Photos and Description of the Porto area vacation apartment rental 15kms of Blue Flag beaches only 10 minutes away.

An apartment with 2 double rooms, living room, bath with shower, kitchen and a terrace turned East.. The landscape from the terrace, surprises us with the views of the river Douro and the elements classified by UNESCO as World Heritage , Church and Serra do Pilar, D. Luis bridge and Porto Cathedral. From the terrace can also be seen on the left river bank, the historic area of Vila Nova de Gaia and the Port Wine cellars that are spread over the slope. The first cellar is 100 metres from the apartment. The view over the right river bank allow the observation one of the most interesting Portuguese landscapes, the Historic centre of the city of Porto, only at 30 minutes walking distance or 5 minutes by bus. It will take less than 10 minutes to walk down the hill until you get to the river bank. Why not a Douro River cruise? In the back of the building there is a large area with trees and a very small construction density. In a very quiet area, with bus stop just 100 metres

Porto, the country´s second largest city, is in itself full of interest, but the surrounding cities offers the visitor plenty to see. Along the coast, down to the cosmopolitan beach of Espinho (with a casino) you will find 15 kms of white sand beaches classified with Blue Flag. Splendid seafood can be found almost everywhere. On the left side of Douro you can visit, in Vila Nova de Gaia, the lodges where Port wine is blended and aged and where you can taste the different varieties, or you may choose to take a river cruise along the Douro. Traditional cities like Vila do Conde, Braga, Ponte de Lima or Guimarães are within 50 kms range and worth a visit.

convenient and comfortable

kt douro Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
The apartment was spotless, well-equipped (even a washing machine!), with a tremendous view. I would definitely stay here again. I didn't mind at all that it was in Gaia, rather than Porto, because it was not a long walk over the bridge. The only shortcoming for me was that the apartment is accessed through a narrow, winding road up hill... made walking a bit challenging but we got used to it.

A real gem of an appartment!

Hawk1976 Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Review Submitted: April 1, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
This was a real gem of an appartment! The location was amazing and very convinient for taking the bus to get to the center of Porto (within 20 minutes) or in the Port Wine district (5 Minutes). The view was exactly like in the picture, the apartment was very clean and well maintained. Graham's Port within stumbling distance!

a perfect place to stay in Porto

vagabunda Augsburg, Germany
Review Submitted: October 4, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
This flat was a very nice, clean, quiet and friendly place to stay. It is a big flat with terrace and a marvellous view to Porto and the bridge. You can walk to Porto or take the bus which is leaving right in front of the house. Down the hill are the portwine cellars, so you don´t have to take a taxi home after a degustation. Just take the bus for 3 stops and you are at home.
It is a little bit hard to find, so perhaps it is good to have a map of Vila Nova da Gaia.
I would always again rent this flat. Great, great, great.
