Words honestly can’t describe how incredible this stay was. The property itself is absolutely beautiful — peaceful, relaxing, surrounded by nature, with stunning sunsets, fruit trees, and amazing views everywhere you look. It felt like a hidden paradise. The hot tub, outdoor spaces, and overall atmosphere made it such a special experience. But what truly made this unforgettable was Ziv and Karen. They didn’t treat us like guests — they treated us like family. They were like having a mom and dad away from home. Their kindness, care, and hospitality went far beyond anything we ever expected. My girlfriend forgot important medication back home, and Karen went out of her way to help us get what we needed. She even went to the supermarket herself to buy hair products so she could do my girlfriend’s hair for a wedding we were attending — and it looked absolutely amazing. She also offered to iron my clothes for the wedding. They warmed up the hot tub for us, constantly checked in on us, and even brought us food because they felt we needed to eat something. That level of care is something you rarely experience anywhere. You can truly feel the love and heart they put into this place and into the people who stay here. We left feeling grateful, cared for, and honestly emotional about leaving. Ziv and Karen deserve the absolute best, and we will never forget this experience. If you’re considering staying here, don’t even think twice — book it.

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.

Insuperable

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.

Um espaço zen no relaxe e simpatia

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.
O espaço exterior cuidados socalcos oferece uma vista deslumbrante.

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.

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.
