This is a beautifully designed, exceptionally maintained and stylish property in the midst of 'dark skies' and serene natural beauty. Despite the modern aesthetic, it also felt authentic, unpretentious and sits well in its surroundings. Staff were attentive, in an unfussy and intuitive way. The restaurant menu is focussed, locally inspired, and the chef and team are first rate. I was travelling with my young son and there were other families there; we felt very comfortable and welcome.

Couldn't fault it.

Very clean and quiet, great breakfast and staff were fantastic. Rooms were clean and felt very high end. The location is fantastic - it feels secluded and overlooks a beautiful lake, but you're near enough to head into town for dinner by foot (around 20 mins walk). Great service around the pool area. Overall a fantastic hotel and I'll be back with the family.

The rental bikes on the property are very bad and need replacing. Considering it's quite a cycle into town, I would say well-kept electric bikes would be a massive plus. The ones there are rusty with flat tires.

Staff were very nice. My only problem was that we went for a Valentine get away and as it is advertised as a Spa we choose it, but there was no Massuse on duty, and the jacuzzi was out of order. But will return to try their outdoor pool when the weather permits because view was lovely.

Herdade dos Delgados is a wonderful property located in one of the most beautiful regions of Portugal and on the shores of the Alqueva artificial lake. The building itself is (or looks) quite new, with spacious, well-appointed bedrooms, a large swimming pool, a very good restaurant and gorgeous views of Monsaraz (in the distance) and Mourão. Staff were very professional and friendly (especially Marcos, our masseur) and the food was delicious and creative.

There isn't much we could find fault with, but I would recommend more indoors activities, in case the weather is bad: this is very much a place to spend time outdoors, either enjoying the pool or exploring the region, but when it rains there is little to do. Perhaps wine tastings, or organized visits to local attractions would be an option...

The scenery is breath-taking. Once you enter the facilities you can feel an instant disconnect from the busy day to day life. The facilities and the surroundings are very quiet and you can enjoy waking up to the sound of nature and little ducks that seem to be hosts to the place as well. Dinner was amazing, portions are very fulfilling and the food is made with visible care. Big props for the decoration and all detail in the lounge and pools areas.

Not that I was unpleased so to speak but the staff responsible for the bar and eating areas could benefit from further hospitality training. The young girl with glasses was a sweetheart however, cheers for that!

Great place to relax , amazing view, quite (it is the low season so we were almost alone). Very clean, nice&helpful staff at the front desk (espacially Rafael at the night shift). Big and convinient room, comfortable bed. A lot of space in the shower.

We wanted to go out for dinner but we found out that all the restaurants closed on mondays so we stayed to eat dinner at the hotel and it wasnt so good and over priced. We wanted to book for a massage in the spa but unfortunaly it was not available

We go often to this place. It is very quiet, with magnificent views of Alqueva,. We also enjoy fantastic sunrises and sunset. The breakfast is very good. Let me add that I am very pick regarding breakfast, since it is my preferable meal of the day. It is my 5th stay over there and breakfast has always been excellent. Fresh fruit, squeezed orange juice, good homemade pastry, etc.

The breakfast was really GOOD! And we had dinner there and it amazingly cooked and presented. The room was tremendously comfortable, with an insanely gorgeous view over the artificial lake.

At night, due to water proximity, mosquitos were plenty and highly attracted to light sources. They could be a nuisance... But nothing that a insect repellent would not solve.

Incredible setting - very modern design which we loved. The views all around were stunning. Lovely to see Monsaraz lit up at night. Really loved this hotel. Everyone was so helpful. Breakfast and dinner were great. Sunset amazing.

Whilst the room was clean, there were areas that could have been cleaner - with all the glass in the common areas, it did need these keeping clean/cobwebs removed to get the full effect.

Overall the hotel is quite good. The food at the restaurant is really good, however there were some restrictions on the reservation schedules. The views are amazing.

Some decoration missing, for instance, the corredor of the acess to the rooms is completely empty. Having some shadows in the car parking would be nice.
