Beautiful suite on a beautiful property in a lovely setting. Exceptionally comfortable room with balcony overlooking grapevines. Attentive staff made the stay perfect. We enjoyed two dinners and two breakfasts, all made with care and featured local ingredients. The chef was a gem. We enjoyed the area hikes which we found well marked.

A gem of a find

The service that we received was absolutely fantastic. Super friendly and comfortable. Views are simply stunning. The highlight of the place is the quality of the food. Chef Marianna cooks the most amazing food. It cost 25 Euros for a 4 course meal which was outstanding. She along with the other staff are also absolutely lovely. Cant recommend highly enough.

Don't scroll passed, book this place!

Honestly this place is an utter haven! Don't hesitate and just book it! If I could give more than 5*s for service I would the team here are incredible, and go above and beyond to ensure you have a great break and assist with any query or issue you have. Breakfast was exceptional with everything handmade and fresh and so much of it grown on the farm itself. Evening meal was great too. And well that pool and that view.... Was the perfect place to relax and recharge after a busy and hectic city break! Thanks to all the team, we loved our stay, and can't recommend it enough

Nossa hospedagem foi algo inesquecível em nossas vidas! Uma estrutura fantástica com pessoas agradabilíssimas, atenciosas, amáveis, encantadoras. Os funcionários fizeram nossas dias serem encantados. O restaurante é outro ponto inexplicável! Os sabores, as texturas, pratos delicadamente preparados com ingredientes frescos e produzidos no próprio hotel. Sucos fracos e feitos com frutas do pomar nos fizeram desejar voltar e ter mais dias hospedados. Quero agradecer com muito carinho a todos que fizeram nossa hospedagem incrível!
