São Lourenço do Barrocal, hotel in Monsaraz

São Lourenço do Barrocal is located in the foothills of the medieval village of Monsaraz and nearby the Alqueva lake.

Wow, what a gem of a hotel. This is a truly spectacular property that exceeded even our high expectations. The staff and service were fantastic and the place gives you an immediate sense of calm. The surroundings are absolutely stunning. What we also appreciated was that the food, drinks and activities were not overpriced, so you left feeling like you were not taken advantage of, which can be the case for a lot of high end hotels. The food was delicious and in beautiful settings.

Horta Da Coutada, hotel in Monsaraz

Surrounded by beautiful countryside, the Horta Da Coutada is a small guest house offering rustic accommodation in the pretty village of Telheiro, 1 km from the medieval town of Monsaraz.

Despite some language barriers, communication with staff was achieved and able to make ourselves understood. This would probably not be a problem when the hotel is busier and more staff are present (only one in the evening and morning). Evening meal and breakfast were both excellent in very pleasant surroundings, and would be even better during the summer as could be outside. Location is very convenient for Monsaraz (as long as you have a car). Room was spacious, with good shower room, etc.

Refúgio da Vila, hotel in Monsaraz

Set in Monsaraz, 500 metres from Monsaraz Castle and 47 km from Ducal Palace of Vila Viçosa, Refúgio da Vila offers air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

This is a beautiful quirky apartment, it was spotless. Isabel greeted us so warmly and the property had so many little extra touches that made it really special, We were there for only one night and didn’t cook but it seemed to have everything you would need. Really comfy bed and spacious bedroom. The views from the property are amazing and the little terrace beautiful. A walk literally around the corner gives you stunning views over Alqueva Lake and another few yards up the hill takes you into the caste and the village of Monsaraz. This is a truly special and individual place.

    Wonderful, fantastic.

    Wonderful, fantastic. I loved the peace and harmony that one can breathe, Monsaraz at the top of the Monte, and the company of the chickens, ducks and turkeys. I wrote in peace, in the company of my friends and with the guidance of the stars of a fantastic sky, the likes of which I had never seen.

    A day is all you need for the city of Monsaraz.

    A day is all you need for the city of Monsaraz. If you want to explore Reguengos and it's vinyards then you may not need to stay in Monsaraz itself which is difficult with cars. We visited the week leading into Easter Sunday and very few restaurants were open in the evening, in fact we only found one so be prepared to wait and have limited choices

    Nice castle. Be sure you research your stay options.

    Nice castle. Be sure you research your stay options. There are rooms at the castle itself as well as nearby houses. The hotel we stayed at was a bit overpriced and disappointing. Views are incredible from the top. 2 hours is enough to have reserved lunch at the castle and then walk around the grounds for photos. Or 1 hour without lunch. Parking is tricky and we parked near the bottom and walked 10 minutes up the hill

    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz,...

    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz, maintains the magic from ancient times like few others in the world. Made of lime and schist, this place whispers us, between the echo of our footsteps in its streets. A lot of magnificent stories could be told about its courageous kings, Knights Templar, brave people and dames of simple beauty. Now the night is covering you with its cozy blanket of stars. Sit down at one of the restaurants in Monsaraz. Taste the best traditional Alentejo food, like the crumbs or the lamb. As for Alentejo wine, savour a good Reserva Monsaraz with your meal. The view over Alqueva Lake completes the sensory nirvana. Don’t finish your night without admiring the show of constellations and planets, which shine more intensely on the sky.

    Monsaraz is genuinely one of the most beautiful places I’ve...

    Monsaraz is genuinely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. It felt like stepping back in time to a slower pace of life, a rustic, cobbled haven with the most fantastic 360 degree views of the lake, valley and the castle on top of the hill. It is well worth putting on your alarm to wake up for the sunrise when the village is still asleep and watching the place wake up including the animals on the distance. It was spectacular. The food was local and very rustic and delicious using produce from the Alentejo (we ate at Sabores de monsaraz and were hosted by Isabel, a local lady with a small but delicious local menu). The wine was also really good. It was incredibly hot (45 degrees) so would maybe be better to visit outside of the summer months. The vineyards surrounding monsaraz were beautiful we had a very special meal at Esporao, which is well worth the money having the 7 course tasting menu and accompanying wine flight, it felt like immense luxury whilst capturing the charm Portuguese food and produce. The village itself doesn’t have a shop for essentials so my advice would be to drive to reguengos de monsaraz prior to your stay to stock up on water and snacks so you can relax when you get there. It truly was a magical place to stay for a few nights.

    A small walled village set atop a hill, with 360 degrees of absolutely stunning views. Not a huge amount to do in the village proper. The castle for sure. Also some excellent wine shops selling local wines (check out Ar d’Alentejo). Taverna os Templários is a must stop for lunch or dinner. Cars can’t be parked in the village during the day, but there are several lots right outside the walls with easy access to the village. We spent a day exploring nearby Neolithic dolmens and menhirs, lots to see within a half hour drive.

    The hotel room was beautiful. The design was impeccable and the rooms and location were quiet and private. I wish I could decorate my own home so well. Bed was comfortable and I slept well. Shower was hot. At dinner there was only one choice, but the chef could prepare a vegetarian meal if you like. I tried vegetarian one evening because I don't eat lamb and lamb was the only main course option. This hotel was perfect and I hope to come back one day.

    A warm nest to stay for a visit to Monsaraz and wide environment. Easy to find, allowing the discovery of the beautiful views on lake and fortress town. Ideal for families with children as they can enjoy the animals and the swimming pool setting. Good breakfast, served as from 830. Parking spaces were covered against the sun. Perfect hosts Suzanna and Vasco, help with whatever you need, watersports, restaurants, etc. Almost perfect darkness in the room.

    We very much enjoyed our one-night stay! The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was well organized and comfortable. The hotel is a lovely 25 minute walk from the castle up the steep old path along the side of the hill. And the breakfast was truly breathtaking- the best breakfast we had in Portugal and one of the best ever. Just make sure you're hungry (I walked to Xerez Cromlech and back before breakfast and it was a really good idea)

    The owners are incredibly friendly and wanting to provide great service. The terraces and the views are absolutely incredible. The hotel has a family feel as it used to belong to the owner's grand-mother. Bathroom is modern and comfortable. Monsaraz is a very special town, it's definitely worth sleeping there rather than simply visiting during the day, it is magical when the shops are closed and other tourists aren't around.

    The people who run the property- Susana and Mara- they went the extra mile to ensure we had the best experience. The breakfasts were the best we had in our 10 day tour of the Alentejo. The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and quiet. Well situated for the village of Monsaraz and the Lake. In the village where the property was situated there was a really good restaurant just next door.

    Fabulous traditional house; amazing value for money for a group. Well equipped kitchen. We loved this area for exploring Monsaraz, nearby vineyards, and the river beaches. There are very good restaurants in the village just a few steps from the house - we tried three and enjoyed them all. Was great that we had secure parking for 2 cars.
