My mom and I spent two nights at the Quinta and wished for more. The moment we stepped out of the car the amazing fragrance of jasmine and citrus blossoms welcomes you. It was cool and a bit rainy, but that provided us with stunning hillsides covered in wildflowers. This is a truly special place! Wonderful for relaxing or heading... More

Charming rustic Quinta. Charming Family. Beautiful setting with lake views and gardens tumbling down to the lakeside full of birds and other wildlife. Came for 4 day break in May to chill and relax and did exactly that. Its a favourite haunt of walkers and bird watchers so if thats not for you - you can get the whole place... More

Its interesting that most of the reviews are by Frank's friend, that is because when you leave this wonderful place you are Frank and Daniela's friend. That is the difference with this place and an ordinary Hotel, you become part of the family in a short time. The children and dogs are all part of it. Its sad that Sideways... More

My family spent a week here and had a wonderful time. The family are very warm and welcoming even the dogs make you feel at home! Frank is a very good birdwatching guide and took my father and I on two full day expeditions both of which were highly successful. If you are lucky with the weather you can relax... More

For a unique 'away from it all' relaxing holiday in a beautiful setting, this is the place! Frank and Daniela and family are excellent hosts, nothing is a problem and you feel genuinely welcome from the moment you arrive at the end of the track to the Quinta. Fatima and Dulce make up the happy and very efficient 'in house'... More

While on hol in Portugal my husband had to have a small operation and we came here to convalesce. What a great choice. Peace and beauty, good food and good people, and lots of lovely, friendly dogs. Large bathroom with huge bath. Our room was attractive with beautiful bed linen, and woke to the aroma of flowering jasmine that festooned... More

A true hidden gem! Frank and Daniela are excellent hosts and they'll make you feel immediately at home. Don't miss Daniela's home cooked meals and be sure to inquire about Franks passion for birds. We weren't/aren't birders - but you might become one before you leave La Quinta! Be sure to print out the directions - with those, its an... More

The Quinta is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and really relax and unwind. If you love the water, this place is paradise! There is a pontoon and lots of kayaks, peddle boats, and even a sailboat to choose from. Most places would charge to use a sailboat but here, its all free. One... More
