Monthly Rentals in Vale de Mendiz

The accommodation was spotlessly clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. We were welcomed on our arrival and were grateful for the arrival package of fruit and bread. We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony overlooking the river. Are only regret is that we only stayed for two nights, we will be back and we will stay longer!

One of the highlights was dinner prepared by Jet and Ronald. I highly recommend this as part of the experience. We shared an amazing meal with other guests, and there was a lot of info from Ron about the local wines from the region. I missed out on Jet’s breakfast, but heard amazing things from the other guests in another studio at the property. Great place and great people.

This place was perfect for what we needed. So much so that we added an extra night. The direct view from the terrace is worth the trip (Douro Valley). In addition, José gave us a nice wine tasting suggestion (5 minutes from the accommodation) where the advice and wines were perfect. We would recommend this listing without hesitation

The chalet was beautifully set up with all necessary items - plus welcoming bonuses, including homemade breads and butter, complementing the breakfast items. We met Luisa on arrival (we were early - which was not a problem for her) and were introduced to the unit - and then shared a thoroughly enjoyable longer chat about our families, lives, and so on; later we met Mario. Our unit was one of two in the chalet, both with private entrances, but usefully with an interconnecting door should a larger group want to stay. Because there were two units, there was naturally some normal living noise (conversation, moving about etc), as you’d expect in that configuration, but not excessive. A minor issue over parking with the other visitors was sorted out efficiently and effectively, which characterized the professional way this property is managed. But a warning: Apple Maps sent us on what was probably the shortest route once at Alijo, but the ‘road’ became so very narrow, we didn’t fit!
