9.4/10 Exceptional! (341 reviews)
"Breakfast was great, food and staff! Spa was messy, lots of dirty towels everywhere. Had dinner in the secondary restaurant in the hotel, food and service were not close to what you'd expect form a place like Casa da Montanha. Restaurant staff was not friendly at all."
