Cozy and elegant, this Gaia apartment is the perfect retreat. Though compact, it is bright and excellently equipped with a premium kitchen and washing machine. The highlight is the fantastic private patio with a BBQ, a true oasis to relax. In a typical and quiet area, it's 5 mins from the metro and a short walk (15 mins) to Jardim do Morro, the Luis I Bridge, and downtown Porto. Enjoy comfort and an excellent location!

The space

Compact and bright, the space was thoughtfully designed to ensure your convenience. It features a kitchen with premium equipment and a practical smart washing machine. The great highlight is the sunny patio with a BBQ — a private and safe outdoor space, perfect for enjoying meals outdoors, relaxing with a glass of wine, or letting the kids play freely after a day of exploring the city.

The neighbourhood

Located in a quiet, safe, and authentic neighborhood in Gaia, you will live like a true local. Just a few steps away, you will find traditional bakeries, cafes, and local eateries. You will be away from the tourist crowds, yet incredibly close to everything: 5 minutes from the metro station and a 15-minute walk to downtown Porto. Iconic attractions like Jardim do Morro, Serra do Pilar Monastery, and the Luis I Bridge are just a short, pleasant walk away.

Interaction with guests

Communication is fast, easy, and always focused on your well-being. I am always available (via message or phone) to share local tips, recommend restaurants, or help organize extras like a crib or transfers. For guests who prefer to discover the city at their own pace, I have left a comprehensive folder in the apartment with tourist recommendations and several books.

- There is a Nespresso coffee machine in the apartment (capsules not included).
- A city tax is applied to all guests staying in properties located in Vila Nova de Gaia.
- The climate in Portugal can be hot and humid at certain times of the year, which may favor the appearance of mosquitoes, ants, or other small insects. Although we use regular pest control services, we cannot guarantee that an occasional insect will not enter our home, nor can we offer refunds if this happens. We do everything in our power to prevent this situation and ask our guests to cooperate by keeping doors closed, disposing of trash properly, and storing food responsibly.
