La maison est agréable et bien équipée. La piscine est grande, magnifique et permet même de nager.
La maison est spacieuse, les lits confortables.
Il manque juste un lave linge pour que le lieu soit parfait ! Merci à notre hôte Bernardo pour son accueil !
Passámos uns dias entre amigos e família. A casa tem todas as condições necessárias. A piscina é excecional! Aproveitámos para passear em Monsaraz e no Alqueva. Uma experiência a repetir.

Obrigado pelas suas palavras Jorge! Teremos muito gosto em recebê-los novamente! Abraço
Tudo exatamente como anunciado. A casa é perfeita para 8 pessoas (2 casais), grande área (excelente os 3 WC para banhos). Piscina e área circundante bem tratadas. Check in e check out acompanhados pela Tatiana com uma disponibilidade perfeita. A localização permite, em 30min de carro, conhecer a região do Alqueva e as suas principais praias fluviais. A melhorar apenas a quantidade de loiça disponível.

Obrigado Paulo pela sua review! Ficamos muito contentes que tenha gostado e aproveitado a Tapada e está fantástica região! Até breve e volte sempre.
We had an incredible stay in this lovely quiet village well away from the crowds of tourists. This gorgeous, large, cool, beautifully laid out house provided plenty of space for 8 people - 4 adults and 4 kids. The huge pool and garden area were fabulous and inside the big cool, airy, rooms equipped with a pool table, games room and a large comfy sitting room and spacious bedrooms meant everyone could spread out and properly relax. The kitchen is really well equipped and lovely to cook in, and the shaded outside eating space was just perfect.
The surrounding area is really interesting - beautiful hill top towns, a massive lake and a great observatory meant there was lots to see but without competing with too many other tourists. We had some great meals out, recommended by the host. This was a truly perfect holiday! Thank you so much for having us.
Belle maison, jolie piscine conforme à l’annonce maison typique sans vis à vis bien équipée (sauf machine à laver il faut aller à Intermarché pas cher et sympa ). Nous avons passé un très agréable moment au calme

Obrigado Ana pelo seu comentário, ficamos contentes que mesmo com temperaturas record no “nosso” Alentejo, tenham aproveitado para descansar, conviver e descontrair. Obrigado e até breve
Casa bonita, limpa, espaçosa e muito bem equipada.
Recebeu-nos a Tatiana, muito simpática e eficiente.
O único senão é o espaço mesmo à volta da Tapada: para andar a pé não é assim muito agradável. De carro, em poucos minutos há tudo o que é necessário!
A propriedade está localizada nas aldeias de Montoito, com acesso fácil. Está a cerca de 12km de Reguengos de Monsaraz onde se podem encontrar supermercados, restaurantes e outros serviços.
Gostámos muito da estadia, a casa é muito confortável e espaçosa, destacando o excelente alpendre, que proporciona jantares fantásticos à luz das velas, observando-se facilmente o céu estrelado da região Dark Sky.
A piscina e espaço anexo são excelentes.
Como nota negativa apenas o check-in tardio (17:30h) e o check-out muito cedo (10h) que nos fez perder quase um dia de usufruto da propriedade. Apesar de esta condicionante ter a ver com a necessidade de limpeza em tempo de COVID-19 acho que não deve ser suportada pelo hóspede.
Recomendamos vivamente esta propriedade para quem procura descanso e isolamento.
Caro Philip,
Ficamos muito contentes que tenham gostado da Tapada do Poço das Canas e que tenham tido uma estadia bastante agradável. Esperamos voltar a receber-vos!
Cumprimentos,
