House vacation rentals in Minho

This place is an absolute gem. It is one of the nicest places we found in Portugal. The house is located in a small vineyard. Beds were comfortable. There’s a wood fired barbeque a great outdoor covered area and a beautiful infinity pool. Every morning we had fresh bread delivered to our doorstep. We picked lemons and oranges from around the house and had the host deliver us fruit. It was beautiful and quiet. The only negative is that we enjoy the place so much we did not visit any of the surrounding areas😊. If we had any questions, the host was response almost immediately with suggestions for places to go restaurants, markets. We had an excellent day and would return and stay there again anytime. It is definitely a 10 out of 10 definitely highly recommended.

Rafael's place is absolutely gorgeous! On arrival, he gave us a warm tour and shared the property's history—fascinating. It's beautifully restored, surrounded by trees offering total privacy. His dad keeps bees nearby (we could’ve visited) and grows cherries, lemons, and oranges—he encouraged us to help ourselves, and they were delicious. The property was perfect for two, with a well-appointed bathroom, living area, and a private pool—compact but fits four comfortably. Rafael was super attentive and responsive, a brilliant host who clearly takes pride in the place. A few minor notes: the pool has no cover or hoover, so needs a quick skim due to nearby trees (his dad cleans it regularly); there are only 3 loungers and 2 extra chairs at the front; and indoor seating isn’t the comfiest for four, with 2 chairs being wicker which differs from the listing. These aren’t real negatives—just things to note. Amazing value and we’d love to return when we're back in the area!

We were quite shocked at how beautiful Paulo’s farm is. My wife and I were more than pleasantly surprised as how expectations were well exceeded. Paulo’s home is on the property but up the hill away from the rental. The pool and pool house are near their house but it still feels very private and comfortable. Paulo was extremely accommodating, gave great recommendations and make us feel more like his personal guests rather than just a normal rental. He checked in occasionally via message to see if we had everything we needed. It was very clear that great pride in the rental and farm was taken. Everything seemed well thought out, and we really appreciated the care the was taken in making us feel special and at him. It was by far the best rental experience we’ve had over the years.

Beautiful home with amazing views. Comfortable, well designed, recently constructed and super clean. The kitchen is well stocked for meal preparation. There are spectacular views over the lake from almost every room. The house stayed cool during the warm May weather; no air-conditioning was needed. The Host Mari provided helpful directions (I recommend using map coordinates) and recommendations for grocery store and restaurants. There are two access roads to the house from N-554; we found it easiest to arrive from the north and depart via the south access road. The neighborhood is quiet and people were friendly. We look forward to returning!

We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful home! It’s spacious, stylish, and absolutely perfect for a large group. The layout is ideal with bedrooms upstairs and downstairs feels like a dedicated hosting space, perfect for socialising, gathering, a nice big hot tub!!!! The views are truly spectacular we enjoyed barbecuing while overlooking the vineyards, which felt like something out of a dream. It’s even more stunning in real life than in the photos (which is saying a lot!). The hostess was absolutely lovely so friendly and helpful. She responded promptly to every request and made us feel so welcome throughout our stay. I genuinely can’t fault this place. If I could, I’d return every weekend! It’s ideal for groups of friends, families. The house is incredibly well-suited for the Douro Valley and ticks every box. Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a wonderful stay! Would 101% recommend!

Vielen lieben Dank, Rita & João! Rechtzeitig zur Ankunft in Porto erhielten wir eine detaillierte Wegbeschreibung zu den Gegebenheiten vor Ort. Wir wurden äußerst freundlich im Anwesen empfangen und erhielten die Schlüssel. Das Anwesen entspricht exakt den Bildern und es mangelte uns, während des Aufenthalts in Ventosa, an nichts. Wir haben die freie Zeit sehr genossen!

Huset levede fuldt ud op til billederne. Beliggenheden er helt fantastisk, fredelig og med uforlignelig udsigt til Douro, og sejladsen på floden og det gamle tog, der kører på modsatte bred. Servicen fra Gabriella og Sephi var helt enestående, vi blev guidet op ad den stejle vej til huset første gang af Gabriella. Fin service, når man bor i et fladt land som Danmark. Og Sephi forklarede os om sin vingård fra terrassen med den allerbedste udsigt til Douro. Vi satte meget pris på begge værters hjælpsomhed.

This was a wonderful Airbnb with a great location. The layout of the house was very nice, with thoughtful design woven in throughout. The location was very convenient for walking by foot to restaurants or visiting the downtown. I wish I could have stayed longer :)!

No sabría por dónde empezar; todo ha sido fantástico. La casa, como en casa, o incluso mejor porque las vistas, paz, tranquilidad, entorno y calma… top! La casa es ideal; tiene todas las comodidades, es para estar en ella y disfrutarla, cada habitación súper bien equipada, los baños con todo lo necesario, la cocina súper equipada. No faltaba detalle, cualquier cosa que se nos ocurrió allí estaba. Fuimos un grupo de 7 primas y solo salimos para hacer una visita a un pueblo de al lado. Llevamos comida, cocinamos, disfrutamos del súper salón y de las vistas, de la naturaleza, del jardín, de las vistas. Cualquier consulta o duda Marta contestó súper rápido. Estuvo muy atenta y nos ayudó en todo momento. La limpieza y comodidades top. Es que no le he encontrado ni un solo pero. La recomienda sin duda y nosotras repetiremos! Un 10!

we hebben genoten van deze prachtige locatie, wat een plaatje. Daniela was erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Super host.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in der Unterkunft von Antonio! Das Haus liegt in einem ruhigen Ort inmitten schöner Natur – perfekt zum Abschalten. Alles war sehr sauber und modern eingerichtet, mit einem praktischen Anbau inklusive eigenem Bad. Das WLAN war stabil und schnell. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir die freundliche Art von Antonio per Telefon und des Vaters vor Ort – er war jederzeit ansprechbar und hat uns sogar schnell geholfen, als es durch das Wetter einen kurzen Stromausfall gab. Eine klare Empfehlung!

An amazing house in an amazing place. Modern, clean, quiet and superbly equipped. Surrounded by terraced vines with world class views of the Ribeira Sacra and the Rio Miño. We loved our short stay here. It was tranquil but we also had one amazing lightning storm to experience. You can just sit and relax or use it as a base to explore. Best to get all your supplies before you get there as there is nothing in Belesar. Or you can pop into Chantada like we did. Great communication with Jose as well. A great stay

El alojamiento es fantástico. Disfrutamos de unos días excelentes, y lamentamos no poder quedarnos más días. El lugar es precioso, al lado del río, la tranquilidad se agradece, y también hay muchas posibles actividades a realizar. Responde perfectamente a las fotos que están publicadas. Hasta diríamos que el natural, es incluso mejor. La comunicación con los anfitriones ha sido muy fluida y siempre han estado pendientes de cualquier detalle o necesidad que pudiésemos tener. Sin ninguna duda, muy recomendable. Gracias, Cristina y José!

We’ve had a wonderful time in this beautiful apartment. Stunning views, nice pool and Pedro is the best Airbnb host you can get. Would love to come back here some day.

Desde a casa absolutamente extraordinária , à paisagem que parece vinda de um filme, ao senhor Manuel que nos deixou sem palavras de tão amigável e querido que é. Não há melhor sítio que este para descansar, e saímos a pensar no momento de voltar. As fotografias não fazem juz ao local, de todo… Casa muito espaçosa, ficámos num T1 e sobrou imenso espaço, bem decorada, muito moderna, com um espaço exterior incrível, é simplesmente mágico ir à varanda e só ouvirmos os passarinhos. Obrigada Lúcia e obrigada ao senhor Manuel, que tornou esta estadia fantástica e a desejar o regresso!

heel fijn verblijf gehad. fantastisch uitzicht over de rivier de Douro en de overkant van Porto. daarnaast is de ruimte heel fijn, en de plunge pool heerlijk om in af te koelen na een flinke wandeling op warme dagen. ik had veel contact met Carolina. ze is super vriendelijk en reageert ontzettend snel. ze had leuke restaurant tips voor ons! aanrader om hier te verblijven +

Es un lugar paradisiaco. Con un entorno natural que nos encantó. Super tranquilo aunque a 10 minutos está todo lo que se pudiera pedir. Naturaleza desbordante para las personas que como nosotros disfrutamos de ese tipo de alojamiento. Sin duda volveríamos porque nos gustó mucho y es importante también los buenos anfitriones que fueron Graciela y su esposo. Sin dudas todo fue muy satisfactorio. Más de lo que esperábamos!!

De accommodatie is geweldig, het uitzicht is adembenemend mooi. Heerlijke bedden, uitgebreide keuken De ontvangst was hartelijk en gastvrij. Maria is een sympathieke, vriendelijke gastvrouw. Als verwelkoming stonden een wiite en rode huisgemaakte wijn klaar. Daarna kregen we nog heerlijke sinaasappels en grapefruit. Het terras en de tuin zijn werkelijk heerlijk om tot rust te komen. Maria zelf woont in het naast gelegen huis. Zij respecteert je privacy. Kortom, heerlijk. Dank Maria voor een onvergetelijk verblijf.

we had a great time, the house is wonderful! thank you!

Encantado con la propiedad y con Javier. Una Casita excelente para pasar unos dias de paz y calma, para mi ha sido el lugar perfecto para volver a conectar con la naturaleza y con uno mismo!. las vistas son preciosas, los desayunos obervando como bahia de Vigo se desperezaba y las cenas al atardecer maravillosas! Javier un Excelente anfitrión siempre atento y amable y listo para ayudar con cualquier duda o pregunta. Sin duda regresaré para volver a reencontrame conmigo y con la naturaleza.

Wir waren als Paar mit einem kleinen Hund 6 Nächte in Aidas Unterkunft. Aida ist eine tolle Gastgeberin und war immer für uns erreichbar. Das Haus hat Charme und eine tolle Aussicht. Wir hätten das Haus allerdings zwei Tage weniger gebucht, wenn wir vorab gewusst hätten, dass an den letzten beiden Tagen noch handwerkliche Tätigkeiten an ihrem Nachbarhaus (im Besitz der Familie) durchgeführt werden. Ansonsten ist es eine tolle ruhige Oase, um herunterzukommen und die Natur zu genießen. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Anfitrião super simpático e acessível. Sempre disponível para ajudar. O espaço da casa é super acolhedor, ótimo para relaxar e usufruir da natureza. Aconselhamos a 100%!

The place is stunning absolutely immaculate and the hosts were extremely accommodating thank you so much for hosting us in this memorable location!

We had an amazing stay! The location is beautiful & so peaceful. Close enough to Porto, while providing a nice escape from the busy city. Francisca was responsive and helpful throughout our stay, even extending herself to a few surprises that made our stay extra special. I will miss having breakfast outside with the beautiful view of the valley neighborhood. Hope to have an opportunity to visit again. Would recommend to anyone visiting Portugal!
