Your safe destination is now even safer
CEO Statement
“Exclusiveness has always been a priority for our customers, and now they’re also concerned about safety. That’s why since the start of the pandemic, we have continuously strived to establish procedures that provide the greatest guarantee of safety to our guests and employees. Our environment helps a lot: It’s a privilege to have a 12th century abbey with just 30 rooms spread across 8,000 m2, surrounded by 700 hectares of vineyards along the Douro River, and enjoying several outdoor restaurants options. And this is all less than two hours away from Madrid”
