Fodor's Expert Review Quinta de Santo António
Estrada da Barbacena, Elvas, Portalegre, 7350-903, Portugal
About 8 km (5 miles) outside Elvas, this palm-shaded estate makes for a restful overnight stop near the Portugal–Spain border. The property covers more than 30 acres, with a sprawling main building, 18th-century chapel, and outdoor swimming pool. There's a good restaurant serving traditional Alentejan fare, and an even better bar with huge cozy fireplace. The staff can help you book horseback riding, hiking, or bicycle excursions.
PROS
- indoor games room and outdoor playground for kids
- friendly, multilingual staff
- sparkling swimming pool
CONS
- far from the historic sights
- you'll need a car to get here
- some facilities are a bit dated
