Las chicas eran un encanto. Disponibles para lo que necesitaras, siempre amables y con buena cara y preciosas sonrisas de cordialidad. Eso sin duda a mi en particular y que piensan en los niños, fue lo que más me encantó y me hizo sentir muy cómoda. El hotel muy cómodo con espacios al aire libre y cama elástica, columpios y unos juguetes para los más peques. Piscina queno nos dio tiempo de usar, rodeada de arboles y verde y espacios abiertos, cómo toda la casa lo hacen un lugar fresco y tranquilo para ir con niños. Si fuera por esa zona volvería al mismo hotel sin dudarlo. Y me faltó algo que también me encantó...libros para peques y grandes por todos los pasillos y rincones . Podría decir que ese lugar con su buena energía no es luxoso pero fue diseñado para mi . 🥰 Los olivos en el parquecito le dan un toque singular también.
Podría ser la forma que se hicieron los baños dentro de la habitación con paredes de cristal que quita un poco intimidad.

Hotel pequeño, tranquilo y con una atención excelente. Nos atendieron con mucho mimo. Las habitaciones son bastante coquetas y con camas muy cómodas.

The restaurant is an exceptional example of perfect Portuguese food, oh this meat! The staff was kind and friendly. The territory is well-maintained, and the terrace on 2d floor is a good place to have a drink at night.
The bathroom in the room is not soundproof from the room. There is no soap or vanity kit provided, despite the short stay. The pool has very old and broken chaise-longs that need replacement. The hotel is located next to a highway, which creates enough noise. They didn't have darts for the darts board hanging in the hall so the child got disappointed :(
It felt as if we stayed at a restaurant, as all their focus is on that part of the business.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The place is very clean and quiet. The pool area is particulary nice. The food and wine is great. Manuel and Rosa are very nice. One or two coffee shops close by to walk to. There is very little in the area other than that, so it's perfect for a quiet getaway.

An old granite house, recently recovered, in a quiet, peacefull village, hosted by the nice and available Sr. Manuel.
Good acess, nice sun exposure. Perfect to relax.
Close to some points of interest (Amarante, Guimarães, Marco de Canavezes).
Typical portuguese breakfast included. Restaurant on the ground floor.
Good matress, air conditioning is effective. Good acustic insulation.
Bedroom furniture could be a bit better.
Breakfast could have just a bit more variety (eg. some puff pastry and a toaster).
Price justifies some ammenities (only hand soap available).
Wc inside the bedroom was not a problem for us (good exhaustion and not exposed to bed sight)

The Holiday Home was fully reserved for us, and having its own entrance gave us a very private weekend.
The public pool was OK, we could use it several times without any other guests around.
The Holiday Home was fully equipped, good for a family to have their own meals at the home.
The owners did their best to accept all the last-minute requests we had for having a 1 year old baby with us (crib, sheets, later check-out)
The "private" pool of the Holiday Home was not in conditions to be used, and all the equipment to circulate the water was shutdown, but we could use the Public Pool without any problem, only farther from the Home.
Some of the employees, including the owner, were not used to use mask while going around the public spaces around the home, that could be OK because it is "open space", but when getting closer to us it would have been nice if they had the mask on.
The wifi didn't reach 100% of the Home, but where it reached it worked properly.
