We had a great stay in Vila Nova de Gaia.
The apartment is situated pretty close to the central river path of the city and not far away from the Metro and the Luis I. Bridge.
There are many opportunities to go out and to enjoy the region. Luis was really helpful also before our arrival. During our stay he was always available and he even organized a taxi the day we left the city.
Inside the apartment there are many lovely details such as an LP player, many helpful kitchen aids (e.g. a blender, coffee machine, a toaster etc.). Unfortunately there was no oven, but a microwave.
The view from the balcony was really amazing.
Unfortunately Luis came 45 minutes too late the day we arrived. Thus we had to wait a long time in the rain which was sort of uncomfortable.
All in all we had a wonderful time and we are sure to come back sometime to this unique place.
