Joana’s home is perfect for a beach break near a city. If that’s what you want you should stay here. The town where the house is, is quiet and peaceful. The house is so close to the sea you can hear it and the beaches are lovely (and deserted in April when we visited.) Central Porto is 40 minutes away door to door by train and if you don’t want to leave the neighbourhood there are lovely restaurants near by like Zizi on the beach. Loved our stay and would highly recommend.
