Hotel con piscina a Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo

If you're looking for a great place to chill Herdade da Corte is where you need to go. A Rio Grande style and feel about it, surrounded by fabulous hilly views, orange, lemon trees, olive groves, and pure adulterated silence. You hear the whisper of the breeze throughout the outdoor areas which have casual seating dotted about, a sweeping view, and a to die for salt-water pool. If you want 5 star service and a butler this isn't the place for you! Our favourite time of the day was a leisurely hour and half munching our way through the buffet breakfast, consisting of 4 different freshly made juices, a good selection of local produce, bread, rolls, pastries and cake, cheese, cold meats, fruits, yoghurt, and natural cereals - while idly looking out to the hills. There's also an array of teas, and the coffee is via a machine which is good - but goat's milk! We've travelled the world extensively and it's rare to find such a place. If you want to jazz up your time there Tavira is charming, along with Tavira Island. You do need a car if you stay at Herdade and want to visit many areas, however, we had read other reviews and knew that - but we just wanted to relax there and do nothing! We stayed 4 days and did venture out 1 afternoon to a restaurant in St Luzia. Local taxi, very nice driver. 20 euro each way (same prices to Tavira) about 15 minutes journey. The owners Joao and Francisco are cool, interesting guys, very helpful, and knowledgeable about the area , local produce, wines, and activities to do there - hiking, etc. Good massage also available in relaxing room. €50 Personally speaking, we dossed (an English word for lazing about) around the pool , helping ourselves to the well-stocked honesty bar, with the occasional beer/glass of wine, absorbed in a few good crime novels. Please note: after breakfast there is NO food available until 7pm. We knew that and brought along our own snacks, nuts etc. The evening menu is mainly cold, very good local produce - oh, please try the prawns (they hot). We tried almost everything on the menu during our stay - couldn't fault anything. My husband arrived completely knackered (another old-school word for tiredness) and after almost 4 days rooted to the place said he felt like the Six Million Dollar Man! Thank you Herdades, we will be back. Hayley & Alan UK

Sono arrivato tardi in serata, ho bisogno di una camera doppia per mia moglie e per me stessa. Purtroppo, tutte le camere adattate dell'hotel erano già state prenotate. Consapevole delle difficoltà che ci presentano, la signora molto utile al ricevimento ha chiamato il suo partner per discutere della situazione. Alla fine della conversazione mi ha informato che, dopo aver discusso con il suo partner, avevano convenuto che potremmo passare la notte in una delle loro suite familiari accessibili allo stesso prezzo di una stanza adattata; per considerarla un'abitazione gratuita. Aggiornamento in vista delle nostre circostanze! Questo rappresentava un notevole sconto. Abbiamo avuto una notte molto comoda all'hotel, e una bella selezione di colazione scelte la mattina successiva. , in bellissimo ambiente. Il personale ha aiutato a garantire che le nostre esigenze fossero soddisfatte, e non posso apprezzare abbastanza l'esperienza. Un bel hotel in tutti i modi, e un hotel che consiglierei a nessuno. Grazie Quinta Do Marco - lavorate duro per dare alle persone un grande servizio e meritano di essere riusciti. Molto consigliato!
