Isabel and her husband were lovely and so helpful with advice for the Camino route (and very close by to resume the Camino the next day). She served a delicious meal and breakfast and I had a very comfortable night in their beautiful home.

It was the perfect place to just sit and relax after a long walk. They had 2 sheep and a bunny, which added to the charm. I also liked the owners Isabelle and her husband. They were extremely friendly and hospitable.

This was one of the best places we have stayed in Europe. The sunset was amazing as well as the breakfast. The conversations with the hosts were very informative as well as the directions through the bird preserve to get onto the Camino walk.

Moimenta Guest House is a single-story villa offering three bedrooms designed for a high-quality holiday experience. The rooms are comfortable, intimate, and equipped with all the amenities needed to make you feel right at home. Each room features a private bathroom and a terrace with stunning ocean views. Guests are also welcome to enjoy other areas of the house, including a cozy sitting room and various outdoor spaces.
I love seeking out new experiences and a different daily routine, but I equally cherish calm and relaxing moments. I have a deep love for nature, animals, and the small things in life. I enjoy a good conversation, music, and sports. I’m an easy-going person with a positive attitude toward challenges. I love learning and building meaningful relationships. Being communicative and idealistic, I dream of a better and happier world
Located in the stunning Vila do Conde Coastal Protected Landscape and just 200 meters from the Mindelo Ornithological Reserve, our guesthouse is the ideal retreat for those seeking tranquility and a connection to rural nature. Set along the Caminho de Santiago route, between lush greenery and the deep blue sea, every day here begins with the sound of the waves and the scent of the ocean breeze. Our cozy and comfortable rooms offer privacy and serenity, while the beach, just steps away, invites you for a swim, a walk, or a quiet moment of contemplation. For the more adventurous, there are cycling trails, surf/paddle/bodyboard lessons, fitness/yoga sessions, and massages, as well as walks along the ornithological reserve boardwalks—a true paradise for birdwatchers. Despite the natural surroundings, we are close to the Vila do Conde Fashion Outlet and a short drive from Porto, Guimarães, and Braga. More than just a place to stay, it’s a destination where time slows down and life is lived with more mindfulness
