Guests praise the unique rooms in the main house, the spacious Casa do Rio, and the secluded Brandas bungalows for their peace and quiet.
“We absolutely loved the five star treatment. The staff gave us and the unique room that we stayed in in the main house, which they creatively turned in old wine, stomping room into a beautiful and chic exclusive space.”
“We stayed in Casa do Rio which was a huge and very good room.”
“The Brandas bungalows are fantastic and secluded for those looking for peace and quiet, the Elmo restaurant is a great value for money offering authentic portuguese cuisine and their own Lavandeira wine is also top quality.”

One guest found their upgraded room impractical and uncomfortable, citing issues with the open-plan bathroom, dark lower floor, and lack of a body mirror. Another guest found rooms in the main house to be less private.
“The room itself was not comfortable. The way it’s designed feels impractical – there is no door to the bathroom, so you can hear EVERYTHING from the bed, which is far from romantic. The lower floor of the room is not user-friendly, quite dark, and the coffee corner is located downstairs at the end of the room, while the sink and trash bin are at the end upstairs inside the bathroom area. Also, the stairs between the two levels have no railing. No body mirror, just a very small one from chest up at the bathroom. For the high price, especially for an upgraded room, we expected more comfort. The hotel itself is beautiful, but the room was not to our taste.”
“I was in the main house so a little less private”
