The staff were great and overall loved our stay. Paying extra for the coffee was questionable.
Pros:

Breakfast was good. Scenery outstanding! Loved that we could wander through the vineyard and ruins on the property.

Cons:

The grounds around the pool and play area were in need of a little TLC. IE: broken furniture needed replacing, broken walkways.

Pros:

Très bel endroit; famille très symathique, disponible et avenante. Excellente dégustation de vins et porto y compris un tour d'horizon extrêmement intéressant concernant la manière de vinifier et de produire le porte. Superbe région

Cons:

la chaleur :-) passé 40° devient un vrai problème....mais la maison est climatisée et il y a une belle piscine à disposition

Lovely stay - beautiful location, interesting wine tour/tasting, and wonderful hospitality.
Pros:

The food, wine, and location were all excellent. Beatrice went above and beyond with her friendliness and hospitality. She drove me and my daughter to town when a taxi was unavailable. Highly recommend!

Peaceful and friendly stay in the middle of vineyards at the Mendiz Valley!
Pros:

We had a very relaxing two nights at this nice Hotel on the Mendiz Valley surrounded by vineyards and beautiful gardens. Both Beatriz and Rui were like friends we knew a long time ago after spending some time at their Quinta. From the check in to the delicious dinner to the delicious breakfasts with eggs cooked to order, everything was a good experience. Rooms are clean and confortable, the views to the vineyards are awesome. We did not get into the pool as it was not warm enough, but the area is beautiful with all the roses around it. We knew the gardens were planted and taken care by Dona Beatriz, the owner of the Quinta. Dinner was great, we were told that they use the family recipes, which we found very good! Pihnao is quite close, it’s worth to go a take one hour tour through the Duoro river, nice landscapes! At Pinhao, we had lunch at O’Porco, and it was delicious! Beatriz also recommended to go to Casal de Loivos, an awesome “miradouro” where you can get the best view of the Duoro Valley! It’s an Unesco site and it’s totally worthy the ride up the mountains! Will stay again at this friendly and confortable hotel!

Very senic area, well worth the trip
Pros:

Unique location

Cons:

It was too far from the town and other attractions. Driving around could be scary at times, especially at night returning to the hotel down a fairly steep narrow cobble road.

Pros:

O Hotel está localizado na região do Douro. A paisagem por si só é lindíssima.
Os anfitriões nos receberam maravilhosamente bem. O restaurante tem pratos deliciosos.
Tivemos que partir cedo no dia seguinte e fizeram questão de nos deixar preparados alguns pães, queijos e fiambres para que pudéssemos tomar café da manhã, apesar do horário que saímos.
A delicadeza e gentileza nos encantaram.
