The Six Senses is brand is well-regarded for its focus on enrichment and wellness in coveted destinations around the world.  With their thoughtful hospitality combined with Douro Valley's already spectacular natural beauty (it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for good reason), one can only imagine how many ways this luxurious hillside retreat feeds the soul — but I'll offer a small glimpse: reconnect with nature with a gourmet picnic in a 100-year old forest garden, explore hidden trails to find boutique wineries or Quintas (wine estates) and taste small production wines, gently drift on the Douro River by paddleboard, gather souvenirs in the form of recipes during a Portuguese cooking class, or enjoy a dip in the spa's heavenly indoor pool after what is likely to be your most memorable spa experience to date.
