    The place is beautiful and silent. At night, the light pollution is low enough that you can actually see the stars. The water in the lake was wonderful throughout my stay, certainly warmer than Portuguese beaches. The houses are not as stuffy...

    Location was excellent, with a great view of Santa Clara's reservoir. Great facilities for some fun times in the water. Closed front patio was a must to be able to travel with a dog.

    Beautiful nature, stunning views, and very friendly dogs. We could swim, jog, and savor the natural surroundings. The location isn’t far from the closest village, and we even formed some friendships there. It’s a perfect place to relax.

Located in the lower Alentejo, in the district of Beja. It lies on the edge of the Santa Clara Dam, where nature reveals all its splendor and harmony. The property with about 10 hectares, is surrounded by water in about 2/3 of its length, making it an ideal place for water and land sports. A stay at the Cerro Poio Red provides you with moments of tranquility and contact with nature, with activities at your disposal.
I and Maria do Céu, we have as a principle to provide our guests moments of quiet without set times.
Our neighborhood has 3 houses, mine, and 2 for customers, also has a common area where you can have a barbecue, and eat a meal outdoors. For fishing enthusiasts can fish, walk or choose to rent a boat (available in the area on request) to have a day of fishing, unforgettable.
