Quinta Vale de Lobos Douro

Quinta Vale de Lobos Douro

10/10 Excellent
"This quaint, beautiful property overlooking the Douro River was breathtaking! In the 'valley of the wolf', the vantage point of the valley was amazing and beyond peaceful. The room was cozy, balcony shared but not intrusive, inclusive breakfast was delicious and the 'honor system' for drinks made you feel like home! It was a perfect stay for our all-go time tasting port. The village was charming as well."

"This is truly a hidden gem in the beautiful Douro River Valley! When we arrived at this beautifully maintained historic casa, Daniel warmly welcomed us and immediately made us feel like part of the family that has owned the property for more than seven generations. Our room was exceptionally clean and comfortable, with double doors opening onto a patio offering spectacular views of the Douro River. We arrived around 6:00 p.m., just in time for a refreshing swim in the gorgeous pool. More than 7.5 feet deep and long enough for laps, it was the perfect way to relax after a day of travel. Vineyards surround the entire property, creating a truly special setting. That evening, Daniel and Paolo served a delicious dinner with wonderful local wines to us and the other 12 guests. We shared two large stone tables that looked centuries old. Dinner was served outdoors at 7:30 p.m., with an amazing sunset over the mountains and river as our backdrop. Sharing the tables allowed us to meet fellow travelers from Holland and Belgium, adding a pleasant social element to the evening. After traveling all day from Porto and visiting Quinta Nova winery, which we highly recommend near Pinhão, we were ready for a good night’s sleep. The next morning, we enjoyed a complete breakfast in the beautiful main dining room, including homemade pastries and delicious Pastéis de Nata. Our stay at Casa de Casal de Loivos was a highlight of our trip through northern Spain and the Douro Valley."
