Guimaraes : locations de vacances avec accès à un lac

We truly enjoyed our time relaxing at this scenic and historic place. Right along the river, attached to walking trails in a little park. Plenty of space and all the comforts of home. We spent a cool December evening here cozying up next to the fire and reading about the history of the region. The bridge/entrance dates back to roughly 1660-1740, incredible!

Excelente estadia. A casa superou as expectativas, lindíssima e muito arrumada. Cheirava muito bem. Para além disso, o sítio era extremamente calmo e com bastante privacidade. Foram bastante atenciosos, sempre prontos a ajudar. Tivemos uma pequena situação que acabamos por conseguir resolver sozinhos, no entanto foram atenciosos ao ponto de deixar um cesta com pequeno almoço à nossa porta pelo incómodo que tivemos. Recomendo 100% e com certeza voltaremos lá.

Where do I even start?! Staying at Maria's Casa do Rio felt like a magical home away from home. Maria and her sweet dogs gave us a warm welcome when we arrived and gave us a beautiful tour of the property with an overview of its history that you should not miss. She was very accommodating to our check-in time and sensitive to our plans during our stay, which were not many. Since we didn't have much planned for our spur-of-the-moment visit, we were delighted when Maria gave us many suggestions of activities on our own as well as ones with her such as a tour around the area, canoeing, hiking, yoga class, massage, cooking together and so much more. The charm and kind embrace by Maria was otherworldly and an experience in itself that we won't ever forget. If you have any reservations on booking your stay here, you shouldn't because you will not regret a single second at Casa do Rio. Every moment during our stay here is one we will treasure, and we'll be back to visit Maria and her Casa.

Adoramos muito o tempo que passamos na casa! Principalmente na altura que foi (Natal), aconselhamos imenso! Receberam nos muito bem e estava tudo impecável! Super recomendo 5 estrelas

Maravilhosa estadia num espaço super agradável e cenário quase perfeito se a chuva não teimasse em cair.

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit bei Eusébio. Der wunderschöne Garten mit Pool ist super zum entspannen. Es gibt einen direkten Zugang zum Fluss, der am Anwesen vorbeifließt. Hier kann man mit dem Tretboot oder Standup paddle-Board fahren (kann man sich vor Ort ausleihen). Eusébio ist seh nett und hilfsbereit!

Fuimos por el aniversario de mi novia y nos encantó la casa súper equipada y cómoda. Todo muy limpio Volveríamos

Cesar's beautifully restored millhouse was a peaceful respite and highlight of our time in Portugal. He thoughtfully provided a delicious, healthy breakfast and tasty treats. Highly recommend this special place in Guimarães.

Isabel aime sa ville, et elle vous le transmet. Elle nous a donné de nombreuses recommandations et propositions fort utiles. Après avoir discuté avec elle, elle est allé chercher des adresses correspondantes aux envies que nous avions. Isabel est une hôte en or, et son logement, notamment avec la vue sur le Douro, est particulièrement agréable et plutôt calme, collé au centre historique.

I hadn’t researched the area well when I booked this home and didn’t realize that we’d be on the other side of the river from Porto. I’m so glad that I didn’t know as I might not have booked and we were thrilled with the location and the home. Being on the river was like watching a movie at all hours of the day and night. We loved the walks across the bridge to Porto and enjoyed the riverside restaurants and activities on both sides. The apartment is quiet and has very comfortable beds which is more important the older we get. There are stairs with the apartment on three levels. We enjoyed our brief times on the terrace and would have spent more time there in better weather. Isa responded quickly when we had a challenge with the washing machine and it was fixed the next day. She also showed me how to use the coffee machine, which produces fabulous coffee. It wasn’t difficult but I needed help. The place has everything needed for a great visit and we highly recommend it.

This is a superb apartment. Small and cosy right in the centre of the old historic fishing village, on the river. There are loads of v good restaurants within a 1-2 min walk. Great cafe underneath. Marina 2 mins walk. It was great.

Our stay at Casa do Engenho Braga was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, Monica made us feel so welcome and at home. The property is stunning—beautifully maintained, with charming details and breathtaking views. The rooms were spotless and thoughtfully decorated, offering both comfort and style. Monica went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, providing great local tips and being available whenever we had questions. The amenities were top-notch, from the fully equipped kitchen to the serene outdoor spaces. It truly felt like a home away from home. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with exceptional hospitality, this is the place to be. Thank you, Monica, for making our stay unforgettable—we can’t wait to return!

My family loved staying at this beautiful suite in the heart of Vila Nova de Gaia! We felt absolutely at home, while being so close to many walkable areas. We will definitely stay again!

It is delighted that Sonia had tried her best to make our early check-in become possible. She welcomed us directly with a brief introduction of the accommodation. The house is clean and comfortable to all of us. Sónia’s place, located in Vila Nova da Gaia is a convenient location good to everywhere esp. it is walking distance to nearby sight-seeing place such as Jardim do Morro Hilltop park, Dom Luís I Bridge and Ribeira neighborhood etc. Fantastic views in both day and night could be viewed from both inside and outside of the house. Overall, good stay and will re-book Sonia’s house in the next time. Vincent

hote très amical et réactive. très bonne communication. logement au top. manque juste la clim ou des moustiquaires pour pouvoir laisser les fenêtre ouvertes la nuit pour rafraîchir l'appartement. logement très spacieux pour 5. propre et fonctionnel.

The location of the house is great, at the very center of Porto so you can reach everywhere by walk. If you want to visit other cities, Sao Bento train station is less then 5min by walk. The place is super clean and well equipped with everything you may need. Moreover, as you can see in the pictures but even more impressive in real, the house is decorated delicately. You can feel Margarida’s artistic touch of everywhere. Altough Margarida doesnt speak English, communication with her was unique. She is extremely kind, warm, caring, caring, helpful, reaponsive. Talking with her was like having a conversation with a close friend you havent seen for a while and that made me feel like home. Thank you so much Margarida for eveything! I hope to see you soon again

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la Casa Eira. Le logement correspondait parfaitement aux photos. L'environnement est calme et paisible. Idéal pour déconnecter et se reposer. Nous avons adoré. Les propriétaires sont très réactifs et viennent en aide au moindre souci. Nous recommandons et nous reviendrons.

Lovely setting in the valley with the river rushing by, out porch looked up the river and walks around the grounds were very peaceful, we really enjoyed the area. There were so many small details that made the place special, lighting in the evenings along rhe paths and by the waterfall, kind and responsive communication, lovely and well designed interior, an amazing bathtub with piping hot water, comfy sheets, firewood and more. We will definitely be back.

Ganz besonderer Ort direkt am Douro. Wunderschöne Terrasse mit Pool, Liegen und Garten mit Obstbäumen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Rui, your host, was brilliant and as effervescent as a freshly poured flute of fine French champagne - so much so that one almost needs to lie down and rest after having a chat. He loves his tree house and is extremely proud of his construction. One of the nights of our stay they had the fiercest storm in nearly 20 years - 100 kph winds, slashing rain and intense lighting and thunder yet in the morning both we and the tree house was still in the tree - can't say much about sleep but what an experience. It is, indeed, a magical experience. If you are coming by rental car, and a stickler for detail, be aware that you must drive over gravel roads for a few kms, which for most rental cars is not covered in the contract but if you drive in a mature and rationale matter who will ever know. Like how many people can say that they actually resided in a tree house. Just do it.

Célia foi extremamente solicita, deixou o informações clara e esteve 100% disponível!

Gui has two houses for rent, in a nice, quiet, rural environment close to beautiful Ponte-de-Lima. She is very friendy and extremely helpful.

A piece of paradise. A beautiful location, tastfully decorated and a very kind and attentive host. Esmoriz and the surroundings are beautiful, I can highly recommend a stay here.
