We really loved to stay in Herdade Monte do Sol . We stayed for three weeks ! The apartment is big, the view is exceptional. Very calm and quiet, the air is fresh and amazing. In the night you hear the sound of frogs , so lovely. There are several peackocks, we so enjoyed their beauty.... We love birds, and so it was lovely for us to hear the birds twittering and singing all day long. It was wintertime when we stayed here ( February) we were surprised to see how lush green was the whole place , we went for walks on the poperty, it is big ! and beautiful ! there were flowers everywhere, and flowering trees ! Hens and roosters , very healthy looking. Horses, goats , friendly dogs and cats. ( they did not come into the house , if you did not want them to ) The host family is very very friendly, they helped us with everything. ( for instance Sofia and Daniela arranged for a massage therapist, when one of us hurt their back. ) Sofia even offered to wash our laundry, very much appreciated! Her partner ( I cant spell his name) gave us very good Portuguese wine to try... Everyone was very caring. Thank you so much ! We were served beautiful and rich breakfast to our apartment every morning. The apartment was cleaned every day ! Fresh towels and bedding every few days.... Cleaner ladies very friendly and unintruive too.. And the bed is comfortable ( very important for me ) When my daughter's children came to visit us, they always made a lot of noise, but they were completely accepted. It made our stay so relaxed . Thank you again ! I really really loved the view ... Even on the days when it was rainy and windy and cold . the view was so beautiful .... Amazing sunsets to watch ! I would definitely recommend this beautiful place to everyone. And if we come back to this area, we will surely...

Read moreOur recent stay at Herdade Monte do Sol in Aljezur, Portugal, was truly exceptional. Nestled in the heart of the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park, the property offered a perfect blend of tranquility, natural beauty, and comfortable accommodations.
The room we stayed in was beautifully designed, seamlessly blending with the surrounding landscape. The private terrace with an outdoor dining area and a hammock provided a peaceful haven to relax and enjoy the sea view with fresh air. The lovely fireplace, with logs burning in the evening, further enhanced our experience.
I was particularly impressed by the staff's hospitality, cleanliness, and attention to detail. They truly went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and memorable stay.
For those seeking a peaceful getaway, immersed in nature, and close to breathtaking beaches, Herdade Monte do Sol is an ideal choice. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a rejuvenating and unforgettable experience...
