Joaquim, Eduarda & Patricia were the kindest hosts we could have ever hoped to meet and we loved staying in their apartment. It has been the best AirBnB hosting we have experienced. The flat is perfect, homely and rustic, full of character, where everything fits in, with indoor and outdoor space, and easy routes to the city.
They included us in family meals, brought us fruit, eggs and vegetables from their allotment. Our dogs loved the stay and enjoyed the outside and nearby parks. When we arrived we were welcomed with pastries, food, wine and any other beverages and not to mention so many cleaning provisions, toiletries and a starter kit of things.
We were moved to this wonderful place due to a bad experience with another host, and immediately we felt relaxed, comfortable, and de-stressed. We stayed for six weeks and wished we didn’t have to leave. The apartment is clean, homely and comfortable for two.
Joaquim went out of his way to show us different areas outside of Porto we would have never experienced. He is a wonderful person and beyond gracious. Our Saturday lunches were amazing and enjoyed meeting their extended family. Everyone was so lovely. Joaquim is always available if needed and always responded immediately. Hopefully, we will know Portuguese a little more next time, but we got by using google translate - somewhat! Patricia always helped us if we had questions, even though she is working hard in Ireland.
We will definitely stay with our friendly hosts if we return to Porto and highly recommend them for welcoming us like friends and family. Muito Obrigada!!
Thanks so much, our generous and kind hosts and we wish you the best of luck in the future.
