"For someone who wants the experience of a full five star hotel luxury amenities and service — Vidago Palace is your choice. Starting with the greeting at the royal entrance of the palace and exceptional reception service and ending with the spa treatments everything makes you feel like royalty😂
Not to mention their excellent breakfast and a Michelin star dinner we had for a special occasion. And of course a magic park surrounding the palace."

Such a beautifully appointed accomodation, the views were exceptional.
Communication was excellent and we were able to check in 1 hour early.
The house itself is stunning and very clean, it smelled amazing as soon as you walked in the door.
Breakfast was excellent, all very fresh and a lovely setting.
We had food prepared in the evening and the quality was exceptional. The wine pairing, olive oil, pastel del nata and the port on arrival were also excellent.

This was the second time we stayed at Hotel Cotto do Gatto. It is truly a pet-friendly hotel where dogs are allowed in the breakfast area, restaurant, and pool area. My dog enjoyed sniffing around and making new dog friends. I especially loved the pool and good water pressure in the shower. The staff members were also very lovely and friendly.

Our 3 nights stay here was incredible. The owner is open and friendly, warm and welcoming. The room is immaculate, with attention to detail and a complimentary bottle of Vinho Verde. The pool is well situated, clean and warm in the evening. The breakfast is a fantastic spread of traditional and contemporary foods (their daily cake is to die for!). We look forward to staying with you again in the near future!

A truly delightful experience that far exceeded my expectations, from the service and the people to the quality of the hotel. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed at, and definitely somewhere I will come back to for a longer stay.

Beautiful hotel with fantastic staff. Food was great in both the main restaurant and Schisto (tasting menu). Wine tasting at their vineyard was informative snd fun.

The room was modern and spotless, the views were beautiful, the breakfast was plentiful. Beatriz was an absolute angel, from making reservations at recommended restaurants, to organising taxis, she often checked in on us to see if we needed anything. What a wonderful find, I'm sure we'll be back! Thank you!

The view and location of this hotel is beyond imagination — everything is beautiful. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Most importantly, the staff is lovely and so so friendly. We have been here before and we will definitely come back again.

Beautiful property, both the studio and pool area were well thought out and really enjoyable. Great breakfast basket provided and drinks available at the pool

Fabulous hotel - almost Belmond but not quite.
Rooms are excellent (must comfortable beds with down pillows). Breakfast is superb. Pool service a bit sporadic but overall the staff were wonderful.

A small bolt hole, 4 rooms as part of a working winery hidden well off the beaten track. Great staff & simple meals with local wine make it a relaxing place to stay. You can tour the vineyard and winery or simply relax by the pool but it’s definitely a place to recharge your batteries. The bed was comfortable, linen and towels good. Nice lavender toiletries provided and a fabulous marble bathroom which has given me some ideas ;)

The location is amazing with spectacular views down the river. So peaceful and quiet. The room was very clean and the attention to detail was great. Breakfast was served in the room and was a real treat. Service was friendly. A couple of minor things that it is worth knowing about if you visit. Hotels.com still say they take credit cards but they do not. Parking is off street. It's safe and plenty of it but it is not on site and a short walk up a hill. Don't let it put you off - great place to...

Such a wonderful slice of heaven. Definitely visit this property. The staff were fantastic & so helpful. A bottle of sparkling wine at the pool was €18 and absolutely delicious. The breakfast omelette was delightful, the dinner was delicious. The pool was sensational, such a lovely place to be. Book it! We had a vineyard suite, the Manor House ones seemed further away.

Lovely building in a wonderful garden. Exceeded expectations in every way. Tasty breakfast, with friendly staff who looked after us. Plenty of car parking onsite.
