If you have a GPS device, you should be able to find the hotel quite easily if you enter the co-ordinates. it is up a very steep narrow road (look for the sign on the corner), but not far from the main village road. Very courteous and helpful reception staff. Beautiful large bedrooms with lovely views. Breakfast OK. Dinner much... More

We have stayed in this Pousada for Easter holiday and we really enjoyed the place. The convent is beautiful, with a very pleasant service. The only points where I think there is a room for improvement is the breakfast, I would like to see more variety, especially with fresh fruits, fresh juice, more variety of cold cuts, cheeses etc. and...

It could be a fantastic "hotel de charme". The building itself is very beautifull with interesting solutions from the architetctural point of view. the staff do what they can to make our stay pleasant but the direction doesn't enforce rules of common sense in any hotel like "DO NOT DISTURB OTHER GUESTS REST". Can anybody imagine children running in and... More

Without doubt, Pousada Convento do Desagravo is a very special hotel -- elegant, beautiful, peaceful, serene. It's architecture is divine, its landscape tranquil and wholesome, its facilities immaculate. How many hotels can offer a balcony of the size one finds only in palaces? And when one visits that balcony, see a terrain of rolling hills so lovely? The staff, too,... More

The people here were great. We arrived late because it is a bit tough to find if you are not familiar with the area. Felt some pressure to book a reservation with them for dinner. If you are looking for quiet, this place is great but there is not a lot to do around the area. We were travelling with... More

Third time is a charm. This trip, we visited three Pousadas. First one, we liked the Pousada, but we had reservations about the restaurant. Second one, we liked the restaurant better, but we were not so impressed by the Pousada. Finally, at Vila Pouca, we enjoyed both. Pousada is quite nice. As the name says, 18th century convent very nicely... More

A perfect place to escape the stress. It is located inside a large property that allows to find a quiet corner to read a book or enjoy the panoramic view. I enjoyed the pool, and the possibility of short strolls around the vineyard. The suite where I stayed was great, did comfortably accommodated the whole family, and had a large... More

My husband and I stayed at this lovely pousada 2 years ago, and while it hadn't changed much I was disappointed. We were almost the only people staying, we ate alone at dinner, atmosphere was lacking obviously. Dinner was disappointing too, limited menu. The pool was glistening in 30 degrees of sunshine, but I was told I couldn't use it,... More

I stayed in a suite and that was amazing, absolutely nothing to complain about, everything very clean, the bathroom was very good too with large space. We had a fantastic view for the mountains and also a large balcony. The Service of the staff was very good specially at the reception and at the bar. I recommend it for sure
