In the heart of Alto Alentejo and situated between Elvas (7 Km) and Badajoz (15 KM), Quinta de Santo Antonio is a veritable oasis for those who seek tranquility, beauty and superior quality of service. Quinta de Santo Antonio currently encompasses 17 hectares and lies within the Herdade da Amoreira estate. It portrays the Alentejo in an atmosphere rich in tradition which takes one back in time. The main building, in conjunction with its chapel erected in 1715, embodies the finest architecture of the traditional estates, and blends harmoniously with the XVIII gardens and the distinctive rural Alentejo landscape. Taking into consideration the architecture of the ancestral building, the interior was completely restored and currently possesses 30 rooms in which the emphasis is on tailor-made traditional decoration. Each room is equipped with a private bathroom in marble, hairdryer, towels and linen, amenities kit, extra pillows, air conditioning, television, telephone, minibar and a private safe.

A very classy complex, it presents itself as a splendid period farm, with lakes, ponds, agricultural crops, magnificent internal rooms, with period furniture. Breakfast up to par. Comfortable and functional room. Air conditioning, Wi-Fi and television in order. Highly recommended also for the price.

Very welcoming place, excellent for a super quiet weekend, away from everything, but just 5 minutes from the center of Évora. Very friendly staff. Spacious facilities with classic decor. Good cleaning. Good breakfast (in a 4 star hotel, the tables should have some tablecloths...). Restaurant with typical dishes and fair prices. Building with many pleasant rooms and corners (bar with fireplace, games room, room with piano, chapel, among others). Of course, installations that are almost 30 years old need a few touches, but it's still a good experience. I recommend.

I was staying in July this Thursday, when I arrived I encountered the deficient cleaning that the toilet presented, having gone to the reception to request a maid to clean. When we arrived at the reception to make the check-in we were waiting for someone to come for the purpose, to order towels for the pool we always have to wait because it is not permanent the presence of the employees. It is rated i 4 stars but effectively it is not. The farm does not have the outdoors care,the cleaning is poor,in the tables from the outside to the room kept if 3 cups that were never taken.Colchao covered,and the bath outside does not see cloth for a long time.It is urgent to carry improvement works.small lunch weak and the dairy do not see cloth weeks ago.I had everything to be good only that not.

A disappointment. The farm has a huge potential, but it is a very poorly cared for farm both inside and outside. Inside the rooms showed little cleaning, where dust was found on all sides. Outside, the space has a good pool and some gardens, but most of the spaces are very poorly cared for. The very unpleasant receptionist. We arrived, there was no one to receive us, I called the contact of the space, in which we heard from the other side: ‘They are always calling here, they do not leave us alone’. The breakfast with very little offer, little employee sympathy and low quality. It had everything to be a great experience, but that didn't happen.

Bad experience Very old room and no maintenance qq. Bath mat with mud, spider webs all over, air conditioning doesn't work, loose floor, hot tub.... The worst I've ever seen. The photographs do not correspond to the current state of the farm. It is far from a 4* hotel In the past it must have been a charming place, but today needs general renovation. The only positive point was the attention

Very good stay! Very friendly and attentive staff. Large space, with outdoor spaces and indoor lounges. The outdoor spaces could have been better looked after, and the farm needed some work. The restaurant is very good, the staff is very attentive.

Small friendly Hotel on main road just outside the village only 15 mins drive from Funchal-Santa Cruz airport set amongst woods at 660m above sea level. It has a very pleasant garden with fishponds and exotic plants and a patio area with seating to take the mountain air whilst having drinks from the bar. The Hotel has a nice restaurant serving local Madeiran fare and the staff are very friendly and helpful always ready with a genuine smile. The rooms are clean with TV and large en-suite facilities and there is a separate TV lounge with Pool table and other games. The only drawback is the locked front door which is opened from inside the Hotel following a ring on the bell - the reception is not permanently manned and on one occasion there was no-one available to open the door - it was necessary to wake other guests to gain access. The village of Santo da Serra has a small park with caged animals and picnic areas.There are a number of bars and small restauarants in the village and a couple of small supermarkets. On Sunday there is a market and the September Cider festival is worth a visit with open air barbeques where you cook your Espetada (big kebab on a laurel stick) washed down with the Cider of the festival - lovely stuff. I would certainly stay there again depsite the problem with the front door which is the only black mark.

In the countryside a beautifuly renovated 19th century mansion is perfect. The air is so pure, the pool is lovely and there is plenty of beautiful gardens to walk around in. Marvelous fountains and statues make this hotel one of my favorite family getaways. The people are friendly and the food is amazing. Some of the best portuguese food that I have ever had and I am portuguese. And honestly it is all you want in a five star hotel but without the big bill. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

At First glance we thought that we had the wrong place and driven up to a farm (was raining heavily at the time). We checked in at the old building as we advised the reception staff that I was travelling with my elderly parents. We managed to park right outside within a few steps from our rooms. We ate at the restaurant that night but not worth the money you pay thought it was handy. we would have ventured out to the town but with my elderly parents would have been a challenge. Overall the weather spoil't for us but needless to say that the setting and surroundings would make it a perfect location for countryside retreat.. Probably return in the Spring...

"We had the far corner room in the new wing which was great for relax as it was kind of far from all the others (except a Suite standing right next to it). And you can park the car right in the back as well."
