Herdade dos Delgados

The Pool, the view from our room, the Food, the spa Services, everything!

This was just an observation: being that we are in the Region known for cerámics I would have liked to have Seen some Portuguese vases instead of China made vases at least in the reception area.

Fabulous hotel in a beautiful location. Great & well kept sundeck & pool area. An excellent dinner in the restaurant. Superb sunset and sunrise as well as the clear night sky.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Location is beautiful and quiet.

Beautiful hotel, very nice staff, spacious rooms, very clean, good breakfast

We booked this hotel specifically to go stargazing. We were very very dissapointed to discover that the hotel itself was incredibly lighted during nighttime. It's situated in the dark sky reserve, but the parking lot, driveway, lobby, and the buildings surrounding the hotel (such as the convention center) were absurdly brightly lit. I understand that some lighting might be necessary for guests arriving at night, but at the very least, motion-sensored lights could be used that only illuminate when needed. We had to walk quite a distance to find a somewhat dark spot to look at the stars, but the light pollution was truly absurd for a hotel that promotes itself as a stargazing location. No wonder the words 'dark sky' had to be removed from everywhere in the hotel. If we had known this earlier, we wouldn't have stayed at this hotel.
