Great location, great flat

Sussie and Torsten Aarhus, Denmark
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent 3 days at Joana's flat and enjoyed it very much because of Joana and Filipe's welcoming and trusting attitude, and the flat itself and the location. Rental flats are often complete barren and boring; this is not the case here: the tasteful oriental touches combined with a light IKEA style creates a personal atmosphere much liked by both adults and our 2 children. The local Matosinhos area is interesting, not least when it comes to restaurants - the vegetarian one in Joana's information pack is very good. We also recommend walking or running along the spectacular beachfront which has a sort of Californial laid-back feel to it. I ran to the mouth of the Douro, some 5 km to the south (the end of the pier there is quite an experience) , and most of the time we opted to travel by bus # 500 (stops across the street) along that route into the Ribeira of Porto. Got to be one of the world's prettiest urban bus rides! We strongly recommend this place.
Torsten, Sussie, Frida and Maja (Denmark)
Owner's Response: Thank you for staying with us. We are very happy that you had a nice time here!
Hope that you came again to Porto and that we have time to spend with you. We are really thankful about your review!
Love Joana & Filipe

Nice little apartment

kirstenkirsten Amsterdam
Review Submitted: September 4, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Really neat apartment, clean and near by beach and stores. The apartment has everything you need, 1 bedroom and eventually 1 extra bed in the living room if necessary.

Owners are very nice people, hospitable and very friendly.

Lots to do in Oporto and Matosinhos is nice, full with restaurants where you can eat grilled fish and other nice Portuguese dishes. On sundays always free concerts in the "Casa da Musica", sometimes musicconcerts at the beach, the old city, portcellars, and much more.

There was nothing we didn't like! Worth coming back.
Owner's Response: Dear Kirsten and family thank so much for comming to my apartment and thank you for your big simpathy. We are glad to have people like you in our home!
hope that you come back soon

love,
Joana and Filipe

something for everyone

Duco Sheffield, England
Review Submitted: September 4, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Absolutely lovely time in Joanna's apartment. It was perfect in Porto, from where we could drive to watch our son play basketball at the Euros (about 35min south from Porto) and our older son and friend found plenty of enterntainment on the beach and made friends very quickly. It's also a perfect place for a long weekend, with a tram stop nearby, and there also being one at the airport. We visited Porto and many places. Temperature perfect and nice waves on the beach. Joanna was very helpful. I've recommended the apartment already to colleagues. It was a very nice family holiday and much preferred to a hotel. There were supermarkets nearby and people there were also helpful. Definitely a find, and thanks Joanna.
Owner's Response: Dear Ducco and big lovely family!!!!!
it was a pleasure to meet you and you big boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.... thank you for everything (love the key holder!!!!!!) and for this review.
hope that you come back soon,
love *

comfortable apartment

English phil Bristol. UK
Review Submitted: September 4, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We had a great time at the apartment which was very clean, welcoming and well equipped. Jo and Filipe were excellent hosts and we very much enjoyed their company, they took us to a fabulous party with their friends on the night of St Johns festival which is an unforgettable massive street party. A good base to travel into Porto town, although the metro is close by we found it easier and not much more expensive to use a taxi.Good shops nearby and a we found a good drinking and smoking bar called The Wine Bar just up the road - great staff, beer, live music and owner Rui. We found everybody very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended
Owner's Response: Lovely couple, nice company and great time with you in Oporto, Matosinhos and in the bar... we have already bought sardines for next S João with you two!!!!!!!!
... thank you so much, hope to see you soon ( maybe next year you will stay longer to see the car racing!!!)

love,
Joana and Filipe
