Great stay in a unique atmosphere
Pros:

has a unique atmosphere as it used to be an olive farm. Very special feel to it. Really liked it. Great breakfast. Large pool area. Julie and team are such a helpful resource in case you need anything (e.g. booking a restaurant or similar).

Cons:

you might hear the highway nearby in the morning, rooms and bath might come across a bit dated (but did not disturb us)

Pros:

Wunderschöne Anlage, in mitten eines alten Olivenbaumhains. Die Einrichtung ist sehr exklusiv, das reinste Museum, nur das man mitten darin lebt!

A gem of a place to stay.
Pros:

This place is a true gem !! From the friendly, knowledgeable staff, the lovely property, great rooms and superb pool, it is hard to beat. Add to that the fact there are 3 great local restaurants, a pastry shop and a super market all a short walk away, and great highway access to other Algarve attractions and towns and you can't go wrong.

Cons:

Honestly, the only thing we did not like, was having to depart !!

Un séjour Idyllique
Pros:

L'accueil de Julie qui parle français et qui se met en quatre pour répondre à vos demandes. Le cadre aussi bien intérieur (chambres, couloirs, hall, petits salons) qu'extérieur (jardin, piscine) est magnifique. Le petit déjeuner est un grand moment. Si vous avez la chance de croiser le propriétaire qui est un artiste peintre, il se fera un plaisir de vous faire visiter son établissement qui est une ancienne ferme du XVème et du XIIème siècle (ferme classée)

Cons:

rien

Een aparte benadering maar wel om evenzeer te genieten.
Pros:

Het leuke gevoel om veel ruimte te hebben : een domein vol planten, bomen , beelden . Je bent verplicht om veel te bewegen want alles is te bereiken na korte wandeling. Aangenaam en atypisch zwembad. De kamers en terras zijn voldoende groot en voorzien van groot bed met alle comfort erbij. Erg behulpzame receptie!

Cons:

Eentonig ontbijt, want alles ligt mooi op een plateau, soms weliswaar wat afwisseling.

We definitely recommend it for a special and practical stay
Pros:

It is a special place. Very calm, carefully and respectfully reconstructed, nicely decorated, run with care. Not on the beach but well located to cover the whole Algarve within 45 mins or less.
