Some places stay with you long after you leave. Moinho da Capela is one of those places.
Moinho da Capela — A truly magical place
This beautifully restored old watermill — Moinho da Capela, the Mill of the Chapel — sits nestled in the curve of a river, built on solid rock, with a Maria statue standing quietly at its door. When the devastating floods of early 2026 swept through the area — the worst Portugal had seen in nearly 30 years — the ancient mill was miraculously spared, while almost everything around it was washed away. With extraordinary love and dedication, the owners rebuilt everything from scratch in just three months to reopen for the season. The result is breathtaking — and somehow even more beautiful than before.
Vera is a wonderful host — warm, welcoming and genuinely caring. Everything was spotlessly clean, the beds wonderfully comfortable, and the breakfast outstanding — freshly prepared with local products and served with love. The property has several beautiful buildings where guests can stay, all decorated with a real eye for detail and in harmony with the natural surroundings. After the floods, the river found a new course, creating a beautiful new sandbank where Vera has placed a table, chairs and twinkling lights — the perfect spot for a drink or dinner as evening falls.
There is something here for everyone. Nature lovers will be in heaven. Those seeking rest will find it at the pool, jacuzzi and lounge area. The adventurous can canoe, hike, cycle or walk. The property is also close to the beautiful Barragem do Caia reservoir. And the wider area offers historic cities like Elvas, Campo Maior and Badajoz, plus all the wonderful food and wine the Alentejo is famous for.
By choosing to stay here, you are not just treating yourself to something truly special — you are supporting two people who poured their hearts and souls into this place. We hope to return. Highly recommended — without reservation.

Very relaxing environment and comfortable accommodation, kids loved the swimming pool !
The keys were easy to collect, the location is peaceful and well looked after, amenities are great - the pool was clean, hammocks nice to lie on, BBQ by each house. The jacuzzi didn't work, which was a bummer, but the reason was also quickly explained to us. The bathtub in our house was amazing!
The signs on the road to the location are confusing - an arrow pointing right on a sign was supposed to mean "drive straight"... We listened to the direction of the arrow and ended up driving around an olives farm...
Also, there was a sandwich smear that was served on both breakfasts that caused one of us to food poisoning (the only person who ate it...), but we're putting it down to just an unlucky coincidence.

Really enjoyed our stay here, highly recommended
Lovely place, clean, great location very tranquil. Really enjoyed the swimming pool and beautifully designed relaxing area around the pool. Vera was so helpful and friendly, D. Manuela prepared a delicious breakfast. Great place for families and pets
Da simpatia da D Vera, que nos deixou como tivéssemos em casa, pequeno almoço tipico da zona com produtos excelentes, o local é mesmo muito tranquilo descanso total.

O espaço, a limpeza, a amabilidade da Dona Vera, o facto de podermos levar a nossa cadelinha. Fomos super bem recebidas e muito bem tratadas, todo o alojamento em si super bem cuidado e a Dona Vera sempre com grande disponibilidade para connosco. Foi uma experiência incrível e sem dúvida para repetir.
Nada a apontar!

Alojamento excelente, vários serviços disponíveis. A D. Vera foi muito atenciosa e disponível para qualquer questão. Bom pequeno almoço. Conforme falado com D. Vera e apesar de na descrição da Casa do Moleiro indicar que a ´Unidade inteira localizada no piso térreo´, esta casa não o é. Fizemos viagem com amigos com mobilidade condicionada e as escadas de acesso aos quartos são difíceis de utilização. Tudo o resto foi excelente

Da piscina.
A limpeza , teias de aranha pela casa toda, e não eram teias de 1 ou 2 dias, estava lixo num dos quartos. Muito pó nas decorações.
