We had a fantastic stay at the property. The check-in was easy and our kids loved swimming in the pool. The adults would often find themselves sitting on the deck watching the evolution of the day with the changing colours of the valley and then the twinkling of lights.

Fantastic property with beautiful view of the river and valley. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend this property. Our host welcomed us with a bottle of wine from their vineyard, oranges from the tree outside the back door and loaf of local bread.

This gorgeous home on a working vineyard met all of our expectations. The view over the stunning vineyards down to the Douro Valley is magical. The home is large and comfortable and has all you need for a relaxing stay. The host was lovely and responsive. We will return for a longer stay!

Second time staying at this property. Owners are very accommodating. Everything we needed was on hand including picking oranges from the tree for fresh squeezed juice every day. Be sure to check out the notebooks for what to do and where to eat!

Can’t say enough about our peaceful experience at this home. It is incredibly well stocked—including wonderful veggies from the organic garden. The views are magnificent. Pool is great. I have never stayed anywhere that I enjoyed as much. Also had a bottle of their homemade wine from the organic vineyard on the property. It was also wonderful.

The look, directly from the heights of the river valley, down to the river or the valley mountains on the other side, was breathtaking. The house and it’s surrounding is well maintained and has everything you need for a comfortable stay ( incl. central heating etc) You definitely need a car, as it’s kind of remote. The weather begin of May was cold and rainy, but the house has a lot of space to make even that relaxing.

What a fantastic location and property in the Douro Valley. The views across the river are amazing. This is a fully functioning organic farm. We collected fresh eggs, berries and other fruit, potatoes, onions, etc. The host has done an amazing job remodeling an original rock house with a completely modernized interior. We highly recommend this property.

Stunning position and lovely to sample some of the garden produce and eggs, and the wine of course. The local railway was useful to visit up and down the Douro Valley as a break from driving along the steep and winding roads. Our flight to Porto arrived quite late. I would recommend stopping at a supermarket on the way for provisions.

The view you see in the photo hardly does justice to just how lovely this house is. Not only is the house immaculate, comfortable and beautiful, but the views from the many decks are spectacular. And the pool - The perfect ending to a day of travels!!! Also must mention the gardens with oranges, vegetables, lavender and much more and the three places to picnic outside. We were tempted to just stay at the house for our days in the Duoro Valley!!!!

We wanted a relaxing holiday with warm weather and beautiful views. This we got for sure! We didn’t want to do too much touring so a pool was a must. Quinta da Portinha ticked all the boxes and then some. Since this property is a vineyard an organic farm we had fresh eggs each day, oranges, lemons, blueberries, raspberries, beautiful lettuce and all sorts of herbs. Other things grow in the garden but, of course, they don’t all ripen at once. We wish to thank Guilhermina, Pedro, Daniela and her husband for their hospitality and kindness.

We had a "too brief" stay here with our two adult children and one of their partners. We were blown away by the views as soon as we arrived! They definitely lived up to the pictures on the listing. Guilhermina and Pedro were very quick to respond to any questions and Alexandra did an excellent job introducing us to the property, with Pedro on speakerphone to explain everything in English. We really enjoyed picking and eating fresh vegetables and herbs from the garden and even retrieved a few eggs from the hen house. We would LOVE to return one day for a longer visit!

The house and property was even better than advertised and the host family was so easy to work with. The kitchen and living space had everything we needed and the beds were very comfortable. The view of the Duoro valley was spectacular and the outdoor living spaces perfect to enjoy the view andvrural life. The vineyards, vegetable garden, fruit grove, and hen house were an extra delight. While we didn't use the game rooms and beautiful pool because we were busy exploring the valley, they looked inviting and would be perfect for entertainment and relaxing. We can't offer enough positive comments on our stay at this property. It would be highly recommended for those visiting the Duouro Valley or wanting to stay a short distance outside of Porto.

We completely enjoyed our stay in this house. I need to start with the view. It is one of the most amazing views I have ever seen in my life. You will not want to leave the house! The house is very well equipped. The owners are extremely nice. Excellent communication. The food from the garden was such a treat. We would love to return for a longer period of time. Just exceptional. Thank you!!!

This was a beautiful house with gorgeous views, a refreshing pool (although a little cold at first, but no complaints), access to fresh veggies from the garden and eggs from the chicken coop. We loved our stay at Guilhermina’s house. We were greeted at the property by her son Pedro, who provided a complete tour of the house and property before Guilhermina joined us. He showed us where everything could be found, how to use the dish washer and washing machine, and where to find fresh vegetables and eggs. They even provided a bottle of their property wine and a local loaf of bread. We took them up on several of the restaurant and winery recommendations as well. I would definitely stay here again if we ever get a chance to return to the region, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet place to stay in the valley.

We truly enjoyed our stay and recommend this home to anyone. It is situated in the mountains of the Douro Region overlooking the river. It has a wonderful deck to enjoy your morning coffee or meals. The home has plenty of space (we had 5 in our party) and is fully equipped with everything you need. This Quinta is a working vineyard and farm. It is wonderful that they allow you to harvest from their farm. We enjoyed lettuce, potatoes, onions, herbs, garlic, cherries, strawberries, blueberries, and fresh eggs. They also produce their own vinho verde which I recommend purchasing a couple bottles. There is also an infinity edge pool and a game room. If you have kids they will have plenty to keep themselves entertained. From the Quinta to the more popular wineries it takes roughly 60+ minutes with lots of winding roads. Nearby are some historic sites, museums and thermal baths. There is also a grocery store 10-15 minutes away. The owners are very nice and responsive. We will be back.
