Super quiet and large room. Comfy pillows and the bed was nice and large. Smart HD TV enables you to pair your iPad with your own streaming platforms, which is a plus. Wi-fi is good throughout the property and facilities. The swimming pool is pleasant, there is enough space for you to relax. The contemplation pools are very original. The whole ambiance is great. The restaurant is good to have a quiet and tasty dinner, so you don't have to leave the property.

The breakfast is OK, but the staff seems a bit overwhelmed with work when you have to ask for coffee or any other warm drink. The breakfast room is large (it's the same as the restaurant), but the way the buffet is distributed could be wider.

Inside main areas (reception, restaurant) and pool area were very well decorated. Breakfast was very good. Staff was very nice.

Pool service is bad - food comes only in plates (no tray, no cutlery, and food presentation is not good when requested at the pool). Pool chairs have spider webs and pool area bathroom does not match the rest of the hotel (forgotten area). Room decor was ok, but room bathroom doesn’t match. Renovation should have been done all over the hotel, not only on main areas. Bathroom was too old comparing with the rest of the room/hotel.

They manage really well the different types of guests (children/no children). The adult pools are super quiet (even though some guests do not respect the adults only policy). Rooms are very spacious and have many amenities, which is a really nice touch.

Although some points of the service are 5 star quality, you then have points that don’t make much sense, such as having to wait 10min to get a coffee during the breakfast. Restaurant is not amazing - but the pizzas are really good and the best value for money.

The spaces, the comfortable location 20m out of Évora makes it perfect for resting and having a break. Breakfast is very good and a la carte menu also.

Air conditioner of the room is not intuitive to manage and is too cold for us with a small baby so we had to turn on and off. The bathrooms need renovation, as overall they are very warned. The table next to the TV is a good piece of decoration but they should consider on using a material to fill the gaps.

Location - pure Alentejo! Peaceful, quiet, relaxing! Design throughout very well considered. unbelievably comfortable and beautiful spa, pool areas, & organic garden. So fresh, such clean linens, rooms, bath etc Fantastic bonus pillow choice service. Very thigh full bowl of fruit and little handwritten note of welcome ( nice touch) an even better touch was the ice cold scented hand-towel 👌🏻 Food is top notch in quality, quantity ( generous) and great variety … ( whether dinner or breakfast) Freshest! Bikes available - great for sunset rides.

Bed could be less hard and more padded.

Great set up, close to a small dam, with all the facilities including spa, swimming pool, activities for all ages and even a kid’s area… and of course, with an exceptional restaurant! Great buffet breakfast and a unusual option to have a all-day-breakfast (a selection of the buffet) which works out perfect if you’d like to sleep in. I have already recommended this hotel to friends

Perhaps lacking some features in the corridor such as decorations / art to match the room’s and main hallway environment. Very pricey wine list.

As far as I am concerned, Octant Evora is all about sustainability, responsibility, inclusion, diversity, Nature and respect towards animals. It’s a sophisticated and innovative concept that promotes such a pleasant stay. The food from Restaurante À Terra is Portugal at its best, such rich and organic flavors!! Tastes like real food :) Expect to feel grounded and connected to Nature. If you’re up to, take time to visit the farm animals and appreciate the amazing smell of fresh air in the morning. People ( staff and guests! ) were so kind towards my dog, even though she is so shy, everyone was so kind and respectful! She was so happy during our stay. At the end, she felt like she owned the place as she was handled like a queen! Great ( I think the best!) option for people who like to take their pets on their summer adventures. the last but not the least, the staff!!!! Always always available, easy going, accessible!

Absolutely everything about this place was stellar! I would highly recommend for a get away especially during a sightseeing vacation. MUCH better choice than staying in the city of Evora. It’s relaxing, the facility is beautiful and tranquil. It has everything needed for relaxation, including great massages, sauna, pool, dining. A welcome break from the hub-bub of city life and sightseeing. Staff is friendly and truly determined to create a wonderful experience, not just stay. Wish we had booked two or three nights back-back. It would still have been easy to take day trips to sites from here if sightseeing was a priority. The room was spacious and luxurious feeling. Outdoor room space provided some privacy and was very inviting. The food and wine (and gin) selection was super. Their version of crème brûlée was so beautiful w flowers and fruit and much to our delight, soup bowl sized! Breakfast was fabulous! Take time to enjoy the wonderful, fresh selection, which included part of a honey comb for fresh honey! We would come back to Portugal just to stay here!

We truly luved everything! Be aware this is a family centric place and therefore more children here than anywhere else we stayed. Good news, the place is designed so that adults can be away from kid commotion and noise….except meals. To compensate, just time them for when you imagine kids would be sleeping, or still asleep. As an observation I would say children in PT are better behaved and parents much more attentive than in the USA.

We have stayed here on a number of occasions and knew what to expect. The staff are really helpful and friendly and the food is excellent.

Unfortunately there was an activation of the fire alarm in the early hours of the morning which did interrupt our nights sleep. However, the staff worked quickly to neutralise the activation and we must make reference to one of the management team (Vera) who herself was trying to sort things out.

The setting is lovely and quiet in the countryside. We had a villa and the view over the rolling hills was awesome. You can take a 15 minutes walk on the property grounds to the river nearby and it is beautiful. Pretty far to drive to Evora for dinner though, 15 minutes. There was dinner available at the hotel but we did not opt for it. The villa was very beautifully decorated and had all amenities. We did not use the pool since it was very cold outside.

The heating system broke on the last day and even though they attempted to fix it they were unable to. We had to light the fireplace :) I would have appreciated a more varied breakfast. There was fruit, cold cuts, some pastry, yoghurt, 2 or 3 warm dishes. It was very difficult to order an omellette or fried eggs, it was clear they were not expecting such a request. No salads, no traditional food except for the pasteis de nata, no fish. Be aware that the property is very popular with families so expect lot of children at breakfast.
