Perched high on a hill in the Unesco World Heritage Douro Valley, overlooking the Douro River and rolling vineyards, Six Senses perfectly blends indulgence with wellness.
As the terracotta–hued, 19th-century manor is set in Portugal’s wine region, there are naturally many wine-centric activities on offer, as well as family experiences and adventures in the great outdoors.
The multiple-award–winning hotel is as captivating as its surroundings. It has a wonderful spa, organic garden, protected 10-acre woodland, wine library and divine restaurants, including The Vale de Abraão Restaurant.
Top suite: Quinta Courtyard Suite from $1,460 per night
Grape stomping: Become a winemaker for the day and join in the age-old tradition of stomping the grapes to commence the vintage.
