Porqueira Hotels

"The owners are great. The property is not. The place is cold for winter, the thermostat is locked, but if you call the owners they will adjust it up some. The place has a smell. It is like a wet dog or mold. The bed is hard, the pillows are flat, and the sheets are thin. It is a multi- stay unit home, if you book a room, there may be another 4 (or more) guests staying there with you sharing the common room. For winter, all the potted plant were brought inside. A bit more communication from the owners as to where they are or where to go for check-in would be appreciated. They are right next door for the record. The owners made a simple bread, fruit, and coffee breakfast with local jam and honey. It was nice and they are good conversationalists. I wish I could rate it higher, but the smell was a big negative for me. "

"much better than just excellent. Great room, view, nice people, clean, friendly. Off the beaten path where the lake is beautiful. Well worth it."

"The hotel was wonderful though the location was in the middle of car dealerships so there were few restaurants or interesting sights. "

"Fantastic experience in a great place, and restaurant. I want to highlight that, in particular, my wife (who is celiac) enjoyed her time considering the special care and the way that she was protected by the place’s owner through a special menu prepare to her. Casa Rural Vilaboa, thank you very much. For sure we will return."

"Limited food options "

"The character of the property was very well retained and our room was very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent but the evening meal had a disappointing menu and was not available until a late hour "

"Excellent value, unfortunately we did not speak much of the language but the staff were great. Great for a nice stopover there are shops, cafes restaurants within 200 meters. "
