「The Good: Wonderful homely place all the staff are lovely. What an amazing location high above the Duoro River below. Great wine ( goes without saying !!) Although a little isolated the availability of the evening snack menu was great and a fitting and substantial addition to the wine.
Pinhao is about 25 minute drive away, but there are many restaurants there.
The Bad: Parking is available but yes it’s very narrow and sometimes a bit of a log jam.
A fridge and water in the room would also be...
「From check in to departure, we could not have asked for a more wonderful experience. Every member of the staff was welcoming, beyond accommodating, and made our stay a truly memorable experience. This is also the most beautiful and well-maintained property I have ever visited, and was such a peaceful, relaxing escape from the major cities. I also greatly appreciated that the property only accommodates a small number of guests, which made the stay feel very private and intimate, while still...
「The hotel is a bit off the beaten path but the amenities of the hotel were what sold us, however the sauna and hot tub were not available, nor were options to look at any of the farm to table process that the website mentions. Room temperature is controlled by staff and our room was HOT! We had asked that it be set cooler but that did not happen so it was hard to get to sleep. With all of that said, the pool area was lovely! The breakfast was incredible and the staff are very lovely.」
「Local espetacular. Bem arejado, agradável, iluminado, limpo, confortável. Banheiro amplo. Internet wifi funciona bem. Café da manhã bem completo. Área da piscina relaxante com uma paisagem maravilhosa. Estacionamento no local. Todos foram muito prestativos e atenciosos.」
「The place was really quiet and the view was stunning. The breakfast was really good as well with most food being locally sourced.
The Panoramic Villa was nice, there was a bit of a misunderstanding at first when the host showed us the Villa but was resolved afterwards. Also the shower seemed to be stucked to really hot temperature but adding a little force to the other side of the fosset did fix it to more reasonable temperatures.」
「Parking onsite was great. The pool was a wonderful way to relax after exploring the valley (especially since it was very hot). We had dinner there the first night and it was excellent. Great breakfast with stunning views.」
「This inn is WONDERFUL. Christiano's attention to detail, ensuring the stay is perfect in every way, is unparalleled. Everyone who works there is incredibly nice, warm, and attentive. They really want their guests to have a perfect stay - and we did. Rooms are lovely and comfortable. We all (the guests that week) wanted to take the bedding and beds with us. Food - breakfast and dinner - is fantastic to eat and elegantly served. Common space is beautiful and cozy. Pool area is lovely, with...
「Fantastic stay for 2 nights in late September. Location is a challenging drive up a mountain, mixed signage. Great staff, lovely room and outstanding view on a clear sunny day. One challenge - breakfast is provided, dinner is not available....we did ask for a cheese platter one evening (the only option) but it was not made for us, not sure why - so we had to drive 15 mins into town in the dark. Overall a fantastic stay but be warned it is not a hotel, it is a quinta (farm) that does not...
