Monte da Estrela - Country House & Spa

Wonderful place, beautiful hotel, nice people.. and the food?? OMG amazing! Dont waste more time! Book it. I am coming back next year! Hope that you keepnup with the good job. Also the local products such as olive oil, wine are a must have to try and to buy as a souvenir.

Our stay at this country house was absolutely incredible. Every detail has been meticulously thought out, showcasing the owner’s impeccable taste. Beyond the beautifully designed interiors, the property offers a range of excellent facilities— a spa, swimming pool, game room, cozy fireplace, and more. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Brites, during our stay. Her warm welcome and attentiveness truly enhanced the experience. Brites is not only a gracious host, but her genuine care and empathy made us feel instantly at home. We’ll definitely return and highly recommend this tranquil retreat for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy a few days of relaxation.

What an amazing place, with even more amazing staff running it! We really enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious and super clean. The grounds were well maintained, with incredible views of the surrounding landscape. The food was delicious. All around I'd highly recommend staying here.

This place is amazing. But the most amazing experience in Monte da Estrela is the people: owners and staff, they are tireless, empathic, always helping everyone, even when they don't have to. If you come for the landscape, place and food, you'll stay because of all this wonderful human beings.

We boekten de suite voor 4 nachten. De kamer was heel mooi. Alle modern comfort, maar met een boho jasje. Praktisch en rustgevend in natuurlijke tinten. Het hotel heeft meerdere zalige hoekjes, eentje voor ontbijt of diner, een ander waar je een boek kan lezen moest je niet in het zwembad willen, eentje waar je spelletjes kan spelen en nog één waar je ’s nachts naar de sterren kan kijken met een wijntje. De ligging is prachtig voor wie er tussenuit wil. Je moet ongeveer 2 kilometer onverharde weg tussen de olijfboomgaarden rijden om aan deze oase van rust te geraken. De ontvangst is zeer hartelijk. Drankje, nat doekje … Onze complimenten aan Junior voor wie niets teveel was. Hij reserveerde een restaurantje, gaf ons info over uitstapjes... Niet alleen Junior was top, maar ook Vitoria (kokkin) en Manuela (schoonmaak) hadden die lach. We waren er ook in het weekend toen de eigenares daar was. Een gesprek met haar verklaarde veel. Het oog voor detail in de inrichting en de tafeldekking kwam duidelijk van haar. Het diner was heel lekker en net daarom vonden we het spijtig dat we niet vooraf wisten welke dagen we in het hotel konden eten. Als we ooit nog een pauze nodig hebben komen we zeker terug,
