Breakfast was simple, flavored and enough! Bread was from another world and the croissant was marvelous.
The location is fantastic and extremely relaxing... hearing the river flow and the birds in the morning couldn't be better!

Such a beautifully renovated house, quality material, super isolating double glass windows which gave us the feeling to be totally distant from the outside (which after being in cities we really appreciated enormously!), so perfect for our daily meditations. I especially liked the style: modern and traditional very well combined, some nice wood here and there, the love for details everywhere.

We were here in early June 2023, newly converted and we were their 2nd guests. Very good, no its excellent, accommodation. Coming here is getting away from the tourist scene of beaches and crowds. The kitchen dining living room was easy to work in, the bedroom very comfortable. WiFi, power points, table very workable. Could easily be accommodation could spend a week in. The owner is next door and very helpful.
Could easily be used as a base to explore areas within a 20 or 30km or more range.
Went to a local restaurant ( cafe Flor do Paraiso) just down the road for probably our best home cooked Portuguese meal of the trip. The cafe is local enough that its not even on Google.

Stunning views, excellent choice of pools, well-appointed bedroom and bathroom, large twin queen beds, great breakfast, wonderful formal restaurant, casual dining menu needs more selection, check in was a bit too slow but staff are amazingly helpful and friendly.

If we had known that the road to the house were that narrow, we would have accepted the hosts offer to personally lead us to the house. The house was overall gorgeous and spacious. We loved our experience there. If we had known that the experience was that lovely, we would have stayed for at least a week.

It's a bit isolated from city life (30 - 40 minutes from Porto), but sometimes getting away from it all is necessary for mental health, right ? Good hiking opportunities and abundant beautiful scenery !

This immaculate two bedroom apartment is in a beautiful, modern home with new furniture and cabinetry throughout. The kitchen is very well stocked with high quality cooking supplies and lots of elegant glassware and dishes. The spacious bathroom has a modern shower and spotlessly clean granite and tile. It was truly a treat to stay in a place that felt like a home away from home.
This was an amazing find. Brilliantly hidden on the banks of a small river that ends up in the Douro. Steep downhill through the beautiful Portuguese countryside, small roads through vineyards on hillsides. The hotel is amazing, in the middle of nature. The staff was overwhelmingly friendly. Brilliant secret luxurious hide-away.
The lady running the hotel was super friendly, welcoming and helpful. The hotel as a whole is in amazing condition and is very clean. The room we had was perfect! It was very clean and comfy with an amazing view of the country side. I would definitely recommend this place if anyone is interested in visiting the area.
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful stone house surrounded by orange and tangerine trees. Lots of space for our family of 4. We visited during the winter and really enjoyed staying warm by the fire (stove). Castelo de Paiva was cute town and convenient location
The place is located as per the name in the nature between the mountains. Very quite and peaceful. There is nothing around in terms of hotel or bar within 10KM radius. But over all it was very pleasant place to take break from hustle and bustle of the city life.
Freshly renovated hotel, nicely decorated with some touches of old Portuguese furniture. Owned by a family who greatly takes care to run this place as good as they can. Great hospitality from the owners and great breakfast with some fruits from their own trees.
The place was very clean, comfortable, and spacious. The hostess and her brother were super friendly and helpful.
The hotel is located in a small quiet town, with few options for public transportation or ride share, but it's no problem if you have a car.
Staff were kind and good with families. Relaxing environment. Easy to get to from Porto airport. Great for a hotel Holiday, but if you want to get out and about driving is required. Guest experience manager at hotel is excellent.
Service was superb that made the hotel felt like a cosy and welcoming home.
Breakfast spread is good. There’s a little waterfall as part of the hotel
Short easy drive from Porto to be surrounded by amazing scenery.
The hotel is stunning. Everything is beautiful
And well thought. Nature is spectacular. Staff super friendly. It rained the whole time we were there but we still had a nice time chilling at the pool.
Location was great, if you have a car. A few short miles from the Douro river and less than an hour from Porto. Host was superb. Very friendly and helpful. Made a fire for us.
Very friendly hosts that are willing to help in case you need anything, amazing views to the Douro river and the mountains, excellent breakfast. The room was very clean.
The terrace in the room was nice. The boyfriend of manager helped with luggage.
The towels were better than other places (of 2-3 star hotels\apartments)
