Guest Review: The decor is fresh and contemporary. Views over the valley are lovely. The whole place is spotlessly clean and the staff are superb. We had a smooth check in and then a tour of the facilities including a free glass of wine when we were settled and ready. The bed is super comfy, best pillows we’ve had on our tour of Portugal!! The breakfast is fabulous, fresh and flavoursome produce. The spa is lovely and facial was fabulous, they even accommodated a late check out for us as the only availability for the treatment was 11.45. The relaxation space in the spa is beautiful with excellent views. Town is about a 20 min walk down hill and a €5 taxi ride back up ;) Thank you for a great stay.
Guest Review: This wonderful property is on the rise. The staff do their best to please the customer at every interaction and that really felt five star. We arrived early and checked our bags with the porter so we could take a wine tour and tasting on the property. Then we had reserved an hour in the water circuit part of the spa during the “kids hour” so our young ones could enjoy that. We had dinner in the restaurant which was also a top notch experience. The rooms are new and modern, and the view from our balcony was fantastic. This was really a special experience and one that we highly recommend.
Guest Review: The Pinta has a very cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Ana is very accommodating, kind and welcoming. The common area is a great place to relax and the rooms are quite comfortable.
