Family-friendly vacation rentals in Viana do Castelo District

We would like to thank Architect Paulo Gomes for the sympathy and attention with which we were received in his magnificent villa in Monção, through the Airbnb platform. It was truly well spent days, in a fantastic space where there was nothing missing. The villa has excellent conditions, which exceeded our expectations, providing unique moments of comfort and leisure. As a constructive suggestion, and with all due respect, we believe it could be even more enjoyable if hosts made us slightly more at ease, avoiding going around the house while our group was present. Anyway, this is just a light recommendation, as everything else was just fantastic. We reiterate our thanks and congratulate us on the wonderful villa and hospitality.

The home and surrounding area are very special. Amazing hikes and waterfalls! Had a wonderful time.

This is a great place for anyone that wants to get outside of the city, my daughter and I had a lot of fun exploring the area.

Great experience I would definitely repeat, but more days... Very cozy house with everything you need No worries Simple check in and check out Staff always very nice, friendly, attentive, helpful

Loved it! A piece of wonderful peace in the middle of the mountains!! Will definitely get back!

It's an amazing place😍 to fully enjoy nature, sleep with the sound of the river in the background and wake up with the beautiful view of the trees. It's spectacular, the cabins are beautiful, we enjoyed the jacuzzi and the pool, Manuela is a wonderful host, attentive, very kind and close, we felt right at home. I'll definitely repeat the experience.

Antonio's house is an exceptional place to enjoy a quiet atmosphere, in the middle of nature in an original and open design house. Antonio was attentive at all times and gave us very good recommendations to enjoy the surrounding villages. The house is very close to beach areas and villages in a few minutes by car.

We had a pleasant stay with my family and friends in this beautiful house. The good weather, the large swimming pool, the cleanliness and shops nearby make this place available as well as the kindness of Mrs. Teresa Costa who welcomed us very warmly, very smiling and available for anything. We thank Mrs. Teresa again for everything and let her see you soon for a future reservation.

Peaceful and clean place with a unique location.

Dear Ana, Thank you for a great vacation with you. You are very nice and helpful. The house is like a little oasis in the north of Portugal. It fully complies with the description and is completely sufficient for two people. We highly recommend the property. Until we'll definitely be back soon. Stefan

Wonderful apartment, right in the center of Monção with all the amenities you need.

Ideal place to relax and contemplate nature.

Fantastic place, so very well equipped and great location. We loved it here and would love to stay again. We had a problem with the boiler when we arrived and Marta was quick To get it working again. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Perfect place for a quiet rural holiday. The house has a lot of charm mixing old with new. The kitchen was well equipped and we ate in every night. It has a large, pretty garden with citrus trees. It is within easy distance of many historical towns as well as a national park. We did not meet Céu but she responded very quickly to any requests we had. We would have no hesitation in staying there again.

everything perfect, very quiet village and in the middle of nature

Bonjour We stayed in August 2024. We were more than welcomed! Rosalina brought us small dishes throughout the stay, offered to clean and linens during the stay, always available, always smiling. The place is quiet, a car is mandatory but that's exactly what we were looking for. The house is well equipped and despite the absence of air conditioning in the middle of August (it was sometimes 40 degrees) we did not suffer at all from the heat. The view is beautiful. The road passes in front of the house, but there aren't many vehicles passing through it. We slept well. 2 important points: Rosalina only speaks Portuguese, so you have to Google trad And the house is shared in 2 (ground floor and 1st floor) so tranquility can depend on your neighbors (no worries for us on this side) In short, our vacation went very well in part thanks to Rosalina, whom we sincerely thank.

Paul and Elisabete were very welcoming and responsive. The small apartment was perfect for the few days we spent as a couple. The quinta is in an idyllic environment! Thank you

We had a great time in Afife and enjoyed our stay at Joaos place. The location was very quiet (except the Honda shop across the street in the daytime) and Afife has not much to offer, which was okay for us but should be known in advance if you plan on eating outside. Porto is great to be reached by train and the beach is very close. With 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms there’s enough space for a big group and everything was very comfortable. The pool was open already and was cleaned during our stay. The only thing which I would point out on the negative side is that when we arrived it smelled a bit mouldy, probably due to the rainy weather and the fact that 3 of the bathrooms don’t have windows. The staircase to the lower part of the house is very steep. That’s a fact you should know when travelling with small kids. Joao was perfect to contact and always responded quickly whenever there were any questions. Thanks for having us. We would totally recommend to stay at his place.

We had a wonderful stay with Stefan and Lilian. The sweetest hosts! The house and the place are even more beautiful in reality than in the pictures. A perfect place to slow down. The hosts grow the most delicious vegetables, which you can buy from them. The warmest recommendations from here.

I spent one night at the home of Filomena with three friends and it was amazing. It has a double bed and a large sofa bed (without separation, it is ideal for groups of friends or families), kitchen equipped with hob and all utensils, barbecue, and the best part of all - the pool! It is a great pool and it was exclusive to us, with lots of privacy, lawn with loungers, a treat. Filomena was very considerate and the husband Francisco who received us as well. It was a memorable experience and I recommend 100%.

Thank you in advance for all the availability of the hosts, they were very friendly and always helpful. The house was excellent both in terms of cleanliness and with all the things that are available for a great stay. The surroundings of the house are super quiet and perfect for relaxing. Outside spaces are fantastic and very well maintained. I will certainly come back. Thank you very much

Beautiful property with even more beautiful grounds! Eusebio's place is very peaceful, with a big pool, flat yard, and beautiful plants everywhere! The home was perfect for our family of 3. We loved exploring this remote area, as well as driving to Viana do Castelo to shop and eat.

Sandra and Bia welcomed us into their lovely home, filled with antique furniture and beautifully embroiderered/ crocheted decor. We enjoyed a spectacular view of Lindoso castle, mountains and valleys, swifts, finches and the odd golden eagle circling above. At night we saw starry starry skies. If you like to cook there is everything you need in the indoor and outdoor BBQ area. We liked the pool and the outside dining area being close together meaning the family could share the space together. This does not mean the outdoor space is small, just well thought out. The house is cool, particularly the downstairs bedrooms. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. Bread is delivered daily, bread eggs, homemade jam, cheese and a bottle of Vinho Verde await you on arrival. More eggs and jam will be provided - you just have to ask. Sandra and Bia kindly laundered our clothes (same day service). This is our favourite AirBnB for cleanliness, attention to detail and setting.

The place was very nice, clean, quiet and spacious. The outdoor area was also incredibly peaceful and beautiful. We enjoyed having BBQ. The host was very welcoming and super helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay!
