Guest Access: Guests have access to the entire apartment.
The Neighborhood: Located next to Jardim do Morro, where you can enjoy the best sunset, you will be in Vila Nova de Gaia, famous for its Port Wine Cellars. You will have stunning views of the D. Luís I Bridge, the beautiful Ribeira district, and the main tourist attractions of Porto. The riverside boardwalk just below is the perfect path for a scenic walk to the beaches.
For wine enthusiasts, some cellars to consider visiting are Casa Ferreirinha, Sandeman, Cálem, Graham's, and Quinta do Noval, where you can taste different varieties and learn about their unique characteristics. We also recommend visiting the WOW Multi-Experience Center.
To reach the residence, the best public transport option is the Metro, with Jardim do Morro Station just a 3-minute walk away. If you prefer walking, you can cross the D. Luís I Bridge via the upper deck or head down to Cais de Gaia, cross the bridge, and arrive directly at Porto’s Ribeira. If you are traveling by car, the house has a garage with direct access to the residence.
In the area, you will find everything you need for your daily life, including supermarkets, restaurants, bars, and cafés.
We would love to welcome you.

Great View - Great Location
Beautiful sunset view looking down at the busy shops and restaurants along the Douro river. Short walk to the bridge over the Douro river to the Porto main centre. Spacious rooms and comfortable beds. Deck table and chairs worn and some in need of repair but did not deter us from enjoying sitting out. Close to supermarket just a short walk from the Jardim do morro park. We enjoyed our stay here.

Nice but disappointing
The location and size were perfect and you can’t beat the view! Worth noting one of the queen beds is actually two twins pushed together so you have this weird space you fall into in the middle of the bed. Upon arrival I was very disappointed in the cleanliness. There were cobwebs throughout the main living space, the walls are very dirty with handprints and scuffs, and the refrigerator has a horrible smell. They did send a cleaning crew out but it was 5 days later. The smell was never remedied. We had a few other issues which were addressed as well. The table on the deck needs to be replaced, it’s completely fallen apart. The upper level deck was not accessible which was disappointing as the loft gets super hot and there are no windows to air it out. There is a skylight but there was no means to open it. Any time I needed to contact them I received a quick response. If they would put a little TLC into a deep cleaning or even repainting it would go a long way. Definitely replace the fridge, the handles are even broken off! I’ve never had a place not provide coffee, basic pantry/kitchen items, laundry and dishwashing soap so that surprised me. I would stay here again if the above mentioned were taken care of.
