Booked randomly because our flights home got cancelled and we needed another place to stay at short notice, we were immediately impressed the second we walked in. The host was lovely, very smiley and friendly, and we got a good introduction to the house. Each bedroom has its own lovely en suite, and the rooms are big. Two have big balconies with something of a river view.
The house smelled really fresh and nice, and the outside space is much bigger than the pictures suggest. There are a couple of trees with loungers underneath and grassy space, plus a big courtyard out the back with grilling space.
Downstairs is pretty open plan with plenty of space to eat and relax. You could easily have a big group without it feeling cramped.
It’s extremely well located; you can get food delivered by Uber, Bolt etc., there’s a supermarket and restaurant a minute’s walk away, the river is easy walking distance (with plenty of bars and restaurants, a little beach space, palm trees, and two lighthouses). An Uber anywhere in the city from here is under 10 Euros, often less, and the airport is just a 15 min drive.
We took a boat tour and they pointed out this area to us as the most expensive houses in Porto, where many of the footballers live, so we chose well!
