"This well equipped, cosy cottage is exactly as the photos show. Everything you need to enjoy your stay, whatever time of the year. Great base to explore the Alentejo. Montoito is small but there's a supermarket, bank, bread shop and a couple of local bars."

"A lovely, cosy Alentejo style cottage situated in a rural area surrounded by vineyards, cork and olive trees. Everything was as described in the listing and the local property manager was lovely and made the check-in and check-out process seamless. A nice welcome basket was awaiting us of local wine, cheese and bread. Sadly, the view of the fields from the back patio was blocked by overgrown vegetation during our stay.

"It was very good, but infrastructure in Vila Alva could be better and dogs of the neighbours really terrorizing with loud barking sometimes."

"We had an incredible stay in this lovely quiet village well away from the crowds of tourists.

The kitchen is really well equipped and lovely to cook in, and...

"Jeder, der dem hektischen Alltag entfliehen und entschleunigen möchte ist hier absolut richtig. Eine überaus herzliche und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin, die das liebevoll eingerichtete und authentisch ausgestattete Alentejo-Haus ihrer Großeltern zur Verfügung stellt, damit wohlfühlen garantiert ist. Der Alqueva-Stausee, welcher u.a. auch zum Baden einlädt, ist nur wenige Minuten entfernt und befindet sich in einem wunderbaren naturbelassenen Umfeld."

"Gostamos muito. Casa tal como se vê nas fotos. Com todas as comodidades para um casal e filhos. Recomendo"
