Beautiful building with well planned extensions. Meals on the terrace were extremely enjoyable.

Debra Australia

The meals were as delicious as the pool and vice versa.

Kavesh United States of America

Beautiful palace and grounds which have been converted into a hotel. Rooms are very large (even the standard) and well-appointed in a minimalist decor. The pool area is great, as was breakfast. Well worth the short walk through town to walk through the lower gardens (not accessible from the hotel directly).

Mark United States of America

Amazing place. Large rooms. Comfortable bed. high pressure shower. Great building, lobby, gardens, swimming pool.

Michael United States of America

it is a gorgeous property. the home is historic but the rooms are very comfortable with a modern feel. the breakfast was so delicious. We also ate dinner at the hotel and it was our best meal in Portugal. The pool was lovely and walking the grounds was so relaxing.

Lynne United States of America

Beautiful hotel, superb accommodations! Peaceful and charming stay.

Sylvia United States of America

Away from the bustle this is a little renovated palace with spacious modern rooms attached to them overlooking the renovated gardens. Breakfast was good and substantial and the dinner we had was very good as well.

Anthony Portugal

  • Hi, We are considering a one night stay with you at the end of September . Will you please advise how far it is to walk into the local town / nearby restaurants for an evening meal and whether you will be serving evening meals at that time - Thanks
    The local village is right next to the Pousada and in little more than 5 minutes you can walk to the center. It's a very small village with just a couple restaurants but here in the Pousada we do serve evening meals every day.
