A well kept secret, a hidden gem, a sanctuary and a blessing to the stressed out city dweller - Monte Saraz is everything a weekend break should be. Fragrance of jasmine, palms and orange groves, private and romantic but also shared and open; medieval villages, excellent restaurants, neolithic monuments and horseriding all close to hand. Enjoy it while you can.

Monte Saraz is what in my mind a roman villa should look like back in the roman times, but with all the modern conveniences, especially underfloor heating. It may not sound like a big deal to have good heating, but if you plan to visit Alentejo in winter you will appreciate it. The Monte makes the perfect base for exploring... More

This Monte is very well restored and renewed by the owner. The suites and houses are beautifull located around the central part being the very nice central swimming pool: a real oasis particularly in summer time when it can be rather warm in the Alentejo. Breakfast is served outside, when the weather allows, with an overwhelming view on Monsaraz. All... More

We rented a one bed room appartment for a week and were very happy about it: perfect location, beautiful garden, fully equipped kitchen... very nice place

We had a casa with our own little garden, the casa is nicely furnished, the bathroom well designed. The pool is so beautiful, this alone is reason enough to come here. We've stayed 3 nights... More

Monte Saraz is a super cosy Alentejan property. Ii's rustic and very charming, peaceful and extremely agreable family run hotel. Perfect for slow turism, for those who like talking to people, visit places, but return to a quiet property, see the stars and forget the internet for a few days. We will definetely return for a longer stay, while exploring... More

Little Bali in Montsaraz, that is how we experienced the 'monte'. Because it was so hot outside, we enjoyed the cool room and the lovely pool with source water. There were lots of shadowy spots, where we could retire, read and dream, for instance under the old rosebush with a view on the lilypond. Breakfast was very good and so... More

this quiet resting place is an ideal stop for a couple of days at a beautiful nature with a good breakfast and a nice cool pool thanks
