Excellent stay! Staff was very helpful and kind, starting with check in, but also at breakfast, or any request you had. Bed was very comfortable, bathroom was very spacious and with daylight. Breakfast was great (cake and eggs were amazing).

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!

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 👍

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.

We had a wonderful stay in this special property in the middle of a vineyard and olive orchard. We got to see the harvesting of the grapes with the vintner who was lovely. I also have to say the daily breakfast was delicious with fresh pastries and bread every morning. It's little outside of Evora but the tranquility was its own reward. Loved it!!

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.

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.

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!

Casa Do Governador: A little gem

Casa do Governador is a most pleasant small (7 rooms) agro-tourism hotel located in the countryside of the Alentejo Province. Manual and his staff are helpful and friendly. The surrounding landscape is gorgeous, especially the pool area and the various outside lounges near the main house. Having a car is a must to stay. The town of Evora is at a 12 to 15 minutes drive. It’s a midsize town full of history. Worth visiting with a guide.

Don't know where to start to. Tranquility of property, amazing friendliness and attentiveness from the staff, delicious and very rich breakfast, extremely clean rooms with TV, AC, views of valley, spacious bathroom with wonderful shower, exceptional quality linens, nice and cozy outdoor area, pleasant pool with plenty of lounge chairs and nice shady area with sofas... 10 minutes to the center of the town. Name it. Best stay for our family of 4 with teenage kids in years

6/10 Okay

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean, and in good condition. But the breakfast situation was very poor. There were dirty cups set on the table, some small cups for jams were dirty, like unwashed, and there were ants running on the bread basket. The fruits that was served were not fresh and even the cheeses. I understand it was a country house, but it was poorly managed. Maybe they are short staff.
