We spent a wonderful week in this lovely villa in August. Very well equipped and comfortable, and in a great location to explore the area - but note the roads are very windy and hilly so it can take a while to get places! The swimming pool is great with a fantastic view, and we enjoyed taking the kayaks out on the river. The owner Maria gave us some good tips on places to visit and made us very welcome. Thank you for your hospitality :)

Personal attention; a welcoming and heartfelt visit
This is a very proud family property, clean and in a beautiful location on the Douro River. The owners are cheerful and interactive and very helpful. We loved our stay here. We swam, helped pick grapes, and my husband even had the opportunity to stomp them to make family wine.

A week in Portugal
We had a great week staying at this property by the river. It overlooks the river and you can use the kayaks. There’s a balcony and a pool. Being on the side of the valley makes parking a bit tricky. Maria was helpful, suggested places to eat and fixed the coffee machine straight away.

Little cottage in the hills
This is a very unique property nestled in the hills just above the Douro River. Very private, quiet and peaceful. Our host Maria Eugenia, was very welcoming and accommodating. The pool was pristine and access to the river a bonus! Would stay here again. Highly recommend.

Lovely spot on the Douro
Had a great time at Casa de Gondomil, which has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Great views, well equipped and with use of canoes to have fun on the river. The pool is fine for a cooling dip. We would love to return in the future. Maria Eugenia and Jose are great hosts.

We only had 2 days here but wished we could stay longer. Maria welcomed us warmly and gave us a great restaurant recommendation for dinner. The accommodation was spotless and breakfast on the balcony overlooking the river was a highlight. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Casa de Gondomil. We checked in late, but that was no problem for the owners. We were warmly welcomed! The nature is beautiful, and from the balcony, you have a stunning view of the Douro! The pool is delightful. A great place for those who love peace and quiet, and an excellent base for trips to Porto and Peso da Régua. Highly recommended!

Wunderbares Haus am Douro
Das gepflegte kleine Haus am steilen Hang des Douro hat uns sehr gut gefallen! Die Lage am Terrassengarten mit Zitrusfrüchten mit toller Aussicht ist sehr schön und ruhig gelegen! Die Küche ist funktional aber ausreichend ausgestattet. Bei unserem Besuch waren die Herdplatten nicht eben, so dass zum selberkochen etwas Kreativität gefragt war. Ein kleiner Trick für die Koffer: unten stehen lassen und durch die Doppelfenster ebenerdig hineinheben!
