Wonderful stay--highly recommend.

We had a most wonderful stay at Casa de Canilhas in the Douro Valley. Our room overlooked the Douro, we had lovely sunny weather, and sitting on the balcony was so peaceful. We walked into town for dinner one evening and bought food at the grocery to eat on the balcony the second evening. Most highly recommend.

Casa de Canilhas is the most beautiful property. Staying here was like a dream. The view of the Douro valley & river are breathtaking. The rooms have a rustic vineyard feel, but are beautifully upgraded with modern standards. The infinity pool was perfect temperature & overlooking the valley of grape vines. The daily breakfast was delicious and so fresh. More than enough. the staff was very pleasant & have the property in pristine condition and well maintained. I can’t wait to come back.

Wineyard tour

Spectacular scenery. Our room with balcony was great. We sat there in the evenings with some wine and just enjoyed the landscape. Couple OK restaurants in walking distance and several wine yards close by to visit by car.

A Dream to Relax In

Such a relaxing, elegant respite from an enchanting day in the Douro Valley...of course. With an salt water infinity pool and picnic breakfast delivered to the room, and a million dollar (Euro?) view of the Douro River, surrounded by vinyards; and friendly, responsive staff...it doesn't get better than this.

8/10 Very good

Casa de Canilhas is a tucked away treasure in the heart of the Douro valley. A bit hard to find at first but once you're there it's worth a visit. There are no common indoor areas so you stay in your room or on a private terrace but can share the gorgeous outdoor pool. Breakfast is served to you in your room. Unfortunately, there was work being done in the building next to my casita: the noise and radio started at 8 AM which detracted from the peace and magic of the area

8/10 Very good

The property is all about the views, which are amazing. The infinity pool is gorgeous. We were told we had a room with a view. We actually had a room with no windows, only a side door that opened onto a patio which had gorgeous views, but not the room itself. Breakfast in the morning was excellent served on the patio. The room had spotty wifi. Better wifi was available in the public living room. The property is far from almost everything. To get to it are a lot of narrow, winding roads. The little town of Masao Frio had very few restaurant choices. The next closest town is 20 minutes on scary roads for driving at night. The staff were less than helpful and not all of them friendly. We were told we did not need a dinner reservation at their recommended place if we got to town before 7:30. At 7:15 the restaurant said their next available table was after 9 PM. We were told at check-in that we had to prepay with cash, no credit cards accepted. Lucky we just about had enough cash; we were not told in advance.
