"Beautiful farm...people were very helpful...lovely setting...and great wines and information about wines and ports. Only issue was finding the place...they do not have a sign at the entrance to the property."
"Remarkable property, grand spaces, pool overlooking wine covered hills.
Ask for corner room if possible, it came with small balcony and views from multiple directions.
The Quinta is located at the end of the most interesting winding road up from Pinhao."
"A definite must stay if you are visiting the Duoro Valley. It is a small slice of paradise once you enter the red door. Manuel was so kind and helpful. The wine paired dinner (for a cost) was delicious and very informative. Highly recommend you book here. "
"The apartment was very spacaious and well organized. The location is in the middle of Doro valley, which was a beatiful location. Check in and out was very easy. Would highly recommend to stay at this place as it is as good as it gets ."
"Beautiful property and grounds, we really enjoyed our stay. They also had a great breakfast each morning and dinner options. Highly recommend to anyone staying in the Douro Valley. "
"A great location with view on Douro River. The staff is very friendly. The hotel is very dated and AC wasn’t working. Staff offered to switch room or a fan… "
"Marco and Joana were extremely helpful and efficient. Although we never actually met them in person, we could feel that they were genuine in their desire to make our stay the best it could be"

Casa de São Domingos
10/10 Excellent
"Really nice and comfortable. We swam in the pool and enjoyed a glass of Chardonnay. Breakfast was very good!"
"What a dream, from the views and the immaculate hotel grounds with convenient dinner options and beautiful terrace to relax and enjoy. We regret not staying longer."
"The vineyard is truly beautiful. The scenery is outstanding and really adds the the luxurious feeling of this hotel. The bed was enormous, it was like having a whole double bed each. The food selection on breakfast and evening was good and not overly expensive. The only complaint would be the wait time on drinks by the pool, there was only one staff member to make drinks and sort food orders so we were often waiting a long time for drinks. This was pacified by having two pools to cool off in and lounge by. I’d absolutely stay again. "

"The property is so tranquil and relaxing with beautiful views of the valley & river. The hosts Paul & Valeria made us feel so welcome. Very friendly and helpful with all our needs. With only 4 rooms currently, the place is intimate and at times all to yourself. Beautiful infinity pool, wood burning hot tub & sauna all with outstanding views. I would love to return when everything is in bloom. Highly recommend Quinta de Raj!! "
"Beautiful property in the beautiful Douro Valley with a nice pool. There is no winery on site, but it is in the middle of beautiful vineyards. You can go down the road to Pinhao or to St. Eufemia Winery for a tour. Breakfast was great and the staff was very accomodating. Great price for a beautiful stay. The property would benefit from some more outdoor leisure areas to sit peacefully and enjoy the view other than the balcony of your room or the pool/deck. Lenore at the desk was very nice and very helpful."
"Incredible stay
Have never experienced customer service like it, everyone went out of their way to help, the team were exceptional.
The room was perfect, extremely well cleaned every day, and the views were amazing too.
We stayed for 4 nights and ate there for 3 of them as the food was so good. Marlena is a wonderful cook.
We absolutely loved our stay, couldn't recommend more highly and can't wait to come back. "
"Accommodations 5* Food 5* Property & Amenities 5*
An inland riveria with what you would desire from a Michelin property.
The rooms and common areas are picturesque and should be visited by Arch Digest. Well appointed and furnished to relax the mind.
The staff is top notch. Not too assertive but very attentive and respectful.
The restaurant options have a nice variety from bar to Michelin. This is what you want. A kitchen that can provide delicious bites on the go and the more exquisite dishes for that special moment.
We personally, loved the breakfast and infinity pool in the mornings, property amenities during the day (gym, vineyard, spa), and bar/restaurant options in the evening. A beautiful oasis to call home base if you are looking to stay put in Douro valley or venture out into the countryside. ~ Cheers."
