About this house rental
Summary:
Discover Douro Garden by Portugal Active, a charming villa located in Avintes, where modern comfort meets the natural beauty of the Douro River.
Featuring four spacious bedrooms, including a relaxing master suite, this home offers breathtaking panoramic river views.
Enjoy unforgettable moments in the terraced garden that stretches down to the riverbank, prepare meals in the barbecue area decorated with traditional Portuguese tile art, or unwind in the cozy living room with a fireplace.
Just 15 minutes from Porto and the famous wine cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia, this air-conditioned property is the perfect retreat for families, offering a fully equipped kitchen, private garage, and Wi-Fi.
The Space:
Douro Garden by Portugal Active is spread across two floors connected by a spiral staircase with solid wood details. The upper floor features the social area, including a living room with a contemporary fireplace, comfortable sofas, and a dining table, decorated with modern artwork. French doors open onto balconies with privileged views of the Douro River. The spacious kitchen is fully equipped and features corner windows offering stunning views of the opposite riverbank.
The lower floor houses four air-conditioned bedrooms with wooden flooring. The master suite includes a double bed, built-in wardrobe, and a private bathroom with a bathtub and granite vanity. There are two additional double bedrooms and a family room equipped with bunk beds, a single bed, books, and games. The house also includes a full bathroom and a guest restroom.
Outside, the highlight is the terraced garden descending to the river, a covered seating area decorated with traditional tile murals, a charcoal barbecue, and outdoor dining spaces perfect for enjoying the scenery.
Guest Access:
Guests have exclusive access to the entire property, including the garden and all indoor amenities. Portugal Active’s concierge service is available 24/7 to assist with all your needs, from organizing local tours to booking private chef services. Please request any additional services at least 72 hours in advance.
The Neighborhood:
Avintes is a peaceful parish on the southern bank of the Douro River, famous for its Broa de Avintes, a traditional dark bread well worth trying at local bakeries. The area is quiet and residential, ideal for those seeking to escape the city's hustle and bustle while remaining close to major attractions. The house sits directly on the riverbank, surrounded by greenery and offering a countryside atmosphere just minutes from urban life. It is a safe, family-friendly area with local restaurants, convenience stores, and cafés nearby.
Getting Around:
Getting to Douro Garden is simple and convenient. Guests traveling by car can enjoy free and secure parking in the private on-site garage. Located in Avintes, the property provides easy access to major attractions, just a 15-minute drive from Porto’s historic center and the wine cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia. Public transportation is also available, with nearby bus stops connecting to the city network. Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport is approximately 25 to 30 minutes away by car.
