The welcome that we got on check- in was the most warm and professional that we have had anywhere in the Douro so far. Our room was huge with excellent views, a Nespresso , powerful shower, excellent air conditioning and very comfortable bed. We ate breakfast, lunch and dinner at the restaurant. Staff do so much to make you comfortable and make excellent suggestions for wine pairing. This is a working vineyard and your stay includes a free tour and tasting , which is very interesting. The hotel is quite new and in very good condition . There is an infinity pool with beautiful views . Like most of the hotels with great views in this region, the drive up to the hotel is along a scary narrow driveway, but here they have a clever traffic light system to ensure you do not meet a huge truck coming the other way. In an areas with so many hyper- expensive 5 star hotels , it was great to find such a stylish yet affordable alternative. Big enough to offer facilities , but small enough that personal touch and hospitality is not lost.
