Vacation rentals in Vilvestre

We enjoyed our visit with our family over New Year for three nights. Luis was a very helpful host and always responded quickly to any questions. We appreciated the freshly baked cake on arrival and on the second morning some treats from the bakery. We particularly enjoyed seeing the fireworks from the exclusive resort of the opposite side of the river for New Year. We popped open a bottle of bubbles to share on the rooftop terrace with a fabulous view at midnight. Great atmosphere. Would be fun to return during the summer months to enjoy the lovely pool.

Where to begin. We chose Jesse’s place to begin our family trip to Portugal and it set the tone in all the right ways. From the recommendations to take a tour with Nuno & Grapeland to dinner cooked by the neighbors, we didn’t want to leave. Jesse & his neighbors even helped us out of a ‘rite of passage’ moment when we got our car a bit stuck on a vineyard road during the nationwide power outage. We truly hope to return one day and the memories of this trip will last us a lifetime. The photos will never do the place justice as it consistently took our breath away.

Tal e qual como nas fotos! Perfeita para passar uns dias com um grupo de amigos ou família. A casa fica numa Aldeia muito sossegada e bastante simpática para os seus visitantes. Casa muito bem equipada com tudo o que é necessário, incluindo produtos de limpeza, utensílios de cozinha, toalhas de banho , entre outros. O jacuzzi surpreendeu pela positiva, já que a temperatura da água estava perfeita. Todas as manhãs tinhamos pão fresco deixado na porta para o Pequeno-almoço, o que agradecemos imenso. A Anfitriã esteve sempre disponível por mensagens. Resumindo, estava tudo perfeito e contamos voltar brevemente. ☺️

This was the most magical place for our family of five. I now want to come back and try all of Miguel’s other properties. A true highlight was taking advantage of the connections to local vendors that come with the hosts recommendations. Private dinner at the Pinta Lounge was amazing . I said to my husband at one point , “ I am so happy I could cry” - that sums up this cottage.

La estancia ha sido perfecta, todo estaba correcto y fiel a las fotos y descripción. Lugar perfecto para desconectar y descansar. Punto a favor, que a nuestra llegada esta la casa calentita y con un detalle para nosotros. Repetiremos !! Gracias.

Very nice and cozy place. Lots of space and a very peacful retreat. A little highlight were the donkeys lurking at us while sitting in the garden. Ricardo was very friendly and helpful. Would come again!

Excelente hospedagem. O apartamento é muito confortável, com todos os equipamentos necessários. Excelente localização, a poucos minutos de caminhada do centro histórico, de mercados e de bons restaurantes (destaque para a pizzaria Bella Ciao). Fácil para estacionar em frente ao apartamento ou bem próximo, na rua principal. A recepção foi excelente, a Cati foi muito acolhedora e simpática, nos mostrou todo o local e nos deu dicas sobre a cidade, além de ter deixado pão, manteiga, leite, suco e diversos outros produtos disponíveis para a nossa estadia. Obrigado!!! Certamente será a nossa escolha, se voltarmos a Ciudad Rodrigo.

Luisa is a great host: very kind and friendly! She has surprised us with a rich breakfast full of local veggies from the garden and traditional bread from the region. Her suggestions have also helped us to come with a road trip plan for the next day. Very picturesque scenery, great views, comfortable, thoughtful and cozy house with modern equipment and stylish furniture. Everything was clean and functioned amazingly. We were more than satisfied! If we come back to Douro Valley again, we'd definitely make a stop there again!

Das Appartment von Humberto hat uns sehr gefallen und war für uns zur Hälfte unseres Portugalurlaubs genau die richtige Wahl um uns etwas zu entspannen. Die Lage besticht mit einer atemberaubenden Sicht auf die Serra da Estrela und es war sehr ruhig. Klare Empfehlung von uns.
