The rooms are equipped with air conditioning anyway. We absolutely loved this refreshing “summer night coolness.”

Thanks to the relative proximity to Lisbon and Évora, we took the opportunity to go on a couple of day trips. In addition to exploring the Alfama district in Lisbon, we were also impressed by Évora’s beautiful historic center.

We had a wonderful three-week stay at Herdade do Vidigal. Joao and Teresa came to greet us personally and were incredibly thoughtful and attentive throughout our entire stay.

Nous avons eu un super séjour dans cet établissement. Les lieux étaient très propres et l’appartement que nous avions était très bien équipé pour répondre à tous nos besoins. L’emplacement de l’établissement offre une vue incroyable. L’accès à la piscine a permis aux parents de se détendre avec la vue en ayant les enfants à proximité qui s’amusaient.
