Villa holiday rentals in Minho

Definitely a vacation to repeat, I recommend it to those looking for peace, tranquility and nature! The house is very well equipped, decorated and has an amazing view! During our stay we were also able to enjoy the delicious fruit that is at Quinta de Fundevila (where the house is located). Regarding the location, it could not be better, in a few minutes' walk you are in the center of Arco de Baúlhe or the old train station, where there is no shortage of things to see and explore. It should be noted that the restaurants in the area are all very good, as well as the bakery and are just minutes from the house. Regina and Alberto are very attentive and warm hosts, they spoiled us so much! Thank you so much for everything, we miss it already <3

Everything went very well! From the first communications with Natasha until the time of checkout. We arrived a little later than expected and Natasha was super friendly and accessible every time. The house is amazing and it's very well-equipped! The outdoor area is outstanding! We loved ☺️

Impeccable home, good location, 3min from the tram and 30min walk to the center of Porto, easy arrival. Pleasant garden for breakfast and aperitifs. Homes perfect for a large group. Comfort bedding.

What an EXTRAORDINARY accommodation Casa Marmelo was for our group of 8 adults when visiting the Douro valley !!! Host Kate was super to work -- right from our initial contact for information through our date of departure. What an excellent WELCOME GUIDE she provided before our arrival - with valuable tips and suggestions for activities and dining throughout the area. Housekeeper Helene too could not have been more kind, charming, and helpful. What delicious breakfasts she made for us each morning. The entire property was kept so clean and tidy. What a memorable time we all had -- we all hope to be back!

great house. the neighborhood is very nice. Viana is a great town. the house is very well thought out and very pleasant to live with family.

We had a pleasant stay in Manuel's house. We stayed 8 days with my family. My children being very young (1 year and 2 years), we enjoyed the house for a long time! It's suitable for children. Be careful with the pool around which there is no protection for the little ones. So you have to open your eyes. But other than that everything is fine. The view from the house is beautiful. Manuel is very responsive and flexible. A housekeeper visits almost daily to help us maintain the house. Thank you Manuel and maybe see you soon! Nicolas

What an incredible house and view! We had an amazing time, I'd recommend this to anyone looking for somewhere to gather with friends and family to unplug and unwind

Awesome location. Very spacious, river is just next to the house. Big pool. A lot of extra services you can get. For ex renting sups and rafting down the river is a must!

Our stay at this beautiful home in Portugal was absolutely perfect. After traveling such a long way for my sister’s wedding, it was the peaceful and welcoming space our family truly needed. The home felt like a second home—every small detail was so thoughtful and intentional. We loved that there was plenty of space for everyone to be close, while still being able to find quiet moments alone. The upstairs outdoor room was a favorite spot, and having fresh oranges from the tree every day made it feel magical. We even had a cookout during our stay, which made for such special memories. The host was phenomenal—she had fresh bread delivered daily and stocked the home with so many amenities that we didn’t need to run out for a thing. She truly went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Overall, she was absolutely wonderful to my family and me, and we are so glad we chose this home. It made an already special trip even more unforgettable.

The villa is beautiful and our large extended family of 12 felt very comfortable there. The pool is great as is the jacuzzi and games room neither which were expected and were an added bonus! The gardens are stunning. The location is a little awkward and not really in walking distance to the beach and buses are infrequent. But we made it work. Our check in was chaotic but that was our fault for not realising the time difference between Portugal and Spain. The facilities are great except the showers never really heated up. These are minor niggles because we really had a brilliant family holiday in the most comfortable and beautiful space. The pictures do not do it justice - in reality it’s even better! We weren’t expecting to pay €500 cash as a deposit and for a variety of reasons it took over a week for the bank transfer to arrive. However Celia and her team were great in communicating so we knew it was going to be returned eventually. A fantastic holiday in a beautiful villa!

Everything is at its best, I'd recommend it without a second thought.

To everyone who’s thinking of renting this house; if you’re having doubts, this is the sign to go for it. I’m speaking on behalf of my family and myself. We were a group of 8 who had the lovely opportunity to spend New Year’s Eve in this beautiful space. To start with, pictures don’t do justice to the gem you find when you pass through the entrance door. The house seems like it blends or comes out of the mountain itself. Maintaining original external features of what it seemed an old house that was carefully blended into the newer structure of the main house. When you enter you have the feeling of being at home and from any of the panoramic windows to the west side of the house you get the breathtaking views of the Douro river They’ve thought of all details and making it a perfectly functional house to not have to leave for as long as you plan to stay there. Having the breakfast service is also another extra service we were really happy to have thank you for the lovely experience.

Fantastic accommodation. Beautiful gardens, pool and house. Marcus is a very good host, and looked after us so well - bringing us little gifts like fresh orange juice just made the experience so much better. One of our children really wanted to keep a huge lemon he’d found in the garden but we told him he would have to ask. Instead of just saying no, or yes, Marcus said “sure, but why don’t we make some lemonade together!”. Just so thoughtful and kind. The house is very well equipped and beautifully furnished. Lots of attention to detail. Pool is very large and everything is perfectly clean. Marcus and Rick really did go out of their way to ensure our stay was successful without ever being intrusive, so please don’t hesitate to book!

I can't say enough about how incredible this Airbnb was, Carla and her property were so beyond expectations. My family and I felt extremely comfortable there, it is remote but absolutely beautiful. We were not able to use the pool, because the weather was a little bit cold. I jumped in for like 20 minutes and even though it was cold it was very nice. Carla was so communicative the entire time we were there, she made lots of helpful suggestions and helped us to book a tour around the Douro Valley and surrounding areas. She and a friend also cooked us breakfast every morning, which was delicious and helped us to start our day. 10 out of 10, I would absolutely return.

Marisa’s property was absolutely perfect for our family (10 adults). The individual apartments were lovely, clean and comfortable and gave everyone their own personal space while also providing a common space for us to gather. We were greeted promptly on our arrival with a tour and clear instructions. (And a nice welcome basket of goodies!) The location was also great, giving us access to restaurants and attractions. Very walkable to most places. Highly recommend this property!

very good stay , with good views , very friendly treatment

We had a wonderful stay. The villa was spacious and comfortable, and the outdoor space is lovely. Becky is a brilliant host, friendly and welcoming, and gave us loads of great tips on places to go. Can't recommend highly enough!

Had a great time in Marie’s place. She welcomed us really well sharing local places we could go to to shop or eat, and recommendation for Porto. Very easy to check in and flexible which was great. The house is very big with all amenities, and a very nice area by the swimming pool. Thanks again !

it was perfect Amalia and Paco have been attentive at all times. Thank you very much for everything

We had a wonderful time in Portugal, and Antonio's place was a perfect base for our day trips. The house was lovely with lots of space and beautiful decor. The kitchen was well equipped and easy to cook in. The gardens had lots to explore, and fruit trees and a vegetable patch. Our children loved the house and we all had lots to do, including a playroom with loads of toys, dozens of boardgames, and just really nice spots to sit and read. Antonio was super friendly, very easily contactable, very quick to respond, and gave us lots of nice suggestions. We've had an amazing time at his amazing family home!

The house was even more beautiful than expected and cleaned to a wonderful standard. The place felt homely and spacious with enough amenities provided ie towels, kitchen utensils, food items etc. Pool and grounds were well kept by Fernando who helped us out with some queries during the week. The ruins on the property have the place an authentic and rustic feel. This is the perfect spot to get away from it all for some peace and quiet in the beautiful countryside.

A big thank you to Sergio for hosting us in perfect French: a small bottle and delicious pastries were waiting for us in the fridge. He gave us very good advice on places to visit in the area. The accommodation was as described. Sergio has a beautiful and large house that's very clean. The garden is very nice but unfortunately we didn't get a chance to use it too much because the weather didn't allow it.

The stay was great, we were six people and a dog and we all loved the dog. The barbecue is very well and easy to clean, a butcher shop in Caldas called Moncho is highly recommended. Juan's attention during the ten stay, available to solve questions and very good communication.
