I absolutely adored my stay at the Octant Lousa. I had a great time exploring the villages and the mountains. I felt pampered the moment I stepped into the hotel and the entire staff was so friendly and wonderful. I can't wait to come back and relax here again. I have told everyone who will listen how much I enjoyed my stay!

Mountain bike with spa experience

Nice stay during a mountain bike trip for a prime mountain experience. Quiet village. Beautiful hotel. Staff were top notch…the Portuguese aren’t known for customer service…these folks are fantastic! The room faced onto a street level view which wasn’t great; although surprisingly quiet. The spa was wonderful. We are huge fans of water therapy, moving from the sauna to cold plunge to warming tubs, etc. They delivered! And the food!! Very good. Breakfast was excellent with stunning views of the mountains. Highly recommend this palace!

The staff went out of their way to make our stay amazing - our only regret was that we couldn’t stay another night! The restaurant served some of the best food we have ever eaten. The steak that my wife got was SO good that she asked to speak to the chef, just to tell him it was the best steak she had EVER had in her life! We NEVER do that!
