Camping "Quinta das Corujeiras" — Hotel in Baião

We stayed here for two weeks with our tent literally under the grapevines. It was amazing to be here. The view is spectacular and the facilities are very clean. The hosts Petra and Setha are more than perfect in supplying you with ideas for activities and making sure you have the best stay possible. If you're lucky as we were Setha will prepare for you the best Indonesian food probably in Europe (we had the most amazing rendang with rice, beans/tofu in a coconutty sauce with a side of sour cucumbers, fried onions and kentankering). There are not a lot of places at the camping so you have a lot of privacy, which makes for a very relaxing time. If you're more of the type that likes a very noisy camping you should look elsewhere. It's a very natural camping; there is an amazing assortment of flowers growing around the camping, a lot of special butterflies, birds and the odd critter that crawls around. One thing to note if you have a very big camper or if you feel that your driving proficiency is at a low level is that the road to the camping is on gravel (or quite narrow if you take the other route on asphalt) and the road to the main level at the camping is relatively steep. You get used to it very fast and the hosts are more than happy to help where they can with tips or things needed. Thanks to Petra and Setha for a more than...

One of the best camping sites we‘ve ever been. Lovely place in a wonderful peaceful location with caring helpful people (even brought us to the mechanic to fix our car instead of doing their shoping). We felt immediately at home, the place has everything we know from our backpacking trips in good hostels (nice common places, a fridge full with their own delicious wine and beer, a hairdryer in the bathroom, a hammock in front of our camper ...). Furthermore you get fresh bread in the mornings and a lot of helpful advices (recommendations of nice restaurants and trips in the region) - all these little things make the difference to many anonymous places we‘ve already seen. Absolutely recommended, thanks again to our nice hosts, we wish the best for the future and hope to come...

Great place, hard to beat. Not only is the location, setup and infrastructure top notch, the owners are simply the most friendly and genuine people you could meet. Indeed, no swimming pool, restaurant or shop but a lovely small campsite amongst the vines and fruit trees. At the risk of being misunderstood, I particularly appreciated the fact that no nationality dominates, as has been the case in other places we stayed. Always best to have a healthy diverse mix of people, ages, etc. This was a particular plus during the once a week 'Indonesian evening', one of the highlights of our stay. Bit like the tower of Babel without the nasty end with all getting on, lots of stories exchanged and catering to match. Definitely worth the detour, even if you only intended to hang...
