Hotel ismanaged by a lovely and inspiring couple. They renovated the House in a fantastic modern Style. Don‘t miss the breakfast it is fantastic! A Highlight was the friday evening Dinner together with the other guests. Also very nice is a Bath in the hottubs.
Absolutely loved everything about this place. Ziv and Keren are amazing people. We had such and great time there. Every little detail is beautiful. Will definitely go back again and recommend it to everyone that asks me for places to stay. Thank you so, so much guys! See you soon.
We just started here and were completely blown away. What we expected to be a comfortable base for exploring the region turned into one of the most memorable stays we’ve ever had. The food, first and foremost, deserves serious praise — easily among the best meals we’ve eaten anywhere. Every dish was thoughtful, fresh, and beautifully executed. The chef is incredibly talented, and the level of quality was simply unexpected for a hotel of this size. It felt more like dining at a Michelin-starred retreat than a small hotel.
Beyond the food, the design of the hotel itself was stunning. The architecture blends modern elegance with regional character, and the lighting in the hotel is amazing. You can tell Keren is an interior designer.
What really set this place apart, though, were the hosts. They were incredibly gracious and generous with their time, offering genuine hospitality and sharing the story of how they built the hotel. As we’re considering a move to Portugal ourselves, their insight into the process — the challenges, the rewards, and the local culture — was incredibly helpful and deeply appreciated. Ziv was always ready with great suggestions and recommendations for the area
This is more than just a place to stay. It’s an experience. We left feeling inspired, well-fed, and extremely grateful. We can’t recommend it enough.
Los dueño son muy majos, atentos, detallistas, las habitaciones son minimalistas pero con todas las necesidades cubiertas, las vistas son espectaculares, los desayunos son tipo buffet, las cenas son con reserva pero sinceramente de toda el área es lo mejor de lo mejor vale la pena tener la experiencia completa.
A nossa experiência a 2 foi absolutamente inesquecível e a repetir, porque o casal Ziv e a Keren oferecem um disponibilidade e atenção a cada hóspede de modo irrepreensível.
Os pequenos almoço e os jantares são momentos de explosão das qualidades gastronómicas da Keren. No exterior,o espaço beneficia igualmente das artes decorativas Kerenianas , uma muito agradável surpresa.
A todo a hora, Ziv está presente para atender, cuidar, conversar, um casal que leva a oferta turística a nível profissional e com uma simpatia invulgar e inesquecível.
La casa de Keren y Zev es un lugar de apartarse de todo y relajarse.
El hotel y la habitación eran maravillosas, recién reformadas, con una decoración que ayudaba a entrar en estado de calma y disfrute.
Atención al detalle en cada rincón, un lugar precioso en un enclave pintoresco y con vistas espectaculares.
Nos han tratado y mimado y se agradece mucho.
Y la comida del bistrô es de lo mejor!
Muy recomendable.
Schönes, sehr sauberes Zimmer mit sehr freundlichen, hilfsbereiten und offenen Hotelbetreibern. Die Unterkunft befindet sich im Grünen und hat einen schönen Garten. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker. Wir empfehlen die Unterkunft gerne weiter.
Super Hotel! Mooie ruime kamers, lekker bed. Goed eten en vriendelijke eigenaren. Mooie locatie. Lekkere Hottub in de tuin met uitzicht over de vallei. Enige jammere dat er geen glazen/bekers en waterkoker op de kamer aanwezig was.
Un séjour très agréable, on est accueilli comme à la maison.
Zif et Keren sont aux petits soins, et très sympathiques.
La chambre est grande, spacieuse, avec un coin salon/bureau séparé.
La salle de bain est top!
La déco est vraiment épurée et agréable.
Que dire de plus: les spas à disposition dans la nature… la cuisine d’inspiration méditerranéenne, les vins locaux…
Belle découverte que cet hôtel-pépite non loin de Campo do Geres et de Braga.
Je suis conquis.
