Quinta do Sol

Beautiful house and garden area. Stunning views from the garden and pool. Sara was the perfect host with an eye for detail. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable.

Everything was perfect

Sara has a very nice house! Big garden with plenty of areas to chill, an outdoor kitchen, big living room etc. she also has stacked up on some local wines in the fridge that you can try (for a small cost). She also gave us plenty of recommendations for local restaurants etc.

Mosquito nets could have been nice in the bedroom, as it’s in the country side and mosquitoes are present.

Quinta do Sol is a true gem in Alijó. The host, Sara, is incredibly warm and welcoming, making you feel at home from the moment you arrive. The garden offers stunning views and plenty of cozy corners to sit and relax. Each morning, breakfast was a delight, with fresh juices and a daily egg prepared in a different style. Sara also provided great tips for exploring the area, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The honesty bar is a lovely touch, offering delicious local wines, and the nearby supermarket and outdoor kitchen make it easy to enjoy meals on-site. A perfect place to unwind and experience the beauty of the Douro Valley.

The only downside for us was the bed, which felt quite firm. Still, the overall experience was wonderful and we would definitely recommend this place to others.

First of all, Sarah is a perfect host!! She is warm, kind, comforting and welcoming. It is worth coming here just for her. Apart from that the room we got was very nice, it had everything we needed and we felt comfortable in it. Our view from the balcony was excellent. We used the pool and enjoyed it.

Although we knew this, the location was a bit far from the center and the tourist spots. In addition, the room was a bit small and if we had to stay another night it might have been a problem. Nothing more than that..
