Quinta da Palmeira is a wonderful place. It has great and big rooms, delicious dinner and breakfasts, amazing places in the direct vicinity and the most important; friendly staff. I just cannot wait to have another opportunity to visit this place! We surly come back soon!

TOP! Ich, wir sind begeistert hier und in der schönen Landschaft gewesen zu sein! Wer kann und Ruhe und Zeit für sich und seine Familie möchte muss hier her

Um ambiente e decoração fantásticos. Bom serviço e uma linda vista

Adorei a estadia...eide lá voltar.

Uma maravilha mas não pode ser sempre

Excelente desde o primeiro contacto até ao check out. Os quartos são muito bons. Super confortáveis e espaçosos. Bonita decoração geral e limpeza irrepreensível. A vista é muito bonita. Pequeno almoço bem servido com produtos caseiros. Casal muito simpático e atencioso. Ideal para recarregar energias. Dois pontos negativos: preço elevado das refeições e não têm ar condicionado (apesar de mesmo com 30º no exterior a casa se mantenha fresca devido à espessura das paredes).

Adorei a estadia, o conforto e o à vontade

The bedroom is huge, with a super size, super comfy bed. Jack and Ana are great hosts with great attention to detail. The food is delicious (Ana is a great cook). Because we went there on separate dates they even ensured that we did not repeat the same dishes. The swimming pool has a good size and at the end of the day swallows come to drink there :) Everything was clean spotless.

Meraviglioso!!!! Una Posada da sogno nel cuore delle colline portoghesi! Raffinatissimo ambiente, romantico e chic! Un sogno! Il giardino, la piscina,la spa...Le camere sono superbe con bagni da sogno! Vale il viaggio, in un luogo isolato di assoluto relax! Gentilissimo il proprietario!

Espaço fantástico! Casa lindíssima e extremamente bem decorada onde degustamos um excelente jantar num ambiente requintado, tranquilo e mágico! Agradecemos ao Jack pela simpatia com que nos recebeu!!

Este local e bom para uma escapadinha

Heerlijk eten en mooie kamers. Vriendelijke eigenaren

Quinta da Palmeira is cold; and I don't mean the temperature. Here we received our coldest reception during our two week stay in Portugal. The owner, Jack did not offer his name, but was ready to get down to business when we arrived; we had to ask. His wife shook our hands, but did not introduce herself. This is the only place we stayed where we were not offered port or wine on arrival, certainly not a requirement, but a nice touch you might expect from a "Romantic Boutique." Also, this was the only place where there was no offer to help with luggage, even though we had to climb several flights of stairs to reach our room. Quinta da Palmeira served a pretty standard Portuguese breakfast, but they seemed to put out a set amount of food, and when, for instance, someone ate the last slice of cheese, no more was forthcoming. Eggs were offered; one morning my wife asked for her eggs over easy, the next day, poached. In both cases Jack seemed confused by her requests, and she finally just ordered scrambled eggs. After a day of traveling, we frequently like a cup of coffee, or tea, or perhaps a glass of wine. Quinta da Palmeira did not seem to offer this, and we hated to ask Jack as, whenever we did ask him something, we got the impression we were interrupting and/or bothering him. Our room was large and beautiful, but again lacking in warmth. The bathroom had hardwood floors, but no rugs. Shower gel and body lotion were available, but not shampoo. There was a nice chair in the room, but only one, so we could not sit together. The bed was comfortable for sleeping. Overall, the room was beautiful, but not comfortable. If Quinta da Palmeira had a comfortable common area where we could have sat, and read (or perhaps had a cup of tea or a glass of wine), it was not shown to us. We ate dinner at Quinta da Palmeira the two evenings we stayed there. The food was absolutely delicious, but the atmosphere was uncomfortable and tomb-like. Even though the food was excellent, it was "European" and not at all Portuguese. The first night we ate alone, the second night there was another couple. Even with the excellent music that Jack played in the background, it was uncomfortable, and again, cold. Perhaps it might have been more comfortable if more people were dining...I don't know. To put our stay in perspective, we had booked for three nights, and only stayed for two, even though, under the Cancellation and Change Policy, we were obligated to pay for the third night. We felt it was worth paying the 122.00 EUR for that unused third night in order to stay someplace else that was friendlier and warmer. Physically, the place is beautiful, and sits in a beautiful spot, but that was not enough...

Wonderful, quiet location away from the regular tourist track. Awesome property with big rooms, great pool, and really wonderful surprise dinners made by their chef. The meals here were probably some of the best meals we had in Portugal during our two week trip. The drink and wine selection was also superb! Location was in a small village with no services - but it was short drive to bigger village with everything anyone might need; and close to hiking trails in the forest, waterfalls, and the Schist villages of the region.

Stimmiges Boutique-Hotel mit viel Hingabe und Auge für Details eingerichtet. Ana, Jack und Vanessa umsorgten uns auf familiäre und sympathische Art und Weise!Wir kommen gerne wieder.

We were overwhelmed by this lovely hotel. It was a bit tricky for us to find as our GPS didnt have it located in its system; however, once found we didnt want to leave. This hotel was completely renovated to the highest quality. The grounds are beautiful and the views are stunning. Our room was amazing and every comfort was provided. We arrived a bit late; however, the owner (Jack) was kind enough to call in his chef who prepared an incredible meal for us. We were overwhelmed by this level of service. We were really treated like royalty. The next morning we had a lovely breakfast where everything was fresh and delicious. If you have the opportunity to venture into the countryside near Coimbre, I definitely recommend staying at this magical hotel.
