Farm stays in Vilar de Maçada

Luisa was such a great host, the room was nice and very comfortable and the breakfasts were delicious. Highly recommend staying here.

Joanna was marvelous. She was helpful & friendly. The casa was beautiful & full of history.

Deus was very nice and showed us to the fruit trees and recommended a few places.

In the heart of the Douro. Has its own restaurant and wine tasting so enough to make an afternoon/ overnight stay through the Douro.

A perfect home base for two days in the Douro River Valley! We arrived in the evening and had a spot of trouble with the gate (it was unlocked, we just are dumb and didn't turn the knob hard enough!) so ended up calling, thinking we were locked out. The owners were SO sweet and came to help us right away. The rooms themselves are charming and quaint—it is clearly a much-beloved, old home that has been converted, with lots of antiques and so forth. We booked this place wanting that experience, so we loved our rooms (2 couples), but if you are expecting it to feel like a modern luxury hotel, this might not be the place for you. That being said, we found our accommodations plenty comfy and loved the views over the little town and beyond. Showers were hot, everything was clean, and having the little library/parlor area just off one of our rooms was awesome—we spent an evening drinking wine and playing games there, which was very fun. As far as location, it's definitely a little bit of a harrowing drive through the narrow streets of the little hamlet on the side of the hill. However, it's so, so worth it. The views are spectacular, and it's easy access to Pinhao, which has shops and restaurants etc. We had originally planned to hike to some of the wineries but the weather made us think better of it and ended up driving to two instead. The BEST part, though, was the food and staff. It is very much a family operation, and everyone was SO kind and willing to chat with us. We loved the breakfasts (great coffee and homemade breads/pastries!) and did dinner one of the nights, which was a fantastic experience. So nice to eat around a table with the other guests and experience home-cooked Portuguese food. We drank port after and chatted with María, the owners' mother, who didn't speak much English but we managed to communicate with a mix of Spanish and Portuguese translation apps lol.

Loved the place and the staff, Angela and staff were fantastic.

This is probably the most incredible place I've ever stayed in the world. Everything was perfect from the cozyness of the rooms and common areas, the beautiful interior design, the meals, the wine, the tour, the views, the quiet and seclusion, the staff, just everything. This is definitely the Quinta to stay at if you have any interest in interior design and you want a small and intimate Quinta experience. I loved how few rooms there were, you could meet fellow travelers during breakfast and dinner. The staff were some of the nicest people and taught us so much about the history of this Quinta. The views were unmatched and I could stay there forever! Would definitely stay for 2 nights to get the full experience and just take the train + taxi from Pinhao.

Nothing to complain about all was okay for the price and this hotel has a wonderful view which is a key selling point. The staff was helpful and they will make sure that you have a good time.

Beautiful location and fabulous views! Large property, nice size rooms, very nice washrooms, clean and good amenities. Beautiful pool area. Breakfast was delicious. Our hostess Sofia greeted us with a port wine tasting, she was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property and location. And the staff and breakfast were wonderful. The view from the reception area and dining was absolutely gorgeous. It was a quiet sleepy town in the Duoro Valley but close to wineries.
