B&Bs in Unhais da Serra

Rachelle United States

Casa da Almoinha is absolutely fantastic and is the hidden gem of Portugal. Margarida, the host, is a ball of sunshine. My partner and I stayed for three nights and were delighted every morning with the most incredible brunch full of local produce, baked goods, and traditional Portuguese foods. Margarida's brunch is the perfect start to a day and the vast array of treats will forever be in my memory. Every afternoon and evening, we would be greeted with freshly baked cookies or cakes in the kitchen. All those little touches from Margarida were so thoughtful and appreciated. Margarida was full of knowledge about where to hike and visit in Serra da Estrella. She has many brochures about the region and will also provide detailed information about where to hike in the area. The location of Casa da Almoinha was perfect. The guesthouse is located next to the freshwater stream (from the mountains) and can be enjoyed from the backyard patio. There's an adorable pathway and bridge leading to the main part of the small town and a short 5-min walk to get to the restaurants and grocery stores. We were also pleasantly surprised that the trailhead to a 5-mile hike was so close! The hike wove through the hills, paralleled the river, and brought you through the most beautiful landscape of ferns, wildflowers and pines. The views were incredible and was easily one of my favorite hikes in the region. Our room was lovely and everything in the house was spotless (very clean!) The bed was very comfortable and the water pressure was luxurious. The only thing to keep in mind is that there is no door separating the bathroom from the bedroom so this room would be recommended for couples. Overall, Margarida's guesthome was outstanding and I would stay with her again in a heartbeat. It's like having a home away from home and all the little joys and tasty surprises that make you smile.

A very unique, chic and elegant place. An oasis of nature,calmness and class. The greatness and cleanness of the house it’s a 10*. And this wouldn’t be so perfect without the warmth and kindness of the host Margarita. This feels like going back home. Perfect place for anybody.

The owner was lovely and the room was very clean with a large comfortable bed. The main bonus was her lovely way with guests. You get an authentic experience of mountain village life. It is central to everything with some beautiful walks. Great value

I travel a lot and I have to admit that I also am a rather demanding guest. Casa nas Hortas fulfilled all my expectations. Normally I never give a 10, but I could not find anything wrong... so I give a 10! The hospitality was also amazing: I arrived as a guest, and left as a friend!
