Quinta do Pego, Douro Valley Hotels
Small boutique hotel with simple rooms, stellar views, an outdoor pool, a wine shop, and a restaurant
Overview
Beyond the immediate allure of Quinta do Pego, the surrounding region beckons with cultural and historical attractions. The Douro Museum and the Lamego Museum, housed within a magnificent 17th-century palace, are both within a convenient 30-minute drive, offering insightful glimpses into the area’s rich heritage. For those interested in pre-historic art, the captivating 25,000-year-old cave drawings and carvings of Vila Nova de Foz Côa are located just under 1.5 hours away, presenting a unique opportunity to explore ancient artistic expression.
This former private residence has been transformed into an intimate boutique hotel, featuring approximately 10 rooms and a delightful two-bedroom cottage. The accommodations are thoughtfully designed with simplicity in mind, characterized by neutral color palettes, elegant wooden furnishings, and understated decoration. The true highlight of the rooms is undoubtedly the breathtaking view, as nearly all offer stunning panoramas of the majestic Douro River. The cottage, with its fully equipped kitchen, is particularly well-suited for larger groups or families seeking to explore the region while enjoying the comforts of home. The ambiance and room sizes are generally more tailored towards adult travelers, while the bathrooms offer a touch of luxury with marble finishes, heated floors, and convenient tub-shower combinations.
Indulge in the unparalleled vistas from the numerous common areas, with the infinity pool arguably being the most impressive, seemingly merging seamlessly with the flowing waters of the river. Savor a glass of exquisite local wine on the terrace, relax at the bar with a refreshing drink, or venture to the on-site wine shop to discover and sample the estate’s own acclaimed wines, ports, and other regional delicacies, such as honey and olive oil. The restaurant at Quinta do Pego offers a diverse culinary experience, serving international cuisine for lunch, including fresh salads and flavorful burgers. In the evenings, the dinner menu is thoughtfully curated and changes nightly, showcasing a delightful array of authentic regional dishes, providing a taste of the Douro Valley’s gastronomic heritage.
Hotel Information
Wifi – Check On RequestPortugal
From the seemingly never-ending festivals to the diverse range of cultures that have made Portugal their home over the centuries, to the simple but delightful culinary experiences, the vibrant heritage and cultural diversity of this country captivate travelers.
When is the best time to visit?
Portugal is a year-round destination, but if possible, travelers should aim to visit in the springtime when the almond blossoms and wildflowers cover the countryside.
Where should you go in Portugal?
Experience the traditional Alfama neighborhood of Lisbon before it will be absorbed by the rest of the bustling city’s culture, tour the ancient ruins of Sintra and historic Evora, walk along the bluffs of Europe’s most southwestern point at Cabo de São Vicente, and relax on the beaches of Ilha de Tavira.
How many days do I need?
There are too many destinations that are must-sees in Portugal to see the country in less than a week. At least 10 days is best.
Getting Around Portugal
Although smaller than neighboring Spain and France, distances in Portugal are still significant—traveling from Porto to Faro, for example, takes five hours by car. Flying is a quick and comfortable way to get between the country's major cities, with the largest airport being Lisbon Airport (LIS). Going by bus or train are also options here.
