So, the people are very friendly. They have restored the ‘’rondette’’ buildings and renovated so i was hopeful about my midweek stay here. Well...first off, when is Portugal going to realize and accomodate the many North Europeans like me who do not fit into a tiny queen size bed! Even lying diagonally i did not fit, which pretty much spoils everything. The bed was also very hard! And covered with one of those nylon anti wetting covers so it was stiffling. I am 1.93 so not extremely tall. The shower was nice, the peace and quiet was nice, but if you cannot sleep whats the point. You are allowed to use the pool near reception but it was covered by a thick layer of fallen pine needles so that was not very charming. Once again, lovely sweet people, charming location but....

Centre olistique qui se veut aussi spirituel...et ne veut pas d’enfants?

A ce jour je me rends compte que dans un lieu où les enfants ne sont pas les bienvenus l’amour ne peut pas circuler. On a beau en parler, organiser des stages...si le coeur est froid glacé ça ne servira à rien.1 seul enfant, 3 ans, adorable, comment pretendre de le clouer á une chaise même après le repas? J’étais cliente depuis 2 ans, j’y ai amené du monde plusieurs fois, mais lá je n’y mettrai plus les pieds. Honteux !

We thank you for your feedback and understand what you are saying; sorry to hear you felt not welcome with your 3 year old, who I have no doubt is adorable. Quinta da Calma is not ideally equipped for kids and has no children centered free time occupation. On the contrary we are a holistic center focused on personal development which is more adult'oriented with activities such as meditation, yoga, tai-chi, many of which have a silence requirement. Our recommendation for adults only is not directed against children but rather having their well-being in mind based on the activities conducted at Quinta da Calma

Putting things into Perspective

I've just returned a few days ago and already miss the raw beauty of the natural landscape of Quinta Da Calma. I've been practising my yoga and tai chi moves and have gained a lot of enjoyment and refreshment from them and am now looking for a yoga class to join! Thank you Quinta Da Calma for making my stay exactly what I needed to rejuvenate me and to put things into their correct perspective !

Geweldig!

Ik ben helemaal tot rust gekomen en ontstresst na een bezoek aan het landgoed. Het voelt als een warm bad. Het was fijn om met andere alleenreizenden yoga en thai chi lessen te volgen en om gezamenlijk te eten. Verder ook voldoende tijd gehad om een boek te lezen en om te wandelen. Ik zal zeker nog eens terug gaan!

Dankjewel voor je feedback En de quinta heeft juist dat voor ogen: Tai chi en yoga, stress management workshop in combinatie met de rust op het landgoed, zelf reflectie, vegatarische keuken en heerlijk wandelen in een prachtige omgeving. We hopen je gauw terug te zien.
