Quintinha Sao Joao Hotel & Spa

An outstanding experience! The whole personnel was professional and pleasant. Breakfast was nice, I liked how they had focused on the quality instead of the quantity. Everything in the hotel was very well thought. I definitely recommend you to try the spa - such a relaxing experience! Some have criticized it for being too small, but it also means personified service and tranquility. Our room was on the top floor, and we could enjoy the beautiful sunrises and sunsets and how they landed on the mountains from our balcony. Definitely my favourite moments from our trip.

Restaurant : we visited Sao Joao because an ex-colleague had recommended the Quinta. Throughout our stay, the level of empathy across the staff was exceptional. One night of our three nights, we ate in the restaurant. The delicious food was undoubtedly the best of the three evening meals that we experienced. It was presented with flair and the restaurant staff once again demonstrated real warmth.

I wish to give them 100 not 10 ,we have met with love specially my baby ,early checkin ,perfect breakfast ,provided soft drink and water to the room , clean room with prett view and the people in reception are the heroes they saved our vacation and borrowed us a baby stroller until we receive ours and provide us with early breakfast in the room as we have early plan even our trip guide (not booked through the hotel) told us you choosed a lovely hotel, thank you dear

Rooms were very large and comfortable, the complimentary fresh bottled water each day was a nice touch. Courtesy mini bus to and from the centre was useful. All the staff were very helpful and pleasant. The breakfast selection was exceptional as was the standard of food, so well in fact, that we decided to use it all week for our main meal in the evenings off of their a la carte menu.

The hotel staff is amazing and made us felt welcome. It is a relatively small hotel, so you don't feel here like just another costumer, but you get to know all the members of the staff. We loved the restaurant - the food and the service were excellent. Also we were pleasently surprised that the hotel services' prices were very reasonable, sometimes even a bargain. The garden is very pleasant, even nicer than in the pictures.
