Maria is a fabulous host! The pictures are exactly what it is. The view from the balcony is fantastic. There are quite a few great places to eat in the area. Supermarket 10 minutes or less by foot. The beach is absolutely gorgeous but understand this is more like a Northern California beach with the rocks. It's not a Florida beach. If I go back to Porto, I will stay here again and I will stay away from the famous Porto Sandwich called a Francesinha. It makes a McDonald's Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese look like health food! I miss Porto already!
