The Neighborhood:
This villa is located in a tranquil residencial area of Foz Velha and it's an ideal retreat. This charming location invites for leisure strolls along the River Douro all the way to Foz. In front of the house there's the Jardim do Passeio Alegre which is a public garden with lush greenery and a mini-golf course for family fun.
A few steps away to the right, there's a local grocery with fresh fruits and vegetables. In this area there's many high end restaurants as well as the river front ones that are relaxed, casual and still offering a great selection (we reccommend the casa de Pasto da Palmeira around the corner mwith a food sharing concept and delicious wine).
For convenient access to Porto's vibrant downtown, the iconic tram (Elétrico 1) stops next to the villa and provides a picturesque journey along the riverside.
This quiet, charming area truly offers the best of both worlds: peaceful living with urban amenities just a short ride away.

We had the most wonderful time staying in this beautiful home. Ines was the most gracious hostess and showed us where everything is and welcomed us to the property. The home is even more beautiful in person than in the pictures and it was a great location with lots of great eating spots close by and easy to walk to. We hope to come back again soon. We will definitely stay here again. It was just lovely.!!
