10/10 Exceptional
A hidden gem in the upper Alentejo
Honestly, we expected the hotel to be good, but it actually surpassed our expectations in pretty much every way.
The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the minute we walked in the door, but never fussy. We were able to just switch off and relax, but there was always someone around when we needed them. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all fantastic and the wine from the vineyard was terrific. We did the premium wine tasting of three of the wines and tried three others with meals and they were all a hit.
The room was comfortable, and more spacious than I anticipated, with a small terrace with a table and chairs overlooking the vineyard. The shower was hot and powerful, good cupboard space for if we had wanted a longer stay and the pool seemed very appealing, had the weather been better.
The grounds are extensive. We did a small trail walk, saw the deer they rear on the property and we loved it.
The recreation room with board games was also a really nice touch.
We'll be back.
