This was hands-down my favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed at, it completely surpassed my expectations. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and every part of the experience was designed to help you relax. The amenities were incredible we enjoyed the spa, which was amazing, and the restaurants served amazing food and wine. The service was truly exceptional. Every staff member made us feel so pampered and a special shoutout to Sara, who went above and beyond. We can’t wait to come back this place set a new standard for what a perfect hotel stay should be.

Our stay was truly unforgettable. The breathtaking views, elegant and modern rooms, exquisite food, relaxing spa, and a wide range of activities and amenities created the perfect setting—but what made it truly special was the staff. Thoughtful, warm, and genuinely caring, they delivered 5-star service in every detail. A heartfelt thank you to Mariana, Márcio, and Paolo for making us feel not just welcomed, but truly at home. A must when visiting the Douro Valley!

We traveled all the way from Palm Beach, Florida to experience the buzz about Quinta da Vacaria and from the very first moment we arrived it left us absolutely speechless. I’ve been lucky enough to travel all over the world and nothing comes close to this place. The views are jaw-dropping, the design and architecture flawless, and every inch of the property shows a level of quality that is second to none. The private dining was a highlight of the trip — a 12 course Michelin star experience that was absolute perfection. The spa was immaculate, and the infinity pool overlooking the vineyards felt like stepping into a movie. But what truly makes Quinta da Vacaria unforgettable is the staff. They are beyond talented, passionate, and make you feel like the most important guest in the world. Every interaction carried so much pride in giving us an experience we will never forget. This is not just a hotel, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Without hesitation this is a 10/10 and sits at the very top of all my travels.

⸻ The hotel is beautiful, with immaculate grounds, stunning views and a very warm welcome. Staff are mostly excellent, especially Jonny at the bar. Breakfast is fantastic with lots of fresh options, delicious cakes and great coffee. The spa is calm and not overcrowded, and the port tasting was a real highlight thanks to a knowledgeable sommelier. However, several things let our stay down. The Michelin-starred restaurant had no vegetarian option, and the other restaurant was fully booked, so for a birthday stay we ended up eating in the bar. The bar is small and doubles as a waiting room, making it crowded and noisy, with few other indoor spaces to relax. There were no spa treatments available and this was not communicated in advance. My partner’s birthday was barely acknowledged, and a cake arrived the day after the dinner when it was too late. Service was inconsistent, from an hours wait for a cheese board during the tasting experience to tea and coffee not being replenished in our room. The room itself was lovely with great views, but the shower had poor water pressure when running hot and the outdoor bath was unusable because of this plus an accumulation of outdoor debris. Overall, we enjoyed aspects of our stay, but it fell short of delivering the exceptional experience promised. If you want beautiful surroundings, friendly staff and a wine experience, it can be a good choice, but book everything well in advance and manage your expectations.
