House holiday rentals in A Guarda

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.

Really beautiful home with stunning views, absolutely loved our stay here thanks for having us. Fully equipped kitchen and the space is absolutely gorgeous throughout. Brilliant outdoor area for dining and sunbathing. Garden and pool in full sunshine whenever you want to use them but a nice shaded area for dining. Only slight disappointment was the home did not have air con as advertised (it was underfloor heating) so we were quite hot at night and struggled to sleep. The heating system was adjusted and our host provided fans for each bedroom to try and help cool the house. Overall fantastic property.

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!

En sjelden mulighet til å bo i et spesielt hus tegnet av en prisvinnende arkitekt. Marta var hjelpsom, møtte oss med kake og vin.

Adorámos bastante a casa, acreditamos que ela seja ótima tanto para um grupo de amigos como para a família. A casa tinha bastantes jogos à escolha. No que diz respeito à anfitriã, a mesma é muito simpática e sempre se demonstrou disponível.

Nuestra estancia allí ha sido fantástica. La casa es nueva, está limpia y es muy amplia y comoda. Además José Carlos y su familia han sido muy amables. La zona es además muy bonita, tanto la playa como alrededores.

Isaque and his familly were great , very welcoming and frendly ! the house is lovely and exactly what we needed this time , a little refuge in paradise , with everything we needed and surrounded by nature ! we will be back ! Thank you Isaque , Luisa e D.Dores 💖

Beautiful home is ponte de Lima. Close to the town center and surround towns. About an hour away from Porto. Lots to see and do within short drives. Home is private and cozy. Would recommend.

Our four night stay at Casa do Trigo was excellent. We felt right at home. The location is ideal; close to restaurants and shopping, in old town, great walking area, safe, and quiet. The home smelled fresh upon entry, and was very clean. The beds are comfortable and the linens are luxurious. The room darkening shades work great. The furniture is comfortable and clean. The bathrooms are clean and the rain shower heads are a nice feature. The towels are thick and soft. The kitchen is nice and functional. The heating and air conditioning are easy to use and kept home comfortable. The open-air garage/carport is convenient and secure. Our compact car just fit at an angle. The measurements listed in the description are accurate. It is also tricky to get in and out of. The street is a narrow one-lane, dead end street. Gereviana was helpful, professional, and responded quickly to our messages. They met us at checkin, and provided checkin treats. We would stay here again!

We had the most wonderful month-long stay at this beautiful home in Portugal. The house itself is stunning—spacious, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. It had everything we needed, especially in the kitchen, which was fully equipped for cooking at home. It really felt like a home away from home. The location is perfect if you’re looking to unwind and enjoy a peaceful break away from the city. It’s calm and quiet, yet only 20–30 minutes by car to some absolutely charming towns nearby—great for day trips and exploring the area. The hosts were absolutely lovely—welcoming, responsive, and genuinely kind. When we unexpectedly had some car trouble, they went out of their way to help us get things sorted quickly, which we really appreciated. All in all, this was a truly fantastic experience and we’re already looking forward to coming back if we’re in Portugal next year. Highly, highly recommended..!

Adoramos a nossa estadia! A casa estava impecavelmente limpa e confortável para nos receber. A Cristina e o seu marido foram muito simpáticos e atenciosos! O espaço exterior é excelente para aproveitar momentos em família, assim como a vista da cozinha/sala, todos os dias jantamos com vista para o pôr do sol. A casa fica muito perto de supermercados, restaurantes e até da praia e dos passadiços. Gostamos muito!

The house is a stand alone accomodation with a lovely front terrace surrounded by fields....if you love nature, this is it...close by is a super restsurant if you don't feel like cooking and about 15 min max a coffee shop...so basically you don't need anything else...

Nossa estadia na casa de Coura não poderia ser melhor. Sra. Bela muitíssima atenciosa, sempre ao dispor para quaisquer pedidos e ajuda. A casa está rodeada de natureza, ouve-se somente os pássaros, muito tranquila o dia todo. Limpa e organizada, a cozinha possui todos os utensílios necessários e se dispuseram inclusive a nos fornecer uma mesa adicional para trabalhar. Passamos dois meses na temporada de inverno com a casa sempre mantida por aquecimento. Internet impecável e privacidade excelente. Sobretudo, o maior ponto à ressaltar são os proprietários e seus enormes corações. Tivemos a grande honra e felicidade de fazer amizade e conhecer a cultura/cozinha do norte. É um diferencial para quem deseja conhecer o modo de vida do interior, pois nos levaram também para conhecer os animais e detalhes de seu dia-a-dia de trabalho. Levamos muitas lembranças e carinho deste lugar especial, pessoas incríveis e que deixaram seus registos na nossa história, nossa melhor experiência em Portugal!

Lovely host and an outstanding location. Relaxed and fun. Enjoyed the shared pool. Magical place

Local perfeito para umas férias calmas e tranquilas com a família. Piscina boa e a relação casa, jardim e piscina fantástica. Próximo de Caminha, das praias da zona e suficientemente perto, para uma escapadinha a Espanha.

Anfang Juni 2025 waren wir eine Woche im gemütlichen Tiny House von Clarisse & Manuel. Der Garten ist wunderschön, ebenso die Umgebung mit Dorf, Feldern, Meeresküste und Wald. Praia de Paco ist ein sehr schöner naturbelassener Strand. Unsere Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich & angenehm. Der Orangencake ein Traum! Muito obrigado😀! Wir machen Ferien ohne Auto. Die wenigen Verbindungen der Lokalbahn haben uns gereicht. An- und Abreise mit Taxi von Viana do Castrlo klappten perfekt. Beatrice und Luzi

Una casa muy cuidada, un jardín impecable y un entorno maravilloso. Un lugar donde disfrutar de unas buena vacaciones.

¡Repetimos y no podemos estar más contentos! Volvimos a esta estancia buscando desconexión y tranquilidad… ¡y menuda elección más acertada! Todo ha sido excepcional. María y Gloria son un amor, nos recibieron con una empanada que estaba increíble. ¡Gracias por cuidar cada detalle y hacernos sentir como en casa!

Mário and Judite were amazing hosts! Really responsive and friendly and provided great recommendations and really easy face to face check in and out! The space was pristine and everything was thought of. Everything in the space was of great quality from the appliances to the linens. The pool area is lovely and gardens well kept, the fire pits and bbq are ready to use straight away too! I would 100% recommend this to anyone. It was such a peaceful and relaxing stay with everything we could have needed :)

El trato con Pilar y Nacho ha sido excepcional, muy atentos en todo momento, cualquier cosa que hemos necesitado nos han respondido muy rápidamente. La casa una maravilla, muy tranquila, con todas las comodidades y muy cerca del río, que tiene unas playas muy tranquilas y limpias. Añadir que hay una senda fluvial que recorre toda la costa llegando hasta la misma Guardia. Sin duda algún año más repetiremos la experiencia en esta maravillosa casa.

Altogether a very enjoyable stay. Really well equipped home and generously stocked kitchen. The view from the house is glorious and the location amidst eucaplytus pine wild fennel. A looked after garden with overhanging lemon and lime trees and a series of well tendered lawns is perfect. Lovely 1.5 hr walk up high behnd the house to chapel. Carminha is a beautiful town 2.4 klm away : easy to park and easy getting in and out : lots of restaurants and pasterlerias and cafes. When you just arrive it is worth going 7 klms west along coast road to big supermarket :Continiente (signs on road) to stock up. Local lovely beach on the edge of town located eucaplyptus forest :easy parking- lifeguarded and has cafe. Beaches futher along the coast road . Inland from the house in a nearby village of Murios is small lake open to all for swimming and picnicing.. Great to come back to the house each day and everything to hand. Vitor exceptional host: kind,responisive and organised.

Una casa muy bonita en un lugar privilegiado de A Guarda, muy cerca del puerto y el paseo marítimo, muy cuidada, limpia y con todo tipo de detalles. La anfitriona muy amable y siempre que hemos tenido que hablar con ella enseguida ha contestado. Repetiremos seguro

Todo perfecto. Volveríamos otra vez sin dudarlo. Son personas maravillosas y la casa es incluso mejor de lo que imaginas. ¡Gracias!

La casita era muy acogedora y tenía todo lo necesario. Los anfitriones estuvieron muy pendientes y fueron muy amables. Viajábamos con niños y tenían un baúl lleno de cosas para ellos. También nos gustó que tenían una zona amplia en la parte delantera de la casa donde los niños podían jugar libremente. Si volvemos por la zona, repetiremos seguro. Muchas gracias por todo 🙌🙌🙌
