We enjoyed our stay. Pros - really nice apartment - spacious, kitchen nice, lovely floors, lots of bathrooms, lots of lovely towels, and clean. Good fish restaurants locally and in Porto. Good bus service to Porto - also taxi v cheap. Jose Paulo very easy to deal with and provides quick attention. Cons- Balcony fits 3 chairs only and seating area in living room would not fit more than 5. The apartment is situated across the road from the large beach in a residential area close to the working port. Interesting to sit and look at but would be disappointed if we came for a purely beach holiday- not the fault of the apartment but saying this as information for others. Overall good spot close to Porto centre - good for families as plenty if space and nice walking space around locally, prom v nice. Sea world and surf schools also located close by. Lifeguard at beach across the road and nicer smaller beach areas a short walk away.
