Holiday rentals with lake access in Douro River

We pass it barbarous. The view of the house is a real pleasure. The photos totally match the reality. The hosts were so accommodating. I would go back without hesitation!

An amazing house in an amazing place. Modern, clean, quiet and superbly equipped. Surrounded by terraced vines with world class views of the Ribeira Sacra and the Rio Miño. We loved our short stay here. It was tranquil but we also had one amazing lightning storm to experience. You can just sit and relax or use it as a base to explore. Best to get all your supplies before you get there as there is nothing in Belesar. Or you can pop into Chantada like we did. Great communication with Jose as well. A great stay

We stayed 3 nights, but longer would have been nice. The house is spacious, clean and close to the center. With nice restaurants and beach. We also think this is a great location for children. The possibility of using the bicycles is a nice bonus. And there are bike paths :-). We highly recommend it.

We had a great three-day stay. The place was private, with a spacious bedroom, balcony, and two bathrooms. It was perfect for our dog — we could walk him off-leash in the village. We all enjoyed drinking the cool, fresh water from the mountain fountain! The lake access was a nice bonus. The host was very welcoming and gave great local recommendations. A relaxing and comfortable stay overall! :)

Paloma is wonderful and very kind host. Extremely helpful from the very moment we met her for check in, until the end when we checked out. The accommodation was very safe, clean and organized and met our expectations. Very nice place for getting away from city life and just relaxing on the property. Also, the surrounding areas in Candeleda are beautiful with a lot of mountainous to explore while hiking and walking around, along the river, as well as surrounding areas. We had a wonderful time in the area and at Paloma's place. Highly recommend. Massood

A true piece of paradise! 🌿✨ From the first moment, we feel welcomed as if we were at home - but with the charm of a heavenly refuge. Diogo was an exemplary host: always available, attentive and genuinely concerned with our well-being. Your kindness made the experience even more special. The space is simply breathtaking, perfect for resting the mind and recharging the soul. And as if the surrounding nature and the tranquility of the place were not enough, we had charming visitors: adorable kittens that appeared unexpectedly and immediately won our hearts. They were a sweet and caring asset, which gave even more life to our stay. We recommend it with our eyes closed — and with our hearts full.

My family very much enjoyed this unique and calm location in a refurbished mill house. There is a boardwalk across the road that brings you to the village. David was responsive and helpful. Would gladly return.

Great space. The family enjoyed the ample space. A car is required, but we anticipated that. Having the bicycles and kayaks were great unexpected perks that we enjoyed greatly. The air-con came in handy too for the time of the year we visited. Jose, the owner, was very helpful and accommodating with our requests, even at odd hours. Highly recommended and we will pass on the message to friends akin.

Peace on the water (at the end of the world) The accommodation was only found after a telephone inquiry, although there are only a few buildings in the village. This is VERY secluded, if you want to stay longer, you should shop well. There were only two cafes and one (closed) restaurant there. The nearest store is about a 1/2 hour drive away. However, it would also be possible to arrive by train. However, it is fantastically beautiful, right on the river, and the traffic of ships, trains and cars can almost be counted. I particularly liked the surroundings with the many flowers, the access to the water and the many seating and lounging options outdoors, both in the shade and in the sun. If you want to take a boat trip, you don't have to go away, the host also does such. You can also rent boats from him, and he gave us tips for fishing. The accommodation is worth its price, is well equipped and there is also parking in the shade. Many thanks to all

This was a nice place on a quiet street. It had a comfortable bed and everything we needed in the studio apartment. The restaurants in the area were delicious. If you want to be a little bit away from the Porto downtown this is a great option. We had a vehicle and were able to drive over to Porto in 20 minutes. This place is made up of more local people and culture. It was quiet and beautiful. Only 1 minute walk from the water.

We really enjoyed this stay in Porto. The location was fantastic and the host was great. Would highly recommend this home for any visitors to the beautiful city of Porto.

A stunning apartment with a magical view of Porto and the ocean. Clean and spacious. There’s internet and streaming services on the TV for the child. Within a 10–30 minute walk in either direction along the beach, there are places with delicious food. There is some construction nearby, but the apartment itself is relatively quiet. There were a couple of minor issues, but overall, it’s a fantastic place to stay. We’d gladly come back if we have the chance.

My stay in Aitor's place was perfect. All was exactly as described. I would come again.

This is a great place to stay. It has a great view and it is close to restaurants, a market, the Luis I bridge, etc. It has a patio where you can sit and have some wine while enjoying the sunset. Sónia was really responsive and will definetelly book her place for our next trip to Porto. Thanks for everything, we had a really good time!!!

The apartment is as shown in the pictures. It is very clean and has all the necessary utensils for the stay. It is located in a quiet and easy to find area. Alberto has been attentive at all times and gave me very good recommendations. I recommend it 100%

I would definitely return to this apartment. It has incredible views, and we have seen beautiful sunsets, but the house also has all the comforts, it is decorated with great taste and everything is taken care of in detail. Everything was super clean, and Eulália made sure we were well at all times, answering quickly and even coming when it was necessary to fix something. I highly recommend it, and I would return without hesitation.

We had a lovely stay at this cottage located in the countryside in a relaxing place! José and Aurora were very attentive: tips, fruit and apple juice from the farm, thank you! Supermarket 5 minutes away, rivers for swimming a few minutes away, Amarante and Guimarães 45 minutes away, Porto 1h15.

Pablo's house is fabulous, you feel like in the tower of a castle, surrounded by nature and many activities to do outdoors. Fabulous to disconnect, relax, play sports and rest in being a very quiet village.

This is an exceptional Airbnb. Fernando is a welcoming host and an interesting man to talk to. The house is spacious, generous and peaceful. It is also beautiful, with character, and perfect spots for every season. The sitting room must be lovely in winter. The walks in the nature reserve were lovely! You won’t want to leave.

Jorge’s beautifully restored mill house by the river was perfect for our two families (five boys, two dogs). The old molinero blends historic charm with modern comforts; underfloor heating, smart thermostats, so you enjoy nature and luxury. Bedrooms vary but are all spacious with designer bathrooms, including one with a jacuzzi. Shared spaces are ideal for family time, with a big wooden table and stunning views of the waterfall. A unique, special place! I especially loved the fireplaces in both houses, adding warmth and charm in the evenings. Down by the river, the little house, terraced deck, and outdoor jacuzzi were pure fun - a generous touch from the host, truly worth it! And the Valle del Jerte was just wonderful; we enjoyed two beautiful walks between rain showers. Thank you, Jorge, and special thanks to Bianca for the warm welcome. Hasta la próxima!

We had a wonderful time in La Vera. A beautifully drawn house (with a miraculous bookcase) in a beautiful location. The terrace and the view are lovely, as are the diversity of the surrounding landscapes and habitats.

Ideal place to relax and contemplate nature.

I would use the word "Exceptionnel" for this stay. The chalet was almost new, everything was well done, functional, well equipped and decorated with a lot of taste. As the place is a bit remote, the environment is also very calm and relaxing. Would return any time.

We had a wonderful time at Agustín and Nuria’s estate. It’s more than just a welcoming home—it’s a unique and memorable experience thanks to the diverse and charming elements throughout the property. Agustín and Nuria were very welcoming hosts, providing us with all the details of the house and the surrounding area. We’d love to return and relive this special stay.
