Family-friendly vacation rentals in Mesão Frio

Our stay at Luís's place was unbeatable. The place is very clean and tastefully decorated. It is not missing any detail and it is all as and how it is shown in the pictures. We enjoyed a lot of the pool and the good weather. Luís is a 10 host, very attentive, willing and friendly. We will definitely come back and do not hesitate to recommend it! Thank you very much for everything Luís.

Our second stay- lovely private home with great hosts.

Everything perfect, great quick host to answer and clarify all doubts, during the stay she was very attentive (booking in the restaurant to eat, giving us coffee capsules etc.). The house is equipped with everything you'll need. Fantastic pool. Very large farm, our dog also really enjoyed it. Highly recommended, if we come back to the area someday.

We had a great week together with our 2 children of 4 and almost 1. The facilities are Top, Manuela is always ready to help and the wine is fantastic. 2 very enthusiastic and sweet people who have made it a wonderful place. The hospitality made it even nicer. And Caramello was usually very cozy.

Everything is perfect. The house is as in the photos, attentive to our arrival, delicious breakfast. An area worth checking out. 100% recommended

Very clean accommodation, very relaxing place despite very short stay and close to Vila Real. Great hospitality from both Mr. Lorival and Mr. Coelho. We will come back I hope for a longer stay and I will recommend it to those around me.

Everything was great.

Thank you so much Aurora for hosting such a magnificent weekend getaway. The chalet was absolutely astounding, our perfect home away from home. We will absolutely be booking with you again!

Maria's house is beautiful, all granite and wood. The view is just sublime, the landscaped exterior is lovely too. We were remarkably well hosted by Sandra, an extremely kind and responsive young woman. We warmly recommend this listing.

Beautiful view and fantastic pool. House a little older but retains quality. Felipe was fantastic from the booking until the checkout time. I highly recommend!

Impeccable, large accommodation,clean, very nice view, we'll be back.

Susana’s place is an idyllic countryside retreat that is full of Portuguese tradition and authenticity. Susana can’t do enough for her guests, including sharing local produce from her garden. The villa is very well equipped and spacious, and the gardens and pool area are immaculate. There is access to the highlights of the Douro valley close by. We had a wonderful, relaxing break here and would fully recommend it.

Very spacious house, very well-equipped and very friendly, ideal for a stay with family and teenagers who can have their space. Dedicated parking at the house, nearby. Great welcome and cool drinks on arrival. For swimming, municipal swimming pool and river accessible by car (to the left of the bridge, opposite the picnic area)

The accommodation with Nuno and his wife was very relaxed and just right after a visit to Porto and Lisbon. The apartment was warm and cosy and the wine bar on the farm was very inviting! They gave us valuable tips about lamego and provided us with fresh rolls in the morning. We had a great time with very hospitable owners and would be happy to recommend it

Great place to spend a couple of nights, highly recommended

We spent 10 days at Quinta De Nadais in early August. The climate is perfect - hot during the day, cooler at night. Surrounded by an abundance of fruit trees and vegetables which you are free to eat, this quiet working farm offers a rustic retreat up in the hills above the river Douro. The large house is comfortable and spotless, with great facilities. The pool is surrounded by a lush lawn on the hillside with magnificent views over the valley. Adjacent to the property, and sharing the driveway, is another small property whose single inhabitant is pleasant and quiet. We were given a massive amount of fruit and veg from the farm which was delicious. Local supermarkets offer a good selection of fresh fish, meat and vegetables. We cooked at the property most nights and ate outside overlooking the pool and valley - hard to beat the view at any restaurant. Our host was wonderful, attentive and helpful, and a pleasure to deal with. A fantastic holiday. Thanks!

Ideal space for large groups. I went with family (mother, brothers, brother-in-law and sisters-in-law, plus nephews). Very large house with many rooms. The area of the bedrooms and bath house (1stfloor) is separate from the kitchen area and dining/living area (r/ch), here there is also the pool and garden area. The garden has a lot of shade. The house is still a little far from Régua to walk, but nearby there is a supermarket that can be reached on foot, if you feel like taking a walk uphill on the way back. The view of the Douro and vineyards is beautiful. Ms. Maria Antonia is so friendly and helpful.

After 3 days in Porto, on a whim we decided to spend a night in the Duoro Valley after many recommendations. We lucked out finding this beautiful Quinta for a one night stay and are so glad we did. It’s family run and they are very helpful and involved. It was cherry and loquat season when we arrived so we were able to pick straight from the tree and enjoy next to the pool along with a glass of wine and port that they make on the estate. The view is spectacular and the hospitality is outstanding. We highly recommend the wine tasting/tour and don’t miss the bread van every morning at 9:30 (you will know by the continuous horn at the gates) with fresh local bread and pastries you eat while overlooking the valley. Can’t wait to come back!

The GPS couldn't work out the location so we had to rely on our phone to get to the house. We missed the Wine tasting by the look of it as a result but our host welcomed us with an introduction and free taste of their wine and explanation of their lovely property. The visit EXCEEDED our expectation. The Duoro valley is really lovely and well worth a visit. The host and his family were very kind and attentive and I will be heading back there with other family members asap. THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.

Thank you Carol for our stay in your beautiful home ! Carol was an amazing host with great suggestions to local restaurants and amenities, the house was super clean and had everything needed for our stay. My only slight negative is that the 5th bedroom wasn’t really suitable for an adult as it was a low ceiling height loft bedroom with small beds and without a door. Again thank you for our stay and we’d love to come back again in the future!

We were very welcome by the D. Alcina, we didn't miss anything. Very well equipped farm.

Alfredo's place was fantastic! We'd actually say it's even better than the photos suggest. We found the trains to actually be a highlight, so not sure why other reviews said otherwise, they're really infrequent! Alfredo and Luis are brilliant hosts - communication is timely and helpful and they even gave us some extra tips for taxis etc. which were also incredibly helpful. Looking forward to visiting again!

Our stay at Cristina's went very well. We were in a real paradise. The location is wonderful with the bird 's-eye view of the Douro. Each outdoor space is very well laid out. The equipment in the house is very complete. Nela who greeted us is very available. She was there to pick up and take our luggage to the villa when we arrived. She had prepared us for the first morning a great breakfast. Cristina our host is very responsive with every request. We had a great week with our family. We recommend this place for a stay for families or groups of friends.

We enjoyed the stay very much. Very friendly and helpful guests. 5 star Check in. We were a group of 8 and we enjoyed the house being isolated because we didn't have to worry about the noise. However, the house is difficult to access having to pass through narrow, earthy streets. There was heating in the house, which was necessary since it is quite cold in the area when it's not sunny. Kitchen equipped with toaster, toaster, microwave, magic wand, refrigerators (oven didn't work). There was no tablecloth, only 4 singles that weren't enough for the 8. Bath towels, blankets, sheets and pillows were provided for 8. We really like the pool. It goes up to 2 meters and such of sufficient depth and great for everyone. Overall we had a good experience and recommend this home to anyone who wants to be more isolated from the city.
