Being the first guests in a new Airbnb has the potential for a wide range of experience. You never know what you’re going into & you have to just take a chance. We are so grateful we took that chance. Our stay in Porto could not have been any better. The Airbnb is located in Gaia, which is about a 20 minute walk from Porto. The two are separated by a bridge with one of the most beautiful views in the city. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Miguel and welcomed with great hospitality. He and his wife, Helena, showed us the room & gave us a tour of his property. It’s a beautiful space with a mix of nature and comfort. The airbnb is tucked away on the property which provides privacy if desired. Next to the room, there is a space perfect for a picnic or just to hang out in the grass. It’s surrounded with a mix of trees and herbs and really gives a feel of camping with comfort. The room is like a small hotel room with clean sheets, a clean bathroom & shower, mini fridge, a smart tv and air conditioning/heating. There is a hammock out front & a small table with chairs. Perfect to relax and listen the sounds of birds chirping. After we dropped our things off & we’re settled, Miguel & Helena took us on a small tour of Gaia and showed us the best way to get around, pointing to all the best spots & best views. Miguel also sent us a detailed list of his favorites spots in the city including architecture, museums, parks, cafes & restaurants. It made the trip smooth & easy. Throughout our visit, we got to talk and get to know Miguel & his family who are all very generous people. Anytime we need anything, Miguel was right there to help. In the morning, they will bring you a breakfast of fruit, bread & jam, coffee & orange juice and cake for about 7 euros. So many great things can be said about our stay but I recommend you find out for yourself. We will forever have fond memories of our stay in Porto. Also, & perhaps one of the best parts, are their dogs Mia & Vinhas. They are so sweet and we’re the cherry on top of everything. 10/10 experience :)
