Amazing hosts in such a nice and quiet place to stay

Reviewed By alberto_eme

Such a nice quiet place! Having only three rooms makes this small accommodation a very pleasant place to relax - we were the only ones in that night, so, no kids jumping into the swimming pool. The room was nice and the outside spaces were really pleasant, with a good terrace and a very good and beautiful swimming pool. The breakfast was really good. The hosts are amazingly friendly, which makes a real difference on turning your stay into a pleasant stay.

Good value for money

Reviewed By Soton1_12

We received a warm welcome on arrival at the hotel. Receptionist spoke English and offered us drinks which was lovely with the bar overlooking the river. The pool was open which was ideal because we had found many hotel pools closed in April. The pool wasn't heated but was warm enough being sited in the sun. Room wasn't big but had a lovely view of the river and a balcony to sit on. Breakfast was good.

River oasis

Reviewed By chiyoishikawa

This was one of our favorite hotels during a month-long tour of Portugal. We paid extra for a River view and were glad we did. The room was small but had a balcony where we could sit with a glass of wine and watch the swallows in the evening. It is simple and sleek, and everything works. It is also worth paying the supplement for the excellent breakfast buffet. Many biking tour groups stay here but the excellent management sees to everyone’s needs and we could all coexist harmoniously. The staff are very helpful with restaurant recommendations. Mértola is lovely and we were glad we liked the hotel enough to stay another night.

Quinta do Vau is a gem

Reviewed By MrsPiket

Quinta do Vau is a nice B&B located at the left bank of the Guadiana River in Mértola. The B&B offers 15 rooms, some with kitchenette. The B&B has a small pool with deck chairs, a lounge with breakfast facility and a large terrace with view of the river on top of the second building. Staffs are friendly. We had room 11 with a view of the river. The tastefully furnished & decorated 22m2 room had a balcony and private bathroom. The room had a kingsize bed with a average mattress & hard pillows, table & chairs, air-conditioning, club-chair, and a well outfitted kitchenette with coffee-machine, fridge, magnetron, stove top, sink, and all utensils you need. The sunny balcony had with 2 comfy chairs and small table & 2 chairs. The separate bathroom had washbasin, spacious shower and toilet. All was impeccably clean. The next day we moved to room 15. Again a 22m2 room with the same outfitting. Instead of a shower this room had a bath-for-2 with view of the river. Free Wi-Fi & parking. A very good breakfast is served with a nice variety: eggs made to order, ham & cheese, bread, yoghurt, freshly pressed orange juice, fruit & preserves, pastries, tea & coffee. We found Quinta do Vau very pleasant & comfortable, and we had a nice stay. Highly recommended.

Great location, naturalist host

Reviewed By maryinseattle

Our room was filled with natural light and lovely views of the river (not to mention the goats across the way with tinkling bells and all the birds). Our hosts made available to us birding books, walked us to Islamic museum to make sure we found it and generally introduced to a very lovely area. We originally headed here on a lark and found a community with a lot of history, natural beauty and quiet.

Agro-Turismo Monte da Galega

Great value and beautiful location

Reviewed By extremealgarve .

We arrived off season to a nice warm smile. The room was very big, nicely furnished and as we ate in, the kitchenette was also sufficient for our cooking. We didn't try it but their breakfast looked amazing. The grounds were a little unkempt but it was the end of the season. I guess the only stain was the 2 big German Shepherds tied up on long chains Auschwitz style as you enter the grounds :( also the little doggy tied up by the chickens :( so if you're coming please bring some little snacks for them and give them a little love. On the flip side the grounds also had, donkeys, cows, chickens, ducks, geese, goats and a little beautiful baby deer. :)

Great lunch

Reviewed By AmazingGreys

We had a great lunch in this fantastic place. Few guests, due to season of course, but the lunch was really great. Mértola is situated in the Natural preserve area Guadiana, not far (60 km) from the Algarve coast, on the road from Catro Marim to Beja. Well worth a visit!
