Complaints can be submitted via email to [email protected] or by phone at 919373733. We aim to acknowledge all complaints within 48 hours and provide a full response within 10 business days. For urgent matters during your stay, please contact our reception immediately. An official complaints book (Livro de Reclamações) is available at the establishment and online at www.livroreclamacoes.pt as required by Portuguese law (Decreto-Lei n.º 156/2005). If you are not satisfied with our response, you may escalate your complaint to the relevant consumer mediation service or ASAE (Autoridade de Segurança Alimentar e Económica) as detailed below.
  • Legal Guarantees: In accordance with the Lei de Defesa do Consumidor and Portuguese consumer protection laws, we guarantee that our accommodation services will conform to the description provided at the time of booking. Should any services fail to meet these standards, guests are entitled to request remedies including repair, replacement, price reduction, or refund as appropriate. Hidden defects in our facilities or services that affect your stay are covered under statutory warranty provisions. Under Portuguese law, the general limitation period for contractual claims is twenty (20) years from the date the obligation becomes enforceable (Art. 309 Código Civil Português), with a shorter ordinary limitation period of five (5) years for certain obligations (Art. 310).
