Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, you'll need to leave them at home — the pousada's policy is strict on this.
  • Check-out is at 10:00 or 11:00 — The check-out window is a bit early, so plan for a relaxed morning rather than a lazy lie-in if you want to make the most of the last day.
  • Dining options are limited on-site — There's a restaurant and coffee shop, but no room service or 24-hour dining, so late-night hunger might require a trip into Cunha.

“We loved the forest view from the chalet. The bathroom and shower were great, and parking right next to the cabin was convenient. We relaxed on our own hammock and bench, enjoyed the pool, and the breakfast offered a good range of options. Staff were kind.”

“The green setting is a perfect break from city life. The wooden cabins have comfortable beds and hot showers. It's a quick drive to an excellent national park with great scenery and wildlife.”

“This is a serene, private spot for peace and quiet. It's easy to get to the city centre and explore. The chalets are cozy and well-kept, with a nice bathroom. Relaxing on the hammock among the trees was a highlight. Staff were courteous and attentive, and the facilities—pool, fire pits, and huts—kept us entertained.”
