Holiday houses in Gondar

To say this place was exceptional is an understatement. The apartment is AMAZING. Spotless, beautiful lemon farm, beautiful layout. Jorge was incredible. He gave us great local restaurants/wine vineyards and even differed help accommodating reservations for vineyards. Would absolutely stay again!

We as a group had the most special time at Miguel’s Airbnb - the house was beautiful, the view was unbelievable and the communication throughout our whole trip was flawless. Ana was super responsive through the week, even bringing us a BBQ! We had a fantastic meal at Restaurant Pena, the Beef Cheek was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. The service couldn’t have been better - would highly recommended to all staying locally. I will note, you’d have to hire a car to stay here. The local roads are super steep but very fun to drive. Thank you all for the trip, it was brilliant. We had the best time and would love to revisit in the future!

Everything was great & we got great recommendations for the area. Upon arrival, we met at a nearby cafe and were escorted to the accommodation. We were very warmly welcomed on site and received the first information. After half of the stay, we even got fresh towels. Unfortunately, two things are not apparent from the description: the view of the lake is obscured by trees & you have direct neighbors. But that didn't bother us & we would come again and again!

On our trip to Portugal, the Douro Valley was the highlight of the trip from the storybook views to the spread of freshly picked cherries, homemade preserves and wine awaiting our arrival to the cleanliness and comforts of a beautiful home perched high up on the vineyard terraced hills. The game room was an incredible surprise - there are seven eighties arcade games along with a ping pong table, a foosball table and an infinity game with over 150 board games built into the table. The hospitality was second to none. Gabrella, the property manager, was one step ahead of us ensuring that we had everything we needed to make our stays one of the most memorable. Sephi, the owner, is one of the most generous people we have ever met. His passion for region and willingness to offer his time to you is amazing. We spent one morning touring his winery, learning the old way of making wine and enjoying the fruits of his labor – an extraordinary experience not a just another Air BnB.

Sandra's apartment is magnificent: clean, bright, central, very spacious for two people and very quiet. Our stay in Guimarães, in the historic center, was great thanks to that accommodation. The price-quality ratio is optimal. The nearby and cheap parking Camões also made things easier. We definitely recommend this place nice and well managed. Muito obrigado.

The house sits in harmony with its surroundings and affords you the opportunity to enjoy it all, either sipping a glass of wine in the hot tub while watching the sun set, or lying in the pool and gazing down the valley to the river below. Beautiful. We were reluctant to leave and will definitely be back.

I hesitate writing this review because I want this place to stay a secret… but it’s too good not to share. From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. The space is spotless, stylish, and incredibly cozy—like a boutique hotel and a warm hug had a baby. The bed was so comfortable we missed our alarm (zero regrets). The kitchen was impressively stocked—better than mine at home—and every little detail felt intentional and thoughtful. The host was the perfect balance of helpful and hands-off, responding quickly when needed but letting us enjoy the space fully. The location? Peaceful, private, yet close to everything we wanted to do. It’s the kind of place that makes you rethink your life choices and wonder if you could just live here forever. Please don’t book it—I’m already planning my return and want it available. But seriously… if you’re lucky enough to snag a night here, take it. Just leave my dates open.

Casa Douro is a real gem of a place. It is actually really close to some good roads and lots of amenities and places of interest but as soon as you pass through the gates of the estate you are in little Oasis surrounded by trees and nature. Our granddaughter was enthralled by the deer as well as the resident cat. The pool area is lovely with shady as well as sunny spots while the accommodation is in the original farm buildings with thick walls and small windows which keeps it super cool on a hot day. There is air-con but it was hardly needed. The bathrooms were modern and pristine. Outside you are in what would have been a working courtyard but is now a lovely space to sit or play table tennis. Everywhere there is a nod to the past Communication was excellent and our queries were responded to really quickly. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
