Residenssit – Serra da Estrela

”A fine place to stay, but it’s PR is not helped by the unattractive photo of the indoor pool which is prominent in its advertising. I would suggest a shot of the town of Manteigas from the hotel- a beautiful vista indeed.”

”What a cute spot! We loved our brief stay at TerraSense! The property is beautiful and peaceful- the room was so aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. And the staff was so kind and welcoming- great breakfast we thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend as we will be back when we are on the area again!”

”Um lugar incrível. Jantar maravilhoso. Tudo ótimo.”

”Charming beautifully decorated cottages. We enjoyed fire place, deck, library, and pottery workshop. There is a delicious healthy breakfast served in the cafe every morning. Staff is incredibly nice and helpful. We hiked to a nearby village. We will definitely come back. ”

”En juuri arvostele hotelleja, mutta tässä tapauksessa täytyy tehdä poikkeus. Hotelli on mahtavasti suunniteltu ja sisustettu helmi Penhas Douradas kukkulan rinteellä. Sisustus on yhdistelmä skandinaavista minimalismia ja 70-luvun hiihtomajaa, parhaassa mahdollisessa mielessä. Huoneet ovat siistit ja persoonalliset, ja ainakin "cork room"eissa oli mainio, koko seinän ikkuna josta avautui kaunis näkymä hotellin edustalle. Hotellista löytyy myös uima-allas, sekä varsin toimiva sauna. Hotellin...

”En un mot, EXCELLENT !!! Je recommande….”

”Helt fantastisk lille perle. Vores ophold blev forlænget to dage, pga. af møder. Værten var utrolig hjælpsom. Komfort bedømmes ikke i top - jalousidøre fra soverum til toilet/badeværelse er ikke lige min stil, men kompenseres rigeligt af alt det andet stedet byder på”

”we stayed in one of the sculptures. we liked having 100% privacy (no shared walls/floors/ceiling), the top open to the sky, the large shower, and the firm bed. The fridge was also handy for storing drinks we had bought at the grocery store. The pool was great for dangling feet and enjoying the amazing view. Highly recommend doing the "Ruta de pontes" hike for even better views. The breakfast is great, plenty of options. The dinner not so great, but the moscow mule was great.”

”First ever visit to a schist village, and it was wonderful. The bed was very comfortable, AC was excellent, kitchen was very well equipped. Breakfast is made to order (pre-ordered) every morning and is excellent. Staff is attentive and accomodating, we found our room made up while we were at breakfast. A really special detail. ”

”Lovely hotel with stunning views. Tiny outdoor pool area and uncomfortable chairs on the veranda and bedroom terrace but the view made up for everything. The food was excellent (very large portions!) ”

”Everything was great. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was fantastic! No complaints and will stay there again! ”

”We came here at an off-peak time so the area was very quiet. The hosts were lovely, attentive, and helpful. The breakfast in the morning was delicious, and so thoughtful and homemade. We would come back here again around the summertime when we can really have a chance to explore the national park!”
