Popular Cela 4-star Hotels

Small hotel in the countryside but only about 7 miles from Nazare the main resort nearby. Location is ideal if you like to dip into a resort, but you like peace and quiet in the evening. The hotel has beautiful views across the countryside to the sea. Stunning sunsets. The hotel has an infinity pool, spa and gym. The rooms are roomy enough ( there were 3 of us). Beds comfortable. Air con free and very good. Each room has a balcony area (it is a shared balcony that runs the length of the hotel) Ample free parking at the hotel. We stayed here for 12 nights (more than the average stay at this type of hotel) We paid for half board (dinner, bed and breakfast). We could choose what ever we wanted off the al a carte menu. A large bottle of water was included and one drink each eg soft drink or beer or glass of wine included with meal price. We got to know the staff in the restaurant who could not be friendlier. We also got to know the owners. They arranged with the chef different meals for us as they were concerned that we would get bored with the menu as we were there so long. The meals were delicious. Obviously they had no obligation to do that for us. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. They researched a few things for us. Overall the staff were friendly and could not do more for us. If you want somewhere to be away from it all and feel treated, this is the place. Plenty to explore in the area eg history, museums, historical towns. But you can be back on the tourist trail in a few miles if that’s what you want. The local small town Alcobaca has plenty of history, a huge monastery, local cafes. Yet also the usual supermarkets on the outskirts.
