Do not purchase wines online from these people for shipment overseas. I bought 6 bottles of expensive port and only 5 arrived. When I complained they did not accept responsibility. They blamed it on the shipper who didn't return my emails or calls and did nothing about it. Quinta Da Pacheca DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. Não compre vinhos on-line dessas pessoas para remessa para o exterior. Comprei 6 garrafas de porto caro e apenas 5 chegaram. Quando reclamei, eles não aceitaram responsabilidade. Culparam o remetente que não retornou meus e-mails ou telefonemas e não fez nada a respeito. A Quinta Da Pacheca NÃO ESTÁ ATRÁS DOS SEUS PRODUTOS. No compre vinos en línea de estas personas para su envío al extranjero. Compré 6 botellas de puerto caro y solo llegaron 5. Cuando me quejé no aceptaron responsabilidad. Le echaron la culpa al remitente que no devolvió mis correos electrónicos o llamadas y no hizo nada al respecto. Quinta Da Pacheca NO SE COLOCA DETRÁS DE SUS PRODUCTOS.…
We’ve been there with friends, me and my husband arrived earlier and we saw a car crashed in a place where there was no signs, the car went down through a stair. The lady who was taking us to our room said that in a week before another car had the same accident. When our friends arrived with their car they were traped in the same web, and crashed their car too. Someone from the hotel came and said that it was the first time it happened, not knowing we saw the previous accident. Very disappointing. It’s so simple and easy to avoid such things by puting something on the way, so the drivers get warned. It just ruins the whole experience, to arrive somewhere with an accident
Great experience! We drove a rent a car from Porto through beautiful mountian roads using Google maps. Becareful with the GPS in the rentals, they are not as reliable (you can download Google maps in your phone while online then use it off line for your entire trip) The vinyard is beautiful! We rented two of the wine barrels for a girls trip. It included a high end wine tour with wine tasting and a small bottle of their famouse Port wine in the room. The barrels are bigger inside then they look, very comfortable and unique. Book reservations for dinner, you will not be disappointed. Service is exceptional! We will definitely be returning.
Unfortunately a poorly handled situation by the utterly unhelpful management team meant that our visit could not go ahead as planned. We were booked to attend a friend’s wedding on the premises back in July and had a wine barrel room booked for 3 nights, we thought it could double as a romantic break for the two of us as well. Sadly a couple of days before we were due to arrive we had experienced a death in the family which resulted in us no longer having childcare for our 1 year old daughter. Originally it was just going to be the two of us attending and a family member was organised to babysit our daughter in our absence. When this occurred we decided the only way we could go was to take our daughter with us. A slight change, but not impossible as we have travelled with her before. I called the airline and sorted her flight, then called the hotel to check whether they would be able to supply a travel cot for her or if we should bring our own. I was surprised to be told by a woman there that we could not bring our daughter as there was no room for a travel cot in our apparently too small wine barrel room and that as the hotel was fully booked for the wedding there was no alternative, and that we could not bring her. I explained the situation and asked whether we could switch rooms with someone else, as the wine barrels are meant to be a premium I asked whether another guest could be upgraded perhaps, and we could take their more basic, but by the sounds of it larger room,and was told that this was something we would need to do ourselves by contacting other guests. As we didn’t really know anyone else attending the wedding this wasn’t possible. After much back and forth we had to make the difficult decision for one of us to stay behind with our daughter, so my husband attended on his own. We lost out on our cancelled flights and having paid a premium for this room to then only have one person attend was a real shame. I would have expected more help from such an establishment for what I think is a pretty straightforward request. What would have happened if we had arrived with our daughter? Not a great experience. …
Wow! What a lovely quaint romantic place to stay. This Quinta (winery and farm) was absolutely wonderful. It all begins as you look down the treelined lane and it feels like you are entering a tranquil world. The whole estate is quaint and stunning. Lots of attention to detail. The room was beautiful. Gorgeous views with large windows that open. We made a reservation at the restaurant and had a delicious 5 star meal. Worth every penny. I'd recommend a tour of the winery. We purchased some wine and had it shipped home. A great memento of our trip. Also took a tour on the Duoro River in a small boat. Really a nice way to see the vineyards along the banks.
