Parfait endroit pour un séjour paisible à Sao Vicente. L'ambiance calme qui y règne nous donnait envie de chuchoter. La vue de notre chambre était magnifique, surtout au lever du soleil où pouvait admirer le "montain glow". Le déjeuners inclut était composé d'ingrédients frais et variés, comme les fruits du jardins et le yogourt maison. Nous y avons passé deux nuits et on aurait voulu rester plus longtemps!

Worth the drive

It is a very nice hotel, but the road to get there is difficult and there is no restaurant at the hotel, at least in winter, so you have to get out to eat. The staff is very nice and the breakfast is among the best.

Comme à la maison

Petit hôtel excentré par rapport à Sao Vicente mais très agréable. Nous avions réservé l'appartement en rez de jardin. Il était parfaitement équipé. Le personnel de l'hôtel est particulièrement sympathique et disponible. L'hôtel dispose d'un portager dans lequel vous pouvez prendre légumes et fruits à volonté. L'hôtel ne dispose pas de restaurant mais il y en a plein a Sao Vicente (10min de route). Nous avons pu également profiter de la piscine et du sauna (ce dernier en supplément mais privatisé). Pas mal de randonnées à proximité également !

Fantastiskt läge, utsikten är superb. Jättetrevlig personal och god frukost där mycket är odlat i hotellets trädgård. Rummet vi bodde i kändes lite fuktigt men helhetsintrycket är väldigt bra.
