Luxury secluded villa, splendid views, pool, play area, games, cinema, big group
Das Casa do Monte ist ein wunderschön restauriertes portugiesisches Herrenhaus aus dem 18. Jahrhundert, das von weiten Tälern und atemberaubenden Hügeln umgeben ist. Das Hotel befindet sich im Dorf Teixeiró in der Nähe von Mesão Frio im Herzen des unteren Corgo-Gebiets der Portweinstraße und ist ideal gelegen, um das Douro-Tal und das jahrhundertealte Erbe der Weinherstellung zu erkunden.
Die Unterkunft befindet sich in Familienbesitz und richtet sich ausschließlich an große Familien oder Gruppen von Freunden, die gemeinsam Urlaub machen möchten. Gäste finden es genauso einfach, Spaß zu haben wie sich alleine zu entspannen!
Das Haus hat neun Schlafzimmer (5 mit eigenem Bad, 4 teilen sich 2 Bäder) und exquisite Empfangsräume und verfügt über eine Zentralheizung im gesamten Gebäude. Zustell- und Babybetten sind ebenfalls erhältlich.
Kinder und energiegeladene Erwachsene können sich im Außenpool auf gepflegten Rasenflächen neben dem Haus vergnügen. Im Freien können Sie auch Gartenspiele wie Krocket oder Jenga genießen. Oder Sie können durch den Garten spazieren und die lokale Flora bewundern oder einfach auf der Terrasse oder am Pool sitzen und die Aussicht bei einem Glas Wein genießen. Wenn Sie Lust auf einen Aufstieg haben, gehen Sie weiter in die Obstgärten und pflücken Sie Ihre eigenen Früchte der Saison zum Abendessen.
Lieber drinnen sein? Spielen Sie in unserem Spielzimmer Karten, Darts oder Tischfußball oder schlendern Sie im Nachbarzimmer zu einer Partie Billard. Es gibt sogar einen Projektionsraum mit Sitzgelegenheiten im Kinostil (und ja, Sie können Ihr eigenes Popcorn mitbringen!) einen Film schauen! Oder machen Sie einfach Ihre wohlverdiente Pause in einem unserer klassisch eingerichteten und dennoch äußerst komfortablen Wohnzimmer.
Das Frühstück ist inbegriffen, freuen Sie sich also auf köstliches, frisch gebackenes Brot, duftenden Kaffee und viele andere Leckereien! Das Mittagessen auf der Terrasse mit Blick auf den Pool ist normalerweise sehr ansprechend. Zum Abendessen können Sie in unserem luxuriös ausgestatteten Speisesaal mit portugiesischem Geschirr speisen. Oder, wenn Sie weniger formelles Essen bevorzugen, sitzen Sie draußen im Innenhof. Das Anwesen wird oft von den Eigentümern für Familienfeiern oder Partys genutzt, sodass es für große Gruppen voll ausgestattet ist - Sie müssen sich keine Sorgen mehr machen, dass Ihnen das Geschirr ausgeht! Und wenn Sie ein traditionelles portugiesisches Essen probieren möchten, können wir gegen Aufpreis ein paar Gerichte liefern lassen. Oder möchten Sie die lästige Zubereitung von Mahlzeiten ganz vermeiden, indem Sie einen auf portugiesische Küche spezialisierten Hauskoch mit Bedienung am Tisch hinzufügen? Fragen Sie uns nach den verfügbaren Optionen und Kosten.
Ein Hausmädchen sorgt dafür, dass das Anwesen für Sie makellos ist und räumt Ihre Zimmer auf, wenn Sie nicht da sind oder wenn Sie es wünschen. Sie ist sehr diskret, aber wir werden natürlich auch verstehen, wenn Sie es vorziehen, während Ihres Aufenthalts niemanden in der Nähe zu haben.

This place deserves awards for how special it is! My husband and I booked Casa Do Monte for our wedding venue in 2024. We booked it about 9 months in advance and during that time, the owner, Marcus, met with us to discuss logistics and make sure everything related to our wedding was as perfect as possible. His help was never advertised or expected but he is an incredible person who helped make our wedding into the perfect day. We had about 22 guests stay in the house over a 4 day period. Breakfast was always laid out in a beautiful spread every morning by the homemaker, Rosa, who greets you every morning with a bom dia and the warmest smile. Casa Do Monte is also situated in the perfect hopping off spot in the Douro Valley for wine tours. Our wedding party rented 2 15-person shuttle buses that transported us from the house to 2 spectacular wineries within the region.
We can’t express enough the gratitude we have for this place and the people associated with it. This is truly a hidden gem in the Douro Valley and it’s hard to imagine there are many other listings out there that can compete with this one.

We were a large group of 14 friends and stayed at the Casa do Monte Douro for eleven days in June. The villa is not only gorgeous, combining old world character with 21st century comfort, but it was the perfect location from which to explore the Douro Valley and the northern cities, towns and villages of Portugal. Nestled among acres and acres of terraced vineyards, none of us will soon forget the spectacular views, the villa grounds -- a gardener’s delight – as well as the wide array of living spaces and amenities, our favorites among which were the hot tub, the gym, the games room, and the swimming pool.
We started each day with a delicious breakfast prepared by the wonderful Rosa, the villa’s caretaker/housekeeper. Her support and assistance made our stay all the better. Villa owner Marcus is a gracious, responsive, informative, and welcoming host. His suggestions and assistance with arranging experiences such as a local chef to prepare dinner one evening, a curated list of wineries to visit, and advice and assistance in booking other local adventures, made our stay all the more memorable.
For most of us, this was our first trip to Portugal, and we could not have asked for a better introduction to this amazing country and in particular, its wine region. As seasoned villa-experience travelers, we highly recommend Casa do Monte Douro.
Date: June 2024

We had a fabulous time at casa do Monte! The villa is perfect for large families, well equipped and the grounds are beautiful. Marcus was very accommodating and even arranged for us to have a traditional Portuguese BBQ. I highly recommend this villa.

We have stayed at numerous VRBO properties in a variety of countries and without exception, this was the most extraordinary experience to date. The communication with Marcus, the property owner, was exceptional and there was never a moment where he did not respond in a timely and wonderfully detailed fashion. Casa do Monte is an exquisite Villa loaded with charm, thoughtful detail, and welcoming comfort. We literally do not have enough adjectives to accurately describe how much we all enjoyed this entire, memorable experience. We are already discussing how we can get back there as it is a property well worth a repeat visit. Thank you so much!

Our experience at Marcus’s house was perfect. The house is beautiful - a mix of old and new that has so much character. The pictures don’t do it justice, it is decorated tastefully in a classic manner but the important things are v new. The bathrooms are extremely clean and modern from a fixtures perspective. The water pressure and temp is wonderful. Also almost every bedroom has en suite bathrooms in addition to the common bathrooms so it feels almost like a hotel in that sense.
The kitchen is large and equipped w everything if you want to make large group dinners as we did. The breakfast provided was simple but diverse enough to make everyone happy (incl 4 kids!) and v plentiful.
There are so many common areas/rooms that I couldn’t find the gym the first morning even though I had been shown it the day before! The outdoor area and pool were also great (incl an outdoor bathroom), I only wish it had been warmer weather when we were visiting.
Rosa the caretaker and Marcus the owner were both v responsive and prompt anytime we had questions about the house or area. The location was very convenient, definitely on the Porto side of Douro valley so depends what towns you want to visit, but we were able to have 4 days of nice day trips all in under 1hr drive each way (Lamego, Six Senses, DOC restaurant, Amarante, Régua).
Our group of 2 large families and 4 adult friends had a wonderful stay here and would wholeheartedly recommend it for adults and families alike.

Our stay at Casa do Monte was perfect from start to finish. Marcus was extremely responsive in the planning stages, helping us plan our trip with activities, transport and catering. His recommendations were all absolutely spot on and ensured we had an excellent experience in the Douro Valley.
The house itself is beautiful, very large and spacious, extremely well-equipped, and exceptionally clean. If anything, the photos don't do it justice! We really can't recommend staying here enough.

What a wonderful property!
The experience of communicating with the owner was actually one of the enjoyable aspects of the stay. Marcus was a source of great advice and was always available to converse with. His suggestions turned what would have been a nice stay into an overall magnificent experience. We were a party of 14 old friends who have travelled extensively, all of us were impressed with the casa. The building is spacious, the facilities of a high standard and the surrounding delightful. Special mention must be made of Rosa, the housekeeper, who prepared a great breakfast every morning for us and despite a bit of a language barrier ( our Portuguese was dreadful ! :) ) she managed to look after us like family. We do not have a contrary thing to say about Casa Do Monte, it was more than we expected. We do apologise to the rest of the valley for our singing some nights ! ;) If you need a base to explore the Douro, get your friends together and contact Marcus. this place is where you need to stay.

The property was stunning. We were an extended family getting together for the first time since the pandemic. The property had so many facilities to suit everyone. The cinema room was popular especially for the women’s World Cup. The gym and jacuzzi were also well used. The pool was great. And as there was a heatwave the week we were there the Air Con was much appreciated. The kitchen was well equipped to cook for a crowd. The breakfast was lovely. A holiday we will never forget. Thank you Marcus and Rosa, especially for organising the birthday cake. Nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended.

The perfect house for large groups. It is very spacious. Rosa looked after us with a delicious breakfast every morning. Marcus was always available by Whatsapp for any queries/information on excursions and always responded immediately. The weather was very hot so we chose to stay at the property and enjoy the amenities it provided (great A/C too). Lovely mountain scenery. Thank you Marcus and Rosa for an unforgettable week!

We enjoyed everything about this amazing property. Marcus was extremely approachable and very helpful leading up to our visit, and helped arrange a few excursions in the Douro Valley and also a splendid meal at the villa for our group of 10 guests.
Rosa the housekeeper was a treasure and made our stay all the more pleasant.
The villa was perfect for our group of friends, there is so much space for private time and also lots of opportunities to share time at the pool and common living areas.
All in all a very memorable vacation and we hope to return one day to this beautiful region and villa.

Cannot recommend this place enough. The photos don’t do the property justice - it has everything you need for a group holiday, in an idyllic location. The hosts were attentive and helpful throughout the booking process and were contactable for any issues during our stay. Marcus went the extra mile to help us organise transport & a Portuguese BBQ which helped make our stay perfect. Would definitely recommend to any considering a stay!

We had an amazing stay at Casa Do Monte. The house was extremely clean and well-managed. We thought that it was even nicer in person than the pictures could show. Marcus was beyond helpful in organizing events for us, and even put up with us when we decided to move some things around last minute.
The breakfast every morning was nice to look forward to, and the dinners that Marcus arranged for us at the house were fantastic. Highly recommend staying here if you have the chance.

A large group of family and friends (19) stayed at Casa do Monte in August 22 for a week and had the most wonderful time. The villa was exceptional in every way. The weather was extremely hot and the air conditioned rooms and pool were perfect. The host, Marcus, was extremely helpful and very responsive. He arranged a catered meal one evening that was incredible - even the kids got involved being shown by the chef the best way to cook a steak!
The housekeeper Rosa was so helpful, preparing breakfast for us every morning.
The villa had everything we could want and I cannot think of anything that could have been there that wasn't.
We would absolutely recommend this property to anyone and we all hope to be back some day in the future.

The villa itself is great and much bigger than we were expecting. It was extremely flexible and suited out multigenerational group perfectly. The kids loved the cinema room and the pool table, especially. Communication with the team was simple from booking all the way through to the end of our stay, with any queries or questions dealt with extremely promptly. They gave some great recommendations for restaurants and vineyards to visit. They were always on hand to help which was great. The breakfast was really appreciated by everyone.

Fabulous property with attentive staff
We were a group of 18, six couples and three children between the ages of two and a half and seven months old.
The property owner and staff were wonderful, they answered all our questions before the trip, helped arrange activities and meals, and were communicative throughout the stay.
The property is huge, very spacious and even as a large group we never felt on top of one another.
Air-conditioning throughout the property is a huge plus.
The playroom offered lots for the children and the provision of travel cots meant we could pack lighter.
We will not hesitate to return, thank you for a lovely trip.

Our perfect wedding
My husband and I booked this properties during our engagement to host a small and intimate DIY wedding celebration. Since then, we have had the absolute pleasure of getting to know the host Marcus, who became our de facto wedding planner.
He carefully and thoughtfully helped us to select flowers and a chef; he organized a wedding-day yoga class; lead a wine tasting of classic Douro wines for 29 attendees; liaised with vendors such as our photographer, helping us to order food for the days outside of the wedding; and, most importantly, made all of our guests feel at home. To say that he went above and beyond would be an understatement.
Casa do Monte's staff are kind and excellent at their jobs, far exceeding our expectations. Each day we awoke to a clean house and lovely breakfast. The care that has been taken to maintain the property and gardens is really exceptional and greatly contributed to our stay.
Marcus' attention to detail is reflected in everything that he does--our wedding truly came together seamlessly thanks to his contributions in the several months leading up to our stay, and throughout the three days that we were there. Our guests were bursting with compliments about Casa do Monte, and especially the exceptional host that was Marcus.
I very much encourage you to stay at Casa do Monte--if your experience is even half as good as ours (though we know it will be exceptional) then you are in for a dream. Thank you to the whole team at Casa do Monte for making our stay one that we will never forget.

Belle maison riche d’histoire
Très belle maison bien entretenue et accueillante. Idéale pour les grandes familles. Tout est prévu pour le confort de ses hôtes. Chaque matin un petit déjeuner complet et copieux. Peignoirs, serviettes et chaussons douillets dans chaque chambre, douche et shampooing dans chaque salle de bain ,serviettes de bain pour chacun à la piscine. Nous avons passé un superbe séjour malgré le temps très incertain. De la salle de billard et baby-foot à la salle home cinéma, de la piscine ,la terrasse, le barbecue et la piste de danse notre séjour fut bien rythmé . Reste le jacuzzi ou certains ont pu se détendre. Un très grand merci à Rosa et sa famille toujours aux petits soins pour nous. Merci à Maria pour sa grande disponibilité. Un bon souvenir également du petit café /mercado où les patrons ont été accueillants, et plein de gentillesse à notre égard. Nous recommanderont fortement cette destination autour de nous.

The best 4 days in the Douro Valley ever !
The property was better than advertised . Very warming comfortable house with fabulous amenities. Met by wonderful hosts at check in, Vania and Maria. They were very informative and excited to show us the house and all its wonderful attributes, whether it be the pool, game room , movie theater, gym or children playroom ( although we didn't need as it was an adult Vacation). It even has a small historic chapel on site.
The 9 rooms were spacious and comfortable, with 5 of them having ensuite baths and the remains 4 bedrooms sharing 2 baths.
The continental breakfast spread , prepared and served by Rosa, in the morning was expansive. With coffee, juice, cereal , various fruits and fruit salad, hams, cheeses, breads, various jams and butter and yogurt selection. All could be had either in main dining room or on their magnificent patio overlooking the valley.
When we came back for the evenings, as we were a big group (15), Marcus and Carla organized a nice couple ( Paula and Ricardo) to come in to prepare dinner for us. Paula prepared in the kitchen and Ricardo provided the grilled entres outside.
We dined both outside and inside and could not have had better meals and ambience. Another plus was Marcus provided wine and beer for purchase, so we didn't have to travel from the property to stock up. I will DEFINITELY stay here again.

Fabulous stay - excellent service
We were a British group of 21 (12 adults and 9 children between the ages of 11 months and 11 years old) who spent a week here over Easter 2019. The house was smashing - hugely spacious, clean, and full of amazing spaces for children and adults to hang out. The kids particularly enjoyed the piano, hot tub and the WiFi-powered rainbow lighting in the swimming pool. The daily breakfasts of croissants, jams, cereals as cold cuts were perfect and Rosa and Vania, the two local managers who were at our disposal at a moment’s notice, could no do enough for us. They dealt with every little niggle we had and served up an amazing traditional Portuguese dinner for all of us on our final night. Location-wise, the village is a bit remote but we were only 15mins from the Douro riverbank and local towns with shops, museums, wineries and other places of interest. Strongly recommend!

Amazing country retreat, with fantastic amenities and service
We booked for my 50th birthday with about 10 friends. The house is amazing, huge and has everything you could want. We could have happily spent the whole week there, but it also serves as a nice center for daytrips. Some of our group went into Porto, others went on a wine tasting tour in the Douro, others went on a day trip to Braga and Guimaraes. There are small grocery stores nearby and a few local restaurants. Carla, Tiago, Viana and Rosa did a fantastic job of seeing to our every need. From arranging a cab ride for someone from the Porto Airport, to suggesting local restaurants, organizing our wine tour, or just getting us more rolls at breakfast, the team is awesome and extremely responsive.
Also, we could have fit another 10 people in the house. :) I highly recommend Casa Do Monte to any large group looking to spend some quality time together.

Spectacular
I don’t really write reviews but we loved this villa. It is nestled in a quiet little village up in the mountains near the Douro valley, looking out onto vineyards.
The villa is large which means that even in really large groups everyone can enjoy themselves. The older generation can find seclusion, tranquility and quiet in the internal courtyard or the thick walled rooms that keep the house cool in the summer heat, even when the children are enjoying the pool and being allowed to have fun, which usually involves a lot of noise (or is that only my kids). There was lots of together family time with enough space to have family meals under the grape vine canopy and we had family badminton and swimming competitions and finished the night in the jacuzzi. I agree with the other reviews that the intention has been to explore the local area but the house has everything for everyone so only managed the local village Mesao Frio and Amarante (beautiful but that’s another story) and a long walk up into the mountains to a restaurant.
Rosa the house keeper is lovely and incredibly helpful. She doesn’t speak English but we conversed in French as my Portuguese is non existent (hooray for google translate!)

Incredible hospitality, easy of the entire rental transaction and a property that amazed each day with new features / amenities made our 4 day stay memorable. Highly recommend for large groups who want a comfortable base to explore the Douro Valley. We enjoyed the pool each day as well as the patio outside for outdoor meals and games. There are too many amenities to list! Our group of 11 enjoyed the village setting and local breakfast each day. Our hosts gave us great advice for local sights and hikes. The only caution would be trying to get your vehicle into the back parking - super narrow. Front parking is much wider and on the main road. Marvellous stay. Can’t wait to be back!

What a place!!
Oh my, what can I say about this place!
I was looking for a place big enough to host myself and bunch of friends for my 40th and I came across Casa Do Monte. The pictures and the reviews don’t shout loud enough about how fabulous this place really is!! – From the most amazing landscapes surrounding the house to the ample comfort and tranquility once you enter the compound!
The house itself has everything you need – the funny thing was that our plan initially was to do some activities locally but we ended up staying at the house the whole time as it literally has all the amenities you need for a long weekend away.
This place is HUGE – It has generously sized bedrooms and bathrooms, a number of living areas, a massive kitchen with tons of storage and equipment. Then there’s the cinema, Jacuzzi, game room and of course the pool as you step outside. The décor is very nice and the place has a lot of quaint features which I liked.
A typical “day in the life” during our stay consisted of
- Waking up to a yummy breakfast provided – which is included in the price
- Then we would head to the pool for some sunbathing and cocktail sipping, with the good music flowing in the background
- We would have a late lunch in the form of a BBQ done in the designated area outside and tons of food cooked in the massive kitchen, whilst the drinks keep on flowing and music is playing
- In the evening we would hit the cinema room, we would get some karaoke on, then we would throw some music on and dance all night long – only to repeat the same pattern the following day.
Some key highlights
- The local food is sooo good; the supermarkets (especially Continente – which is like 20 mins drive) have the most amazing fish and meat counter – so fresh and so tasty. The local produce is also very good
- The caretakers were very friendly and extremely responsive. The fact that they live next door helps but they really went that extra mile to ensure that we had the most amazing stay
Highly recommend this place. Had we stayed a bit longer we would have taken advantage of some local attractions for sure, but we had a super time nonetheless.

Incredible villa, excellent facilities, beautiful views and setting..
Mesao Frio is such a beautiful place. We were all very taken with everything, from the building, the setting, the surroundings, the facilities and the hospitality, i dont think we could have asked for anything more. it was a great way to celebrate my 40th birthday and certainly very memorable.. Only an hour away from Porto and a beautiful drive especially the last 20 minutes or so, stunning scenery. As it's a family home it's incredibly well equipped with lots of fridge space for food and drink, a dining room with plenty of room to comfortably sit 20 people. Things like the kids playroom, games room were all great hidden bonuses too. Amazing views across the valley from the pool. We were very sad to leave and would love to return one day..

Férias espectaculares.
Excelente. Um espaço perfeito para férias em família. A casa tem tudo o que é preciso para se passar uns dias de relax. Super bem equipada. Não faltou nada. Tudo pensado ao pormenor, desde os electrodomésticos até às toalhas de piscina bordadas, passando pelo quarto dos brinquedos, a sala de cinema e o jacuzi. Áreas espaçosas e com requinte, quartos grandes com casas de banho totalmente equipadas. Espaços de lazer encantadores como o recanto exterior ao centro da casa, a sala do piano, a biblioteca e até a capelinha. Não faltou mesmo nada. Todos os anos fazemos férias em família (cerca de 24 pessoas) e este foi o melhor sítio de sempre. Paisagem lindíssima. Sossego total. 5 estrelas.

Retiro espetacular para uns dias em família
Foram cinco dias simplesmente inesquecíveis na Casa do Monte!!!😎 A calma que nos transmite faz com que tenhamos a sensação de que o tempo parou e a agitação da grande cidade está a milhares de Kms! É o sítio ideal para "desligar" de todas as preocupações e passar momentos incríveis em família. E acreditem que a diversão é garantida para todas as idades! A piscina com uma vista deslumbrante para o vale, as instalações confortáveis e acolhedoras, a mesa de snooker, o pátio interior que convida à leitura de um bom livro... E foi fantástico jogar crocket pela primeira vez! 🎉 É muito bom ter a oportunidade de desfrutar de um lugar assim! Se vou voltar? Sem dúvida! Por mim fazia já as malas!!!
Muito obrigada aos proprietários pela experiência que me (nos) proporcionaram!!!

Casa maravilhosa
Estive nesta casa 3 dias com a família o que foi muito pouco para uma casa tão maravilhosa pois tem de tudo para que possamos passar umas férias magnificas sem sair de casa. Aconselho a qualquer grupo seja de família ou amigos a passar uns dias nesta magnífica casa. Para o ano lá estarei mas desta vez uma semana. Adorei a casa o senhor é a senhora que nos acompanham na recepção são pessoas muito simpáticas e sempre prontas para o que nós precisarmos.

Wonderful place in the heart of Douro region
Fantastic place for a family or for a group of friends to celebrate a special occasion or just to rest during a few days.
The landscape is a must and the space surrounding/inside the house is great to have fun or just to do nothing else than sunbathing, contemplate the nature, “discover” old techniques to produce olive oil with a complete set of machinery “ready to run”.
The house is very well equipped in terms of comfort and diversion - two pianos, cinema room with real cinema chairs and a giant screen (!), Jacuzzi, foosball, snooker table, running machine, social games, … and of course, the pool outside. The party near the pool was amazing!
House decor is tasteful and makes it a very welcoming space.
Very clean inside and outside.
I do recommend!

Perfect for a week-long getaway!
This house has it all! My friends and I (35yo+) were all looking for a place to spend a week in the North of Portugal when we came across this gem. Words can’t describe it and the pictures don’t do it enough justice. As soon as we got there (about an hour away from Porto airport), we were blown away. The sheer size of the house is impressive, but once you walk into the main garden, you are taken aback. The swimming pool and the view are incredible.
Once inside - and after many jokes about getting lost in the house - we settled in. Every room had its own ensuite bathroom. After some looking around we found the house’s sound system, which incredibly played everywhere around the house - even the bedrooms if you want it to!
But the Casa do Monte’s cherry on top is the cinema room. As we were planning to stay most of the time in the house, the guys decided they’d bring along a PS4 for us to play at night. And what a great idea that was!
Our time here was mostly split between lazing around the pool, which has an amazing poolside bar (not shown in pictures) with yet another great sound system, cooking massive meals to stuff ourselves before relaxing in the jacuzzi, and watching films and playing playstation in the cinema. Oh, there’s also a pool table, darts and foosball, so the fun was never-ending.
I must say, we had the time of our lives - exactly what we were looking for. 10/10! Thank you!
p.s. there are great picnic spots in the hills around. Look for a barbecue spot near Mafomodes, you’ll love it!
