Very good

We arrived on a cold and rainy day in February so we could not enjoy the day.
The property and hosts were very nice and if we can return during warmer weather we surely would.

Nicht wie erwartet:
Wir hatten nette Mitarbeiterinnen, die uns freundlich empfangen und mit guten Tips versorgt haben. Die Anlage ansich war etwas ungepflegt und nicht wie beschschrieben. Wir haben ein
,helles Studio‘ gebucht und hatten ein dunkles feuchtes Zimmer…Auch die Fahrräder die zum Verleih stehen sind in schlechtemZustand!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you appreciated the friendly welcome and the tips from our team.
We’re sorry that some aspects of the studio and the bicycles did not meet your expectations. Monte Rosa is a small, nature-focused guesthouse, and we always aim to offer an authentic, simple, and peaceful experience rather than a standard hotel. Your comments will help us improve, and we will review the issues you mentioned to make the stay better for future guests.
We hope you were still able to enjoy some of the calm and restorative atmosphere of the property during your stay.
Warm regards,
Joana & the Monte Rosa family
Todo estupendo. Muy bien equipado. Dependiendo de la habitación tiene más equipación o menos pero eso no es un problema porque cuentas con una cocina exterior y todos los servivios que necesites compartidos. Ideal para ir con niños. Muy respetuoso con el medio ambiente
Wir waren für 11 Tage vor Ort und haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Die Unterkunft war mit allem Erforderlichen ausgestattet, das Gelände ist sehr schön und die verschiedenen Unterkünfte wirklich sehr schön eingerichtet. Es steht ein Pool zur Verfügung und eine Einrichtung zum Yoga. Meditieren etc. Wir waren rundum zufrieden...

Stunning and unspoiled nature! Great experience!
It was really nice and relaxing to stay at Monte Rosa. The location of Monte Rosa is great when you want to visit all of the algarve. The place is really beautiful with all the flowers and trees. Yoga, massage etc. and lots of info on other activities, services. They gave me a huge file full of informations for the hiking routes which was really nice. The dinners that I had there were unusual because I felt like having a dinner with bunch of friends with delicious dishes. And I enjoyed a lot the little details, such as the fresh flowers in my room or the bio garden with the signs or the eggs in the breakfast freshly from the chickens!
Thank you Sandra and Marieke, for this amazing experience! Definitely will return! So see you soon!
