"The host greeted us at the gate with keys and a quick tour of the lovely property. This house is the best location in which we have ever stayed: Attention to detail is evident everywhere from the bed and bath linens to the kitchenware to the overall design of the unit’s layout. Very clean and brightly lit, yet with excellent privacy. The neighborhood is quiet and quite suitable for a stroll to view others' gardens. Guest comfort is paramount though and through."

"Saubere Schlafzimmer, sauberes Bad, saubere Küche, leider waren die Küchen-Abtrocknungs-Tücher schmutzig in der Schublade versorgt. Die Aussicht genial, der Garten erholsam und sehr gross mit Liegestühlen. Der Ort hat uns sehr gefallen , da wir die Natur lieben."

I highly recommend stopping here if you are on the Camino and want to stop in Caminha or Seixas. The private rooms are small but very nice. I had a view of the beautiful cathedral in town right outside my window. There is a beautiful view of the Minho River from the deck outside. The shared bathroom is very clean and the shared common room was large (as well as the kitchen). Patricia who runs it is also very kind and helpful. Definitely a 5 star stay!

This was a quick stop on way to the airport for us. Everything looked great. Our room was perfect for what we needed. I was worried about check-in but I called and had a quick response. Thank you!

We so enjoyed our stay here. From the expansive views over the Minho river, our guest room, breakfast, to learning about the history of the convent and its renovation by artist Jose Rodrigues. Joao was the most gracious host and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. We are very grateful to him for everything! A special place indeed.

Lovely clean rooms with a nice sized restroom. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Our room included a large outdoor area with table and chairs that our children enjoyed. Front desk staff was friendly and accommodating to our requests. The breakfast buffet was wonderful with lots of options for the whole family.

This five-star stone hotel is a true gem. The manicured gardens are stunning — every corner immaculately kept, perfect for peaceful morning walks. But what truly elevated our stay was the staff: warm, professional, and attentive at every turn. The management clearly sets a high standard, and it shows in the seamless, thoughtful service throughout — from check-in to housekeeping to dining.
A beautiful property backed by a team that genuinely cares. Highly recommend! Management should be proud!

This place was beautiful and amazing. Wood floors, marble everywhere and a great swimming pool. I am so happy! The staff were friendly and warm. They seemed like family. The room was the perfect temperature, very comfortable and clean. There was an elevator. There were toys for our child. It was quiet and felt secluded. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We could not have asked for more. The photos and reviews do not do the hotel justice.

What an amazing experience!!! The property was beautiful. Imagine sitting on a lawn chair with donkeys grazing next to you. The owners were lovely. It’s a little off the beaten path and they even offered to drive us into town if we wanted to have dinner, but we suggest stopping at a market and picking up stuff to eat there as they have a kitchen and it’s so beautiful. He will want to enjoy the property.
