Casa do Governador is a beautiful, peaceful place. Our room was massive and extremely comfortable! We stayed for a week and used it as a base to explore Alentejo/Lisbon and it worked perfectly.

Coat cottage between vineyards
We stayed in Villa T1 surrounded by nature. We looked to the vineyards and country side. The house was equipped with everything required for a good meal and a good night sleep. Air conditioning was working very well. Breakfast was served in the main house and felt very cosy. Pools were okay .

Cosy and comfortable country manor
Very cosy and spacious country manor turned into a hotel. Wonderful common areas to sit around and watch TV or read a book. The cook provided breakfast and the manager on site was very friendly and knowledgeable about the property’s history.

Loved it
Loved this quiet farm just outside Évora. Very nice and comfortable place. It had olive trees, grapes, horses, sheep, dogs, historical markers on property. Accommodations were 1st class 👍

Lovely, well-maintained hotel set among orchards and various species of local trees. Sprawling patio with fragrant flowers, 2 swimming pools, delicious breakfast and spacious bathroom are just a few details which make this property special. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Of all of your venues during our ten-day visit to Portugal, Casa do Governador was our favorite location. The facility was warm and inviting, as was the staff. The food and wine selections were outstanding. Wonderful all around!

Perfect honeymoon spot
Could not have loved this place more! Beautiful property, cozy bed and room, kind welcoming staff, pool and delicious breakfast. At first we were a little worried that we should have stayed in Evora to properly enjoy the city but once we arrive at Casa do Governador I knew we had made the right call for a quiet relaxing stay! Wish we had stayed more than one night!

A relaxing stay.
We only overnighted here as part of a longer trip. The bedroom was large and tastefully decorated, although no fridge or kettle which we would have appreciated.
We took dinner with only one other couple which was disappointing as the food was excellent both for that meal and breakfast. Perhaps the hotel should push their dinner option more.

This was a really great place to stay on our visit to Évora. Easy to get to if you have a car and a nice opportunity to stay in a grand house in the countryside. We were lucky to have the whole property to ourselves (We came in December). They welcomed us with Portuguese tarts and cake and the breakfast was terrific. It was great to sit next to the fire in the evening. It even had it’s own Menhir on the property.

Very nice place to stay.
Beautiful property and hotel. Very comfortable rooms and excellent breakfast. Appreciated the warm greeting we received as well as the information about the history of the facility. Rainy weather did not allow for full enjoyment of the property. Property was not in Evora but a short drive from town. Nice to be in the country side.

All I can say is WOW! Amazing, beautiful, unique, just a sensational experience that I feel very fortunate to have experienced. Miguel was so kind and it was so much fun getting to dine with the other guests. Only disappointment was that we planned only one night. Highly recommended!

Exquisite property and lavish grounds, including vineyards, olive trees, cork trees and acres of countryside. VERY special breakfast - everything is made on premises and the baked goods are gourmet! Beautiful public rooms, outside spaces, walking paths, etc. An oasis that is totally secure and quiet! Beautifully furnished room with many thoughtful touches. Very close to town, but secluded.
