The mountain village sits right in the heart of Serra da Estrela, harmoniously nestled within the urban setting of Penhas da Saúde, at an altitude of 1500 metres.

It consists of the Serra da Estrela Hotel and the Mountain Chalets,1 0 minutes away from the Vodafone Ski Resort. And slightly below the village, overlooking Cova da Beira, sits the typical Estalagem Varanda dos Carqueijais.

The Vodafone Ski Resort is located at Torre, Seia County, right in the centre of the nature reserve, at an altitude of 2000 metres. Covered in a mantle of snow from December to April, thanks to an innovative artificial snow-producing process, the ski resort houses the support infrastructures for the practice of winter sports and provides sophisticated facilities such as latest-generation mechanical lifts and a modern pass identification system for the lifts. The Vodafone Ski Resort is the top destination in Portugal for lovers of winter sports, entertainment, and strong emotions.

I had originally planned to visit Portugal in November and had booked the pousada in Mantiegas. I was subsequently notified by the booking agent that the pousada would be closed for rennovations and ended up booking the Serra da Estrella, not realizing that it was 16k from Mantiegas. When my trip was postponed to June, I decided to stick with this hotel since it was 49E, well under half the cost of the pousada. The hotel is located in a very scenic area and has chalets for rent in addition to hotel rooms. The hotel rooms are typical motel style rooms, but adequate and clean. The dining room has pleasant "ski-style: decoration and a nice view. It was empty when we were there-I bet there were less than 10 guests total. Dining is very limited-basically the hotel or one other restaurant which was closed when we were there. Since the chalets were not being used, we sat on the deck of one with a great view of a nearby mountain ridge and sipped wine in the evening. If you plan to stay in the mountains, this is a good choice, but be aware there are very limited activities.
