Highlights

With its own forest trails, an organic garden of vegetables for guests to wander and enjoy and pathways through the vineyards, the estate’s grounds are arguably what makes the hotel truly unique
The daily activity schedule is extensive and naturally includes wine tasting. There are also cooking classes, paddle boarding, kayaking, and even tree climbing (when did you last climb a tree?). Get involved or simply lounge by the pool and order another cocktail
This being a Six Senses, the spa is standout and includes yogic detox and sleep programmes
Michelin starred chef Rui Paula has a restaurant, DOC, a short drive away which sits right on the river

Six Senses Douro Valley has 60 contemporary rooms and suites, decorated in soothing tones and with luxurious amenities, many offering panoramic views of the surrounding vineyards, the river and 8 hectares of lush green gardens.

From the hotel you can explore this fascinating local area with its vineyards and villages - some of which are home to monasteries from the 12th century - take a boat trip on the Douro, fly by helicopter over the landscape, try local Portuguese cuisine (including incredible vegetarian options) and taste the fantastic regional wines. Whilst at Six Senses Douro Valley, guests can relax by the outdoor pool, walk in the lush green gardens or be pampered in the beautifully designed spa with natural, organic products. Everything about the hotel and the setting nourishes body and soul.
