10/10 – Uitzonderlijk

Luxury and Personal attention - and great port!
Quinta do Pego has been recently refurbished (rebuild?) by a Danish company and offers a fantastic experience in the Douro Valley. The Quinta is small (only 10 rooms) and excels in personal attention: no matter where you are in the hotel and at what time, you will be able to order a drink or a bite. And when you enter your room for the first time, a great port surprise awaits you! The infinity pool is a great place to relax, but there are also walks through the grape ranks which you undertake at your leisure. At the ground floor there is a port bar where tastings take place. The sommelier is very knowledgable and available for all your questions; if you opt for dinner (great value for money), he will also be the one presenting and explaining the various wines and ports to you. The view from the restaurant and the rooms (at least the ones we stayed in) was impressive, especially at sunset.
All in all a great place to relax and enjoy the good (port) life. Highly recommended.
