Why Choose Us

Sharing the most authentic places in Portugal with you

We are Filipa and Iva, two sisters who ♥ Portugal and believe that small is beautiful. We were born and raised in the North of Portugal and soon realized that we love to speak with new people, share our special tips of where to stay and what to do in the most authentic places of Portugal.

After launching a small and charming guesthouse - the Solar Egas Moniz - in our home town, we have brought together a selection of places like this: places full of character, delicious breakfasts and wonderfully comfortable beds. This website is the result of our passion: to reveal a collection of the best small hotels in Portugal, together with off-the-beaten track experiences, from North to South and Islands of Portugal. Iva will be the person to welcome you to Solar Egas Moniz. Filipa will help you to organize your trip to Portugal, sharing her love for Portugal with you.

More than just a collection of small hotels in Portugal, We Love Small Hotels introduces you to the homes of several Portuguese families who will welcome you and share their family history and traditions, together with a curation of authentic experiences and unique tips of Portugal.

We believe in sustainable tourism by supporting the local small companies, local guides and small family-run businesses, in each region of Portugal. Traveling can have a positive impact on the communities visited.

Additionally, planting indigenous trees and shrubs in Portugal is a decisive gesture. Every effort is important to mitigate and adapt to climate change, helping in preserving biodiversity and reducing the spread of fires. At We Love Small Hotels we have associated with ZERO organization and so when you chose to travel with us to Portugal, we will plant a tree for you. You are contributing to the restoration of two natural habitats of priority conservation: the dune zimbral and beech-medronhal forest of "Mata Nacional de Leiria". Check-out more about Zero project.
