Our take
Imani Country House sits in the countryside just outside Évora, which is both its charm and its condition: you will want a car to reach the walled town. In return there are two outdoor pools, a spa, spacious rooms and suites set in century-old gardens, and a restaurant cooking with local produce. A 9.3 rating shows guests rate the calm highly.
- Explore the century-old gardens at different times of day to appreciate their changing beauty.
- Dine at the Improvável restaurant to savor fresh, local ingredients from the region and the farm.
- Take advantage of the spa facilities for a truly relaxing and rejuvenating experience during your stay.

Why guests love itI like Imani Country House for families who want Évora's Roman temple and cathedral by day and open countryside by night. Two outdoor pools mean children are not fighting for space on hot Alentejo afternoons, and the century-old gardens give room to wander. The restaurant cooks Portuguese dishes with local and farm-grown ingredients, so dinner can stay on site after a day in town.
