We had a wonderful stay! "We had a wonderful stay! It is truly one of the most stunning environments we have ever visited. It’s like an imaginary world of beauty and countryside. The home itself was gorgeous with all the amenities one could ask for. The concierge service and housekeeping staff were also amazing, meeting every need and request we had. Claudia and Helena were wonderful hosts - they were so gracious to us, and the meals they prepared were stunning. We had a wonderful experience with Pedro. He was so attentive to our desires and needs of our trip and showed our family great care and concern. He was wonderful, professional, and gracious. The services overall were extraordinary, as were the conditions of the home itself. It was a glorious family vacation that we hope we are lucky enough to repeat in the future." Stephenson Family, Wayland, MA
A unique, wonderful and charming place! A unique, wonderful and charming place with a breathtaking view over the Douro vineyards, located in a super quiet and peaceful area. To complement the beauty of this place […] we had an excellent service provided by D. Cláudia and D. Helena throughout our stay - attentive and very helpful people who filled our mornings with beautiful breakfasts and a few little treats in between. I highly recommend this place to spend a family weekend. I also thank the entire Tripwix team for managing and guiding our program. Bruno, Esposende, PT
Unforgettable Experience! Best trip we’ve been on in a long time! Very impressive, we are very grateful for your help. So looking forward to our next Tripwix adventure. Michael Goldberg, USA
A million thank yous for a job well done. You promised to make our time at in Douro unforgettable. My friends, you more than succeeded. The experience was extraordinary, magical and, in many ways, life changing. There is nothing quite like the Douro Valley, its solitude and beauty, its pristine river and rolling vineyards. All of it goes down like a fine wine. The villa, cuisine, and service were all SUBLIME. And our hosts? We loved them! Nuno and his family are very special. They love their country and clearly enjoy sharing the slice of heaven they’ve created along the Douro. Our day at this Quinto, especially the wining and dining, was equally memorable. And the views...OMG!!!! I am begging you not to tell anyone else about any of this. I’m a progressive liberal and believe in the social contract of sharing BUT...do we have to? Can’t we just keep all this to ourselves? Please. Anyway, I think you get the picture. It was very difficult to leave; especially since I’m afraid of heights and found the access road harrowing. No hyperbole. And so from my entire family, a million thank yous for a job well done. Alan Greenberg, New York, NY.
