Lovely stay. Whilst we were there we had the most wonderful wine tour with a really knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide, and with a tasting of some lovely wines. Dinner was delicious. Breakfast too. We'd been meaning to visit the Douro Valley for a long time and were not disappointed!

We stayed in the new modern building, and the room was very spacious, as was the bathroom. Bathroom included a soaking tub and separate shower. The room also included it's own little outdoor sitting area which was perfect for just 2 people with views onto vineyards across the valley. They had oranges from their plentiful orange trees on the property in our room when we arrived, and more available at the desks around the building - SO DARN GOOD! We did the tour and tasting (which is complimentary for guests of the Quinta) which was really nerdy (in the best way possible) - they've set up a virtual reality view of start to finish in making wine: picking grapes, cleaning them, processing, etc. I had a massage as well which was just ok; i'll admit that i'm more of a deep tissue lots of pressure sort of person, and this was more swedish style massage with some pressure. FYI the 75 min massage offered isn't described on the 'menu' very well: the masseuse told me that it's a body scrub with grape seeds, followed by a shower, then lastly a massage. Otherwise: definitely recommend.

We didn't enjoy the interior of our bedroom - it was timber clad throughout, floors, roof and walls, which may be a benefit in the summer for temperature's sake but it felt oppressive and dark in April. My partner is 6'2" and felt constrained. There is a snug-like floor above which has seating and a small window but we didn't use it at all, waste of time and space.

The views were stunning from our room porch, loved the sense of peace and tranquility throughout the living areas, and the smells cannot be explained, you have to be present. Hotel dinners with wine tasting, and also the inclusive wine experience, was the best we had in this trip; Marcus was very experienced, informative and fun, he took time to consider our likes and the opportunity to sample wines at dinner was excellent.

Not a great option for a vegan dinner. We had advised before the trip we required vegan food but still we were given a cheese dish and some butter.

Breakfast was excellent, staff are great and the hotel and facilities very good. Restaurant had a vegetarian option.

A lot of ants in the room :)

The interior and exterior design of the hotel is beautiful. The views all over are spectacular. The quinta is really impressive. We stayed 4 nights there because we wanted to enjoy everything that the property has to offer. The wine tasting and the presentation of the process of wine production was also very interesting.

Excellent tour of the facilities, wine tasting, and wine pairing with the dining room's meals. The rooms in the modern wing are fabulously designed.

Loved everything about Quinta do Vallado

Food could’ve been better but it wasn’t too bad. Just in comparisons to other nice restaurants in Porto. They should make it adults only. A lot of couples, like us, were there to enjoy peace and wine. Few kids on the last day of our travel were quite loud in the pool and sound travels in such a quiet area. So please, leave your kids behind and enjoy the hotel and wine!

Absolutely beautiful views, very comfortable rooms and facilities. Fantastic hospitality, great wine and the complimentary wine tour of the vineyard was even better. There’s also some trails you can do and hike which was enjoyable. Pool and bar are also great.

The rooms were good but there was no differentiation, they are standard inside. The eggs for breakfast could be improved

The service is amazing, the personnel is nice and always ready to help. Couldn't ask for more The pool next to the river is very nice, walking through the vineyards and obviously appreciate the great wine and story.

Wish we could have hiked the trails on their property but it was raining during our stay.

* Accommodating and friendly staff * Bang for your buck (a similar accommodation in Napa Valley would be $600 and up per night) * Beautifully decorated public spaces * Modern building architecture (we stayed in the new building) * Beautiful outdoor areas * Seclusion and quiet (we went in off-season) * Bountiful breakfast * Educational wine making and tasting tour

It was close to a highway, but we didn’t really hear it.

Beautiful facilities, delectable food, wonderful staff, and every detail was impeccable.

Rooms were a bit dated, however so spacious and very clean. probably not the best place to bring a 1 y.o. however everyone was accommodating.

Everything about the property is breathtaking. Staff is very friendly, food is wonderful, and the wine is incredible. Rooms were so big and spacious which was great for our family. No river views but still beautiful views of the mountains. we loved our stay here, absolutely amazing.

This place was like something out of a movie. The views were spectacular. The wine tour included was really cool even if you are not one for wine tours I highly recommend to check it out. The facilities and grounds of the hotel were absolutely stunning. The dinner with wine was so good but make sure you go super hungry because they give you a ton of food. Our air conditioning unfortunately was not working but they brought us a fan which helped and they also took care of our drinks that evening. Highly recommend we wish we could have stayed longer!
