Six Senses Douro Valley
Douro Valley, Portugal
About the hotel
"Set high on a hill in a 19th-century manor house, the Six Senses Douro Valley boasts pretty guestrooms, traditional Portuguese cuisine and wine tastings held in the hotel library."
Six Senses Douro Valley sits serenely within this magic. The superbly renovated 19th-century manor house is set high on a hill overlooking the vine-covered rolling hills and the river below. Manhattan-based Clodagh Design was in charge of the redesign of the property and ensured a beautiful and warm environment using local products. Those include traditional blue and white azulejo ceramic tiles, granite floors, cork ceilings and gold leaf on the walls. Modern artwork adds a contemporary look.
There are 60 guest bedrooms including nine suites and seven villas, some with private pools and gardens, which, along with floor-to-ceiling windows, offer sweeping vistas. An in-room... Show more

Those include traditional blue and white azulejo ceramic tiles, granite floors, cork ceilings and gold leaf on the walls. Modern artwork adds a contemporary look.
There are 60 guest bedrooms including nine suites and seven villas, some with private pools and gardens, which, along with floor-to-ceiling windows, offer sweeping vistas. An in-room smartphone operates just about everything, including room service orders. Suites include bathtubs with views of the Douro, while rooms have showers.
If you’re not a fan, you’ll rejoice that not everything is all about port wine here. Prolific produce from the organic garden is used in just about everything, including the delicious Gardener’s Choice signature cocktails. Have one, and then sit down for dinner at The Vale d’Abraão Dining Room, the hotel’s main restaurant, which specialises in traditional Portuguese dishes. Or dine at the Chef’s table for a meal you’ll remember for a long time to come. The wine list features the best of the Douro, and staff are very happy, indeed, to share their wealth of knowledge on the topic.
Of course, as a Six Senses property, well-being is a big focus, so there’s often visiting practitioners whose aim it is to help you live life to the fullest, as well as a spa with just about everything you could wish for. Including ten treatment rooms where signature treatments include hot stone and almond oil massages, guests can enjoy orange and lemon wraps with fruit from the gardens.
There’s also a gym, a nail bar and a pavilion for yoga and pilates, or you could always use the woods (instructed) as a venue for some aerial yoga. There is a heated indoor pool with water jets, an outdoor pool and refreshment bar plus a gym with the latest exercise equipment and professional guidance. Finally, don’t miss spending time in the hotel’s library where wine tastings and a few stories of the region are shared every evening.
