The Quinta Azul with its four Casas (Lorenzo, Luisa, Julia und Amelie), is located in an idyllic setting in the natural reserve of Seixe-Tal on the Costa Vicentina, in the southwest of Portugal. The Seixe is the boundary river between Alentejo and Algarve and flows into the Atlantic Ocean at Praia de Odeceixe, approximately 1500 m from the 10000 m² property.

A Quinta is equal to a Spanish Finca and is a rural estate, normally consisting of several buildings and stables. Often, the Quinta was owned by a Patron (a big landowner) and was rented out to peasants. The feudal landowner received part of the rent in form of natural produce, the remainder stayed with the family that was running the farm. The Quinta's buildings, as they remain today, were restored in a traditional manner in the years 1997-2000 with ecologically friendly materials (cork, chestnut and clay). Due to the hillside location, they are offset. The houses were named after the owner's children and are family friendly and equipped with modern amenities. The mix of traditional Portuguese and rational "German" furnishings, is supposed to tie economics and ambience together in a sensible manner. The property spans one hectare and has fruit and olive trees, as well as bushes and flowers and is traversed by paved walkways. There is a natural pond system (no chlorine) on the property, which offers the opportunity for a swim from May through November. Next to the pond system, there is a children's playground with wooden climbing contraptions, swings, seesaws and also a steel cable railway. The Quinta receives its electricity from the Santa Clara dam, about 40 km from the Quinta, in the direction of Ourique. The drinking water is harvested from deep-wells, heated with solar energy and disinfected with a UV filter.
