Exceeds expectation. If you like Four Seasons, this far outshines. Property, accommodations, staff, and location are outstanding. We stayed in beautiful hotels in Portugal--this one is far/away the finest. Location is in the center of the historic, beautiful, charming village, which cannot be missed for meals, strolling, photos, etc. Highly recommend making the trip to the Arouca Geo Park for the Paiva Walkways and the suspension pedestrian bridge--experience of a lifetime! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3ba5527a-33ba-417a-b8af-6a17a9f67387-1757029042550.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8fd3f041-8182-405c-b0f7-9361972518f5-1757029043465.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/364b7e7b-5f04-4bec-a73f-7f6141784661-1757029043497.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8b7a918c-10fb-4686-87a2-f35490364f21-1757029043345.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Derik Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Could really not fault the staff or any part of the hotel. Very genuinely friendly staff on arrival, breakfast, and any other time needed. Hotel renovation has been done to very high standard, incorporating many parts of the old monastery. (Make sure you take in the monastery museum connected, so you can see the before and after) The outside pool is just wonderful (with the right weather). It's big enough to have a proper swim, but you're still able to stand in the deep end. Again, friendly staff at the pool side bar with drinks and food available. Indoor pool and sauna are great, and again, very high standard to the finish. Some may say the location is just a bit far from anywhere, but I think this is the point of this hotel. It's about getting away from it all and just relaxing. Certainly would recommend and would return. At the moment, as it only opened a few months ago (April 2025), it's still a Hidden Gem. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/55d00240-0962-455a-b6fc-8b3b9c32a385-1753034735820.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/758a09c3-6ed6-45a5-96b6-d6266bf207fb-1753034735815.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4c6e59ba-ffcd-4b72-84a0-43e616100575-1753034735854.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/160e6d37-d523-4c9d-a994-b80dc40de0d9-1753034735997.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jon Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mousseau Aug 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### WOWWW le lieu est magique, le service est magique, les chambres sont belles, le personnel est aux petits soins. l'hôtel vient d'ouvrir, c'est une parenthèse magique ##### Mousseau Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ana Rita Jun 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bom gosto e conforto!
