We stayed at Quinta de Silvalde as a couple for six nights and absolutely loved it. The place is just beautiful! The architecture really stands out, it’s modern but still super cosy thanks to the light colors and the use of wood. The mix of modern and traditional touches, like the visible granite walls, makes it feel really special. You can tell that every little detail was carefully thought out. We stayed in one of the suites and it was amazing, loads of space, beautiful natural light, and an incredible view. It’s the kind of room you can happily enjoy even on a rainy day. The food was a real highlight, every meal felt like fine dining, with a new menu every day. We also loved the indoor pool and spa, perfect for relaxing after exploring. A big thank you to the lovely staff for being so friendly and welcoming, especially Ana and Miguel, they really made our stay extra special. The location is great too, only about 30 minutes from Porto by car. The nearby town isn’t great for walking (no sidewalks), so a car is handy, but Bolt and Uber are cheap and easy if you don’t want to drive. Everything was spotless, from the rooms to the rest of the hotel. We honestly had the best time and would 100% come back!
