Vacation rentals in Guarda District

House as described, very friendly hosts and very close to the Serra da Estrela. Top

One of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. Follow Mario's advice and you will have an amazing time (ask if you can use the kayak!) Mario's son learned me a lot about music, and Mario himself made some fantastic breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thanks for everything, and hopefully we will meet again.

We loved our stay at this charming farm! The beauty and tranquility of this place is beyond words. The houses on the farm are beautifully decorated and the host was super welcoming. The highlight of our stay was definitely the chance to disconnect from daily life and simply enjoy nature. We visited the nearby villages and hiked to the top of the Serra da Estrela, which was an unforgettable experience. We spent our days exploring the vast lands and admiring the stunning views of the surrounding countryside. In the evenings, we kicked back in the hammocks, enjoying the mountain breeze and the sound of birds chirping in the distance. The local cheese was a real treat, it was one of the tastiest cheeses I've ever had! All in all, our stay at this farm was an experience we will never forget. We returned home feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. I would highly recommend this farm to anyone looking for a natural getaway. Thank you so much for sharing your little slice of paradise with us!

Quinta da Xandica, located just outside of Valença do Douro village, was a fantastic, and unique experience. It’s rare these days to find an Airbnb hosted by a “real” (boots on the ground) host who is not only there to share local knowledge and accommodates your needs, but literally who also welcomes you in to the ACTUAL family home. It reminded me of a traditional bed and breakfast, in all of the best ways. (Including a lovely breakfast in a dining room!!!) The Quinta was home to Matilde”s great grandfather, and is shared today with her grandmother and father (three generations). It’s a working farm, and an all around charming, beautiful place. Even during our unseasonably rainy visit, the grounds and area was stunning. Practically speaking, the bed was comfortable & the water hot. Dinner made by Matilde was a reasonably priced and delicious with estate wine. We also thoroughly interaction with other guests, the chipped dog, “Bill”, and access to the surrounding area. A treasure!

First of all extol the space, extraordinary and spacious beds. According to the sympathetic and attentive form of the owner really was the touch of excellence. Thanks for everything!

We spent a week and it was better than we expected. The house has everything you need, it has everything and it's beautiful. The tranquility helps you disconnect completely and the rest is total. A real wonder!!!!! 100% recommended. Super friendly and helpful hosts. Many thanks from the heart...

We had a great time at the tiny house. Yes, there were 1-2 quirks, but this is expected. Every place has its quirks, but here, everything was clearly communicated by the host, which we greatly value. We came to watch the Perseid meteor shower and had a nice experience. However, the light pollution was higher than expected due to local festivities using sky laser projectors. These powerful lasers create bright beams visible from afar. The previous night, while we were at another place, was even worse with two villages using projectors, which seems to be common here. Unfortunately, this was not pleasant for us, and we hope it was just bad timing. Everything else was wonderful—the surrounding nature was serene, with lush trees and a variety of birds adding to the charm. We enjoyed breathtaking sunsets and sunrises that made our stay memorable. The host was exceptional, preparing a delicious breakfast each morning and always being kind and helpful.

Nice house for quite and chill holidays Barbara is an excellent host. We very enjoyed our stay
