Costa D’Ouro is a mountain quiet and peaceful space by the Douro River for those looking for a time to relax by the Portuguese nature, as well as some adventures to practice water sports. The house is close to Castelo de Paiva city center surrounded by local great wine and gastronomy.

Inside the houses, you can count on fully equipped kitchens, private bathrooms with hair dryers, towels and some board games to make the days more fun for the kids. Additionally, a rooftop great for sunbathing, sunsets and why not? See the star during the quiet nights. Exclusively for the House 2 only: chimney and private area for BBQ.

Hi, my name is Mariana Costa, I have dedicated my life to the Portuguese wine industry. I have always felt motivated to share the amazing experiences I have lived in the wine industry and everything related to it, such as the good food, the nature and water spots. Now, I have the opportunity to share my experience through Costa D’Ouro. My goal is that you come to a cozy and fun space to relax and enjoy the beauty of life by the Douro River.
