Casa De Casal De Loivos

What guests think

At Casa De Casal De Loivos, travellers consistently praise the breathtaking Douro Valley views, warm family run hospitality led by Bernardo and team, and convivial family style dinners that make meeting other guests easy and memorable.

Many also appreciate the relaxing pool, outdoor spaces, and the quiet hilltop setting. Access by car and parking can be tricky on steep, narrow roads, and one guest noted breakfast lacked eggs. A serene, community minded retreat for travellers seeking relaxation in the Douro.

We had a wonderful stay at Casa de Casal de Loivos! The views from the terrace are unrivaled, and we loved sitting out with a glass of wine, while soaking up the sun and the gorgeous Douro Valley from high on the hilltop. We were able to walk down to town by way of the path through the vineyards. While the hike back up took a little more effort, it was very well worth it - especially when we were rewarded with a swim in the pool. We loved how quiet and relaxing it was to be nestled in the hills above the town.

We had a wonderful two nights here. The warmest of welcomes and nothing was too much trouble for Daniel who helped us most of the time and the other staff too. It is wonderfully located for a quiet trip enjoying the spectacular views and outdoor space & pool. The room was basically appointed but comfortable and had a/c. Meals were delicious and it was a very different experience to sit around the table with other guests from around the world. Great wine and port selection too

The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The views from the back of the property are most incredible, leaving the front of the hotel very non-descript. The prepared dinners were great, especially for those of us who did not want to head back down into Pinhao. The breakfast was wonderful, although they lacked eggs. The only real negative is how to get to the property and, less so, the parking. The directions from Pinhao do not reflect the steepness and the very narrow streets that you have to traverse. Finding the actual hotel was quite frustrating.

Our stay at Casa de Casal de Loivos exceeded all our expectations—and I say that in spite of some windy, rainy days! Bernardo was so gracious and helpful. Before we even arrived he was letting us know about road closures and provided directions for the best route. Upon arrival, our bags were brought in for us and he even volunteered to park our car. The complementary snack and wine were delicious and enjoyed in front of a cozy fireplace. Bernardo provided information for hiking, port and wine tastings and restaurants. They provided breakfast and we also chose to have the family style dinner in their dinning room two evenings—it was delicious and the service was impeccable. The common areas and the rooms were spotless and the beds and bedding so comfortable. The staff was always friendly and courteous. As you can tell, we would highly recommend staying at Casa de Casal Loivos! Thank you Bernardo for making our stay so memorable.

The view is stunning. Relaxing around the pool and taking in the view was a very pleasant way to enjoy the beauty of the Douro region. We had a lovely dinner sitting around the grand dining table and visiting with the other guests from around d the world. Driving there and parking is difficult, however. Best to take the boat or train to Pinhao and then take a taxi to the property.

Casa de Casal de Loivos is a magnificent property with glorious views, comfortable rooms and excellent service. Bernardo's family has owned the property for generations and both he and the staff take great pride in taking care of their guests. We took long walks through the vineyards, did a wine and olive oil tasting and enjoyed dinner with the other guests. Big thank you to Daniel who brightened every day with his jovial personality and to Bernardo for his excellent suggestions of things to do in Porto. This was the favorite stop of our weeklong visit to Portugal.

Derudover er det et fantastisk sted som vi har hørt om i mange år. Og det skuffede bestemt ikke. Lokation, personalet, udsigten og fællesspisningen gorde vores ophold mindeværdigt.
