to get started.

Our room was fabulous and because of the property's location was quiet- we slept really well. The staff was excellent

Kay, Canada

It was peaceful and comfortable Lovely home stay Quality breakfast 20min walk to local cafe

Jenny, United Kingdom

Good breakfast; Helena was very helpful. A lovely and tranquil place to stay, well outside of Porto but only a 15 min drive from the airport. However, the city was easy to get to, with the nearest Metro station being only a 5-10 min drive away with plenty of parking. It was then a 40 min ride (on the slow metro!) to get to the centre of Porto.

Julie, United Kingdom

The owner and staff were so helpful in every detail. We will always return!

Kim, United States of America

Very charming country farm house with many period antique pieces. Loved the old rustic kitchen.

Jeffrey, United States of America

Helena was a wonderful host and we really enjoyed staying in a traditional Portuguese country home.

Nina, South Korea

It's right on the Camino but with a long set back so there is no road noise. The location is great. It's a quiet, relaxing and beautiful farm. The hostess Helena is graciousness personified. She meets the pilgrim's every need, and with such ease. Laundry is done on premise at no extra charge. She offers to order and pick up dinner from a good restaurant. Early breakfast is no problem. Breakfast is generously provisioned. She even got us lactose free milk! The place is comfortable and relaxing. The room is huge with a good size bathroom featuring a tub. I highly recommend this place. It's the graciousness that makes one feel so at home and at ease.

Caminante, United States of America

The accommodateion buildings are based around a very large, attractive old courtyard. It's traditional but stylish - with brand new bathrooms. You can be independent and come and go, it is not like being in someone's house. There is a little kitchen with fridge for guests to use. Comfortable bed. It was somehow all much nicer than we had anticipated!

Suzanne, United Kingdom

Everything about my stay at Casa Mindela was perfect. Run by he most fabulous host. I loved every single minute! ❤️

Not an actual guesthouse, but rather a hearty portugese family opening the spacious and comfortable attic of their beautiful beach house. I was rewarded with portugese hospitality in a familiar atmosphere, not lacking anything, including amazing food. They helped with all the onwards organization for caminho portuges.

My husband and I were walking the Portuguese Camino. Casa Mandela was like a oasis after a very long day of walking. Elena was very professional and Even offered to pick us up after our dinner, because we were walking, she didn’t want us to walk home in the dark. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would highly recommend her guest house for any body walking the Camino or visiting the area.

I arrived at the airport quite late and I didn't know that all taxi drivers were in the midst of a major strike. The wonderful owners pulled a few strings to find me transport at such a late hour. They were so kind and helpful!

Because no close by restaurants, host called in order, picked up and served us in her dining room, providing wine, bread with wonderful spreads. Great breakfast too! This is hands down our favorite stay of about 40 days walking.

I stayed here for one night with my father while walking the camino. We had a brilliant time and I would strongly recommend this to anyone. This old farm house has been beautifully restored. It was the home of the current owner’s grandfather and you can tell it has been restored with love and attention. We had an extremely warm welcome. As other reviewers mention, there are no restaurants very close by but you can order a meal and delicious wine which is served to you in the restaurant. For us dinner was very social as we got to speak with other people also walking the camino. Other reviewers mentioned noisy planes in the morning - I didn’t hear anything, we had a great sleep!
