"We had a lovely holiday in Alvarenga. Manuel and his family were warm and welcoming and we loved attempting to chat round the pool in French and Spanish! It's a beautiful area with green eucalyptus hills and the Geo park provided some interesting spots to visit. We didn't explore much because we got lost on the mountain roads on the way to Alvarenga at the beginning of the week but were very glad to stay put and enjoy the immediate locality, although we did make it to Arouca - pretty - & the...

"Everything was as advertised ,clean and functional. The host went out of her way to make sure that my experience was first class and it was. A big shout out to her neighbor who pitch hit for her When she hurt her leg. It’s very close to the train station maybe five minutes by car and it made the right into Douro very very easy."

"A little tropical paradise. Perfect setting next to the water and total seclusion at bottom of valley. There was no-one staying in the second property by the water but don't think it would have changed our opinion. Accommodation was more than adequate and the outdoor kitchen area had everything you'd need. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and the son was our readily available interpreter. We were welcomed with the wine they make on the land and a simple breakfast was supplied each morning at...

"Great place to stay. It had all we expected and needed. Lots of room and good bedrooms. Liked the property and the views. "

"A great place to relax with family. Toddler friendly!"

"Une maison très agréable avec une vue magnifique dans un petit village au calme."

" We instantly fell in love with the charm of this village and the people! Jose thought of every detail to make our stay comfortable!!! The welcoming port wine and grapes was a special touch! The views driving to this VRBO are beyond breathtaking! Would definitely recommend!!!"

"Great property exactly as described, and the setting and views were just the best! The local town 20 mins drive on the river is Amarante and it stole our hearts. The drive straight down the mountain to a slightly closer town Celorico de Basto is not for the faint hearted, and was not repeated. The TV was in French which was a bonus as we don't speak Portugese. The host was very accommodating of our very late arrival at 11pm due to flight issues and responded to all messages immediately.A great...

"We stayed for 3 nights. Beautiful old house, view of water below was so lovely. Enjoyed the pool but it was a little late in the year so it was just a little cold for us at our age. We still did get into it twice. Kitchen had all the pots and utensils we needed. We would love to stay here again when in Portugal."

"If you are planning a trip to explore the 'Rota du Vinho Verde' make this your home for the stay. The family is so welcoming and you won't find a more magical location than the haven they have created. They produce 3 blends of white wine that have more body than many we have tasted - and more complexity. Truly a social find. Self-serve breakfast is included and the supermarket is near to purchase items for picnic or bbq. There is a friendly snack bar/restaurant within walking distance that...
