ホテル ルーラル モンテ ダ プロヴェンサ(Hotel Rural Monte da Provença)

Such a charming location. Unfortunately we were only there only one night and it rained so we could not explore the grounds like we would have liked to. We had a delicious dinner (pre-order to give the chef time to plan/prepare). We moved into the living room for post dinner wine by the fire place and had wonderful conversation with another guest. Our suite was wonderful and had everything we needed, we only wish we had stayed longer. Breakfast was breads, fruit, meat and cheeses on a buffet, but also hot options (eggs, bacon) A lovely retreat. We will return to enjoy more time.

This is a boutique hotel in every sense of the word.There are only ten rental rooms and they are uniquely different.The grounds are lovely and very walkable.

The property is beautiful in a lovely quiet setting. Great gardens around the pool, and nice outdoor eating areas with views. The pool was large, well kept and benefitted from several covered relaxing areas nearby. The hosts were friendly, caring and low key, it has a great balance of informality but with high standards. Fabulous food, for breakfast lunch or dinner if you wanted it. Elvas is only ten minutes away with a variety of places to eat if you can pull yourself away from Bia’s cooking! A daily special for dinner adds another layer to what is a nice menu anyway we had the duck breast with a orange and honey sauce…..delicious. Our room was large, well equipped, and a very spacious bathroom. The indoor lounge and dining room were delightful too. We will be back.

Staying 2 nights, by arrival lady/owner was grumpy, we were “very difficult” clients asking for coathangers (finally arrived), tissues (not avalable) and much more important toilet kept running. Hosts tried to fix it but could not. After 24 hours could not use in-room toilet anymore. The whole place, rooms and pool included was infested with flies, no fly repetent available, had to purchase it privately Breakfast products were from budget chain (Aldi??) Staff was doing their outmost, very friendly and helpfull but could solve problems

Booked this property using *********** - needed to cancel due to travel chaos at European airports. Impossible to get a response. It’s ok if you want to charge me for the cancellation but at least give me the courtesy of an answer. *********** has been less than helpful as well.

Hôtel safe and clean. Hôtel que merece 5 estrelas ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tudo e perfeito O Melhor hôtel sem duvida do Alentejo Obrigada de fazerem tudo para que passamos umas ferias de sonho ❤️❤️ Aconselhemos a todos de reservar neste paraiso. Ate para o ano

Great rural place with olive trees, vineyards, beautiful view of the countryside and the suite was outstanding. Host also has grounds you can walk and explore. We stayed for 3 days and really loved it. Male owner was super nice, had a small chat before checking out. Also the breakfast staff was outstanding, they treated us including our infant son like family

Great location for breaking the journey to Bilbao ferry. Open all year. Genuine and interesting hosts with great local knowledge. The Portuguese cook is an absolute Rock Star.serving up brilliant locally sourced produce to die for - she’s also delightfully social. Wine list is excellent and sensibly priced. We will return in January.

We stayed here for 3 nights last august, and it was a really more than wonderful experience. The location is close to Elvas, but tranquility is all around with the immaculate gardens and grounds all around. Gardens and pool are extremely well kept, and a lush for all scents. Everywhere beautiful tropical trees,flowers ,and awesome lavender plants. The whole place is a real oasis in the Alentejo. Breakfast was perfect, served on the amazing terras, so was lunch and diner. Everything fresh and tasty, compliments for the cook Bia, we loved her kitchen very much. The owners Joachim and Maria are real fine discreet and friendly hosts. We felt here really at home, and we did not like to leave after 3 nights. The only minus was that it was august high season holidays, so sometimes the noise of spoiled constantly screaming children disturbed the pastoral peace and beauty of the place. But far away from the poolside we find even more beautiful places to relax. Overal we can recommend the place very much. And we will visit Monte de Provenca again. Comparing price and quality , this is a 10 +++++ Muito obrigado e Adeus. Ignatius and Stefan from Belgium
