Quinta das Alfambras

Staff so friendly, clean , great breakfast.

Nothing not to like

We absolutely loved this stay, everything was wonderful. We stayed here as a slightly off route rest day on the vicentina and it was our favourite part. The photos don’t do this place justice it was so airy and well decorated with gorgeous quality furniture, the view from the balcony is amazing and we spent a wonderful lazy day by the pool, doing our washing, eating the huge delicious breakfast and feeling so well rested. We were heartbroken to leave!

Absolutely nothing, just that we had to leave

The house and the entire grounds are beautiful, incredibly clean and well maintained, as is the lovely pool. After the third day, the house is cleaned and the bed linen and towels are changed. Even the dishwasher was turned on and emptied. The breakfast is fabulous! You can choose from 7 different menu options every day. Everything is freshly prepared, very tasty and lasts until the evening. The covered, shaded parking spaces are very pleasant. Vera and her family run the complex with a lot of love and heart! Muito obrigado! The access road (approx. 500 m) is a gravel road, which is a bit unpleasant. According to Vera, however, this is a public road and therefore the responsibility of the municipality.

What an incredible place, run by a wonderful family! We had a fantastic four night stay at Quinta das Alframbas. To begin with Vera notified us we could check in early, which was fantastic for us as our flight arrived early in the day. On arrival we were shown around and left to relax in our accommodation. We were then provided a delicious charcuterie board which was just what we needed after a long travel. The accommodation is spacious, modern, clean and well equipped, the pool and surrounding sun lounges a perfect place to soak up the sun and cool off in the pool. The breakfasts!! 7 different choices, with delicious fresh local fruits and cheeses, incredible cakes baked by Vera’s mum. I am coeliac, and was so moved by the efforts of Vera and Mum to accommodate my dietary needs. Receiving a whole loaf of gluten free bread and cakes every day just for me- very kind indeed. We had leftovers from breakfasts to use for lunches and afternoon treats when returning from a day exploring. If we had any questions or needed support Vera was always available, either in person, or via WhatsApp. The recommendations of beaches, restaurants, and places to visit were well received and much appreciated. A lovely place, and we can’t wait to stay again when we next visit Portugal!
