Great host and great location

Clean and comfortable. In a great location. Enjoyed hearing the waves of the ocean, walking on the beach and eating at the cafes along the promenade. Very close to the Douro river where the port houses are and boat trips.

Canidelo treat

From the check-in to check-out, our host made everything go smoothly.. The apartment was clean, nicely furnished, well-situated in front of the ocean, and had everything we needed for a month’s stay. We appreciated having the boardwalk and walking path along the ocean practically out the door. Cafes were nicely spaced along the path and we enjoyed our daily coffees there. This place takes some time to get into Porto during peak hours and needs GPS to negotiate the roundabouts and twists and turns down to the apartment from the main road. Other than that, it was a total delight.

Traumhafte Sonnenuntergänge am Atlantik

Schönes geräumiges Apartment direkt am Meer mit großer Terrasse. Das Apartment ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet, die Küche u.a. Mit Spülmaschine und Waschmaschine gut ausgestattet. Besonders gefallen hat uns die Hängematte auf der großzügigen Terrasse. Bei Sonnenuntergang das Essen draußen zu genießen war ein Highlight für uns. Der einzigste Kritikpunkt waren die für uns zu harten Matratzen.
