Find Top Homestays in Sao Cristovao do Douro

The location is spectacular, the people are amazing and that is before we even got through the door. Our visit began with Tony the house manager meeting us in the driveway. Tony is professional, caring and all-knowing when it come to things in the Douro Valley. Throughout your stay Tony will ensure every detail of your stay is perfect. After an hour or so you will be convinced that you are the only guest at the resort. The rooms are modern, clean and comfortable. We had a magnificent view of the valley that made us hesitant to leave the room. The living room is a common area on the first floor with great views and comfortable seating. We spent hours in here sampling wine, relaxing and meeting with a few other guests staying in the hotel. During the stay we got a chance to meet the owners Ana and Marco in the restaurant during breakfasts and dinner. Both are so knowledgeable and passionate about the valley, their place and ensuring their guests have a the best experience possible. Meals in the restuarant are some of the best we had anywhere on our trip. There is attention to every detail and the food is spectacular. We ate in the dining room for 2 of our 3 nights and wish we had stayed in the house for all three dinners. Should we return to the Douro Valley in the future this would be the only place we would even consider staying.
