Nothing at all! Only suggestion would be slightly larger double beds, and to add some light snacks to the very generous wine tasting!

This place is absolutely superb! From the initial contact prior to our visit, to the final farewell there is a commitment to excellence and attention to detail in everything. The location is charming - nestled in the vineyards and a short walk down to the river. There's a lovely range of amenities to use. The staff are totally wonderful - constantly attentive to ensure everything is perfect and to help with anything. The food and wines are superb. Highly recommend the wine tasting with Pedro - a master of his craft. The Quinta is beautiful, lovely design , gorgeous rooms and views, and relatively small so never feels overcrowded or over busy at all. We were expecting a lovely place but this surpassed our high expectations and then some. Its pretty close to perfection! Cannot recommend highly enough.

Beautiful location

We loved everything! If there was a slight negative it would have to be that the “bathroom” is very small and that the basin is in the bedroom but it certainly didn’t detract from our stay!

We were blown away by this property - it’s really beautiful! The building has been renovated & furnished beautifully, the owner & staff are incredibly friendly and helpful and its position along the Douro River is stunning! Wow …. the wines and food were absolutely DELICIOUS - the chef is top class! We’ve fallen in love with this spot and will be back (all the way from South Africa)!

A beautiful, intimate, family owned and operated property. The staff were exceptionally nice and the views spectacular. Food was fabulous with a different dinner menu each night. Easy access to local train station whether traveling upstream or downstream to Porto for the day. Highly recommend this venue.

Been here for my third time and this place is absolutely amazing in every regard. What is most impressive is how kind, attentive and sweet they are. The food is also amazing from breakfast buffet to dinner everything is so delicious. We had a special dinner in the greenhouse and the 8-course menu was top notch. Two thumbs up and looking forward to staying again many more times.

The room was super clean with a beautiful decoration and attention to little details. Comfortable bed, very quiet. I would like the bathroom to have some heating because it was a bit cold. Also, for this price per night, I would expect the small wine tasting activity to be included in the price.

The hotel is in a very nice location, though further away from the main "towns" of the region. All the common areas are excellent, the heated pool a real treat, AMAZING breakfast and something worth mentioning, they offer many indoor activities like board games and a pool table (important when the weather is not the best like in our case). Everyone is extremely polite and helpful! We loved our stay there!

I cannot recommend Quinta De S. Bernardo enough. The entire property is absolutely magical. The view from anywhere on the property of the Douro River is breathtaking. We stayed in the Private pool villa and it was very spacious with electric curtains you could raise in the morning with a remote to a perfect view of the mountains and river while enjoying an early morning in bed. The staff was also incredible. All of them were very personable and so accommodating. The breakfast buffet was delicious. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly. The dinners were also delicious. We never ate lunch but I am sure it is just as wonderful.

Beautiful restored Quinta in a bucolic setting with professional and kind staff. Would love to return in better weather to enjoy the outdoors. The wine and food was excellent and coupled with attentive but unfussy service we had a wonderful stay. I recommend a stay without hesitation.

There is a better way to get to the property than the one we chose. Stay on the N108!

The intimacy, the friendly and attentive staff, the site on the river, and available amenities.

Absolutely delighted by our stay. The staff and facilities went above and beyond, ensuring a seamless and charming getaway in a locale where the true beauty just can’t be captured by mere photos. Plus, the wine tour was not only a delightful journey through numerous tastings but also an unexpected lesson in the finer points of wine appreciation - leaving us wishing for just a few more blissful days!"
