What a gorgeous place. The photos don't do it justice. There is a lovely view of the ocean from the kitchen, living room and all three bedrooms. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for a family holiday. There is a great selection of little cafes and bars along the sea front, but the apartment is set back from the road and doesn't suffer from any street noise. Our only note on noise would be that the wall shared with the next apartment is quite thin and you can hear their tv/music etc if you're sitting in the living room (although there is no issue in the bedrooms). The best surprise about this place was the drive into Porto. Porto can be easily accessed in about 10 mins via a beautiful road along the side of the river, offering spectacular views of the city and not too much traffic. You could walk it if you were feeling energetic - there is a boardwalk right around the coast, which accommodates bikes and pushchairs. All round a great experience, we would love to come back.
