As a world traveller, I love to share with fellow travellers photos of my adventures. But in this instance, I am compelled to also share my hotel stay at Quinta Jardins do Lago, which was exemplary. The accommodations were lovely: sumptuous interior design replete with tastefully appointed furniture and artwork, overlooking beautiful gardens; all rooms had balconies to enjoy this spectacular view. And the comfort of the kingsize bed was divine. Even my three year old granddaughter slept like a log in the crib they provided! You're surrounded by elegant botanic gardens, varied, lush and aesthetically designed, with identifiers of most plants. The gardens are also home to a sixty-six year old tortoise named Colombo, from the Galapagos Islands, who brought endless fun and wonder to everyone. The dining experience added another superb dimension to the enjoyment of this fabulous hotel, from the delicious breakfast, buffet and "to order," to the sumptuous dinners, prepared by talented chefs. Not only is all the bread baked on premises, including morning croissants and multi-cereal rolls, but even the ice-cream is artisanally crafted at the hotel. The menu was tastefully varied, complemented with an intriguing wine list. And finally, the staff couldn't have been more welcoming: so friendly, helpful, and engaging. I heartfully thank you for making my stay at your beautiful hotel so comfortable, enjoyable, exceptional and memorable.
