Why We Love This Deal

Perched on a hilltop, this hotel's sleek silhouette stands out against the Arcadian countryside of Portugal's Douro Valley. In the year since Quinta São José do Barrilário opened, it has been turning heads. Among the proof is a coveted Michelin Key on Portugal’s inaugural list, recognizing its "spectacular location" and thoughtful design, including floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the valley.

For $899, enjoy 3 leisurely nights (or more) plus over $750 in perks—from a hands-on cooking workshop and wine tasting to a tranquil river cruise. This offer saves 40%–61% compared to regular rates.

Hint: You'll save the most on March and April stays. This is when wildflowers, and almond and cherry trees are in bloom.
