This is an outstanding location for a stay in Porto
Our host, Maria, has thought of absolutely everything to ensure that her guests have an enjoyable stay in Porto. Her communication with clients is first class and every piece of information we needed to get the maximum benefit from our Porto visit was made available by Maria. The apartment is perfectly placed, just above the hub-bub of the city but really just a couple of minutes walk to all the best places. We parked our car right out the front for the duration of our stay which was very convenient. The fittings and quality of every item in the apartment is excellent. We will most definitely stay here again when we next return to Porto. Thankyou Maria !!

Beautiful!
We had two nights in Porto and the apartment was lovely. Up a very big hill but that was a good challenge. Position was fantastic-so central but very quiet. Maria was a fantastic host.

The Best Place to Stay in Porto!
This is a great apartment, with amazing views of the city, and walking distance to everything you could want to see and do in Porto. It is immaculately clean, well stocked, and Maria is simply the best Vrbo host we have ever had! She literally thinks of everything! We were there two hours and my wife and I were already planning our next visit.

Loved the view and small details
My husband and I stayed 4 nights in this lovely apartment. The pictures don't do it justice. The view is spectacular, and location can't be beat. Walking distance to all of the old town attractions. Maria was an amazing host - she was so responsive to every question, and when our flights were delayed/rerouted, she gave us invaluable help changing our airport pickup and check in. Lastly, there are so many thoughtful little details in the apartment, from umbrellas for guest use, tourist info, extra towels, and cozy blankets. We'd happily go back. Note, for folks who haven't been to Porto, it is very hilly. Bring comfortable shoes!
