Hotel Sao Lourenco
The staff at the front desk were very pleasant. Our room was recently renovated as were all the rooms I believe. The breakfast was good and included fresh croissants. The parking spots were nice and wide and well lit. Overall we had a great experience and would book there again.

Amazing place. Truly beautiful and tranquil. The whole facility was immaculate and very well looked after. Such a peaceful stay and a very warm welcome from the owners and team (Patrick) who could not have done anything more to make the stay perfect.
