Review by hotel critic
Olhares Do Douro Guest House exceeded my high expectations in every way possible. The serene location overlooking the Douro and Sabor Rivers provided a breathtaking view, creating a tranquil atmosphere that was truly unforgettable. The warm hospitality of the hosts, Fernando and Gilda, went above and beyond - from ensuring our comfort to arranging a special New Year's Eve dinner and surprising us with a homemade cake and white port to celebrate. The attention to detail in every aspect of the stay was exceptional, from the immaculate and modern rooms to the spacious dining room and well-designed kitchen where we tried our hand at cooking local delicacies.The breakfast spread was a highlight, featuring a variety of homemade Portuguese dishes that left us fully satisfied each morning, setting the perfect tone for our day of exploration. The personal touch extended to ensuring we had everything we needed, including a well-stocked kitchen with cookware and utensils for preparing meals, and an electric kettle for our daily cup of tea. The shared terrace provided a perfect spot to enjoy the stunning views while savoring our meals, and the comfortable lounge with a flat-screen TV and parquet floors felt like a luxurious retreat after a day of surfing or sightseeing.In conclusion, Olhares Do Douro Guest House stands out not just for its physical accommodations but for the genuine care and thoughtfulness of the hosts that make it a truly exceptional place to stay. Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway or a relaxing retreat in the Douro Valley, this guest house offers an unforgettable experience that surpasses all expectations.
