The stay at montimerso was suberb. Breathtaking views, very comfortable room and shared facilities, great food and the staff was very supportive and friendly. We will definitely come back to relax and enjoy this experience again!

Great place

The location is truly breathtaking, the only thing you hear are birds and crickets, absolute silence. The sunset view over the plain is a work of art and during nightfall, the sky is full of stars, be prepared to be amazed with it. Breakfast was really good and the staff was incredibly nice. One of the best places I've stayed in Portugal so far.

The only thing I missed were two very little things but nothing which made my stay less enjoyable; better comfortable chair / laying chairs options perhaps at the rooms terrace and that the restaurant was exactly closed on sunday and monday when we were there was very unfortunate but again here we got great help and phenomenal recommendations from the hotel staff.

Great very remote location with a spectacular view of the alqueva lake. Comfortable bed and a very nice room. Friendly and very helpful staff. From check in to check out everything was great! We particularly loved the dogs (Estrella!) and the very quiet pool area. If you want to relax in the middle of nowhere this is the place to be!

The dogs live in a house, which door you must pass to get to your room. When they are outside, they react very protective/agressive. It happened to us three times during our two night stay. I had to get to reception and ask to help me pass twice. And I like dogs! This should not be in a hotel in that price range, thats more a B&B situation.

We had a private pool on the terrace, with a spacious room

Nothing to add :) The restaurant a bit below expectations / service was fine but food was only OK

Just the perfect place for a rest and recovery.. Everything was clean and neat, the pool and surroundings are incredible with Alqueva always on the sight, breakfast is very tasty and fresh, staff was 100% friendly and nice on all occasions, always with a smile on their faces, all of them have spoiled our little dog (Ellie) including the other sweet dogs in the villa. all in all, absolutely recommend it - peaceful, quiet and full of positivity, where you can really connect with nature!

We stayed in different type of the room. First night room with a lake view without a plugged pool. 2nd night stayed with a view of countryside with a plugged pool. Both room are amazing with spectacular view. Our favorite is the one facing country side with plugged pool as it is facing Monsaraz castle. We traveled with our dog and the property is dog friendly hotel. This is the place where you wanna get away from hustle bustle life. Definitely will be back to this hotel. Not forgot to mentioned that the staff is super helpful and friendly.

Handicapped bathroom needs to have more grab bars for easier access.

Wonderful facility for a quiet stay and trekking experience. Good location for star gazing, albeit not truly a dark sky location.

Nothing

The room and view were excellent, as were the staff. The food was out of this world. I would also mention that there was no sound at all making a very peaceful and relaxing get away. Highly recommended if you want tranquility.

It is hard to dislike anything here but if I had to give them a recommendation - the restaurant is just a little bit too much like a cafe. In the evening it is a little bright and lacks a little atmosphere.

This is a gem of a place. But beware and do your research - it is pretty much middle of nowhere - which is one of its plus points! We had the Alqueva suite with private plunge pool and view of the lake - stunning. We had a flawless sky and so really got to appreciate the stars and the milky way. The room is huge and beautifully presented. The staff were amazing and could not have been more helpful - booking trips for us and generally being there for everything we needed. We will be going back to see the spring in full bloom.

Our dinner was not anything special

Beautiful architecture Everything we needed Well positioned in the area Staff very pleasant

Stayed in September 2022

We think the evening dinner could have been better. More choice perhaps . Also flies were a problem . Maybe due to the time of year.

Breakfast very good. Location superb. Very peaceful and relaxing

Stayed in September 2022

Telephones are needed in the bedrooms and by the pool bar to contact reception. Very limited wine list and quality of food average

Excellent location and very pleasant staff
