"Housed in a 19th-century manor amid rolling vines above the Douro River, this wine-country Six Senses pairs contemporary minimalist design with vineyard-facing rooms (some with private hot tubs), a strong emphasis on local wines via a wine library and enomatic tasting system, gardens that supply fruit for spa scrubs made at the Alchemy Bar, and serious spa programs focused on sleep improvement and holistic aging." - CNT Editors
"Sitting above the river amid vineyards, this Two MICHELIN Key, 19th-century manor turned spa resort focuses on wellness and local connection, with a more than 2,000-square-meter spa offering grape-based treatments and cuisine that leans farm-to-table, much of it sourced from the hotel’s own gardens." - The MICHELIN Guide
