Maia dos Reis Hotel Rural is a recent tourist development located in northern Portugal, in the parish of Folgosa da Maia, Porto. It is the result of the renovation of an old farmhouse dating from 1719, classified as a heritage site of municipal interest. The restoration project, designed by architect Joaquim Massena, respected the original layout of the building, preserving its historical and architectural value.

The hotel's name is a tribute to Rosa Maia dos Reis, grandmother of the founder António Manuel Deveza Marques Reis, and to the family's legacy, whose history merges with the hotel's identity.

This emblematic space stands out not only for its architectural grandeur, but also for its carefully selected period furniture, with pieces in rosewood, pau-rosa, and Brazilian cedar, which create an atmosphere that is simultaneously elegant, welcoming, and authentic.

The complex is built around the quinteiro, a central horseshoe-shaped courtyard that once served as the epicenter of the property's agricultural activities. Today, this space serves as a meeting and contemplation point, keeping the memory of rural life alive.

Maia dos Reis Rural Hotel is the ideal place for a peaceful stay in an exquisite setting, whether for leisure, business, or as a stop on the Caminho de Santiago, whether on foot, by bicycle, or on horseback.

Its location is strategic, combining the charm of the countryside with proximity to major urban centers and access routes. It is located:

• 15 minutes from Francisco Sá Carneiro International Airport;
• 25 minutes from Porto's historic center and the Douro riverside area;
• A few minutes from S. Frutuoso railway station, with direct Porto–Valença connection;
• Close to the A3, A4, A28, A29, and A41 motorways.

In the vicinity, visitors will also find golf courses, a racetrack, an airfield, Atlantic Ocean beaches, and, about 70 km away, the snowy mountain landscapes and the Douro Wine Region, providing a diversity of experiences at any time of year.

Maia dos Reis Hotel Rural is, therefore, more than accommodation — it is a refuge of authenticity, history, and comfort, where every detail reflects a deep respect for heritage and territory.
