In "The Adventure of Silver Blaze," Sherlock Holmes comments on the curious incident of the dog that barked in the night. That was the main problem of our stay at this hotel. The hotel allowed two dogs to roam free in the gardens, on which our room backed, and the dogs barked loudly until at least 1 AM. When we complained, the dogs were locked up for the next two nights but were out again on our fourth night. The other problem we had was figuring out how to work the shower, which has both an overhead and a hand-held fixture. It was not clear how to get the overhead to work, and we managed to flood the bathroom when the handheld came on instead and shot water everywhere. We had to use all the towels, which are mostly so thin we had to use the pool towels as bath towels, to soak up the water. Otherwise, we were mostly pleased with our room, which was large and clean, with plenty of room to unpack for four nights. Some of the furniture was rather worn, but the room was still attractive, and it was sufficiently well lit that reading was not a problem. The knob and lock on the outer door were set so low you had to bend over to lock and unlock the door. You have to be careful about opening the door, as the area swarms with mosquitos, and as careful as we were, some got into the room. The hotel has a very nice breakfast buffet served in the former wine cellar, and there are many good restaurants close by. A nice place to stay, but bring ear plugs in case the dogs are loose.

A traditional Quinta located opposite Jardim da Primer on Av. Dom Manuel I and the statue of Estatua Dom Manuel I. It is also on the shore of the estuary of the River Tagus. There is street parking in front of the building. Our room had ornate furnishing and was accessed off a large cobbled courtyard with some mature gardens at the rear. An excellent continental breakfast is served in a vaulted room accessed from the road. Early morning provided some good birdwatching along the shoreline as the tide was out with a good number of waders. Alcochete is a bustling waterside town and makes a great location to stay just a short drive from the city of Lisbon.

We enjoyed our stay for the most part however a few things were a bit frustrating. The room we reserved should have had two beds not one for my daughter and I. Ultimately they did make a good effort to rectify the error. The accomodations were otherwise nice and clean. The internet was poor which was a problem. The surrounding gardens were very nice as was the breakfast although it would have been helpful if available options for eggs other than hard boiled were made clear in english for non Portugese speakers.

One would be hard-pressed to find an accommodation with location, ambience, and activity within proximity to beach and restaurants, offering tranquility and respite once you passed through the gates of this Quinta. Quaint, relaxed, non-touristy location. We had two issues come up during our very brief stay, and the hosts were more than accommodating. We would have loved to stay longer and enjoy all the fabulous facilities, such as the game room with ping pong, darts, and snooker, pool and lounge area with expansive grounds, tennis court and pickle ball court, but had an international departure. This place was literally less than 30 minutes door to door to the airport rental car return. Breakfast was included in our rate and we found the offerings very good, meat, cheeses, yogurt, fruit, hard-boiled eggs, espresso, coffee, and fruit juices. Highly recommend as either first in or last out to rest from travels. Definitely book the larger rooms with kitchenette.

A real portuguese rural house, great charme, quiet, with gardens, very near to Lisbon centre (10 min driving + 30 min ferry, or by bus) . Warm welcoming by the local lady Mrs Robelio, flexible and helping. A place to go for relax after a day in hectic Lisbon. Some apartments have kitchenette and private garden. Excellent for couples and also for families. Warmly recommended.

Excelent place to stay. So calm and quiet with all that you deserve for a great rest. Room was big and had all you need. The garden and the pool….perfect. Very good breakfast and the staff was great. Its very well located in river front and near great restaurants. Highly recommeded

A wonderful hotel situated in an old renovated stable complex. Quiet environment with trees, gardens, pool, comfortable rooms & caring hosts. Excellent base for birdwatchers looking to explore the Tagus estuary. Breakfast was fresh, tasty and with good variety of fruits, breads, cereals (and of course the Pasteis de Nata).

We had a two night stay here towards the end of March as our accommodation whilst on a bird watching tour. What a fantastic place. It's so quaint and we loved it. Our room was really big and so unique. The breakfast room is out of the courtyard and in a door on the street and is in a converted cellar/storage room with so much character. The choice of food for breakfast and the quality and arrangement of it was really good. The gardens are a delight and we took the time to explore one morning before setting off for the day. We stayed in four different places during our trip to Portugal and this was our favourite by far. We hope to return again.
