Wonderful retreat away from the crowds
We had an incredible stay in this lovely quiet village well away from the crowds of tourists. This gorgeous, large, cool, beautifully laid out house provided plenty of space for 8 people - 4 adults and 4 kids. The huge pool and garden area were fabulous and inside the big cool, airy, rooms equipped with a pool table, games room and a large comfy sitting room and spacious bedrooms meant everyone could spread out and properly relax. The kitchen is really well equipped and lovely to cook in, and the shaded outside eating space was just perfect. The surrounding area is really interesting - beautiful hill top towns, a massive lake and a great observatory meant there was lots to see but without competing with too many other tourists. We had some great meals out, recommended by the host. This was a truly perfect holiday! Thank you so much for having us.

Excelente para descobrir o Alqueva
Tudo exatamente como anunciado. A casa é perfeita para 8 pessoas (2 casais), grande área (excelente os 3 WC para banhos). Piscina e área circundante bem tratadas. Check in e check out acompanhados pela Tatiana com uma disponibilidade perfeita. A localização permite, em 30min de carro, conhecer a região do Alqueva e as suas principais praias fluviais. A melhorar apenas a quantidade de loiça disponível.

Excelente casa e espaço envolvente
Casa bonita, limpa, espaçosa e muito bem equipada. Recebeu-nos a Tatiana, muito simpática e eficiente. O único senão é o espaço mesmo à volta da Tapada: para andar a pé não é assim muito agradável. De carro, em poucos minutos há tudo o que é necessário!

Excelente propriedade no Alentejo rural
A propriedade está localizada nas aldeias de Montoito, com acesso fácil. Está a cerca de 12km de Reguengos de Monsaraz onde se podem encontrar supermercados, restaurantes e outros serviços. Gostámos muito da estadia, a casa é muito confortável e espaçosa, destacando o excelente alpendre, que proporciona jantares fantásticos à luz das velas, observando-se facilmente o céu estrelado da região Dark Sky. A piscina e espaço anexo são excelentes. Como nota negativa apenas o check-in tardio (17:30h) e o check-out muito cedo (10h) que nos fez perder quase um dia de usufruto da propriedade. Apesar de esta condicionante ter a ver com a necessidade de limpeza em tempo de COVID-19 acho que não deve ser suportada pelo hóspede. Recomendamos vivamente esta propriedade para quem procura descanso e isolamento.
