Excellent stay

The communication with the owner from the time we booked until check-out was excellent. The service provided was top-notch. The location is excellent, and the place is absolutely gorgeous, offering endless views of the mountains. I will definitely recommend it to anyone who would like to experience rural Portugal. We will be back for sure.

My stay at Anissó

Unique place in a village! Very quiet and peaceful setting with a stunning view of a valley. Dona Cila was particularly helpful and pleasant! The access to the place was a bit challenging. Other than that we enjoyed it very much.

You decided to follow the GPS instead of the indications I provided, which warn visitors not to enter narrow streets. Even so, some guests seem to prefer getting stuck on the way, instead of following the indications. This behaviour always puzzles me

O lugar é Lugar a Paisagem de tirar o fôlego, mas para chegar é bem complicado, estreito e fica no top da montanha, ideal para casais, pessoas de idade com dificuldade de mobilidade não recomendo. Mas para casais apaixonados é uma aventura é tanto.

Estadia confortável, num sítio completamente calmo.

Propriedade aconchegante e acolhedor, ainda que os quartos são pequenos. O terraço é partilhado. Só tem uma casa de banho, não duas como aparece no anuncio online.

Excelent ! We strongly recommend. Recomendamos com certeza !

Owner and his assistant Cila were always available and very attentive. Property has just been remodeled. The days we spent there were particularly hot days. We suggested owner to provide a couple of fans to what owner was promptly responsive. This property is located on a cozy small country village where one listens to the church bells and can collect fresh drinking water at a nearby spring. Yet it is not far away from the town of Vieria do Minho where one has access to restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies, etc.
