You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Rooftop Duplex in our Art Nouveau Townhouse

This comfortable and refined studio is perfect for your holidays in Porto!
Upon arriving at the apartment from exploring the city, you will relax on the sunny terrace enjoying a Porto wine, against the background of the beautiful view of the “Duques” district with its tall trees.

The Estudio is located in an Art Nouveau style building of Porto. The building's restoration work is the result of our commitment to this family project.

On the entrance floor you will find a lounge where you can prepare your drink (we provide drinks to our guests), choose a book from the shelf in the hallway, listen to music, and breathe the atmosphere of the period, the typical atmosphere of a bourgeois house. of Porto from the turn of the 19th century to the 20th century
Via the elevator or stairs you go up to the apartment floor.

The apartment is very comfortable, bright and functional.
The openly eclectic decor is punctuated by pieces from different periods and origins.
All these pieces are authentic and have been recovered.
This is the only way to achieve true sustainability of the planet and respect for nature.
All the old wood and beams in the house that had to be replaced were reused to make some furniture, namely the beds and headboards.

Between some Art Deco furniture and the small table from the late 19th century you will find some Pop pieces from the 70s, such as the classic “Space Ball” radio from 1970, the Weltron Model 2001.

The lighting is designed for you to enjoy great comfort. You will find different lamps from our collection, from the Hungarian wall lamps, from a hotel in Budapest, to the Portuguese ceiling lamp from the 50s.

The "Duques" neighborhood is the ideal option for your stay, it is the coolest neighborhood, with soul and charisma in the center of Porto. The Faculty of Fine Arts of Porto is located there. Here you will find quality local shops, art galleries, excellent restaurants and vegan options if you wish.
It was considered the 4th coolest neighborhood in Europe in:
“10 of the coolest neighborhoods in Europe”. (February 8, 2020). "The Guardian"
Retrieved from: theguardian.com/travel/2020/feb/08/10-of-the-coolest-neighbourhoods-in-europe-paris-berlin-rome/
From these streets crowned with tall trees and beautiful facades from the turn of the 19th to the 20th century, you can reach the main points of interest in the center of Porto on foot.

Fresh fruit and port wine are offered for consumption upon arrival.

The host, Jorge, was very welcoming--friendly and generous with his time explaining the apartment and nearby restaurants and bars. It was the best equipped VRBO I've ever been in, with lots of condiments, coffee, fruit, even wine and pastries.

Loved Porto AND loved the apartment

We spent five nights in the Art Nouveau rooftop duplex and enjoyed it and Porto immensely! The place was immaculate and extras were really appreciated - fresh fruit, port wine, candies and cookies. What's not to like about cookies! Manuela was a gracious host and walked us through sights to see, restaurants and the neighbourhood in detail. Comfy bed but watch not to bump your head on the sloped ceiling!

Can you give 6 stars?

This place was perfection, and I rarely say that or give 5 stars. The host and his sister could teach classes on how to host. Perfectly clean, beautiful apartment, stocked with everything you would need including cookies and port. Fruit basket on arrival and cleaning while we were here. I would not go or stay anywhere else. Perfection.

Bijou apartment

Stayed for one week. Great location. Good local shops and easy walk into the main city areas. Generous hosts- fruit, port,and basics in the kitchen all provided. We enjoyed our stay but despite being short (5ft 2 inches and 5ft 8 inches tall) we did find the bedroom bijou/small. It is advertised very clearly as 'low headroom' Im afraid this would put us off re booking. There were larger apartments in the block owned and decorated similarly by the same host- would considere one of these larger spaces.

100% recommend!

If I have another trip to Porto I will absolutely be booking with Jorge again and will recommend to book here to even the most discerning friend! The neighborhood was beautiful and very walkable to areas you may want to visit. The townhome was beautiful. They laid out snacks and Port in the communal area that we enjoyed with our friends also staying in the townhome. The Balcony apartment was very nice with every amenity you could want. Jorge left us complementary wine and port in the apartment and even delivered more coffee and towels a few days into our stay. This is really a special place and I look forward to staying here again. Thank you Jorge and Manuela for a wonderful stay!

The flat is very clean and functional. It is clearly shown on the VRBO site regarding the head room for the bedroom and the sloped ceiling. There are no surprises. The host Manuela was extremely helpful and wonderful to deal with.

Come see Porto!

I love it when a host really thinks about how best to make their property an enjoyable place for a visit. From the welcoming Port and comfy chairs in the entrance, to the space it self, which was so stylish and utilized in the best ways possible. Jorge is top notch. Highly recommend!

Stay out of Tourist areas

This property was the best property we staid in during our month long trip to Portugal. It was cute, had everything needed, loved the small deck for evenings. Kitchen was well stocked Great, quiet fun neighborhood, but close enough to the waterfront, without the noise and turmoil. Several great restaurants in the area.

Paradise in Porto!

My spouse and I had a fabulous stay in the Balcony Studio in a very swanky, Art Nouveau styled house. Everything seemed upscale and new. The lobby was richly appointed in a funky 1920’s era style. Port wines, Portuguese cookies and candies were in place within the lobby 24/7 to partake at your leisure. Our balcony studio was huge. Two showered bathrooms, washer, kitchen and even a balcony off the living room! The surrounding area is an authentic “Portuguese” neighborhood. Not touristy at all. Very safe as we often returned back to the apartment well after 11pm. Jorge and his sister Manuela are extremely friendly and quite knowledgeable about their city. We had the best time in the Balcony Studio and highly recommend this prize and can’t wait to return!
