Falta de privacidade
Este local é muito bonito e tranquilo e a casa é muito confortável. Mas se procura privacidade é melhor procurar noutro sitio. Aqui vai ter o caseiro todos os dias a rondar dentro da propriedade. Isso para nós não funcionou muito bem. Não voltaremos.

Muito potencial, um pouco aquém.
Esta simpática propriedade é localizada numa zona calma e propicia a dias de descanso. Tem alguns problemas basilares que vão fazendo diminuir a qualidade da estadia. A zona da piscina é agradável, mas poderia estar melhor mantida, faltando espreguiçadeiras para o número de hospedes. Também ao churrasco falta suporte e as grelhas não têm qualidade. O alpendre para refeições é agradável para passar o serão. Só falta mesmo uma mesa que não seja apenas uma tábua sustentada por cavaletes. À cozinha falta iluminação. Os colchões poderiam também oferecer mais conforto e uma das camas tinha problemas na estrutura. Estes problemas poderiam ser um pouco mais relevantes se tivemos sentido, da parte da anfitrã, mais simpatia. Contudo, desde o inicio que a Ana se mostrava com uma postura autoritária, questionando até o facto de sermos "jovens" e que não sabíamos, de certeza, manter uma casa, relatando hospedes antigos que, a nós, não nos interessava. Tivemos uma infestação de formigas ao longo da estadia e só foi melhorando pois gastamos dinheiro a comprar produtos para as eliminar. No final da estadia ainda fomos questionados da veracidade deste episódio, pois já não existiam formigas. Graças a nós. A casa tem uma fossa que não tem capacidade para 5 pessoas durante 1 semana. Connosco entupiu e a Ana ainda ficou aborrecida por chegar e a mesma estar entupida. Para resolver um problema de overbooking foi nos oferecido um fim de semana, mas por tudo isto, nem o vamos aceitar.

Vacances reposantes en famille
Merci Anna de nous avoir fait découvrir l'Alentejo en louant cette belle propriété. Une belle maison ancienne de la région bien rénovée. Tout était très propre, beaucoup de linge à notre disposition Toute la famille a apprécié la maison,son jardin et la piscine. Nous nous sommes vraiment bien reposés et Lisbonne n'étant pas loin nous avons découvert une belle capitale. Je recommande le treasure of Lisboa,un food tour incroyable. Nous avons également visité une fabrique de liège près d'Evora 👍👍 Bref un séjour alternant visites et farniente. Superbe

Dolce far niente alentejano
A nossa estadia nesta casa foi completamente de encontro às nossas expectativas. Foram 4 dias fantásticos em família em que até o tempo esteve a nosso favor. A casa tem tudo o que precisamos, e a limpeza é irrepreensível. Tudo correu bem desde o check-in ao chek-out. A Ana foi muito amável e respondeu sempre a todos contactos, por nós feitos. A D. Assunção, foi super simpática e acolhedora. Ficámos apaixonados por esta casa!

Espaço muito agradável e acolhedor, calmo e tranquilo. A caseira Dona Assunção muito prestável.
Umas férias relaxantes, longe da confusão da cidade. A piscina apesar de ser pequena é perfeita para nós refrescarmos do calor alentejano.

Conforme à l'annonce
Jolie maison entretenue et isolée dans la campagne. Léger retard de la remise des clés mais les prestations étaient à la hauteur de nos attentes. Ana est disponible et parle un français convenable. 😊 Un four serait bienvenu. Nous avions demandé la préparation d'un repas portugais, malheureusement cela n'a pas été possible. Globalement, nous sommes ravis de notre séjour. Merci Ana !

Ruime , verzorgde vakantiewoning op het platteland.
Smaakvol ingerichte woning met oog voor netheid en comfort. Voldoende ruim voor 7 personen. Vriendelijke ontvangst. Onderhoudspersoneel staat iedere dag klaar voor de gasten. Vakantiewoning met een zekere service , een aanrader! Wij werden bij het in - en uitchecken verwelkomd door de gastvrouw, wat zeker kon geapprecieerd worden. Zij is innemend en zorgend.
