"Clean friendly and easy"

"It’s all about the location at the top of a mountain overlooking a jewel box of a church. This grand hotel was built in the early 1900’s. It has been renovated but is definitely an older property. Room was comfortable and the view was AMAZING. Breakfast was wonderful. "

"I stayed in this fabulous chocolate hotel in early October when I was walking on the Camino way. After a 10 mile day of walking, it was wonderful to get there and berated with a wine spritzer with chocolate shavings, delicious chocolate bar, and a beautiful hotel. The breakfast was included and was absolutely fabulous. I highly recommend this place. "

"We have a large family consisting of married couples and some with children and so we offered it is an open house to arrive and depart when you want over the three weeks that we hired the property in August and it did not disappoint. A 50 minute taxi ride from Porto we spent the first two weeks just using Ubers to get into Viana which is about a 10 minute drive away and the amazing beaches which straddle each side of the town, the final week we did hire a car. The property is immense with beautiful shaded areas to relax and read in and fruit orchards , our Grandsons especially enjoyed picking the oranges and making orange juice , it even has a mini football pitch . The kitchen is really well stocked and we loved cooking most nights and BBQ the amazing range of fresh fish you will find in the local supermarkets. My treat every morning was walking over to the local village which took just over 20 mins and buying the freshest breads and cakes as well as enjoying a fab coffee. The swimming pool was great fun and is not deep so really safe for young children and is fed by a complex of fresh waterpipes and features. Bedrooms are basic as you would expect in a old stone built house but everything was clean and working , I even had my own office to do some work I needed to do. The owner Paulo spoke great English and was really helpful with anything we needed , to sum up we had an amazing family holiday in an undiscovered part of Europe."

"My wife, our two young boys and I, had the most fabulous stay at Casa Sao Joao. We rented the left wing apartment of the house, overlooking the pool. Our rooms were spacious and comfortable, with ice cold a/c for the hot days, of which there were many! The manor house is set in the most sumptuous grounds, with lovely shady vine tunnels surrounding the pool, leading to deeper depths of the garden and many flowers in bloom. The pool was a delight. Perfect to spend the day by or taking an evening dip after a hot day exploring attractions. Joao and Mafalda, the hosts, deserve a special mention as their hospitality was really touching. We were truly welcomed, like a part of their family. So much so we enjoyed the best Shrimp salad, prepared by Mafalda and were serenaded by Joao, playing traditional folk music on his accordion. What a treat! We soon came to appreciate Joao's recommendations of places to visit and eat, were extremely valuable too! We can't wait to return! "

"Parking is the only problem. Charging you extra for parking your car in their garage is not proper. Everything else is excellent. "

"Really nice hotel on the sea. Our room was fantastic, large terrace, large room and a comfortable bed. We ate in the restaurant both nights and were very impressed with the quality of the food and service. Thanks Helena!"

"We stayed 9 nights at João's property and it was great for us. Equipped kitchen, good WiFi, cozy bed, and a spacious bathroom. We will happily recommend it to anyone else visiting our family living in Portugal."
