Casa da Ti Maria Pereira, hotel in Monsanto

Casa da Ti Maria Pereira offers accommodations in Monsanto, a 7-minute walk from Monsanto Castle. Featuring quiet street views, this vacation home also comes with free Wifi.

The instructions for handling pick-up from the town's edge parking lot were perfect (can't drive in due to small roadways). The cute home is exactly how it appeared in pictures. There was good Wifi, heating, and hot water for the shower. All necessary toiletries, coffee, tea, and breakfast were provided. In addition, when the host tried to help us make dinner reservations and learned all the restaurants were closed for a party, she made us a wonderful dinner at her place instead. She also provided a labeled map that in conjunction with our prior research, helped us make sure we didn't miss anything interesting while we were in town.

It is located in the outskirts of Relva and Monsanto village can be reached even by foot if the weather conditions allow so. There is short road 1.7 km long starts directly from the house and leads to the backyard of Monsanto. There is wonderful view from the house. Communication with the host via booking was good. Nice neighbors that helped us with the parking.

    Monsanto has been the highlight of our trip to Portugal and Spain so far. It is so authentic and real, the buildings are amazing and the views are outstanding. The walk up to the Castle is a little challenging but so worth the effort. We were there for the medieval festival and were made very welcome by the locals and we had some memorable times there. If you are in the Douro Valley, make the effort to head to Monsanto if you want to visit an authentic and historic village.

    Monsanto is the most unique small town we visited on our 3wk trip to Portugal. You can start to see the massive boulders from the base of the hillside and then it's 5 km straight up winding narrow road. You will need your host to show you where to park.

    It is a good idea to book a place for the night.

    It is a good idea to book a place for the night. The views are so incredible and unique you will want to experience day and night in amongst the boulders. There is a wonderful hike to the ruins above the boulder village. There is spectacular lighting in the evening. The village is quite out of the way for travelling. This was our second visit to Monsanto so we knew to book for the night. Lots of unique places to eat. We ate at our hosts' spot and it was great. Once you arrive amongst the boulders, you don't have to leave until your stay is over. You can find all you need there.

    Very unique. Great trekking up to the fort (short but steep). We really enjoyed the “rock village”. Our meal at Pestitos and Granitos was delicious. We recommend Monsanto fro those looking for a unique experience.

    It's a very peaceful place with lots of great views and we found a lovely bistro to eat at. Some of the roads are very steep and you have to park and walk so for someone not so good on their feet this wouldn't be suitable

    Casa do Castello is in a great location in the old town of Monsanto. The narrow cobblestone streets set the feeling of something very special. The unit we were in was decorated very nicely and very comfortable. The bathroom appeared to be new. The balcony overlooked the beautiful valley below. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful. In addition, they own a nearby restaurant of the same name. We ate both lunch and breakfast there and both were delicious. We highly recommend Casa Do Castello for a stay and the restaurant for meals.

    Monsanto is a beautiful stone town!! Our Hostess, Eloiza was very caring!! She fetched us with her little electric car to take our luggage to the cottage. Beautiful, clean house with everything we needed. We took our own food and made a lovely supper with friends in the big dining room of the nextdoor house. Super wonderful!! We went up to the castle late afternoon and had a lovely sunset before the rain set in. This house is a must to stay in when visiting Monsanto!!

    Very good location, very kind owners, very typical house, great place to spend some days, well furnished and equipped! Just lovely. If you visit Monsanto it is an awesome place to rest and to prepare for the climb to the castle. On other opportunities I'll try to return. The space is huge, there is a space to cook, you can step outside and have a nice view of the valley, the windows are protected with mosquito nets and it had AC

    The location is amazing, also probably the only place in town that has parking. Spacious room, with a well equipped kitchenette. Host is very friendly, and eager to please. We gave her our dietary restrictions and preferences, the evening before, and a fine breakfast eas made for us. If you plan to visit Monsanto, this is the perfect place (we stayed in the "Studio" room)

    This area of Portugal is very remote and while there are villages there are no facilities like supermarkets or restaurants (that were open). The breakfast provided was excellent but there was no fridge or even tea making facilities in the room and no opportunity to have a meal in the hotel. This was unfortunate as there was no restaurant open within a 30km radius.

    The hosts were extremely friendly. We felt like we had known each other our whole lives. Beautiful view and great location. Francisco and his wife also booked a restaurant for us so that we were not hungry late at night. Next time, when we come back to Monsanto, we are staying at the Old house. Thanks to the hosts for a wonderful experience.

    Absolutely loved our stay here. The room was very comfortable and the property is beautiful. Short drive or a hike up to Monsanto. Breakfast was lovely, and mostly sourced from the property. Ingrid was so helpful with recommendations, directions, and even helped us make dinner reservations. I highly recommend this property.

    Fantastic location to explore Monsanto. Cozy cottage with some basic amenities. There were some problems with the property (caused by previous guests) that the host was rectifying when we arrived. He was very apologetic and managed to make the property suitable for our stay.

    Everything was so clean and very traditional chic. Loved the way they took a ruin and incorporated into a lodge. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be coming back to this hotel once it’s warmer to use the pool.

    This is a wonderful place to stay. A little out of the way, but not hard to find, and close to Monsanto. During our stay, the oranges were ripe - and delicious. The breakfast was excellent, and Ingrid was very helpful. I'd love to return.
