Fantástico

A casa e contexto em que está inserida é absolutamente fantástico e tem tudo o que uma família pode querer para descansar, relaxar, passear, brincar e refrescar. Fomos 3 adultos, 3 teenagers e uma cadela e ficámos todos rendidos. Sem dúvida a repetir!

A paz do monte

Adorámos este lugar magnífico, onde dá para desfrutar o quase silêncio da natureza. Tanto o nascer como o pôr de sol podem ser apreciados logo ali, a escassos metros da porta entrando no maravilhoso jardim. A cascata com a pequena piscina é uma verdadeira delícia nos dias de calor. A casa em geral e a cozinha estão muito bem equipadas, oferecendo todo o conforto, apenas faltando talvez um forno para a preparação de determinados pratos. A vista da paisagem com a barragem do Alqueva aos pés é única. Temos a constante sensação de estarmos inseridos numa imagem dum postal. E os nossos cães também adoraram!

Semaine de paix en Alentejo

Nous avons passé une semaine si privilégiée dans cette maison...semaine de sérénité apportée par la vue extraordinaire depuis la terrasse, ciel bleu azur, coucher de soleil somptueux, manteau d'étoiles la nuit! maison joliment décoré, jardin vaste et fleuri agrémenté d'un bassin avec fontaine où l'on pouvait se rafraîchir. Il est vrai que j'aurai préféré une vraie piscine( d'où ma note de 4 étoiles et non 5)! Mais je sais que j'y reviendrai...

Traumhafter Erholungsurlaub!

Wir haben eine Woche zu 6 in diesem Haus verbracht und haben jeden Tag sehr genossen. Der Ausblick ist in echt noch viel schöner als auf den Fotos und das komplette Haus mit dem riesigen Garten (und überall versteckt sind kleine Plätze zum Verweilen) strahlt sie sehr viel Ruhe aus - perfekt für einen erholsamen Urlaub. In der Umgebung kann man einiges machen und unternehmen und hier kann man Portugal abseits vom Tourismus von einer sehr schönen und ursprünglichen Seite entdecken. Aber selbst wenn man eben einfach mal nichts tun möchte, ist dieses Haus ideal und einfach nur perfekt. Das einzige, was uns gefehlt hat, war ein echter Pool. Das Becken mit dem Wasserfall ist zwar schon ganz nett, aber für eine Woche dann doch irgendwann mal zu klein (vor allem für unsere Kinder)! Carina, die Hausverwalterin war ebenso sehr toll, unkompliziert, freundlich und immer hilfsbereit. Für alle, die also mal Ruhe suchen, einfach nur abschalten möchten, der perfekte Ort!

Tranquilidade, cenário magnifico e refrescante.

A vista deslumbrante sobre o Alqueva torna o cenário tranquilo e acolhedor, proporcionando umas férias de descanso, longe do stress da cidade. A cascata a dois passos da casa, para além de dar um toque romântico e zen ao jardim, é imprescindível na hora de lidar com o calor alentejano. O miradouro no topo da propriedade permite admirar o por-do sol deslumbrante. Recomenda-se vivamente. Esperamos voltar.

VUE MAGNIFIQUE ET CALME ASSURE !

Nous avons passés un séjour très agréable dans cette villa très bien équipée. Le site est vraiment magnifique avec une vue superbe sur le lac avec un petit plus la nuit : la voie lactée. L'endroit est vraiment très calme, la cascade d'eau est un plus pour se rafraîchir en journée lors des fortes chaleurs, celle-ci a été très apprécié par les enfants... Mme Carina Nielsen nous a très bien reçu et a été aux petits soins pour notre famille tout le long du séjour ainsi que le régisseur qui s'occupe du domaine. En bref séjour inoubliable que nous recommandons vivement !!! Passamos uma estadia muito agradável nesta casa bem equipada. O local é muito bonito com uma vista deslumbrante para o lago, à noite se vé a Via Láctea. O lugar é realmente tranquilo, a cascata no jardim serviu a refrescarse durante o tempo quente, foi muito popular com as crianças ... Ms Carina Nielsen nos recebeu muito bem e fez o suficiente para a nossa família durante toda a estadia para nos sentirmos bem. O supervisor da casa tambem foi muito simpatico. Em fim foi uma curta estadia memorável que recomendamos !!!
