We were extremely impressed with this VRBO! It offered everything we needed for a comfortable stay in Porto. We loved the decorating, art and location! We will recommend this unit to anyone we know that is going to Porto. Thank you.
We stayed here with two other couples. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. Very upscale accommodations. There are two lovely patios, one off the dining room and one overlooking the river. There are some steps to navigate as the main living area is on the second story and the bedrooms on the third. Is a couple of miles from the old town, so we just Ubered.

Porto Perfection
My husband and I have stayed at many VRBO homes with our family. But I would have to say that this home and staff ESPECIALLY MAFALDA!)are beyond compare. Mafalda the property manager greeted us on arrival and was so thorough with her introduction to the house we felt at ease and at home immediately. Mafalda handled all our affairs with ease and such graciousness. There were welcoming touches throughout the house. It was so comfortable, beautifully decorated and in such a great location. The tram runs just outside so getting into downtown Porto was no issue. I highly recommend this home to a group. We had 3 couples but it could accommodate children as well. We look forward to our return in the future to this home!

Beautiful property and Fabulous views!
A well appointed elegant house in a good location. Several walkable good restaurants in both directions. The beds were comfortable with nice linens. The only draw back is four flights of bare wood stairs with no banisters.
