A quaint spot

Small apartment in an old town. You feel like you have stepped back in time! Perfect for exploring the Douro valley and tasting some wine. The host set us up for wine tasting. Perfect.

Authentic Douro Experience

What a wonderful escape after spending a few days in Porto. The road to this remote location is an adventure, if you are up for it! Once you arrive, the view is breathtaking and the authentic countryside quinta experience begins. We enjoyed all the outdoor spaces and gardens, and moved up to the pool area to lengthen sunset watching. The property is resort-like in its details and each day my appreciation for all these features grew. The overall experience was restorative.The rental is clean and comfortable. The charming kitchen is small but had all essentials although we didn't cook much! The bathroom is updated and spacious. The bedroom is in the loft and there was great storage for our luggage. Wifi worked flawlessly. This is a great location to explore the Douro region. We did daily road trips to towns like Pinhao, Peso da Regua, and Lamego. Getting lost in the vineyards was a wonderful experience. And don't forget tastings at other quintas: port, wine and olive oil.Thank you to Francesco for hosting and spoiling us. I won't give away all the details, but we loved the amazing local bread from Favaios every morning! (Visit the Bread and Wine Museum there to better appreciate these local delicacies.) His suggestions for dining and things to do were appreciated and helpful. His love for this quinta is now shared. This is a special place!

Fabulous apartment

This wonderful apartment is extremely large with separate living/dining room, kitchen, and two good sized bedrooms, each with their own washroom. The balcony overlooking the river was a lovely place to enjoy a glass of wine. Communication was clear and responsive. We were greeted with a charcuterie board, chilled wine, and bread delivered daily for breakfast. A wonderful weekend getaway!

Epic stay

Words can’t describe how awesome this property is. Fantastic house with an unbelievable view. Pool looking out over the river valley - breath taking. And the owner Eurico was just awesome - great tour of property when arrived and nice touch with the welcoming port experience. This is the best place to be in Douro. Central to all the wineries.

Pinhao Home

This home is so well taken care of. We woke up to the sound of birds every morning and with incredible views of the vineyards. We were allowed to pick oranges and lemons from the property's trees. Plenty of room for 8 people and a 12 minute walk into town. The place was exceptionally clean and Francisco was always quick to respond to any questions. Francisco provided us with restaurant and tour suggestions before we arrived. We felt very taken care of and felt at home. This is the place to stay in Pinhao.

Fabulous View

The house was very comfortable for our group of 7. The views were amazing and the outdoors was beautiful. We enjoyed the dinner and wine tour. The drive in was interesting - get your groceries ahead of time! We loved it!

Small town

Loved the place, Adriana is the best host. Well equipped, we cooked all our meals (stayed 2days). Only warning, it is a long way to the nearest store (20 min drive) so take everything with you. Loved our time there, breathtaking views and absolute calm.
