We had the most amazing stay at the villa. It looks amazing in the pictures but is even more beautiful in reality. The villa had everything you needed including a fully stocked kitchen of appliances and all towels and bedding. It was extremely clean and well maintained.We absolutely loved the villa and the way it was set out. Cooking meals was sociable as everyone could be involved. The pool was amazing and well kept and our boys loved the football grassed area. We spent most of our holiday at the villa as we didn’t have any reason to go anywhere but we did venture out for a couple of day trips and there is lots to do around the area but you will need a vehicle to get around. The villa is in a very peaceful area which was so relaxing and just what we had hoped for. The owners were lovely and ensured we found our way to the villa as it was dark by the time we left the airport. They showed us around the villa when we arrived and ensured we were fully settled in and knew how to work the air conditioning and lighting before they left. Aurestina was so helpful and gave us advice around the area as well as being very responsive to any questions by messaging throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this villa and would really love to go back some time in the future. A great place to enjoy with family and friends in a large group.

Beautiful property. Very remote but we were happy with that! The children loved the pool area. Host were very good at communicating. Really well equiped kitchen. Would highly recommend hiring a chef if you wanted a special meal instead of dining out.

Nice house, the description is pretty accurate. Quite comfortable for 8 people. We stayed in the mid of summer; the pool was very warm. The river was also warm and good for swimming. The things to pay attention to: - during hot days A/C works to full capacity. - the closest store is 10-15 min away, not walkable - if you are uncomfortable driving steep up/down hill, and sharp turns, consider staying elsewhere.

We had a fantastic stay. The house is spacious and well equipped, with tremendous views. The hosts were welcoming when we arrived. We loved eating under the pergola, sitting by the pool and under the trees in the hot afternoons, and paddling over to the beach in the early evening. We stocked up at local supermarkets and ate in every evening. We loved visiting Pala, Ribadouro and the Bestanca valley, the Paiva walkways and beaches.if the weather had been cooler and we had longer we would have ventured further up river but drive times are quite long- so we will have to come back!
