A localização
O cuidado detalhado de toda a Equipe para fazer acontecer tudo ao mais alto nível
- Miguel (10/5): - Fui devido à prova de ciclismo no domingo de manhã do Love Tiles Douro Granfondo 2026. Por essa razão pedi para ter o pequeno almoço às 7h e assim foi. Com uma enorme simpatia, o pequeno almoço estava à minha espera, apenas o pão que era entregue teve de esperar pelas 7h30, mas de resto tudo impecável. A minha esposa e filha tomaram-no mais tarde e adoraram também. A paisagem era fenomenal. Foi a estadia perfeita para este tipo de evento. O quarto da minha filha teve um bónus inesperado. Tinha beliche que ela adorou e fez questão de o exprimir aos gritos. Até a filha que teve não pôde vir ficou cheia de inveja por esse facto. O espaço tinha microondas e cozinha toda equipada. Não me pareceu que tivessem possibilidade de deixar carregar o nosso carro elétrico, mas também confesso que não perguntei. Não foi problema, visto haver perto vários locais onde o fazer. Fico sempre na dúvida, mas a sanita tinha um daqueles avisos atrás que diziam para não colocar papéis na sanita. Penso que se referiam ao papel higiénico, principalmente... Devido à posição do aviso, dificilmente nos lembrávamos de não o fazer, mas assim que o começámos a fazer, começava a ficar uma zona muito desconfortável da casa ao olfacto.

- VALERIE (8/5): Une Quinta avec piscine et rien de plus - L’emplacement viticole La literie catastrophique, la salle de bain 10 mn pour avoir de l’eau chaud sous la douche,
Odeur d’égout des qu’on entre dans la chambre
Au milieu des vignes sans qu’une proposition de dégustation soit faite durant les : jours du séjour
A savoir pas de restauration possible pour le dîner à Santa Marta tout est fermé en plein mois d’août, obligé de redescendre à Vila Réal …

- Alexander (10/5): Highly recommend to stay here - Location is stunning. The owner is super friendly. The place is very clean and modern. Very good swimming pool.
- Christine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eyal (8/5): Nice place with decent price. - Beautiful place in a great location in the heart of the Douro valley. The farm is really unique, and there are special and authentic staff in the facility. The breakfast was great and the owners are really great and welcoming.
We stayed only one night. The room that we had has a very small bed for 2 mature people, and wasn’t comfortable at all. The bath is very very simple compared to to the facility and the shower was half broken with low stream.
If this only in our room and other rooms are perfectly so my review could have been close to perfect.
- Joanna (10/5): - Spectacular on all counts.
Set amidst breathtaking, steep vineyards, the beautifully maintained Quinta is an essence of peace and elegance. The property is a complex of solid stone buildings with tasteful architecture, nestled at the bottom of the valley in perfect harmony with its surroundings.
Every detail, big and small, is thoughtfully cared for. The atmosphere is perfectly peaceful and green, with only the songs of birds waking you in the morning.
The host at reception was fantastically welcoming. My room was large and impressively tall, with a comfortable bed and a spacious bathroom. I needed to leave at 7 a.m. on a Sunday, and the host kindly offered to prepare breakfast earlier than the usual 8:30 a.m. start.
But the most unique aspect of the Quinta is the feeling it gives you: as though you've been transported to another world—a family vineyard residence, secluded and surrounded by vines, at the bottom of the valley, with no other buildings or people in sight.
Remember there are two access roads to Quinta. The one heading from south to north is very steep - not recommended if you are on a motorcycle. However the other access, from north to south - is perfectly accessible.
- Tom (10/5): Beautiful setting and friendly owners. Highly recommend - Amazing location, building and pool.
The staff are not staff they are the owners and family and they are all lovely and extremely welcoming. Nothing much
- Simão (9/5): Beautiful surroundings and friendly staff. - The views are really beautiful with the property located in a valley surrounded by mountains full of vineyards. The pool and gardens are nice and the staff is very friendly. The staff even allowed us to come to the pool after checkout. There are also some cats, a dog and some chickens in the property. If you are looking for a central location near the city this is not it. However, if you want a peaceful and beautiful place this is a good option ~20 min away from the main city of Peso da Régua.
- Kevin (9/5): Beautiful and peaceful stay - A beautiful peaceful location in a valley. Wonderful to have breakfast in the sun on the deck overlooking the vineyard. Friendly staff. Very good breakfast. Excellent wifi in the main part of house. Poor wifi in the bedroom.
- Arturo (8/5): Very good -

- Simon (10/5): Excellent, good location and stay -

Room was ready with a cot on arrival, João and his mum Antonieta were so accommodating, nothing was too much hassle and they were always so friendly especially with our daughter 😊 the rest of the staff were also very friendly! We will be coming back in the future! The views and the peacefullness are definitely what makes this place so special. Toddy the cocker spaniel was also a favourite for me ❤️ Thanks again 😄

Just imagine being in the middle of the vineyards, 100% calmness, in a amazing beautiful valley surrounded by green mountains, and still with all comforts of modern life. The staff is super friendly. Nothing to report.
- Antonio (10/5): Family trip, all adults - The place is stunning. In the middle of the mountains, in a lovely valley.
It is an amazing place. Nothing to refer to.
- Eileen (9/5): Wonderful - We arrived later than expected with the winding roads and the owner was waiting for us.

- Port tastjng (8/5): Hotel, set in vineyards - This is a beautiful family run hotel, set in vineyards. The grounds are well kept, the pool excellent, and breakfast good. No bar or restaurant. The rooms are vintage but have everything necessary.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Détente dans le vignoble - Difficile à trouver vu l'isolement.
Dommage que le gérant ait essayé de nous "refiler" une chambre standard alors que nous avions réservé la "luxe".
- Robert (10/5): Tranquil location amongst the vines. - Situated in a beautiful valley with stunning views but you will need a car to get here as it is out in the sticks. There was no restaurant on-site (in June) but you can go to the nearest small town to find cooked food or buy from the supermarket and bring it back to eat. There is a small kitchen associated with the room rent which can be used for food preparation. Try the wines made at the property; both red and white are excellent - as was the port which unfortunately was not for sale. There is a very nice pool which Is partially covered and a garden in which to sit in. Buffet breakfast was good and you can either sit inside the dinning room or outside on the terrace overlooking the vines. Recommended.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Un lieu de rêve ! - Au milieu des vignes au coeur de la vallée du Douro, l'établissement est très plaisant, calme et propice au repos. Venir avec quelques courses pour ne plus quitter le lieu, une cuisine mise à disposition ainsi qu'une terrasse très agréable permet de profiter véritablement des soirées très agréables. la piscine est superbe ! L'accueil est simple et chaleureux.
Très Bon rapport qualité/prix
- Evelyn (10/5): A gem in the Douro wine region! - We loved everything about the Solar Quinta. John and his Mom were so friendly and gave us such good service and the setting couldn't have been more spectacular. We were sorry that we had to leave. This was our favorite place to stay in over 8 weeks of traveling in Europe. They even cooked dinner for us when we asked for a place to dine, which was wonderful. It also was excellent value! They are doing a marvellous job and we definitely recommend their business and their wine! Even though we had trouble finding the location a person in the little town above to the north ,that we stopped to ask for directions, phoned them and then led us to the road we were to take. In the meantime John was driving up from the valley to meet us! I think it would have been easier to find had we approached from Regau to the south but nonetheless it was more than worth the effort. It is nestled down in a valley so be prepared for a steep winding drive and check out the location ahead of time as we could not get it on our GPS.
- Colin (10/5): Quality Family Run Quintas - We stumbled upon this little oasis and stayed for 3 nights. From the very start João and his Mum made us feel at home. The rooms are super clean and homely, and you can book one with air con. They have an amazing pool, a games room in an outhouse and can cook upon request. Kids would love it as there is lots to do, plus a spa (hot tub). It's also very close to Vila Real (20mins) and Regua (Douro river - 30 mins). The photos are spot on and they whole package is a winning formula. If you are looking for an authentic off the tourist path Quintas then Solar da Portela is for you!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Sommerferie i Portugal - Hotellet ligger i en dal omgivet af vinmarker. Hotellet har gode faciliteter. Hotellet har egen vinproduktion, hvor der er mulighed for en fremvisning på vingården og prøvesmagning af deres vin og portvin. Området er ideelt til gå - og cykelture. I en lille landsby ca. 5 km fra hotellet er der mulighed for at bade i en flod.
- Francisco Alves (10/5): Tudo fantástico - Ótima, região muito bonita, nota dez.
- Joe (8/5): Beautiful but very remote - Beautiful location but hotel has no food and nearest restaurants 20 minutes away. With that one drawback, this is a winner.
- Martin (10/5): - This Agro-turismo winery was perfect for a combo of tourist relaxation and a place to take short trips to the nearby cities of Vila Real, Lamego and Regua by the river Douro, and to get a glimpse of a daily life at a winery. The family was very service minded and had a ease about things that made our stay a nice memory. I would gladly recommended this to any one.
- MissD (10/5): Best part of Douro Valley - Stayed at this wonderful hotel as part of our Portugal trip for two nights and loved every single minute of it. The hosts were very accommodating and it felt like we were staying at a country retreat for a fraction of the price. Highly recommend it.
