    Monsanto is the most unique small town we visited on our 3wk trip to Portugal. You can start to see the massive boulders from the base of the hillside and then it's 5 km straight up winding narrow road. You will need your host to show you where to park.

    It is a good idea to book a place for the night.

    It is a good idea to book a place for the night. The views are so incredible and unique you will want to experience day and night in amongst the boulders. There is a wonderful hike to the ruins above the boulder village. There is spectacular lighting in the evening. The village is quite out of the way for travelling. This was our second visit to Monsanto so we knew to book for the night. Lots of unique places to eat. We ate at our hosts' spot and it was great. Once you arrive amongst the boulders, you don't have to leave until your stay is over. You can find all you need there.

    Very unique. Great trekking up to the fort (short but steep). We really enjoyed the “rock village”. Our meal at Pestitos and Granitos was delicious. We recommend Monsanto fro those looking for a unique experience.

    It's a very peaceful place with lots of great views and we found a lovely bistro to eat at. Some of the roads are very steep and you have to park and walk so for someone not so good on their feet this wouldn't be suitable

    Breakfast was very, very good.

    Breakfast was very, very good. Plentiful and the 1 st place that had scrambled eggs. The setting , room with very nice, and w/ stated excellence and environment. Elegantly decorated. Plenty of cold cuts and cheese. In any event, a morning feast for the eyes and stomach.

    Worth a visit.

    Worth a visit. We drove too far and Nuno and another guy helped direct my husband doing an 8 point turn. Huge cobbles and steep hills are the order of the day, but it is fascinating and the views of an evening are enchanting. Nuno's house is lovely and we would stay there again. Thank you Nuno for your help!

    Casa do Castello is in a great location in the old town of Monsanto. The narrow cobblestone streets set the feeling of something very special. The unit we were in was decorated very nicely and very comfortable. The bathroom appeared to be new. The balcony overlooked the beautiful valley below. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful. In addition, they own a nearby restaurant of the same name. We ate both lunch and breakfast there and both were delicious. We highly recommend Casa Do Castello for a stay and the restaurant for meals.

    Monsanto is very special and Sun Set is the place to stay when visiting. Arrival and check in was clearly explained and Eloiza was very helpful and accommodating. The house was charming, comfortable, well equipped and spotless. Eloiza made sure all of our needs were met including a lunch after a long hike and help with dinner reservations. You couldn't ask for a better host. Monsanto is a unique experience and a must see if you enjoy traveling off the beaten path. Sun Set is the place to stay.

    This renovated stone structure into a beautifully appointed 8 room boutique hotel was perfection! Such a relaxing setting looking out to a gorgeous infinity pool with olive trees and unobstructed landscape for miles. Stefano and Katarina were lovely host. They went out of there way to make our stay one of the best stays of 9 location. We didn't make reservations one night and texted them out on the road and they found us a lovely restaurant in the next town over. You will not be disappointed!!

    Very good location, very kind owners, very typical house, great place to spend some days, well furnished and equipped! Just lovely. If you visit Monsanto it is an awesome place to rest and to prepare for the climb to the castle. On other opportunities I'll try to return. The space is huge, there is a space to cook, you can step outside and have a nice view of the valley, the windows are protected with mosquito nets and it had AC

    The other review say it all really but if you are looking for a place from which to explore Monsanto then you need not look any further. From the assistance with the baggage to the prompt communication, from the incredible food to the incredibly warm hospitality, from the small and big gestures of the host to the location of the property - this place has it all!

    Everything about our stay was great! The location of the hotel is just right as there are quite a few free parking spots around the area and at walkable distance from all the points of interest/restaurants/cafes/etc. Jorge and Ana Paula are super friendly and helpful with any inquiries we might had. Breakfast is decent and diverse.

    Everything was so clean and very traditional chic. Loved the way they took a ruin and incorporated into a lodge. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be coming back to this hotel once it’s warmer to use the pool.

    This was perfection for me. Loved the room, the setting, the Roman road just off the back gate to walk to Monsanto. I loved Ingrid’s hospitality & wonderful breakfast. And then there was the in room massage with Morgana. Exploring Monsanto from here was magical.
