So charming

Step back in time in this little village near the coast. Each little apartment has a living space, bathroom and a well equipped kitchen which includes microwave oven, stove and Smeg espresso machine on the main floor with winding steps up to a loft with a comfortable bed. The restaurant has a great chef with lots of homemade Portuguese dishes. We highly recommend this place.

The pool was closed and has been for some time as they are rebuilding it. This was not advertised when booking nor was it communicated to us afterwards. Bike hire and meals also need to be arranged the day before , again this wasn't communicated to us when booking or when speaking to the reception on the phone prior to arriving. It's a lovely village but I think it's not ok to advertise facilities that aren't available as this was a big reason why we chose it. I would definitely go again though and staff were very friendly. The fish bread pie in the restaurant is incredible.

Delightful away from the madding crowd experience

Interesting concept renovating old cottages to give individual accomodation. Excellent on site restaurant and staff who were unfailingly helpful and obliging. Shorr distance to beaches for surfers and swimmees

Great stay in refurbished traditional portuguese village, lovely cobbled streets offers a different style of accommodation, a little simpler style, the houses come with basic kitchens and there are two restaurants on site.

Beau concept mais problèmes d'organisation

Super concept mais ... notre reservation avait été oubliée! Nous avons donc été logés dans une maisonnette minuscule, avec un canapé lit très petit dont le matelas était épais comme une feuille de cigarette pour nos 2 enfants, et très peu de place dans la pièce cuisinette/ chambre d'enfant /salon, pas de serviettes de toilette pour les enfants le premier matin, odeurs de renfermé. .. Chambre pas prête avant 20 h alors que nous sommes arrivés à 16h...Quel dommage. .. La région est magnifique et le site a pourtant du potentiel. Chouette petite piscine en pleine nature.

Urgemütlich, geschmackvoll bis ins Detail

Richtig gemütlich, geschmackvoll und entspannend. Super Lage im Aljentejo, ganz nahe bei den Surferstränden an der Westküste, auch nicht weit an die Südküste der Algarve. Super Essen im Restaurant der Anlage. Unser Apartment war ein bisschen eng, aber das lag daran, dass wir es zu 5 bewohnten und es war eigentlich ein 4er Apartment. Die anderen waren schon ausgebucht, verständlich, weil es echt nett ist.

Quaint and quiet

Quiet and quaint, this little village is a perfect getaway for couples, friends and families... But don't expect lots of nightlife or bars - there are just a couple of restaurants and the rest you have to drive to. Lovely accommodation, however, and a nice pool.

Aldeia da Pedralva

Hotel rustico con una ubicación privilegiada donde se respira tranquilidad y descanso pero de verdad. El personal del hotel es extremadamente amable y contribuye definitivamente a crear una atmósfera familiar y agradable. Aunque sus calidades no puedan considerarse altas es de la zona de Sagres, Caparrapateira, Vila d`Obispo, etc de las mejores opciones aunque algo cara. Creo que merecería la pena repetir.
