Villa vacation rentals in Gulpilhares

We enjoyed this beautiful house. Luís was very friendly and helpful. Hospitality is clearly a top priority. The house has all the amenities and very comfortable. Even in the fridge everything was ready and on arrival there were cookies with a mini bottle of pumpkin liqueur. The only thing that was a little missing was something of a garden and more pleasant garden furniture. Furthermore, super location. The convenience of supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and other amenities are all within a fifteen-minute drive. Whether you're going to Arouca or Vale de Cambra.

Amazing hosts! Patricia speaks English and even though her dad does not, he went out of his way to connect through many kind acts. He would bring baked goodies every morning and several times drove us places, including back from the airport when we returned our car. They also left us lots of food, including milk, eggs from their hens, produce from their garden, water, wine, beer, cookies, cheese, prosciutto etc. Before buying groceries, I would check in to see what they have stocked you with. A few things to note: the 2nd bathroom is only a half bathroom with toilet, no shower; the place is compact, particularly for 3 people, and the second room does not have a window; the air conditioning is only in the living room, which might matter in summer (but it’s a stone house so keeps relatively cool). Lastly, the place is 7 mins walk to the metro and a further 15 mins to the historic centre. Patricia gave us 3 metro cards, to be refilled. Tip: it’s hilly;use bus to go from river to metro

We spent a lovely nine days at Antonio’s place.

Luisa was very nice, the house is very comfortable for families and is fully equipped. It is easy to get there by vehicle.

Paulo's place is absolutely stunning. It is even more beautiful in real than on the photos. The kitchen is unique and it is great to spend time there. The whole house is furnished with traditional Portuguese furniture and decorated with sublime taste. The bathrooms are amazing! A real experience and highly recommended.

Very clean, located right in the historic district. Comfortable bed, and private patio area to eat outside. JP is responsive and helpful!

Beautiful accommodation and very friendly hosts!

We felt at home and had a great time at Rui's place. There are a number of good bakeries and grocery shops around. The bus stop is 5min walk.

Floriane and Christophe's property was the perfect setting for our extended family group. We were a party of 10 spanning three generations and the split of individual apartments ensured we didn't get in each other's way. The air-conditioned apartments were tastefully decorated, well-equipped and extremely comfortable. All fixtures and fittings were new and each apartment was spotlessly clean on arrival. The large pool is surrounded by a beautifully established garden with towering cactuses and a winding wisteria. The outside dining area accommodated everyone and came complete with two BBQs. A large supermarket is located within a short drive, as is a train station with direct links to central Porto. The city and the airport are also accessible by car within 40 minutes. The inland town of Amarante is also well worth a visit. In summary, Floriane and Christophe were excellent hosts with a delightful property. We hope to return soon.

The house was perfectly set up for our family! Our family of 8 adults (three married couples, and one 83 year old and one single adult) found the house to be exactly what we needed. My husband and I took the top floor with his mom. Our three sons and their two wives shared the bottom floor. The five bedrooms were perfect for us and the three full bathrooms made mornings easier. The house offered lots of space for us to hang out together, but we were so busy enjoying the city of Porto, that we did not spend much time in the home. The outdoor patio was lovely! There were towels on each bed for us, the kitchen had plenty of plates, glasses, some cleaning supplies and basics (tea, sugar, salt, etc.). There is a grocery store around the corner, which was very convenient. Host was quick to respond to our questions about the area and the home, and was flexible when we arrived later than expected about meeting us. It all worked out perfectly for our family.

The Villa was clean, super spacious and equipped with everything you might need. Just a 2 min walk from the beach, with a bakery and some restaurants also close by. Everything worked out just perfect and we had no complaints and Clara responded to messages relatively quickly. We really enjoyed the Villa and our stay. The only issue was communicating with the person who we had to contact when we needed something once we stayed at the Villa, response to our questions was usually late.

Daniel and Katrina are already good friends. They are good people, easy to communicate and very helpful. They were impeccable in welcoming my family into their home. I highly recommend them!

Had a fantastic stay at the house, it’s absolutely huge, the photos don’t do it justice. Very good value for money if travelling with a big group. The Uber from the airport dropped us right outside so it was very easy to find, also very easy to make our way into town either on foot or by Uber. The host kindly allowed us to check in early and kept communication open through the booking process which was really helpful. Would stay again!

This place is beautiful, with amazing breakfast of eggs, bacon, croissants, fruit, yoghurt, cereal, bread, and lots of other treats. It was a real highlight at a time flexible to you. The gardens and surrounds are stunning as well as the pool & terrace. We stayed as a group of 10 mid 40s ladies and had a fab time.. just not long enough. The breakfast staff were lovely. The rooms with all their ensuite bathrooms were brilliant and the sound insulation was impressive. The host was also very informative and responsive. Don't hesitate just book it!

Lovely spacious accommodation, with character. 20 mins walk to Old Town. Communication with host was prompt.

Fantastic property in a great location just outside the city centre. The hosts were flexible and responsive too. Thank you to Carlos and the team for making us feel so welcome. Highly recommend!

Amazing house! Perfectly equipped and great outdoor space with breathtaking view on the river

superb location in the hinterland of porto , an exceptional view of the setting sun and the sea

We are very happy with the accommodation! From the warm welcome to the attention to detail, everything contributed to a comfortable and peaceful stay. The space is cozy, larger than we thought, well maintained and with a wonderful view, ideal for relaxing after a day full of adventures. An experience we certainly want to repeat! 🏡✨

Had a great time in Marie’s place. She welcomed us really well sharing local places we could go to to shop or eat, and recommendation for Porto. Very easy to check in and flexible which was great. The house is very big with all amenities, and a very nice area by the swimming pool. Thanks again !

From start to finish the experience was amazing, photos were exactly how the Airbnb was and location was perfect, nice and quiet and completely private! I would highly recommend and hopefully will be back in the future!!

A truly amazing house overlooking the sea. Super beautifully decorated and all very neat. Ana was always very friendly and attentive. Pretty flexible at checkout. Recording now in the summer, no doubt! So we can enjoy the amazing pool.
