Vacation rentals with lake access in Douro River

Great weekend at Luis' house. The house has everything you need and was impeccably clean. I am allergic to dust and cleanliness is very important to me. It is in a very nice and quiet area, surrounded by trees and a few minutes' drive from A Pobra do Caramiñal. But the best thing is definitely the garden, large, beautiful, full of trees and shade and completely fenced, if you go with dogs, children or both, it could not be better. If we return to the area, we will definitely come back to Luis' house.

The family had a fantastic week at a great location. Joao was a great host and super helpful.

A perfect, cozy retreat to unwind from the city's hustle and soak in the beauty of nature. We'd love to come back!

What a beautiful house in such a picturesque location! It was very well-equipped and cozy, offering a true experience of everyday life in this part of Portugal. Thank you for your warmth and hospitality as well!

A very quiet, rustic and rural setting. Sooooooo peaceful. Fantastic place to escape the city, get some rest and reconnect with nature. The outdoor, wood-heated bath was great, although it did seem a little decadent for just one person. Ideal for a couple. There is a river and Diogo (who is very friendly and very helpful) said he has a canoe. Although it was still quite cool in the mornings (early April), there is a wood-burner and an AC unit that also heats. The driveway is do-able but more for adventurous drivers. The village (Macieira da Maia) is very authentic and it is only about 10-15 min to the beach. Vila do Conde has a beautiful old-town. Many great beaches along the coast. Braga is only about 40 min, Oporto, about 20-30 min by car.

The area is beautiful and very quiet, you have a lot of privacy and tranquility. It is a perfect place to disconnect and spend a few quiet days and rest are very nice views. The house is comfortable and the Jacuzzi is great. This place is 🙂 highly recommended!

Our stay at Carmen's house has been an unforgettable experience. Carmen is a perfect and caring host, and has been tremendously kind and patient with us. The house is like in the photos, ideal for a stay surrounded by nature. The location and surrounding landscapes are amazing. The location is ideal for those looking for tranquility, although there are also many possibilities of entertainment and amusement nearby. The house is perfectly maintained and nothing is missing. Thank you very much Carmen, we can't wait to come back.

Great stay! Maybe i’ll come back in the summer.

The apartment was so cozy, we were grateful for the little local treats that were left for us it was such a nice touch. The apartment was clean and had a beautiful view of the river from the bedroom windows. The small town was quaint and we enjoyed immensely walking around trying all the amazing restaurants and enjoying the beach. My family and I can’t wait to visit this amazing place again soon!!! Thank you for an amazing little getaway!!

Everything went smoothly. The apartment was clean and comfortable and in a great location. The kitchen could use a few more basic essentials such as a spatula and a large spoon for example, but we managed. Overall a nice stay.

Spacious apartment, very very well-equipped. We feel welcomed by the decorative touches and touches (small slippers await you at the entrance). The host is available to meet expectations. Very professional rental. Only small point to improve, the bedding of the king size bed, otherwise everything else is perfect.

We highly recommend it! Nelson is very responsive and friendly. Perfect location 2 min walk to the beach (sea view). The apartment is even bigger than the pictures! Very well equipped and clean. The pool is great too. Only downside: maybe the lack of deckchair near the pool for sunbathing :) Thank you for the quality of the accommodation!

We loved spending the long weekend here, the apartment is beautiful and has everything you need. The balcony is the best part of the apartment and we spent almost every day there (breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner) If you don't know the place, Alberto will tell you which routes to take and where to go for a drink. Across the street there is a very beautiful beach with an amazing view. The view is the best part of the apartment and you can see the mountain from almost every room, we will definitely be back ✨

The apartment is as it is with everything new, clean and very comfortable. We will definitely repeat if we return in the area.

We felt right at home, we had to leave the place we were in and Miguel streamlined the whole process to get into his home as soon as possible, he was very attentive and I was pending all the time. Also on the day of departure we could be until 6pm, it was quite a host. The apartment was very spacious, had all the details and everything was very clean. In a very quiet area and in a few kilometers from Madrid and Toledo. We will definitely do it again.

The accommodation is well located(20 minutes walk from the city center), it is very bright . Almost opposite, a small restaurant with only regulars offers dishes at €8-10. The subway is a 2 minute walk. Diego has lots of great deals.

Fernando is a lovely host, super responsive and gives advice. The bed is hard and not very big, but ok for 2 nights. Being able to land on the terrace is appreciated. Thank you Fernando

Perfect house, excellent location

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.

The house is great, in an amazing location. A very quiet area to enjoy nature and tranquility with family and friends. The house is equipped with everything you need to spend a few days. The cleanliness, comfort and all the details of the house are a 10. Amazing barbecue theme with everything you need. It is half an hour from Puerto de Navacerrada, where we were able to enjoy the snow with the children. And what can I say about our host Gonzalo. Attentive person, who answers very quickly, resolving all our doubts. Always available for our inquiries. I recommend 💯% a stay in The Corner of your dreams, as well as the kindness and responsibility of your host. Thank you for everything Gonzalo, we'll be back!!!

Thank you very much Nuria and Agustin, everything was great and it was an amazing experience. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.

This is a great space in a real out-of-the-way part of Portugal. Tired of big city tourism? Try this property. Tiny villages dot the hills and you get an old world sense of Portugal here. The pool is the real star of the property here (as are Eric's three dogs, one of which lounged with us each morning) as it overlooks he view of the river. We did use the kayaks as well. It is hard to get to them down a very steep hill with ladders and a bit of minor repelling. Not for those with a bad knee or hip. Which gets me to, accessing the apartments, particularly the lower unit, is tricky. Steep, slanting and uneven steps that can be a little slippery. Perhaps not for the elderly. Hint for improvement would be to upgrade the furnishings and kitchenware. The knives couldn't cut an orange.

Hum... what can I say... I think the best is you experience by yourself. This place is amazing!! THE place to go if you like to be in a peaceful, stress free, beautiful and remarkable Airbnb in Douro. Don't think twice, just go. Thank you so much Maria for sharing your place with us and giving us the chance to enjoy it! cheers

Ivan was very attentive and very kind, he even got us a new barbecue because he knew we were going to use it for a lot of people. The views from the house are a dream, the garden is huge and there is a lot of tranquility and privacy. We had a great time.
