This apartment has spectacular views & a perfect location! Only 2-3 minutes walk from the Ponte Luís I bridge, stairs & funicular to the upper part of town & to Ribeira!
As it is in a very old building, there is no lift & it’s on the 5th floor. But the breathtaking views & outdoor terraces (3) make it worth it!!
1.5 bathrooms are a plus with a larger group.
There a few stray cats around, but they stayed away & did not bother us.
It was very hot 30+ degrees Celsius when we were there...there is no air conditioning & the fans were broken. We just closed the shutters during the day while we were out & came home to a cooler apartment at night!
We would definitely recommend staying @ Miguel’s apartment! Very walkable to all the must see attractions; including Villa Nova de Gaia (just over the bridge) for the all the Port wineries & Jardim do Morro for sunset watching!
Miguel took extra time & care to show us on the map all the places he enjoys to eat traditional Portuguese food, his favorite Port wineries & local bars!
Cheers Miguel! We can’t wait to return one day!!!
