line brass band on Fridays.

Three Maries Jazz Club offers an exclusive food and beverage menu, and will be open Thursday–Saturday.

The Royal Bar, in the lobby, features a horseshoe-shaped, brass bar; marble and wooden floors; chevron wood; and limewashed walls with black trim. An original antique glass map adorned with gold leaf will remain on display in The Royal Bar.

Revive and Relax at Finisterra Spa at Martinhal Sagres Family Beach Resort

Most visitors remember Portugal’s Algarve for its 100-plus miles of golden, sun-drenched beaches. We remember this southern coast of Portugal for the quiet, white-washed villages and dramatic cliffs of its far western corner. And for the superbly serene Finisterra Spa at Martinhal Sagres Family Beach Resort, where we first discovered what a massage and facial could do for aching shoulders and faces parched from days of hiking along the sun-washed clifftops. Neither I nor my husband, Tim, had been fans of spas before that trip, but Finisterra made us believers.
