The incredible staff, always trying to make us feel like home (and they made it!). The view, the delicious breakfast. We booked a massage and it was awsome!

Breakfast is not buffet but includes everything you would normally ask for in a buffet (this is done to prevent food waste which I agree is a good move, you can ask for as much more as you like), the items on breakfast were very good quality too. The dinner menu was very good. The staff are extremely accommodating to pets, we brought our two dogs and we were treated very well. The surrounding area has a lot of routes for exploring which are off-roads, perfect for exploring with canine companions, the hotel itself is an excellent base camp for visiting most of the areas of interest in Serra da Estrela. What we found amazing are the natural waterfalls within the hotel; a tip if you enjoy bracing the cold is go to the sauna and then enjoy the waterfall shower!

From the exceptional welcome by Nuno, the facilities, the friendly staff…. We just love it here but don’t tell anyone else! We also loved the cat 🐈- so friendly and lovely to see the pets. Exceptional design, spa really sweet and food wonderful. We enjoyed a walk too and the village locals are sweet. Could easily stay here 3 nights getting away from it all… chill out central.

We are completely amazed by this hotel! A real 5 star service and it’s the case when you even feel you are getting more than what you paid for! The place is located in the old village completely integrated in the landscape and even got a waterfall right in the hotel borders! All the food is local and fresh. Additional plus is the spa area that you book only for yourself, in our opinion it was priceless and make you feel like a real VIP guest. Our dog also got a special treatment and gifts. We will come back many many times!

The staff is very frindly and hosting, I felt like I was a guest that had been waited. Hotel administration truly values your stay and comfort and offers room upgrade when they have spare. It is also notable in every detail. Feela like all hotel, service and atmosphere is a guest oriented. The hoter exterior and interior design is decent and minimalistic, made with nature materials and colors, that helps you to relax from eye pollution. The restaurant service and food are great and delicious, I even tried currant (which I haven't been able to find for a long time). Moreover, the location is perfect: you live in a small village in 5star hotel observing picturesque viewes and having beautiful hiking trails nereby.

We, a family of 3, just finished our stay at Casas da Lapa. All of us enjoyed every second of our stay: from check in to the last moment of check out. The property is located in a marvelous, founded at medieval times, village. It is a tiny and super tranquil place to walk along numerous routes, meditate, breathe clean air, swim at mountain river beaches (very cold, clean and super refreshing waters at nearby praia fluvial, highly recommend!). The hotel is wonderful, and consists of renovated old houses and a newly built block. We enjoyed a lot 2 outdoor swimming pools, small but cosy spa, library and a cinema room. We stayed in room #2 which boasts a great view over the valley. During our stay, in order to meet an emergency need of one of the guests, we were asked to move to room #3, which bigger in size and in fact suited us, as a family, even more, although does not have such a great view and privacy. The hotel is very pet friendly, all staff is absolutely helping and welcoming. Food: breakfast and lunches are super filling and tasty. Dinner: a set menu concept with a selection of wines. Quality and taste of dishes is top notch. The only wish is that I would personally like to have a bigger size of portions at dinner (at least for main dish) and a bit earlier time of start of the dinner (at least at 19:30). Hotel also offers red and sparkling wines of its own production (vinhais do Sabarro) - excellent quality and taste. We especially liked the red one, very thin in palate and aroma, somewhat of Valpolicella from Italy. We highly recommend this property to solo, couple and family travelers. Hotel and its amenities are perfect and the village is magnificent. Local people are friendly and welcoming, always greeting you at the street. If you are looking for a perfect getaway from noise, buzz and fuss of city-style life to clear up your mind, to think, to enjoy nature, sunsets, along with comfort, service and great food - this place is for you!

The staff facility care food amenities were all exceptional It's such a pleasure to rate this extraordinary place where we stayed for 3 nights . The room itself was immaculate and super comfortable. The facilities is in great standard, very well equipped and pleasant I had a back injury and hence was stranded in the room , the owner Maria-Manuel has personally taken me to the hospital and took great care of me during the process including  helping me get medications, and the staff bringing food to the room and taking care of all our needs in a very gentle kind and friendly manner. Later when we looked for an easily  accessible shower the owner upgraded us to a suite that has an accessible shower. I couldn't  even dream of such a caring and compassionate service🏆 The staff was super accommodating and friendly and the rest of the amenities were gorgeous In spite of our circumstances we genuinely enjoyed this hotel's extraordinary hospitality and warmth. 🥂 Thank you !
