A very small, quaint hotel just outside a small town with good restaurant options. The hotel reception was very helpful. The breakfast was incredible. We will definitely stay longer next time to enjoy the hotel more!
Positive: Very spacious accommodation with daily cleaning service, comprehensive introduction to the local area (restaurants and excursion destinations) and an outstanding (!) breakfast (if you don't arrive too late, <1 hour before closing 😉)
This place was amazing -not only the beautiful setting but the facilities and kindness of the staff and manager were exceptional.Hope to go back soon.👍😃
Stayed for two nights in April. Wish we had booked for longer. Unique and relaxing property in countryside. Special mention for owner who was so helpful in identifying places for us the visit. Would definitely revisit.
Very nice lovely location with a beautiful arranged garden and pool. Rooms are very small and have only limited space for the luggage. Extras for later evening after 7pm have to be organized before. Excellent breakfast and service. Recommended restaurants not as good as described. Sun-umbrellas not movable. Dog shouting during the night.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not sure if I would recommend
Not the greatest value for money.
Room: Small, not a lot of space. No air-conditioning!!!! It gets really warm in the room and the fan they provide is extremely noisy
Cleanliness: Room was not really clean, the floor was dusty and so were the cabinets
Location: Would only recommend if you just want to stay around Odeceixe or Aljezur, not Lagos or further South
Service: No real options of what to eat at the hotel, apart from if you book it in advance. Andre was actually lovely and recommended a lot of places to go.
Value for money: expensive for what it offers, the photos are very different from what the hotel actually looks like.

Sehr gepflegte Anlage. Sehr schönes und sauberes Zimmer. Das Frühstück ist qualitativ hochwertig und super lecker. Danke!
Zeer mooie gelegen in een prachtige tuin en boomgaard maar je hebt wel een auto nodig. Aangenaam ingerichte kamer met voldoende comfort. Alles was netjes. Verzorgd en lekker ontbijt maar er waren onvoldoende tafels zodat we moesten wachten tot er een tafel vrij was. Vriendelijk personeel.
Das Hotel hat eine gute Lage zur Rota Vicentina, Frühstück war sehr gut. Sehr schöne Anlage, geschmackvolle Architektur. Das Zimmer war etwas zu klein und auf der Terrasse gab es nur einen Sessel, der zum Tisch passte (daneben ein Sitzsack)
Leider konnten wir den wunderschönen Pool aufgrund des schlechten Wetters nicht geniessen. Ich hatte mich sehr auf einen Tag am Pool gefreut. Das Hotel ist wunderschön, das Frühstücksbuffet umfangreich und alles sehr lecker. Alle Personen waren sehr freundlich! Leider einen Punkt Abzug im Komfort, aufgrund der grossen Abgelegenheit. Auch weil es kein Abendessen vor Ort gab. Immer muss mit dem Auto ein paar Minuten gefahren werden.
Aber absonsten top und ich würde wieder kommen!
Tolles etwas abgelegenes Hotel. Es gibt nur Frühstück, aber in der nahen Umgebung tolle Restaurants. Allerdings ist ein Auto zwingend notwendig
Wir waren Ende Oktober da, Temperaturen super. Allerdings haben die Zimmer keine Klimaanlage, wird im Sommer sicherlich sehr warm
Rundum zufrieden. Wir werden wieder zu Gast sein. Das beste Frühstück in Portugal und wir sind viel und lange unterwegs all die Jahre. So freundlich die Bedienung. Herzlichen Dank.
Estadia boa confortável muito bom para descansar pena os quartos nao terem ar condicionado e pena termos que sair devido aos incêndios na zona, mas de resto muito agradavel
Maravilhoso! Desde a localização, a simpatia dos colaboradores, o conforto, a decoração… tudo de qualidade irrepreensível.

Super étape
Un très bon accueil par une jeune hôtesse, ponctué par un porto de bienvenue... Notre chambre très confortable en pleine nature et un petit déjeuner copieux et de très gande qualité....Une excellente adresse...
The room was really nice, had big bathroom with good shower and a comfortable bed. Also very clean and to a very high standard. Amazing breakfast, I ate so much of it! Stunning peaceful location which felt really safe and the pool was so nice. A wonderful relaxing stay in what felt like total luxury. Staff were also very friendly and helpful. Make sure you drink the gift of port on the first night otherwise the cleaners take it away! We were very disappointed as were too tired after our flight in the first day but had been really looking forward to it.
Fomos muito bem recebidos e tratados durante os 4 dias em que ficamos no hotel.
Excelente café da manhã e area comum externa formidável. Madeira do quarto um pouco barulhenta. No geral muito bom, mas caro.
