It was a fantastic vacation in a nice house. Excellent cleaning, fantastic communication Sandomil is a magical place. Férias fantásticas numa boa casa. A limpeza da mesma estava muito boa, a comunicação com os proprietários foi fácil muito atenciosos. Sandomil é um paraíso que vale a pena visitar para relaxar.
Casa pitoresca, acolhedora e confortável. A localização e o terraço com vista rio foram para nós o ex-libris da nossa experiência. Apesar de não nos conhecermos pessoalmente, os anfitriões foram muito acessíveis e simpáticos. Éramos 4 adultos e 1 criança, e por isso sentimos falta de uma mesa um pouco maior para as refeições. O que para umas férias de curtas de 4 dias e um terraço acolhedor em noites quentes, não foi um problema. Uma experiência a repetir facilmente.
Estadia muito agradável, a casa não podia estar com localização melhor. Nem 1 minuto se perdia a chegar a praia. O terraço improvisado com vistas para o rio, acho que era o que mais se destacava.
Ein magisches Plätzchen und mit viel Liebe im Detail. Für 2 Personen perfekt zum entspannen! Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in Sandomil! Danke
The house of Giuseppe and Sunitha is a lovely nest in between civilization and the might and beauty of Serra da Estrela. Here you can hide from a busy city life, feel the nature and relax. Enjoy the fluvial beach near the house and take sun baths on the terrace during the day. At night, the river helps you to cool down. Incredibly fast internet helps you stay in touch with the outer world in case of need. There are two grocery stores within 50 m from the house that will likely cover all of your needs for a few days. If you stay for longer, you may want to visit bigger supermarkets in Oliveira do Hospital (8-10 km away). The property doesn’t have a washing machine and A/C, which wasn’t a problem for my stay for a whole month. Sunitha and Giuseppe are eminently kind and responsive! They gave me assistance with everything I asked about. Both check in and check out were smooth and flawless. This place is highly recommended to stay at 🙏🏻
Our neighborhood is a charming and nourishing one: As you could imagine having the river Alva flowing in front of our home provides the healing power of nature. The idea that immersing yourself in forests and nature has a healing effect is far more than just folk wisdom and we welcome you to experience this right in Sandomil-River-beach-Nest, your chosen homestay. You can not only swim in the gentle crystal-clear waters but
the fluvial beach awaits with open arms for you to sunbathe and regenerate in its natural green surrounding.
The local elders will enchant you with stories and wise smiles, the local coffee shops (bars and tavernas) will quench your thirst and the local bistro will satiate your hunger (offering organic local dishes to die for). But if you feel like having a picnic by the fluvial beach (there are two, one in front of our home and the other just a 200 mt away) you can barbeque your fish, meat and vegetables in the provided areas. Otherwise you can always opt to find different types and colors of leaves, sing songs, walk around the park talking about life issues, go fishing, play a board game on the blanket.
For children you have a children's park or let them play a game of freeze tag or hide and seek. Children love to take a pedal boat out on a slow moving river (they are rented at the basin of the river) and you can bring out the child in you by joining them.
There are plenty more outdoor activities that you could do in the Serra de Estrela National Park like kayaking, rock-climbing, horse riding, skiing and hiking.
Seia and Olivera de Hospital few kilometers away offers plenty of shopping facilities, banking, public transit to and from main regions (Porto, Coimbra, Lisbon). Look at Rede Expressos.
If you up to a bit of hippie vibes, Sandomil is home to a small but thriving alternative community of Portuguese and foreigners that host local markets, music and alternative events. And for those who want to dance all night and day look for nearby (2km away) international music festivals such as Freedom Festival and Insomnia Electronic Music Festival.
For other info please contact us. Sunitha and Vasco (Giuseppe)
Buses and taxis run regularly between Sandomil and the two main towns of Seia and Olivera de hospital.
From Olivera de Hospital or Seia, there are regular buses from/to Lisbon, Porto, Coimbra and other destinations. Look at Rese Expressos.
There are a few train stations a few kilometers away like the one on Carregal Do Sal (Train from Porto and Lisbon) with trains to Spain and other major cities in Portugal (Like Coimbra).
3 hours by car from Lisbon, 2 hours from Porto, less than one hour from Coimbra.
If you are on foot you could organize with the Hosts for Local sightseeing in Serra Da Estrela for a small fee, gas and food.
Parking: Plenty all around for free
