Tamara B., Wilminton, NC

Do not stay here, we left after one hour.
I was torn about renting this place, past reviews sounded great. The most recent review was not so good. On entry the property smelled musty and moldy. There were dead flies on the floor and live flies inside the home. The sheets were old and worn. I had an allergic reaction from the moldy air and we left after an hour. When I contacted the owner I requested a cancellation of our second and third nights. The response was there had been a lot of rain lately and they were not responsible for my medical conditions. They refused our request for any refund. There are beautiful places to stay in Evora and Monsaraz and the Alentejo Region is spectacular.

Not as advertised in a castle. No WiFi at the time due to storm? Rooms dusty. Linens were worn.
Disappointed by the castle adventure which is misrepresented in the description since the apartment is modern. Linens were old. Dusty rooms and smoke smell throughout. Big kitchen and great modern shower!

Magnifique vacance
Je recommande fortement cette maison. C'est très propre, agréable à vivre et dans un joli village qui est très calme. Tout est conforme aux photos et descriptions de l'annonce. J'espère pouvoir y revenir un jour et je vais recommander la maison à tous mes amis.

About the host

Hosted by Maria

Host profile image
We are the type of people who travel NOT to take selfies but to know specific places and people. We intend to analyse the footprints of those who came before us and remain in each place of the world that we visit.
We dont prefer 5 star hotels to show our friends photos of luxury places but only if we look for very comfortable places. To visit a site is, for us, to capture the soul of the place, people and have a glimpse of their art and story.

Why they chose this property

We inheritd this house from our family ancestors. It belonga us since 2 and half centuries. It was completely destroyed and recently rebuilt for the fourth time, now according with the law that protects Portuguese Heritage. The type of building comes from the XVIII century but it offers the comfort of a house.
Stone, clay and wood are traditional building materials tipical of the region.
