Beautiful place! When we first arrived I was in love. However the administration did not communicate well with the customer so we did not know requirements of our stay so things did not work out well. Did not really feel welcome from the admin although housekeeping was most considerate. The are is beautiful but you do need a vehicle. Beautiful beaches in Lagos and Lux!

Lovely, relaxing and quiet retreat.
Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Came to meet us when we arrived late and lost! Beautiful location, if not a little isolated. Very friendly atmosphere. You feel as though you are receiving personal treatment. For an escape, we would recommend it highly.

Excellent hotel - a bit isolated
We had an excellent stay in a beautiful hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. The room was excellent. and right beside a fantastic pool. I would go back but i would hire a car. although the bus stop to Lagos is near by its a very dark walk.

Montinho - comfort and service
An excellent hotel with friendly staff and superb facilities. Although I stayed at a quiet time there was still attentive staff on hand to help. ie arrived late evening - they opened the bar for me, wanted laundry - next day shirts come back clean and ironed. Will be back! Only minor niggle was wifi service did not reach my room.

There are problems
The major problem whilst we were there was the consistently fluctuating power supply. This applied to the majority of the rooms in the hotel. Lights would frequently grow dim then brighten and there were many power cuts. Similarly heating the room using the air conditioner became difficult. This made relaxation impossible. When we arrived the extractor fan in the bathroom was not working. It took 3 days to fit a replacement. This meant that any showers taken in the first few days led to the room becoming damp for lengthy periods. The hotel was about 45 minutes walk from Luz, but a significant part did not have street lighting. As we had no torch we decided not to have an evening drink in the local bars. I certainly wouldn't risk driving the car under the influence. I'm sure that if the holiday had been later in the year the faults described would have seemed less important, The days would have been lighter and warmer. The hotel itself could be described as a 'gem' but only if it sorts out its electricity supply!

Outstanding Hotel
From the grounds, to the hotel rooms to the staff to the food everything was really exceptional. This really is a neat place to stay with very clean and large rooms. The staff onsite was extremely friendly and outgoing. Highly recommend this place. A little hard to find but worth it!

Brilliant little apartment complex with friendly and helpful staff! Great value for the price.
The staff were very helpful and friendly. The setting is gorgeous - pool view one side and mountains the other. The apartment was small but equipped well (although no oven) but it felt light and airy and was perfect for 2 people. Would suggest this complex if you like the peace and quiet but want to be a short drive/taxi ride to Luz or Lagos.

Relaxation lovely sunsets and friendly staff
The hotel is slightly outside Praia da Luz so expect a 2km walk to the village if on foot; This didn't put me off as the hotel had all the better views of the sunset, hills and trees for being outside main tourist area and scooters were easy to rent. The rooms were cleaned each day, the staff always had a smile and were helpful booking massages, boat trips for us. The on site food is reasonable and good and the pool was clean and surrounded by well kept shrubbery, trees We went as a couple and thought it was a lovely setting, but there were quite a few happy splashing families poolside. If you are entirely on foot and hate walking maybe get something closer but I'd definitely recommend this overall.

Muy Bueno.
El Hotel es muy bueno. Sólo tengo dos observaciones: Hicimos una reserva para un taxi bien temprano en la mañana, y el señor se le olvidó. Al salir temprano en la mañana nos encontramos con todas las luces de las áreas comunes apagadas. Fue muy incomodo caminar con maletas en medio de la oscuridad.

There hasn´t been anybody for checking-in. The appart. was open. Breakfast very late, € 11,00. / People there no friendly at all. Rooms were ok. Simpel, very cold (June). It´s 8 km from Lagos, up the hill, very very windy. Pool so cold, no chance. By leaving, there was nobody there. Very strange ….. wouldn´t recommend it at all.

Séjours génial
Paisible et chaleureux. A à peine 5 minute de Lagos et des plages de Luz en voiture, 30 min à pieds. Un accueil cordial. Un petit déjeuner copieux et varié. Nous avons eu le plaisir de manger dans un petit restaurant vraiment typique, autant par les plats que par l'ambiance que met la patronne (Casa do Zé). Un séjour en couple vraiment génial. Merci encore à l’équipe du Montinho de Ouro. Muito obrigada a toda a equipa du Montinho de Ouro. Passamos uma semana excelente.

Selvtillid uden årsag
Jovist var de venlige, men da vi bad om et askebæger, forlangte de 10 euro i depositum. Morgenmad koster 10 euro pr. person, og internet skal der også betales for. Sengen var en anelse klam da værelset åbenbart havde stået uden varme i lænere tid, og varmt vand (til bad) forefindes kun om morgenen. Om aftenen var det kun lunkent. Der er fred og ro, og hotellet ligger langt fra alt. Der er ingen indkøbsmuligheder inden for fem km radius. Ej heller aktiviteter af nogen art. Medbring cykel eller bil, ellers er du lost.
