Vacation rentals with lake access in Amarante

We truly enjoyed our time relaxing at this scenic and historic place. Right along the river, attached to walking trails in a little park. Plenty of space and all the comforts of home. We spent a cool December evening here cozying up next to the fire and reading about the history of the region. The bridge/entrance dates back to roughly 1660-1740, incredible!

Great house in privacy, river nearby, peace and quiet. I recommend!

The family had a fantastic week at a great location. Joao was a great host and super helpful.

Antonio was extremely responsive and generous with his time- picking me up at the station and dropping me off, and giving me a lift to the supermarket and to the river beach as I do not have a car and have reduced mobility. For others with mobility issues, I would say that it is quite steep there (which they warned me about) however I did find a couple of nice walks that were doable for me. The nature is exceptionally beautiful: mists rolling over the river, birds of prey gliding overhead, birdsong, the scent of orange blossom… I also enjoyed making a fire in the wood burner in the evening. This is a convenient place to come from Porto as it is just a few minutes’ drive from the train station which is on a scenic route 1.5 hours from the city. Thanks so much for having me!

Where do I even start?! Staying at Maria's Casa do Rio felt like a magical home away from home. Maria and her sweet dogs gave us a warm welcome when we arrived and gave us a beautiful tour of the property with an overview of its history that you should not miss. She was very accommodating to our check-in time and sensitive to our plans during our stay, which were not many. Since we didn't have much planned for our spur-of-the-moment visit, we were delighted when Maria gave us many suggestions of activities on our own as well as ones with her such as a tour around the area, canoeing, hiking, yoga class, massage, cooking together and so much more. The charm and kind embrace by Maria was otherworldly and an experience in itself that we won't ever forget. If you have any reservations on booking your stay here, you shouldn't because you will not regret a single second at Casa do Rio. Every moment during our stay here is one we will treasure, and we'll be back to visit Maria and her Casa.

The best and most beautiful airbnb i‘ve ever been. Such a beautiful house with very nice interior design. A giant outdoor space. Perfect place to relax and Tiago was so friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back!

If you are looking for a secluded, quiet, peaceful place, then you need to stay at Cesar's House. The sounds of the stream, the quiet neighborhood and get to stay what was a medieval mill gives you the feel of history. Cesar was great. He met us to greet us at our arrival. Treated us to breakfast with croissants, Portuguese patries, and breakfast drinks. The house has all the amenities you need for your stay. There are stores and restaruants within easy walking distance. I felt safe day or night at Cesar's. Can't say enough. Cesar was easy to communicate with as well. Highly recommend!

It is a very nice house, located in a peaceful environment. Gloria's welcome was very cordial and owners Ana and Victor were available to let us know what to do when we arrived in the evening. We came there 5 years ago and will be back if possible.

Everything impeccable, well situated, spacious and clean.

Very pleasant stay at Nuno's, everything was available for the stay to go smoothly, quiet and relaxing place. Access to the nearby pool complex delighted the whole family! We would recommend this listing!

We were seduced by this exotic, quiet and beautiful place! From the accommodation to the outdoor facilities, everything was great! our 11 and 6 year old children also enjoyed the place. Great hospitality from the host, we already know in advance that we will be back!!

Nice and very well equipped apartment! Perfect location if you want to visit Rebordosa and surroundings or if you prefer a more quiet place than Porto and not too far away from beaches. António is a great host, very helpful and friendly. We’ll come back next time.

We stayed 4 days in Ysabel's house, with the directions obtained it is it was intuitive to find the house that upon our arrival was as described. The space was more than good, the view of the river was a surplus, and we were able to comfortably make our visits to Porto and surroundings in the extra day there are all the amenities 10 minutes from the house. Ysabel and her partner were discreet as if they were not there but always ready for a smile and if we needed anything. Thank you for everything Tony Ileana and Vittorio

Very good .. I didn't know about it, I'm very satisfied and I highly recommend it

We had a lovely stay at this cottage located in the countryside in a relaxing place! José and Aurora were very attentive: tips, fruit and apple juice from the farm, thank you! Supermarket 5 minutes away, rivers for swimming a few minutes away, Amarante and Guimarães 45 minutes away, Porto 1h15.

Wonderful stay. It's the ideal place for both a stadia and a family stay. The hosts have always been very attentive and responsive. We adored and intend to return.

Hum... what can I say... I think the best is you experience by yourself. This place is amazing!! THE place to go if you like to be in a peaceful, stress free, beautiful and remarkable Airbnb in Douro. Don't think twice, just go. Thank you so much Maria for sharing your place with us and giving us the chance to enjoy it! cheers

Perfect house, excellent location

It was a great experience, loved how rustic and accommodating the place is. Our kids really enjoyed the nature, domestic animals and hosts Clarinda, Emanuel and Jose went above and beyond to help us feel comfy. We will definitely come back and recommend to our friends and family.

Cozy little cottage with a very quiet idyllic location.
