"Extended our stay in the Algarve region by spending a night here. It was quickly obvious that one night was far too short for this wonderful property. The staff is incredibly attentive, friendly, and helpful. You can’t beat the location. Snacks and breakfast were very tasty. The ultimate place to relax. We hope to be back soon!"

"A truly wonderful stay – we didn’t want to leave! We have just returned from a wonderful stay at Conversas de Alpendre, and it genuinely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found somewhere very special. The staff were absolutely amazing and could not have done more for us. The level of personal service was exceptional — they remembered our names, our preferences and the little things we liked, which made us feel incredibly welcome and looked after throughout our stay. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was excellent, and the whole property has such a wonderful sense of peace and tranquillity. If you are looking for somewhere to genuinely switch off, rest and relax, this is the place. The pool is fantastic — a really good size and, importantly, large enough to actually swim in rather than the small hotel pools you often find. It was a real pleasure to spend time there. And then there are the views… absolutely stunning. Looking out across the carob tree forest towards the sea is simply beautiful and gives the whole place such a feeling of space and serenity."

"We loved having our own pool in its own garden with plenty of sun beds. Villa was very clean and well appointed. The kitchen needs more than 1 chopping board and while there was a very ample supply of crockery and cutlery, a cheese grater would have been handy."

"Nice house in a cozy, quiet village. We were a large family with visitors from 5 to 84 years old. Lovely to have walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The bathrooms showed some signs of needing renovation, but were clean and fairly functional. Nice outdoor areas that especially the youngest and the oldest appreciated. Can be recommended."

"This was my second solo week at this hotel and I was more than happy with my return visit. The hotel is spacious and welcoming with very well kept gardens. The room I had was again spacious and clean. The food is incredible with many different things to try at each meal; this was one of the main attractions luring me back to the hotel from last year! The pool is clean and family friendly without being too loud. The staff are very friendly without being ‘in your face’ which I found perfect. The road train down to the beach is a lovely trip where you can see avocados growing on the trees as well as typical citrus fruit of the region."

"We have been staying in Manta Rota over many years and this is by far the nicest villa we've stayed in. It's design brings the outsuide inside which is lovely. A couple of sunloungers outside next to the pool would be nice. Also, another review mention a dog barking, This is very common in Portugal and rest assured the dog did not bark at night."
