Hotel Casa Palmela - Small Luxury Hotels of The World, Hotel & Villas

The service was outstanding in every aspect. The staff made you feel at home and very relaxed in this beautiful, intimate property. One member of staff that really stood out was Joao in the restaurant, impeccable and exceptional interpersonal skills. Also, the food is delicious and a very good wine selection is available. A must is a massage from either Hannah, both highly skilled and delightful. The house dog, Wisdom, is the master of all as most Dachshunds are.

We, a family of 3 and a dog, spent 4 worderful days at Hotel Casa Palmela. This wonderful property is set amongst picturesque lanscapes and vines near Setubal. The hotel itself is very beautiful and very well maintained. It has 2 swimming pools, one is more like for quiet rest of adults and the other one is more for splashing with kinds and it is bigger. We surely used the bigger one more. We also liked our room with a little terrace very much, the room had a very cosy and home feeling. The breakfast was good, filling and it was good variety for us. A few words should be said about hotel restaurant for lunches and dinners: the food is really awesome. very tasty, prepared by chef with the use of light hints of African notes. We enjoyed it very much and had all our dinners in the hotel. The sunset view from the terrace of the restaurant is also gorgeous, second to none!

Location is amazing and extremely peaceful and quiet. Perfect to relax.

Breakfast was really good with fresh quality food and a decent variety. Service was excellent. We had a great dinner at the restaurant, the for was delicious and the service outstanding. The hotel is very well located, in the countryside with a big forest nearby, but close enough to the city of Setubal to where you can drive in 8 minutes.

We really enjoyed our stay thanks to the fine accommodations and attentive staff! We especially appreciated the food, fine wines and room attendants that routinely made sure that our room was clean and stocked! Joao Sousa made sure that our dinners and wine were perfectly paired and presented! We cannot thank Joao enough for his graciousness! He commands the dining room like none other I’ve seen anywhere in the world! Between the property itself and staff, our visit to Casa Palmela was an experience that we shall always remember! We look forward to returning soon!
