    Very cool to stay the night in a castle this old, staff were very friendly and helpful. Alvito is a very small community and is very quiet. It was nice to experience this little community and get off the main tourist path for a while.

    Lots of history in Pousada and the surroundings. There are a few things to do around Alvito, but there are not enough things requiring to stay longer than a day in Alvito. We had a nice dinner with all the food and wine sourced from Alentejano....
