"A super place in a very central location. Spotlessly clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful, Deborah was very kind to us and helped with all our queries."

"The hotel was lovely, however the spa and outside areas all need a bit of a facelift."

"What an absolutely beautiful place. The room is very nice and comfortable. The view across the valley this morning was stunning."

"Great host, very accommodating. Although rustic the accommodation was really well equipped. Enjoyed the games room and the lakeside beach. We didn’t get time to use the kayaks, but they were available to use. Enjoyed the boulle’s and amazing views and it’s a great place to get off the beaten track. It is reached by a long and bumpy road, it’s well worth it to relax."

"Pascal and Marie are very attentive and lovely hosts. We were greeted and guided to the house by Eulalia (the sweet and informative house manager). The house is fantastic, the sauna and the pool got a lot of use. The kitchen is well equipped. The house is located in the scenic mountain region of Monchique, a 10 minute walk to town down the garden trail. The the gardens are lush and we had a fantastic time exploring the region. We would highly recommend this beautiful place."

"Lovely large room with kitchen and patio with hot tub. On seafront."

"Wonderful view of the castle and cathedral lit up at night. The staff very kind and helpful. To save water especially in the Algarve, not necessary to change towels daily, in some hotels guests leave towels on the floor if they want them washed and I'd suggest new covers for the armchairs and sofas in the lounge area"

"We had a wonderful overnight escape in Monchique. The spa circuit was a perfect way to start our stay. "

"Despite our late arrival (after midnight), we were welcomed by the property manager Eulália, who met us at the local supermarket and shown us the way to the villa and gave us a thorough guide to the property. The villa itself was lovely with everything you need for your stay. The surrounding garden was beautiful with stunning views of the valley below and neighbouring hillsides. I can imagine the private pool being an absolute godsend in the summer months, but could have been a little warmer for our autumn visit (I myself swam in it most days - took a couple of minutes to get used to the cool water - very refreshing all the same). The log burner was great to have for the evening time and there's an unlimited amount of wood available, supplied by the owner. to the location and the terrain, hiring a car an absolute necessity when staying at this villa. Monchique is a five minute journey and the nearby towns + the south and west coastlines are relatively closeby, no longer than an hour's drive. We even drove to and from Lisbon for a day trip, but I'd recommend using the A22 and A2 toll roads rather than the road from Monchique leading in a north easterly direction (very winding- so not good for travel sickness). Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend staying in this villa."
