Hotel Moura Encantada (Santa Clara-a-Velha, Portugal)

Moura Encantada is a place of hidden treasure. This is a true place, a place of real Portuguese culture This is a hidden place, a place at one with the nature in which it lives and breaths. This is an extraordinary place. A world away from concrete and crowds, in the heart of Alentejo, you come upon the serene waters of Santa Clara lake. At the edge of the broad, still waters is a unique retreat, seamlessly integrated with the vibrant, natural landscape in which it finds itself and the centuries-old Portuguese culture that inspires it. It lies on the margins of Santa Clara reservoir, on the sunrise side of the Alentejo, 230 km south of Lisbon. Alentejo offers a laid-back pace of life, and a more tranquil atmosphere than neighbouring Algarve.
