Imani Country House

This was a lovely place to get away for the weekend, it was just a shame it was rainy so we didn't get to enjoy the sun/pools which looked great. The staff were very friendly and helpful with all our questions, and gave good suggestions. The room was lovely, with a huge comfy bed and great amenities. With the few hours of sun one after we took a bottle of wine and sat in the grounds, which was delightful. Dinner was also very good. We'd love to come back in warmer weather! Only two points I'd note is that breakfast starts at 9.30, so if you need to eat and get off to do activities make sure to arrange to eat earlier and the road up to the hotel is dirt, and as we'd come after some heavy rains, it was not in the best shape. Something to be aware of if you are renting a car.

Secluded, artsy, historic, great breakfast. Definitely a place to relax. I heard that our room will be remodeled and the only thing i would change is the sunken tub. For some people it could be hard to get in and out of.

Beautiful well kept property. Only 7 rooms so very private. Breakfast and dinner were both excellent! Some of the staff were new and tried hard but weren't able to answer some questions about the property. Perhaps because we stayed over the weekend but we never met the owners/manager/chef as we have with other similar size hotels.

We stayed at the Imani Country House for 2 nights and it was one of the best places we've ever stayed. We did get a bit worried as we drove out of Evora into the countryside and wondered where we would be staying. However, we rounded the corner and came to the gate of the inn and we knew that this would be something special. The Country House is set about 15 minutes out of Evora and is a lovely respite from the city. The Country House sits on many private acres and is completely secluded and gorgeous. The pool itself is worthy of a stay. Other reviewers mentioned that they thought the pool was cold but we thought it was a perfect temperature for a late summer afternoon. Our room was magnificent--beautifully decorated and overlooking the pool and olive gardens. You can take long walks around the property and spend time petting the resident donkey, who is very sweet. The restaurant serves incredible meals and I would agree that the food we had there was some of the best we had in Portugal. Vera is a lovely manager and made sure we had everything we needed--she even fixed us a lovely lunch when we showed up mid-afternoon. There is a wonderful outdoor bar/seating area that is gorgeous. It was a 30 minute walk to the monoliths and well worth the walk. We didn't have a car during our stay but also walked into the local village, Guadalupe, and enjoyed some pastries. Overall, this is an outstanding place to stay in Portugal and we will be back next year!

This place is so good and the environment are very friendly I request any one to book this hostel, I also enjoyed the village life with the people and their hospitality. I managed to day trip walk at Pangani river which nearby this hostel

The Imani Country House is a perfectly relaxing and magical getaway spot. The room was large and well appointed and had everything we could need. The bed was super comfortable. The grounds are natural and beautiful with a lovely swimming pool, fruit trees as far as the eye can see and plenty of space for walking. We walked to the Cromeleque dos almendres. It's a bit of a roundtrip walk, but well worth it. If you want you can drive. Breakfast was included and delicious and abundant. We chose to have dinner both nights while there and the food was some of the best we had in Portugal. Service is top notch! Vera and her colleagues go out of their way to accommodate. We had a couples massage under the trees by the wading pool. This was also a highlight. The sounds and smells of nature along with the rustling leaves of the trees overhead added to the perfect relaxing experience. If you are looking for a break from the touristy areas while in Portugal, this is your place.

the place is very calm and yet very near Evora. the pool is great and the food too: breakfast, snacks and dinner. the staff is very attentive and kind, Vera and Kevin. The room is big and comfortable. the fact that there is only 7 rooms. we really enjoyed our stay! There are some details in the bathroom that can be improved on the shower but nothing that affects the global good feeling. The drinks and coffee have high prices for the region.

Loved our family trip to Imani - scenic vistas, attentive staff, spacious but cozy rooms, peaceful pools and delicious fresh food from the restaurant - perfect for a mini break or longer relaxing stay. Kids loved exploring the grounds and felt very safe,

Lovely rural boutique hotel. Just 7 large rooms - ours had a fireplace that we used and enjoyed - with a very good restaurant. The staff did a great job with our English only limitation. There is a Neolithic circle nearby that one can walk to
