Portugal’s Wine Country
Beautifully nestled into the dreamy, vine-covered hills of Portugal’s’ Douro Valley, Six Senses’ converted 19th-century manor house is an idyllic country retreat.
Looking out over the steeply terraced vineyards towards the meandering Douro River below, Six Sixes Douro Valley finds itself in the midst of a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Here in the world’s oldest wine-producing region, which has produced quality port for the last two thousand years, Six Senses’ dedicated Wine Team are on hand to ensure an immersive experience in the world of Douro wines. Think daily wine tastings, visits to boutique, family-run wine estates and stomping on grapes (an experience only available during harvest time). This is in addition to excursions to prehistoric rock art sites, river cruises, mountain biking and much, much more.
Lovingly renovated and brought up to the highest of luxury standards, the property comprises 60 elegantly-designed rooms and suites, an expansive spa, organic gardens and nature trails. Its restaurants, meanwhile, celebrate the bounty of the valley through fine, regional cuisine.
