Casà Fernanda is (justifiably) well regarded, but I sense that it’s becoming a ‘must do’ for an optimised highlights of a Camino.
Casa Fernanda is great but I can see how it isn’t everyone style. I personally would have loved it under normal circumstances but I was recovering from food poisoning in Porto and really exhausted after walking in downpour to Fernandas. I am glad I went though. But if anyone is seeking a great communal meal on the Portuguese that is a little more chill, I recommend Ninho/Pilgrims Nest in Rubaies. It’s only for people staying at the albergue, so make a reservation a day or two in advance. Not having to walk down the road to the only restaurant is quite a treat after hiking a mountain that day.Exactly. Like the " Variante Spiritual ". Casa Fernanda is not my style but luckily others find it welcoming and warm.
The Variante Espiritual is less traveled than the Central Way. So to me it is more quiet, especially the Agua y Piedras path out of Armenteira. And the monasteries in Poio and Armenteira are so nice to stop for the meditative reflection that many try to experience on camino. Not sure how it’s a “must do” since hardly any do it. The thermal waters at Caldas de Reis seems more to fit that bill. It’s why I avoid it. Too many people.Exactly. Like the " Variante Spiritual ". Casa Fernanda is not my style but luckily others find it welcoming and warm.
Thanks for the number I was able to send Fernanda a text message today and was able to make a booking for May, must say she responded quickly.I just made a reservation by sending a text message (not WhatsApp)
