Hotels in Venda Nova e Pondras

"Enjoyed the location and relaxed friendly staff"

"much better than just excellent. Great room, view, nice people, clean, friendly. Off the beaten path where the lake is beautiful. Well worth it."

"This was one of our favorite places we stayed in Portugal. The lady who runs this is absolutely wonderful (as well as her pet goat and dogs). She even makes a lovely homemade breakfast, by request, for only 6€ a person. In the morning, we could smell her homemade bread baking. The suite we stayed in had a full kitchen, a super comfortable bed, nice bathroom and a beautiful balcony with a view of the hills. The property is very quiet and located in such a peaceful area. If we ever go back to Portugal, we are staying at this ranch again. "

"Unfortunately natural water fountains were closed. Working only on weekends this time of year "

"Great experience from the moment we drove to the entrance. Very good service. Spectacular building, tasteful decor and beautiful surroundings. Incredible breakfast and amenities. The only few things that made me not give it 10/10 was the fact you have to pay 10€ to use the spa, which I can’t justify with a hotel of this price tag. Also, we wanted to be bougie and order room service but neither of the phones in the room was working so we had to go downstairs to order which kind of defeats the purpose. The only open fountain has very limited hours open. "

"This property is the perfect place to unwind and relax. We especially enjoyed the staff who were so helpful in planning our tour, scheduling taxis and answering all our questions. Dine here too, the food is excellent!"

"No heating inside the room even after complaining at the reception, they gave me a little device to warm up the room but the noise was horrible. Couldn't sleep. No hot hoter when trying to shower - it happened on my last night. Also have some photos from lack of cleaning. Being a frequent user of Expedia, I expect a full return of money from this extremely bad experience."

"Only thing we regret is that we only started one night here as we on the way from Portugal to Spain! We couldn’t say enough about this historical hotel and can’t wait to expect one day we return for the longer stay. The free breakfast was served on an ancient stone table, hotel also served a wonderful dinner, it was delicious! Entire place was like a giant storyteller, the ancients buildings and its exhibitions brought you back a thousand years. A beautiful garden and courtyard with partially existing cloister ….. the hotel location also very close to the Portuguese only national park, Peneda-Gerês National Park, not far from Braga. Ideal location between Portugal and Spain! "

"Excellent hotel in good location for us. "
