Company information

We aspire to be one of the best rural tourisms in Alentejo for back-to-nature experiences, stargazing and personal development activities. Our mission is to create positive and authentic experiences for Guests, opportunities for Team Members, high value for Owners and a positive impact in our Community. Our values of hospitality, integrity, customer satisfaction and sustainability are at the heart of our actions and decisions. We remodelled the “Montes Alentejanos” that existed on the property since 1955 using traditional construction techniques and local labour and decorated some of the public areas with Alentejo artifacts. We are autonomous regarding drinking water, have solar water heating, double flush tanks, taps with flow reducers, refillable amenities and encourage guest to help with recycling waste through provision of recycle bins. The lighting includes LED lamps powered by solar panels and its low intensity and warm colour supports the circadian rhythm and favours the observation of stars. We are a "non-hunting reserve" and have "Natural.Pt" certification.

Property information

The property is set on a 270-hectare estate, along the banks of the River Sado, and with paddy fields, agricultural land and forests of pine and cork oak trees. There is an abundance of wildlife here including 91 different birds - flamingos, storks, herons, loons and ducks to name a few, as well as wild rabbits, hares and otters. The property is immersed in nature with marked walking and cycling routes (free bike hire) running through the estate. The suites are modern and comfortable and have a small living room, veranda facing the paddy fields and patio area to the rear. There is a shared kitchen where you can prepare a snack or keep cold drinks and two outdoor swimming pools. Guests can relax on the veranda and watch the seasonal changes from the burgeoning colours of the first buds of Spring to the calm and relaxing brown tones of Autumn and Winter. At night-time, on a clear day, you will see the sky lit with thousands of stars and constellations as there is relatively little light pollution in the area.
