A Stunning Retreat with Exceptional Hospitality
Our stay at Casa do Vale de Cerdeiras was absolutely wonderful. The property is a true gem, surrounded by lush fruit trees that provided us with fresh fruits each day—a delightful touch that added to our experience. The house itself is beautifully maintained and fully equipped with everything we needed. It's worth noting, however, that there are quite a few stairs, which might be a consideration for those with mobility issues. What truly set this experience apart was the exceptional hospitality provided by Victor, the owner. From the moment we arrived, Victor went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. He not only gave us thoughtful and personalized recommendations but also made sure we had access to unique local experiences that most visitors might miss. His attentive communication and the thorough walkthrough of the property made us feel incredibly well taken care of. Overall, this property offers a perfect blend of beauty, comfort, and outstanding service. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable retreat.

Stunning property with outstanding views
A beautiful renovation of an old existing hillside farmhouse into a combination of very modern and original features. Excellent accommodation with five en-suite bathrooms, a stunning lounge area and a chef's kitchen. Glass walls to the SE side of the accommodation to provide stunning views over the garden, hillsides and down to the Douro. Early morning fog bands make it very atmospheric. Highly recommended, but it is down the end of a long narrow lane. So travelling in a full-size car is a challenge for the unfamiliar! Excellent bakery in the village as well as a homely restaurant.

5 Star for Everything!!!
The house was beautiful,magical,homey and the views from the pool and pergola were absolutely breathtaking. The kitchen was well appointed with everything you could possibly need. Especially for Paula our very talented and kind chef who came to cook for us on 2 occasions If I could give a 6 star I would as Victor the owner just couldn’t do enough for us. He was there when we needed him for restaurant recommendations, directions for the hiking path, cab bookings and kind enough to fix the coffee maker not once but twice without judgment of us not reading directions properly. Even though he lives on the property you never saw him unless we needed him. I can’t stress enough how wonderful this house is whether it’s for 10 people or just 4. We hope to go back again some day and share with our friends and family what we experienced.

A lovely stay above the clouds
Victor went above and beyond as our host. Before even checking into the house, he helped set up transportation, rental cars, and a restaurant reservation recommended by him. His house was absolutely beautiful, and he greeted us upon our arrival to show us around the property. Thanks to him, we also had a unique lunch experience at this tavern on our first full day in town. Would reccomend to anyone!

Celebration in Duoro Region
Victor welcomed us into his home and took us on a tour so we could familiarize ourselves. He also sent a document with a quick overview and important notes about the property and surrounding area. The house was great! Our group of 7 fit easily, with plenty of communal spaces. The property itself was also amazing. We were able to go on walks around the area and come back to sit and relax with a coffee or nectarine from the trees outside. Overall, great experience!

Amazing stay in Duoro
Victor is an amazing host. Checkin and communication throughout our stay was very easy. The property is a gem. Very personal and decorated with beautiful art. The views and just walking the grounds was a dream. The bed rooms were perfect for our family and had their own bathrooms in each room. Victor provided excellent recommendations and helped with some bookings. Would absolutely stay again.

Beautiful property in a beautiful location
We had a lovely week at Victor’s property. Victor met us on arrival and showed us around the house and provided a lovely welcome with gifts of wine and some local delicacies. The house has amazing views over the river. The property is modern and very well designed and the outside areas all beautiful. It is also very well equipped with all you need.We had days by the pool and watched the sunset from the vine covered terrace with a drink in the evening, followed by fun games of pool at night! Porto is about an hours drive and very accessible. We had a day there and also went on a wine tour and had a day in the river (both from Victors recommendations) which were fantastic days out. This part of Portugal is lovely and I would certainly recommend this property to anyone.

Douro Dreams Come True
Rented this villa to celebrate a birthday with a group of friends. Absolutely perfect setup with 5 en suite bedrooms and roomy kitchen and living area for hanging out and watching the ever changing weather. Victor was a perfect host, always available when needed, and Paula made us a wonderful dinner which we enjoyed on the terrace at sunset. Gorgeous property. Highly recommend. We already are hoping to come back.

Great property with lovely Douro views
Really lovely property with fantastic views over the pool & across the Douro valley. Quite a few stairs internally & down to the pool, so a bit of caution required. Victor very helpful & booked local restaurant for us. Railway station 10 minute drive away, so handy for day trip to Porto (1 hour journey) or 2 hours up the river valley for a very scenic trip. Local area not touristy at all, which is lovely, but therefore local eating out options somewhat limited.

Great for a relaxing villa stay
Lovely individual property overlooking the Douro. Be aware it's not a busy touristy area, so suited to a relaxing time in the house, not necessarily tourism. There's a couple of small shops and cafes in walking distance, but you'll be driving for any serious shopping, restaurants, etc. The walk down to the river is lovely but very steep. Be careful of routes your satnav suggests - some of the local roads can be very thin and rough, so if it suggests turning off a main road to save a few minutes, think carefully. The actual house is really nice, plenty of space and facilities, nice grounds, etc.

Simply stunning ☀️
We do “villa with pool” holidays every year. Casa do Vale Cerdeiras has quite simply been the best one we have ever been to. The views are breathtaking, the house is beautifully furnished, well equipped, extremely clean and one you could stay for the duration of your holiday without ever wanting to leave it (which my 4 teenage children actually attempted to do). The pool was a fantastic temperature and very clean, the pool table was an incredible bonus, the outdoor seating area is massive and furnished with the most beautiful table which can easily sit 12 people. I sat there for many hours smelling the beautiful aromas from the herb garden whilst totally lost in the view. Victor was a kind and thoughtful host. He made sure that everything ran smoothly and introduced us to some hidden gems in the area that we definitely would never have found on our own. He was prompt in answering any of our communications and a really lovely guy. The local area has a butchers, bakers, ATM and two very small supermarkets. Larger supermarkets a 15 minute drive away in Baião and Cinfaes. Due to the number of indoor stairs and exterior ones, I wouldn’t recommend this villa to anyone with small children or mobility issues. Let me just finish by saying that if you stay here, please please please emerse yourself in the local culture. Everyone is incredibly friendly, the scenery is stunning, the food excellent and I guarantee you’ll leave (like we have) with having had a truly memorable holiday.

Amazing place
This contemporary-style villa is set high up in the Douro valley, with exceptional views over the river. The peace and quiet and the views provide a change of scenery. The villa is clean and welcoming, just like home. Victor's welcome and availability are exceptional in their kindness and simplicity, and he is always on hand with a smile to help you discover his magnificent region. I unreservedly recommend this place for a relaxing holiday, full of cultural and culinary discoveries. Thank you once again to Victor and Paula for their kindness. Patricia et Phillipe

Ein wunderschöner Haus, dass mann am liebsten nicht mehr verlassen möchte
Wir waren 5 Freunde die das Haus für zwei Wochen gemietet haben. Jeder hatte sein eigenes Zimmer mit Bad, was wir sehr genossen haben. Alles ist toll und stilvoll eingerichtet und sehr gepflegt. In der Küche war alles vorhanden um wunderbare Gerichte zu kochen. Vor allem der Pool war ein Traum mit wunderbarem Blick auf den Duero. Es ist das Geld jederzeit Wert. Lieber Gruss Roberto

Très agréable séjour dans la vallée du Douro
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans cette villa. La maison est idéale pour le groupe de 9 personnes que nous étions. Les chambres sont spacieuses et disposent de nombreux rangements. La terrasse extérieure est parfaite pour le petit déjeuner et le dîner. La villa offre de magnifiques points de vue sur la vallée du Douro. Nous avons été très bien accueilli, notre hôte parlant bien français. Il nous a utilement conseillé des découvertes locales. L'entretien de la maison et de la piscine fût efficace et discret. Nous avons été très contents de notre séjour et recommandons cette location.
