São Lourenço do Barrocal, hotel in Monsaraz

São Lourenço do Barrocal is located in the foothills of the medieval village of Monsaraz and nearby the Alqueva lake.

Wow, what a gem of a hotel. This is a truly spectacular property that exceeded even our high expectations. The staff and service were fantastic and the place gives you an immediate sense of calm. The surroundings are absolutely stunning. What we also appreciated was that the food, drinks and activities were not overpriced, so you left feeling like you were not taken advantage of, which can be the case for a lot of high end hotels. The food was delicious and in beautiful settings.

    Wonderful, fantastic.

    Wonderful, fantastic. I loved the peace and harmony that one can breathe, Monsaraz at the top of the Monte, and the company of the chickens, ducks and turkeys. I wrote in peace, in the company of my friends and with the guidance of the stars of a fantastic sky, the likes of which I had never seen.

    A day is all you need for the city of Monsaraz.

    A day is all you need for the city of Monsaraz. If you want to explore Reguengos and it's vinyards then you may not need to stay in Monsaraz itself which is difficult with cars. We visited the week leading into Easter Sunday and very few restaurants were open in the evening, in fact we only found one so be prepared to wait and have limited choices

    Nice castle. Be sure you research your stay options.

    Nice castle. Be sure you research your stay options. There are rooms at the castle itself as well as nearby houses. The hotel we stayed at was a bit overpriced and disappointing. Views are incredible from the top. 2 hours is enough to have reserved lunch at the castle and then walk around the grounds for photos. Or 1 hour without lunch. Parking is tricky and we parked near the bottom and walked 10 minutes up the hill

    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz,...

    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz, maintains the magic from ancient times like few others in the world. Made of lime and schist, this place whispers us, between the echo of our footsteps in its streets. A lot of magnificent stories could be told about its courageous kings, Knights Templar, brave people and dames of simple beauty. Now the night is covering you with its cozy blanket of stars. Sit down at one of the restaurants in Monsaraz. Taste the best traditional Alentejo food, like the crumbs or the lamb. As for Alentejo wine, savour a good Reserva Monsaraz with your meal. The view over Alqueva Lake completes the sensory nirvana. Don’t finish your night without admiring the show of constellations and planets, which shine more intensely on the sky.

    Monsaraz is genuinely one of the most beautiful places I’ve...

    Monsaraz is genuinely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. It felt like stepping back in time to a slower pace of life, a rustic, cobbled haven with the most fantastic 360 degree views of the lake, valley and the castle on top of the hill. It is well worth putting on your alarm to wake up for the sunrise when the village is still asleep and watching the place wake up including the animals on the distance. It was spectacular. The food was local and very rustic and delicious using produce from the Alentejo (we ate at Sabores de monsaraz and were hosted by Isabel, a local lady with a small but delicious local menu). The wine was also really good. It was incredibly hot (45 degrees) so would maybe be better to visit outside of the summer months. The vineyards surrounding monsaraz were beautiful we had a very special meal at Esporao, which is well worth the money having the 7 course tasting menu and accompanying wine flight, it felt like immense luxury whilst capturing the charm Portuguese food and produce. The village itself doesn’t have a shop for essentials so my advice would be to drive to reguengos de monsaraz prior to your stay to stock up on water and snacks so you can relax when you get there. It truly was a magical place to stay for a few nights.

    A small walled village set atop a hill, with 360 degrees of absolutely stunning views. Not a huge amount to do in the village proper. The castle for sure. Also some excellent wine shops selling local wines (check out Ar d’Alentejo). Taverna os Templários is a must stop for lunch or dinner. Cars can’t be parked in the village during the day, but there are several lots right outside the walls with easy access to the village. We spent a day exploring nearby Neolithic dolmens and menhirs, lots to see within a half hour drive.

    overall everything is peaceful and cozy. it’s a farmhouse property that has been redone to modern tastes with a quirky, designer’s touch. they provide and serve a generous and varied breakfast of fruits, eggs, bacon, and breads with Portuguese and Brazilian twists — far superior to the typical American hotel breakfasts. The eggs are sourced from their own chickens. the views and surroundings are quite beautiful and peaceful. you’re situated in a small charming village with three restaurants.

    What a marvelous jewel amidst the wonderful willage of Monsaraz. We only had an overnight stay, but wished we could stay longer. The hosts are warm and engaging. The interior courtyard with lemon and orange trees is enchanting (where you can wind down and enjoy breakfast), the pool, albeit small, is refreshing and offers a spectacular sunset view and the rooftop patio is enchanting. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed.

    Very cute, clean, and spacious apartment with a large enclosed back patio to enjoy outdoor grilling and breathtaking nighttime stargazing. Walking distance to two fantastic restaurants (Sem-Fin and Foral MDXII), which my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend. The Castelo de Monsaraz is a short 5-minute drive away. The apartment is equipped with all the provisions for a longer stay.

    This was our second visit, to what is a gorgeous family home. It is a little piece of heaven situated on a plain, near lakes just below the beautiful town of Monsaraz. Breakfast is the best ever. Fabulous selection of fresh fruits and juices local cheeses, ham, salami and the best warm croissants ever. Thank you Sergio and your amazing ladies. We hope to see you again.

    The location is truly breathtaking, the only thing you hear are birds and crickets, absolute silence. The sunset view over the plain is a work of art and during nightfall, the sky is full of stars, be prepared to be amazed with it. Breakfast was really good and the staff was incredibly nice. One of the best places I've stayed in Portugal so far.

    About 7 minutes to the Castle. Great location. Can see the castle from the hotel. Hotel grounds were nice too. Pool seemed open even in December though the water was cold (I didn't swim but felt it). Very friendly staff. Quick check in. Parking on the grounds.

    Location is great and the building has lots of character. It’s a great venue. Very original. We had tickets to go to the observatory at night and it’s only 5 minutes drive from the hotel. Monsaraz is beautiful and it’s only a short drive from the hotel.
