For many years it was, me & my wife love retreat. Last time we have been there we were diisapointed. Bad manteinance was evident, the service was awfull. Nevertheless the location is a must. Quiet.

The blue tiled chapel and the cloisters were stunning. The hotel restaurant staff were standouts - they remembered our favorite wines, offered suggestions, and even made meals for us that weren't on... more

Just over an hour from Lisbon, away from the hustle and bustle just outside the whitewashed town of Arraiolos you'll find this 'pousada' nestling in valley overlooked by a fort and flanked by a lake, hills, trees, sheep and vineyards .
