This is an excellent apartment to visit Porto and the beaches of Vila Nova de Gaia. Very clean, quiet and well equipped kitchen and utilities, TV and WiFi. We are a family of four and found the space perfect - not too big or small. Very close to the beach and beach restaurants. We did not take public transport as we found taxis almost as economical for the 4 of us. Approximately 15 mins drive to Porto city centre or a nice walk along the coast - approx 60 - 90 mins. A very good spot for a family visit to Porto, Joaquim met us at apartment, late due to flight delays, and gave us great tips on local restaurants and things to see and do. There was a welcome pack of milk, bread coffee and wine etc which was very nice. There was also a v good tourist pack with great background on things to see and do in the area. If thinking of visiting the area would strongly recommend the apartment and the hosts
