A meticulously designed small luxury hotel, nestled in a splendid retreat setting. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by Kim at reception, and Joao ensured our drinks experience was exceptional. The hotel, curated with design-led furniture and artworks, impressed us. We were pleasantly surprised with a welcome wine and delightful chocolates each evening. The intimate boutique spa added to the overall allure. Our experience was truly enjoyable, and we look forward to returning. Gratitude to the entire hotel team for their attentive care. P.s breakfast is incredible!

We had a lovely stay at Praia do Canal although the service levels aren’t quite at the level they should be for a 5 star hotel. The rooms, hotel, grounds and facilities are excellent. The design of the whole hotel is beautiful and it has so many fantastic touches in all the public areas. It’s also very peaceful and set in gorgeous and extensive grounds.

The hotel is situated in the heart of the Costa Vicentina Natural Park, offering a peaceful and nature-surrounded retreat. Architecturally, the construction is well thought out, providing guests with a sense of privacy and space while respecting the natural surroundings. The rooms and bathrooms are of a high standard, although the mattresses could be improved. The bar and lobby are very cosy, and the cocktails do not disappoint. Breakfast is in keeping with the standard of the hotel, with good produce and well-prepared food (although the service could be quicker and more attentive). I would definitely recommend this hotel for people who are not scared to drive through dirt and gravel roads, oddly it seems to bother many people, i thought it was quite refreshing. Staff is extremely attentive and always keen to help and facilitate.

Absolutely beautiful hotel and surrounds. We loved the rural location and the local walking/ hiking trails. We were well fuelled by a generous & expansive breakfast offering, great lunch choices & dinners. After exercising, we thoroughly enjoyed the pool and spa areas. The lady front of house in the spa was an absolute delight. Everyone should aspire to deliver her level of personal service (remembering names, time preferences, etc.). She made our trip! Overall a wonderful stay, we’d definitely visit again.

The breakfast is top quality and the staff were very friendly. A big thank you to Melanie (front desk) and Sasha (bartender) for their impeccable service. The room is clean and spacious, we had a nice view from our little terrace. Esteva Spa is definitely a must-do. Room service also very thoughtful and quick. It can get a little cold but they have heating system in the rooms that keeps it a very nice temperature. Very comfy beds and pillows. We wouldn't change anything about the rooms.

It’s clear that attention has been paid to details of the design and decor. It’s beautiful. Spacious room. Excellent service. Clean. Great breakfast spread. Love that you can access the sauna, steam room and areas in the spa at no additional cost. Well worth the cost.
