I liked that it’s away from from any noice and big city. you can totally relax and recharge here. it’s also a good base for your day trips to beaches caves or whatever your destination is. it’s very eco friendly and chic. it has a lovely outdoor pool area and a very nice indoor pool/ spa with a sauna, steam room and small gym. the owners/ staff are beyond welcoming and nice and it felt like home away from home. we had one of the rooms with a kitchen and outdoor space highly recommend it. And as cat owners we had the pleasure of having the company of Princess the black and white cat every time we were in. she’s beyond friendly ,cuddly and very talkative. lol Made us miss our cats a bit less. The breakfast is great and fresh. No tv in the rooms but to be honest, we didn’t think about it once. there is one in the communal area if you need one but the pool table was way better entertainment. This place is truly a hidden gem.

A design led rural tourist experience, with eco, sustainable and spa credentials. Our room was spacious with an ensuite wet room and was finished to a high standard (quality doors / wet room / patio door sets). The bed was very large and comfortable. The room opened onto a private patio, All rooms are named after poets or artists. The property is an agro-tourismo venture and located about 5-6 miles outside Castro Marim in rolling countryside in a small hamlet called Rio Seco, so a car is essential to stay at Monte do Malhao. Breakfasts were fresh, local and portuguese and to a high standard, and taken in a very large family /dining / living room that overlooks the external pool and the setting. The Indoor pool was excellent and there is also a sauna / small gym and an outdoor pool. The accommodation doubles as an art gallery displaying local artists work and provides a cerebral space in which to relax. It is also located within a site that you are free to explore, including a watchtower on the highest point which gives great panoramic views. The hosts were engaging and provided excellent reccommendations on where to eat and what to see in the area (all of which proved excellent)

No Dislikes. It is car based so you need a car to explore the surrounding hills / towns / walks

Booked in haste because our original B&B found builders had unexpectedly moved in to renovate their next-door neighbour! We felt sorry for the B&B's owners, but not for ourselves as we landed in this beautiful eco-hotel. Small (9 rooms) and intimate, run by a very kind and welcoming couple (Alexander & Susana) and their delightful friend Ana. A series of interesting rooms - from comfortable doubles to larger more luxurious rooms with well-fitted bathrooms and even a couple with hot tubs! Very comfortable (large) beds and good showers. Eco-friendly products. Set into a hilltop landscape, the building is modern and smart. It includes an indoor pool, sauna, steam room and gym area, plus an outside pool. Many places to sit and sunbathe or stay in the shade. Several hammocks :-) Lovely breakfast with local products and good coffee. Close to excellent restaurants. 15 minutes from the fabulous and less crowded Eastern Algarve beaches and the beauty of the Ria Formosa - 35 km of islands, channels and waterways. A garden of flowers, trees and herbs with oranges. Several goats and a donkey. In short, a quiet, peaceful place to retreat from noise, stress and work (although it does have decent wifi if you must be digital).

Nothing - it was delightful.

Really quiet place, perfect for resting. Family friendly. The breakfast is superb. Outdoor and indoor swiming pools available so no worries about the weather. Staff and owners did excellent job and we felt most welcome. Thank You.

Struggled the mornings with early brightness coming from all windows. Me and my wife like really dark rooms, still we very much enjoyed this place.

staff were amazingly warm, welcoming, and friendly beautifully decorated rooms and communal spaces quiet perfect air conditioning nice bedding and decent pillows pools were clean and warm stunning location (definitely need a car!) perfect for exploring the eastern Algarve delicious burgers!

it could be difficult at times to find staff to help you, eg it is took us a while to find someone to check us in, and says the snack bar is open from 2-8 but could be hard to find someone during those times, which was frustrating when hungry and couldn’t drive elsewhere as had some wine already not much space in the bathroom to put things or hang toiletries bag

Everything. Breakfast gorgeous, made with local produce like eggs from neighbour. Comfy lounge area. Bookshelves like a university library. Indoor and outdoor swimming pools plus spa. Peace and quiet. Engaged and interesting hosts.

Nothing. Even weather was beautiful in February.

Breakfast was good, the orange juice was very fresh, also the eggs was made freshly by the request. Great SPA, they have out side swimming pool and inside swimming pool, they have also 2 saunas (steam and Finnish sauna), little gym. Great public and spacious public area. Rooms are also very spacious. Lots of art. We spent a lot time by the outside pool, great place to relax and taking the sun, comfortable sunbathing places and chairs. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Breakfast was limited. I was disturbed by toilet cleaners aroma.

Lovely warm welcome. Calm, serene and tranquil. Beautiful, natural setting. Our room was spacious with a big comfortable bed and lovely big bathroom. Breakfast was fresh with a range of choices. Staff went out of their way to anticipate and meet all needs. Really appreciated the friendly but unobtrusive approach.

Could not fault a thing!

We really loved Monte do Malhão!! The quietness, the environment, the art works, the sympathy of the host, the fresh pressed orange juice in the mornings and the breakfast overall. We had such a good time that we feel we need to go back.

We didn't like having booked such a short stay :) all rest was superb.
