São Lourenço do Barrocal, hotel in Monsaraz

São Lourenço do Barrocal is located in the foothills of the medieval village of Monsaraz and nearby the Alqueva lake.

Wow, what a gem of a hotel. This is a truly spectacular property that exceeded even our high expectations. The staff and service were fantastic and the place gives you an immediate sense of calm. The surroundings are absolutely stunning. What we also appreciated was that the food, drinks and activities were not overpriced, so you left feeling like you were not taken advantage of, which can be the case for a lot of high end hotels. The food was delicious and in beautiful settings.

Refúgio da Vila, hotel in Monsaraz

Set in Monsaraz, 500 metres from Monsaraz Castle and 47 km from Ducal Palace of Vila Viçosa, Refúgio da Vila offers air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

This is a beautiful quirky apartment, it was spotless. Isabel greeted us so warmly and the property had so many little extra touches that made it really special, We were there for only one night and didn’t cook but it seemed to have everything you would need. Really comfy bed and spacious bedroom. The views from the property are amazing and the little terrace beautiful. A walk literally around the corner gives you stunning views over Alqueva Lake and another few yards up the hill takes you into the caste and the village of Monsaraz. This is a truly special and individual place.

    Wonderful, fantastic.

    Wonderful, fantastic. I loved the peace and harmony that one can breathe, Monsaraz at the top of the Monte, and the company of the chickens, ducks and turkeys. I wrote in peace, in the company of my friends and with the guidance of the stars of a fantastic sky, the likes of which I had never seen.

    A day is all you need for the city of Monsaraz.

    A day is all you need for the city of Monsaraz. If you want to explore Reguengos and it's vinyards then you may not need to stay in Monsaraz itself which is difficult with cars. We visited the week leading into Easter Sunday and very few restaurants were open in the evening, in fact we only found one so be prepared to wait and have limited choices

    Nice castle. Be sure you research your stay options.

    Nice castle. Be sure you research your stay options. There are rooms at the castle itself as well as nearby houses. The hotel we stayed at was a bit overpriced and disappointing. Views are incredible from the top. 2 hours is enough to have reserved lunch at the castle and then walk around the grounds for photos. Or 1 hour without lunch. Parking is tricky and we parked near the bottom and walked 10 minutes up the hill

    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz,...

    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz, maintains the magic from ancient times like few others in the world. Made of lime and schist, this place whispers us, between the echo of our footsteps in its streets. A lot of magnificent stories could be told about its courageous kings, Knights Templar, brave people and dames of simple beauty. Now the night is covering you with its cozy blanket of stars. Sit down at one of the restaurants in Monsaraz. Taste the best traditional Alentejo food, like the crumbs or the lamb. As for Alentejo wine, savour a good Reserva Monsaraz with your meal. The view over Alqueva Lake completes the sensory nirvana. Don’t finish your night without admiring the show of constellations and planets, which shine more intensely on the sky.

    Monsaraz is genuinely one of the most beautiful places I’ve...

    Monsaraz is genuinely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. It felt like stepping back in time to a slower pace of life, a rustic, cobbled haven with the most fantastic 360 degree views of the lake, valley and the castle on top of the hill. It is well worth putting on your alarm to wake up for the sunrise when the village is still asleep and watching the place wake up including the animals on the distance. It was spectacular. The food was local and very rustic and delicious using produce from the Alentejo (we ate at Sabores de monsaraz and were hosted by Isabel, a local lady with a small but delicious local menu). The wine was also really good. It was incredibly hot (45 degrees) so would maybe be better to visit outside of the summer months. The vineyards surrounding monsaraz were beautiful we had a very special meal at Esporao, which is well worth the money having the 7 course tasting menu and accompanying wine flight, it felt like immense luxury whilst capturing the charm Portuguese food and produce. The village itself doesn’t have a shop for essentials so my advice would be to drive to reguengos de monsaraz prior to your stay to stock up on water and snacks so you can relax when you get there. It truly was a magical place to stay for a few nights.

    A small walled village set atop a hill, with 360 degrees of absolutely stunning views. Not a huge amount to do in the village proper. The castle for sure. Also some excellent wine shops selling local wines (check out Ar d’Alentejo). Taverna os Templários is a must stop for lunch or dinner. Cars can’t be parked in the village during the day, but there are several lots right outside the walls with easy access to the village. We spent a day exploring nearby Neolithic dolmens and menhirs, lots to see within a half hour drive.

    The hotel room was beautiful. The design was impeccable and the rooms and location were quiet and private. I wish I could decorate my own home so well. Bed was comfortable and I slept well. Shower was hot. At dinner there was only one choice, but the chef could prepare a vegetarian meal if you like. I tried vegetarian one evening because I don't eat lamb and lamb was the only main course option. This hotel was perfect and I hope to come back one day.

    Everything! The huge pool, peaceful atmosphere, staff gave excellent service, even went out of their way, putting tablecloth on selected table, breakfast was great, rooms comfortable and what a tiny quaint little village. Monsaraz castle and the area was wonderful. There is a lake nearby as well. And the sandwiches they made for us right before going home, we still talk about how good they were.

    Excellent refurbished convent with great decor and lots of great facilities such as snooker table, ping pong and even playstation for the guests. Breakfast made from good quality products and the staff always very helpful. The location is 2min from the Castelo de Monsaraz and the views are incredible. Book if you are looking for a peaceful getaway with your family or even on your own.

    Great place, very well-located (less than 10m by car from Monsaraz and Alqueva fluvial beach). The bedroom was great, very comfortable and super clean. The jacuzzi and the sofa outside were a plus, very pleasant to read and rest or eat a light snack (there is also a small fridge and microwave inside). Having a pool was also nice to refresh!

    well situated just outside the walls, the hotel is made of a few buildings with super nice terrassa and pool area. The buildings are old and built out of stone and very well preserved. It feels like going back in time. Very good breakfast that I did not expect because I think we were the only two customers.

    Perfect location, hosts wonderful, accommodation great. Monsaraz is a small and very old hilltop town with cobblestone paths everywhere, everyone was so friendly, and our 3 nights there couldn't have been better. Thank you also for the getting the kettle just for us, we really appreciated it.
