Tranquil Casa do Monte Douro is a perfect home base from which to explore Portugal’s wine region
We were a large group of 14 friends and stayed at the Casa do Monte Douro for eleven days in June. The villa is not only gorgeous, combining old world character with 21st century comfort, but it was the perfect location from which to explore the Douro Valley and the northern cities, towns and villages of Portugal. Nestled among acres and acres of terraced vineyards, none of us will soon forget the spectacular views, the villa grounds -- a gardener’s delight – as well as the wide array of living spaces and amenities, our favorites among which were the hot tub, the gym, the games room, and the swimming pool.
We started each day with a delicious breakfast prepared by the wonderful Rosa, the villa’s caretaker/housekeeper. Her support and assistance made our stay all the better. Villa owner Marcus is a gracious, responsive, informative, and welcoming host. His suggestions and assistance with arranging experiences such as a local chef to prepare dinner one evening, a curated list of wineries to visit, and advice and assistance in booking other local adventures, made our stay all the more memorable.
For most of us, this was our first trip to Portugal, and we could not have asked for a better introduction to this amazing country and in particular, its wine region. As seasoned villa-experience travelers, we highly recommend Casa do Monte Douro.
