Perched atop a gentle hill in the UNESCO‑listed Douro Valley, Casa da Raposeira is a quietly magnificent retreat where space, light, and the region’s timeless beauty converge. Enveloped by mature gardens, orchards and sweeping views over vineyards and olive groves, this expansive estate offers a refined sanctuary for families and friends to unwind, celebrate and reconnect

From the moment you arrive, Casa da Raposeira invites an unhurried rhythm of life. Sunlit indoor spaces lead naturally to shaded terraces and open gardens, where the scent of olive and pine trees mingles with panoramic views of rolling hills and vines that ripple toward the horizon.

Reviews
We had a wonderful time at Casa da Raposeira! Perfect property for our family reunion.
House is large and comfortable, beautifully decorated, impeccably clean and very well equipped for entertaining large groups. It is atop of a hill with stunning and unobstructed views of all the surrounding vineyards. Mariana and Rita were incredible hosts responding promptly to any questions and helping us arrange activities and chef services. I would highly recommend this amazing property to anyone.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful home, which was perfect for our large group
The house is set in a stunning location, with peaceful surroundings and plenty of privacy. The layout of the home is spacious, thoughtfully designed, and ideal for groups, offering a bunch of great shared spaces. The house is bright, modern, and clean. The kitchen was great—large and extremely well stocked. One of the highlights was that each bedroom had its own en-suite bathroom! We loved gathering on the terrace every morning for our coffee overlooking the view. The pool was perfect for both lounging and swimming, and the sauna was a special treat we enjoyed. We had quite a few questions before and during our stay, and the host was always friendly, quick to respond, and incredibly helpful. They also provided some welcome treats that we loved, including the olive oil and apple cookies. We would absolutely recommend this home!

We had an amazing time in this beautiful house.
We had an amazing time in this beautiful house. The house is very spacious and very nicely decorated. Everything feels like new and exactly like the pictures. We were a large group of friends and we all had very comfortable rooms, several spaces to eat and relax as well as privacy when needed. The sauna and swimming pool are great, which we enjoyed greatly.While we had no problems at all, Carolina was very responsive and friendly to answer our questions.I highly recommend this house for a large group (family or friends). We will definitely stay again in this house if we go back to the region, and this house alone is worth the trip!

We spent a few days incredible with friends
We spent a few days incredible with friends at Raposeira's house. Everything was impeccable, the house is a dream, with a lot of history and remodeled with incredible good taste. Everything works perfect, it is very well equipped and is super comfortable. Ideal for sharing with friends! The location seemed perfect to me. The care, the attention, the details, the service… 10 points! I will not forget the talks with friends in the sauna, the baths in the pool, the pool nights. I hope to be able to repeat this experience again! Highly recommended!!
