Hotels Near Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Conceicao da Oliveira, Matriz de Alvalade in Santiago do Cacem

We had a great stay at Monte Do Giestal! It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy the countryside. The services are great: nice breakfast, a poolbar and the possibility to order your evening meal to be delivered at your house (so we could enjoy it at our terrace :--)). The staff was very friendly and accessible, they were present at lot during the day and always reachable through Whatsapp, which was very convenient. The house was really nice and spacious. The bathroom can use an update, but everything was very clean. Nice location for kids, with the 2 pools, tennis court, little playground and nice walk through the cork trees!

We stayed at Casas de Mirobriga for a week in August having been recommended the same by family who have been going there for a few years now. We wanted peace, quiet and tranquility, Casas de Mirobriga promised and delivered this and more! We took our three year old grandson with us and he absolutely loved it (he would kick up a fuss when it was time to go home at the end of a day at the pools!). The apartments were well appointed with everything one could want or need. The beds were very comfortable and the air-conditioning was a life saver! The staff were also amazing. Would we stay again? Most definitely yes.

This is our 3rd (or 4th?) stay at Herdade da Matinha over the years. It has grown and changed, but kept the wonderful simplicity and farm-stay (not your usual, ‘comercial’ resort!) feeling that make it such a special place. Don’t be put-off by the dirt road - it’s a rural setting, the road is well kept and good enough, and you wouldn’t want to spoil the area with yet another tar road in such an important ecological spot. The road to Praia do Malhao is much worse but you shouldn’t miss it either, by the way! Besides the 3 sweet dogs Gina, Paz and Dino (who will disappear at night ), there are at least two cats, horses, sheep roaming in a nearby fence and some wild animals if you are so lucky to spot them. This was a bonus point with my kids. Also, it’s very safe for kids - my boys loved wondering about with a map to explore every corner. The 3 pools (one for adults only) have comfortable decks with shaded areas. Our bedroom was a ‘family farmhouse deluxe’ - simple, no TV, but spacious enough for a mother with two young kids. Breakfast is good - many options available also upon request. Dinner was very good most days - great improvements here since our last stay. Even the kids’ meal is now proper food; tasty, healthier and better balanced! My only suggestion would be to offer a choice of salad to replace the soup (even for children) and a choice of fruit to replace the desert (to help reduce the sugar intake for people staying for longer periods). It’s a set menu (with a vegetarian option), but it worked fine for us. I find laundry too expensive. No ironing is available… There’s a new art gallery in the Herdade as well - be sure to check what’s going on there. Finally, everyone is super nice, cheerful and professional. Thank you all for your commitment. We’ll be back, hopefully!

With my great regret, a space with potential and simply without maintenance. It's little or no. We've just arrived, it was allocated to us room where TV was not working, the room was with an unsupportable heat, the bathroom gardens a miserable dirt. I called the room for the reception, insisted, it was 15:30, no one answered, I moved there and realized the staffer was alone and working. (as well as the support for bar and pool, only 1 official for a almost complete establishment, since the mini GP in the Melides cartridge was on that weekend and rented rooms for stay). I asked the reception staff whether the room had been seen before I was assigned and said yes (impossible and concerted not knowing). I was assigned another room as obvious... The area of the bar is swimming pool is sad as they don't give a swab when the day comes to clean the cocoa of the birds that was on the mountains. Several customers commented on the same and even a child was hurt in the grass area with so much as much as it had there, parents complained to the poor bar/pool official who was unfatiable and sympathetic. To not return, it is from those places with brutal potential and it's only going once
