Monte Velho Equo-Resort is a boutique hotel set in a Lusitano horse breeding farm with a rooftop swimming pool, located 4.3 mi from Arraiolos. This property merges with the surrounding rural landscape and features dressage lessons and riding tours, upon request. Each room opens out to a furnished balcony with countryside and dam views. Rooms include a Nespresso coffee machine, iPod docking station, and a multi-channel TV. The private bathroom is separated from the bedroom by a glass wall and includes a modern walk-in shower. Monte Velho can organize themed meals and picnics outdoors, as well as canoeing in the dam. Guests wishing to explore the Alentejo landscape in a horse-riding tour with a guide or set a lesson with an expert, can request it in advance. The rooftop swimming pool offers panoramic views. A few seating areas with parasols and sun loungers are spread through the gardens, where guests can enjoy the spectacular sunset.
