Staying at Quinta da Gricha was a great experience. The property is beautiful, nestled on hills with beautiful vineyards. The staff are remarkably helpful and wonderful to work with. We enjoyed having dinner on the property rather than traveling to outside restaurants, and we also took advantage of the wine tasting and tour.

Our stay at Gricha was the highlight of our trip to Portugal. The Quinta was beautiful. We loved walking through the vineyards with the dogs. After venturing out in Douro for the day it was nice to have dinner available and enjoyed the wines suggested. Stay here!

The location was gorgeous with spectacular views, a welcoming fire in the fireplace, friendly helpful staff, and great breakfast spread. There were informative books in the living room that inspired us to add sights to our visit. It was a relaxing, restoring visit after lots of driving.

A port paradise
We had an incredible few days staying at Quinta da Gricha. The Quinta was exceptionally clean and well designed and the view was spectacular. The staff were very knowledgeable of the property, it's history and of course the port and wine making activities on the estate and provided very relaxed but informative tours and tastings. With the Quinta having only a few rooms, you are able to enjoy a very chilled and intimate experience in the Douro Valley. The staff are incredibly accommodating and provided a high level of service, even bringing us port cocktails to the pool without needing to ask for anything. The food (and of course wine/port offering) was local and excellent and whilst there isn't a huge array of options for dinner, for a 2 night stay this was not an issue. If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing place to fully experience the Douro Valley, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Quinta da Gricha.

The best view
In the hills overlooking the Douro River valley this place is stunning. The view from the dining room (great food), porch, our room and the infinity pool are awe inspiring. We walked the vineyard with the friendly dogs and watched the workers stomp grapes.

Getting here is half the fun and exhilarating! The reward is a peaceful, beautiful retreat with the most attentive staff. The room is large and beautifully simple (a good thing) with the world's most magnificent view of hills of vineyards and the Douro River. It'a very quiet retreat. No TV but plenty of books and table games. We got pretty good at pick up sticks! The meals were home cooked and delicious. This is a place that would be hard to find anywhere else

My husband and I had such a wonderful stay at this property. The area is so picturesque and the check in hosts were so lovely and kind. The property is so beautiful, away from the touristy vineyards and a nice escape if you prefer somewhere more secluded and quiet. The Quinta had multiple common spaces inside and outside and it was lovely to watch the sunset and drink a glass of wine outside in their garden. A bonus are the dogs, miru and kika who love all the pets. Highly recommend this place.

This was simply a wonderful experience. It began with Luis and staff’s excellent customer service. They made sure you were taken care of and made to feel at home. The winery perched on the side of a mountain overlooking the Duoro River and surrounded by the vineyard is breathtaking and memorable. The facilities are modern, the rooms large and comfortable, and the breakfast very good. The wine tasting experience was fun and informative. We didn’t swim in the pool but it looked beautiful and inviting. We enjoyed our walk among the vines with the house dogs as our companions. Highly recommend.
