"If you like orchids, hold onto your hat, this is the place to visit. Good news, looks like it's getting the investment, works and support to bring it up to date. Last few visits a few years back it was in decline but now it's getting a new life into the place.
A fantastic selection of orchids, beauties even a non lover will admire.
Well worth a walk up the hill, or drive up.
Not far from the market in town, but transport advised."

"Serendipity led us to this magical place, and we couldn't be more grateful for the discovery.
Patricio was incredibly kind and guided us through his greenhouses, which are filled with an infinite variety of orchids and other unique plants. The time he dedicated to us was invaluable, full of explanations, historical anecdotes, and fascinating insights into the world surrounding his plants. His passion shines through every word, and his actions reflect the care he puts into the demanding daily maintenance of Quinta da Boa Vista. We feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to visit this special place and hope to return in the future. Thank you!
