"The pictures on Expedia and their website do not do justice to this place. It is a very impressive working winery and the rooms are well appointed. Breakfast and dinner in the restaurant were excellent though service was mixed when it was busy. My only complaint is that the ‘smoking area’ for diners is close to the outdoor terrace and with the prevailing wind it meant that you could smell and taste the cigaretttes at that end of the terrace - not pleasant when you are not used to it. I heard a number of diners complain about it. (Please move the smoking area, as it would make a very good experience perfect!) I would also recommend the walks around the vineyards that are described in the information booklet - though the red route is very steep up, the views are worth it."

"Beautiful hotel/bed&breakfast, centrally located for touring the area, spectacular views & friendly, helpful staff. The family owners made a welcoming jewel for visitors. "

"This is a great place. It’s high on the hillside overlooking the vineyards. There is a beautiful view right outside the front door. I would recommend you get a room with a balcony. This is a smaller hotel that is relatively new and well kept. Parking is underground. We recommend this hotel and enjoyed our stay. "

"The location and the view. The staff were friendly and as always make the difference!"

"A magical place. Everything about it is out of this world. From the room to the service to the food to the spa to the client experience team. "

"If you have a car, and have the good fortune to be traveling in the Douro Valley, this place is not to be missed. It is a bit hard to get to, but well worth the effort. Fantastic setting, beautiful rooms and amenities, and 5-star service. This is a family-run guesthouse, and Maria knows the area, the history, the products, and the hospitality business. Just a gem. I regret that I didn’t build in a day just to relax, visit one or 2 of the nearby (5 minute drive) wineries, and relax by the pool with the spectacular view of the Valley. Casa do Santo receives my highest recommendation. "

"Beautiful property with great views, excellent staff. Convenient walk to town and at least one or two Quinta's (vineyards). Lovely pool and deck. Outdoor patio bar. Only not: breakfast and dinner menu pricey. But food excellent."

"Feels brand new, with fantastic Spa, two beautiful pools and very comfortable room. Just amazing value in a lovely town ideally situated to visit the Douro area."
