Both the place and service level was that of a 5-star luxury resort. Very beautiful and modern property, with spacious common areas. They have a gorgeous pool surrounded by nature, and they are building a spa and indoor pool. We notice that even the little things like coffee machine and pots were from a good brand. They did not spare any expense to make their guests feel comfortable.
The service from Anna was impeccable, she was welcoming and helpful with suggestions.

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.
Stunning views, excellent choice of pools, well-appointed...
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 !

We stayed at the hotel’s Canastra (bungalow) and we truly enjoyed it. Really relaxing! The view over the mountains is absolutely beautiful!
We went to the Arouca bridge in the next morning and the staffing was really kind and offered us to make the breakfast a bit more earlier so that we could go without rush to our destination.
Really friendly staff. They have partnerships with restaurants and they got the food for us, so we didn’t have to leave the facilities. It’s a somewhat hard drive but really worth it.
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.
Excellent, very generous breakfast, mix of local, continental and health focused cuisine . Michelin level restaurant did not disappoint and was quite frankly a great value. Regular bar also a great option. Wine selection excellent. Location very private, guarantees total disconnect from the world , if you want that. Great hiking trails. Excellent spa.
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.
The hotel is very beautiful and the views are amazing. Breathtaking. Just to sit anywhere and take it all in. The location is outstanding, near Porto and easily accessible for the Douro valley. The walk nearby is as amazing. The facilities , pool, sauna etc are also wonderful.
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
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.
The hotel views and space is great. You can feel the good energy from Douro. The room was great size, really nice balcony and we had surprise services like fruits in the room and tea service every evening. The main hotel restaurant has amazing food.
Very well appointed and a brand new hotel. Both Christiana and Manuel were more than perfect hosts. The rooms are of exquisite beauty and extremelly clean. Breakfast was delicious, especially the home made cakes and pastries. A very enjoyable stay!
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)
