Other things to note:
Please note for early and late arrivals, the following charges apply:
For early arrivals between 10.30am and 2.45pm, there is an early check in fee of £25.
For arrivals between 7pm and 11:00pm there is a late check in fee of £30. Our housekeeping team maintain our flats in an immaculate condition and welcomes you after 7pm; they forgo their dinner, their family time so this small fee is to compensate them for working outside their normal hours.
Between 11:00pm and midnight the late check-in fee is of £50 to pay for their taxi back home - after such long hours we do not want our staff to risk missing their last trains.
After midnight the late check in fee goes up to £100. This is to pay their taxi to the flat and back home. Our staff will be waiting for our guest till 2/3am in the morning!
If you re not comfortable with that fee we kindly ask you to collect the keys before 7pm, free of charge.
Please remember that there is no 24/7 reception so we have a person specially waiting for you at the flat. If you are running late without giving any notice to your greeter we may have to charge you £15 per hour. This fee is also applied if any delays obliged the greeter to wait for more than 2 hours (even with notice).
Both fees are payable to our representative prior to your arrival.

Extra laundry will incur an extra charge.

Isolated Location
Situated in an isolated location with fantastic views of the Douro river this is a comfortable property. It is furnished with a homely feel with plenty of room both inside and out. The pool area is well manicured with lots of loungers, a table and chairs. Inside the bedrooms are comfortable, the kitchen well equipped including a large table for meals. The lounge area has two big sofas a coffee table and tv. Overall we had a great stay in the property the only negative was its isolated location meant a long car journey when going out for the day. We would defiantly recommend this property.

What an amazing experience!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful house in the Douro valley, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The house boasts breathtaking views upon the Douro river that made our stay incredibly special. Waking up to the stunning scenery each morning was a highlight of our trip. The location is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the natural beauty of Portugal. The property was equipped with all the amenities we could possibly need. The kitchen was fully stocked, the bedrooms were comfortable, and the living areas were cozy and inviting. Everything was thoughtfully arranged to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Our host was fantastic – very welcoming and always available to assist us. From the moment we booked, they provided detailed information and were quick to respond to any questions we had. Their warm hospitality made us feel right at home and added a personal touch to our stay. Lastly, this house is a gem. If you're looking for a place with stunning views, complete amenities, and a responsive, welcoming host, this is the perfect choice. We can't wait to return!

The house was great in a lovely location. Views were amazing. Good area for peace and quiet but easy 50 minute drive into Porto. Slightly lacking in glasses and crockery, we had to put the dishwasher on regularly. There was a problem with the pool while we were there, and we were unable to use it, which was a great shame as the weather was so good. But owner has been kind enough to compensate us for this. Would recommend the house.

Worth the extra miles to really feel like you've experienced Portugal's Douro Valley
Pristine property and views of the Douro River and Valley. The villa was really spacious and nicely maintained. We shopped locally and mostly ate in because of the views of Gondarem and Midoes. We even saw the Porto Douro River cruise boat and others from our view. We were confused and exasperated having been awake over 24 hours when we findly reached the property as GPS said We Have Arrived when we actually had to drive over 500 meters more. Thankfully Luzia, the property's housekeeper was outside tending to her garden, and directed us to venture up a very steep cobblestone hill to the villa. Watching the videos that Marco and his team sent are paramount. The only suggestion, as We reserve homes versus hotel rooms, is to invest in really good cookware and have spices and other staples available for those that want to enjoy the experience of the Gondarem villa to the fullest. We never return to destinations previously visited but if we did, this would be on top.

Nice stay
The house is OK, very clean and enough spaces for 6 adults. It’s more where it’s situated. Too far from a village with more commodities. The road is very hard to drive in the mountain and far from the highway. Only small cars is more covenient for that kind of roads.

Loved Casa da Marco
All four adults in our party loved this immaculate and lovely house. The grounds and views were magnificent as well as the immediate "neighborhood". Marco and his staff were attentive and responsive to our requests while there. We found a lovely walking trail along the Duoro River just down the hill from the house. We easily took day trips to Porto, Aviero and Penafiel. We were delighted in our visit to Castelo de Paiva as well. Good restaurants, cafes, bakeries. We would stay at Marco's house again.
