"Exceptional"

"Beautiful property in a beautiful setting. The staff are wonderful. The manager gave us helpful suggestions for enjoying the area and even drove us to the train station on Easter Sunday morning when we checked out as taxis might have been difficult."

"We had an incredible visit at this magnificent property. Victor greeted us with such hospitality and we felt very welcomed in his beautiful home. The home was immaculately clean and it is nestled in such amazing surroundings. We traveled with our extended family with a group of 6 and there was plenty of room for all of us with private bathrooms as well as full views of the vineyards from each of the bedrooms. In fact, there is a total of 5 bedrooms so plenty of room for extended family. The pool was very relaxing and the outdoor spaces are fantastic with outdoor seating for meals and for enjoying wine by the pool. The beds were very comfortable and the home had a fully stocked kitchen. The location was remote but perfect to feel like you are immersed in the culture. Victor is great about providing things to do during the day and day trips. We took a day trip to Porto and one day trip to a winery, one day trip to a boat wine tour and we went hiking and exploring on our final day. If you are traveling with a group I would recommend a small car as the roads are narrow. We rented two small cars for a group of 6 and it was perfect. We have traveled extensively and this home is at the top of our list and we will definitely return to this beautiful location again! "

"The breakfast was awesome , you picked what you want and it was delivered to the room in the morning. The view was so worth it. "

"Wonderful hotel. The breakfast was probably the best I've had. The spa is great. It is probably overpriced, but they deliver an excellent experience. "

"Excellent location. Host was very helpful throughout the stay. Spectacular views. Everything you needed was at hand. Especially loved the fire on the cool evenings."

"Absolutely wonderful! Views, breakfast, dinner and staff. There is parking and beds are comfortable. You do need to drive if you don’t want to eat at the hotel. "

"We are a family of 5 with 3 kids under 12. We visited in March and it was very quiet/serene. Portovella has a beautiful view of the Douro. Riverside walk is just several steps down a hill. Photos don’t do it justice because it is so breathtaking in person. The comfort suite was the perfect size with 2 bathroom ensuites and a powder room. View from the suite was incredible. Just plan ahead if you’re staying on a Sunday as many restaurants were closed but we found a gem in Cinfaes - Sabores e Memorias where husband and wife cook for you and welcome you in. The pool was not yet open unfortunately since it was March but would have been an incredible view. There’s also a kids playground set which helps for the little ones and a small little fish pond. The property has beautiful lemon and orange trees. A full and delicious warm breakfast was served directly to your door. A very peaceful stay! Highly recommend."

"We chose the wine barrel room and it was a great experience "
