Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was nothing short of wonderful. The rooms were superb, equipped with every modern convenience like a wine fridge, fireplace, and our own pool with a patio overlooking the vineyard. The surroundings were pleasing and warm, although there is a short walk to the dining room from the separate rooms.
Staying at Monverde was an amazing experience. The rooms located within the vineyards were stunning and set the perfect tone upon arrival. The service by the staff was great, very polite, and professional. The location, though a bit away from main Douro wineries, was incredibly quiet and peaceful, nestled within beautiful vineyards. The dining was fine but not a highlight, and the facilities were top-notch.
