Amazing place, highly recommended
This is the second time we stay at this beautiful place. Great location, comfortable rooms, good food, and most importantly amazing staff that always go the extra mile to make your stay a special one. Special thanks go to Mr. José Mendez who always makes sure that all guests are having a wonderful time.
Furthermore, the swimming pool is very nice and heated, and we really enjoyed the mini-golf and the little steam next to it.

Low Key and relaxing
Small resort with very nice individual cottages and ground level apartments or apartments surrounding the upper pool.Two pools one open to the sun the other semi enclosed( definitely a relief when it’s very hot and sunny.Cafe serving breakfast,lunch and light dinner with a full bar and outside seating.Some spa options and a full gym and steam room.Nicely decorated exterior with plants,paintings and sculptures.Nice owners.There were some families with children but they were well behaved.

Tranquil Spot
This is a very quiet, relaxing spot outside Guimaraes. Rooms are set in a beautiful garden setting with outdoor seating. Large living room/kitchen and separate bedroom. Comfortable, modern and well equipped. Staff were great but some don't speak English. Only downside was over-whelming use of air freshener in the rooms.
I love this place. I stay in 30+ hotels per year for work or leisure and am rarely tempted to write a review however this place deserves it. The location is lovely and tucked away but not far from the beautiful city of Guimaraes and the motorways. The small complex is perfectly designed with superb landscaping and is run by a very friendly manager and his team who pay attention to detail. The pool is lovely but the highlight was the perfectly formed cottages that we were so impessed by that we are considering asking for the plans so we can build our own. They are very well designed and appointed. The beds are big and comfortable and frideges and hobs are full size. We didn't have lunch or dinner in the restaurant but the food we saw on tables looked really good. Breakfast is delicious and varyied with cheeses, meats, bread, croissants, pastel de nata, cereal, perfectly ripe fruit, OJ, coffee, hot chocolate and fresh bread. My only criticism is it may be a bit too much! I can't fault this place and we had a lovely time. We will be back.
Perfect for couples with or without children, great quality bedrooms and superb breakfast.

Dejligt ophold og fin morgenmad
Virkeligt dejligt lille sted, stille og roligt. Lækkert indrettet. Venligt personale.
Havde forventer en “hytte”, men fik desværre alm dobbeltværelse.
Dog lidt afsides beliggende (burde vi selv have undersøgt på forhånd)

Séjour en famille pour visiter Guimarães et ses alentours. Piscine très agréable pour les enfants. Le domaine est très bien entretenu et la nature est présente dans chaque recoin. La maison était fonctionnelle avec la possibilité d’avoir le ménage fait à la demande. Super accueil et petit déjeuner sympa. Bravo

Calm and good pools
Ystävällinen henkilökunta ja ihana siisti, kaunis majoitus, jossa vehreää kasvillisuutta. Aamupala perus, jotakin kasvista/smoothieta kaipaisi lisää.
Ravintola kohtuuhintainen ja ruoka hyvää. Kohtelias palvelu. Lapset huomioitiin hienosti.
Ympäröivä alue hieman ankea mutta hotelli on niin kiva, ettei paljoa aktiviteettia ehdi ajatella kun nauttii altaista ja kylpylästä.
