This comfortable and refined apartment 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 apartment is located in an Art Nouveau style building of Porto. Its 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, even for longer stays. 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.
Among classic furniture, an antique chest of drawers, a 19th century Portuguese settee, and an antique Chinese chest, you will find Portuguese furniture from the 70s and the iconic chair that the Portuguese designer José Espinho designed in the 60s for Olaio.
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 lamp from the 70s on the living room ceiling.
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).

We couldn’t have been more pleased with Jorge’s property. The apartment is gorgeous and beautifully kept. Jorge gave us maps and described all of the best spots to visit and eat, and even more remarkably, provided us with local port and wine and fresh fruit and cookies!!!! Truly unusual and lovely. And we loved the location.Thank you Jorge for a lovely introduction to your country!

Thank you so much for everything, it was a great pleasure to host you and your friends!
You won’t want to miss out on renting this place! It’s a 10. The host was fantastic. Manuela spent 45 minutes showing us the whole town and pointing out the best spots. The apartment was amazing, with such great attention to detail in its sparkling cleanliness. You can easily walk to everything. Porto is a wonderful town to explore.

Thank you so much! It's great to know you enjoyed the house's excellent location in the charismatic Duques neighborhood of Bonfim! It was a pleasure hosting you, we are always committed to providing excellent stays for our guests!
Jorge and Manuela are wonderful hosts. The apartment is beautiful, in a wonderful neighbourhood away from the hustle and bustle. Lovely treats after a long day on the hills. Fabulous balcony for having wine or coffee. You are greeted, escorted to your car park and given a very good lecture on what to do and where to do. Dona Mira restaurant around the corner was very handy. I would highly recommend this apartment.

Thank you so much for your lovely review!
We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay at our Art Nouveau Townhouse and its excellent location in the city center, in the charismatic Duques neighborhood (Bonfim).
Indeed, very close to the house, you will find art galleries and artisan shops, several interesting bars, with music only by vinyl records, cocktail bars, others with tapas, and some of the best restaurants in the city!
We are also close to several points of interest, such as the city's main theaters, the beautiful Art Deco Rivoli Theater, the imposing modernist/Deco Coliseu, and especially the oldest and most majestic, the National Theater de São João. Also close to Santa Catarina Street (one of the main streets in the city center and where the iconic Majestic café is located).
It was a great pleasure to host you and we look forward to your return!
This was the nicest Vrbo we have stayed in. The owner was amazing, he spent 20 minutes with a map explaining all the best restaurants, tourist sites, etc in the area after we checked in. He also showed us how everything worked. They provided wine, pastries, a giant bowl of fruit, coffee, teas, and biscuits in the room for us. I can’t say enough great things about the owners. The only negative I can say is only a personal thing, the bed upstairs was too firm for me but it didn’t matter as the rest of the place was beyond what we have experienced in a Vrbo. The decor, architecture, cleanliness, carpentry work- all superior. It is Close to many great restaurants and an easy walk to the touristy sections of town. We will be back and highly recommend it.

Thank you very much, it is very gratifying to know that we were able to provide you with a memorable stay.
Regarding our mattresses, in your case it is really a very personal matter, because our mattress supplier is one of the best brands and equips some of the international 5-star hotel chains.
It was a pleasure hosting you and we hope you return someday.
The house and host were both wonderful!Jorge greeted us upon our arrival (even accommodating an hour early), giving us a great overview of the local area and attractions. I appreciated how much time he spent and the conversation shared. There was delicious fresh fruit, several bottles of wine, and plenty of espresso and coffee.The location was perfect. Far enough from the touristy area, but very walkable. Would recommend the cafe nearby!The house was extremely clean, had all the amenities needed, and the terrace could not be beat. For those who like air conditioning and ice, both were available. Would easily stay here again and recommend to all!

The apartment is immaculate, bright and airy. The hosts addressed every detail. We would all highly recommend this property as this location is perfect… just outside the busiest area but with easy access to Portos wonderful attractions. It was a pleasure to meet the hosts Jorge and Manuela and their helpful friendly staff. If we return to Porto we know where we will stay.

Host was incredibly helpful and made our stay pleasant and comfortable as possible.

Thank you very much Monica, we are very happy and pleased that you enjoyed the apartment, its comfort and decoration, and the building we restored (with 5 more independent units). Its location in the Duques neighborhood (Bonfim) is indeed excellent for exploring Porto on foot.
We had a marvelous time stay at this property. It was very clean and centrally located. The hosts were great communicators and welcomed us to the property. Highly recommended.
The property exceeded all expectations - beautifully appointed, spacious with many extra touches that made our time very special. Our host, Jorge, offered information that made the stay even more comfortable and interesting.
Just as advertised! Lovely location, close to tourist attractions but a nice, quiet neighborhood. The apartment was perfect in every way for four adults. Manuela and Jorge provided an extensive amount of amenities from a large fruit basket to local wine and port. The common area was a nice stop after a long day of sightseeing. We will be back for sure!
One of the nicest vacation homes we’ve stayed in, this apartment in the Bonfin neighborhood was perfectly appointed, impeccably maintained, and felt like living in an aristocrat’s mansion. The hosts were amazing, extremely knowledgeable, obviously had high standards, and couldn’t be more cordial. We thoroughly enjoyed our week in the apartment. We highly recommend staying in this lovely building!
This is a perfect place to stay in Porto.The house has been renovated with great care and style.The apartment is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. It gets the afternoon sun inside and all day sun on the balcony which is shaded by lovely trees.It is well placed for public transport with direct buses to the centre and Foz and an easy walk to the main bus and train station for trips to other places.The communication and check in with the owners was excellent who also arranged airport transfers.Highly recommended.
nice location - was quiet - coffee shops close - grocery store - walking distance to all attractions - great hosts - only drawback was all units share 1 dryer so it was difficult to dry clothes

Thank you for your review, however so different from all the other that are all 5 stars...
Normally our guests appreciate the comfort, the decoration, the location of the accommodation, the beautiful sunny terrace.
We are sorry that the dryer in the laundry room shared by 3 studios was occupied when you decided to use it.
But we think it's a huge injustice for you to penalize us for this, as all you had to do was tell us and the maids would take care of your laundry (as we have this free service) or direct you to another laundry room we have in the building.
I therefore find your observation to be inelegant, inappropriate and meaningless to say the least.
I stayed here on a couples trip earlier this month and we all really enjoyed this apartment. It is a lovely apartment in a wonderful residential section of Porto. Jorge is a wonderful host and had great recommendations on where to go for food and site seeing. We greatly enjoyed a bar in the area he recommended and ended our nights there each night. The apartment is well equipped and quiet. Would definitely stay there again.
Beautiful Art Nouveau Townhouse in great neighborhood!
Absolutely loved our stay, and the hospitality provided by our hosts Jorge and Manuela. Restaurants, grocery’s and transportation nearby. Uber is very reasonable, and good way to avoid the hills of Porto. Stayed a week, and just touched the tip of the iceberg. Weather was wonderful, and not the crowds of summer. Highly recommend our accommodation.
This was a VERY relaxing and welcoming apartment, far from the tourist noise yet super close to all you want to see if you enjoy walking. Very neighborhood like with good local restaurants which Manuela is eager to share with you!! She was very very gracious and helpful and the parking garage was super close
A perfect retreat during our 3 nights in Porto. We were so comfortable after our long days of sightseeing, kicking off our shoes and totally relaxing with a glass of complementary port, in this beautiful townhouse.Seamless check in and out. Walking distance to everything. All four of us would highly recommend this property.
From the moment we stepped foot on this property we felt cared for. Up and beyond the usual stay! Jorge explained the details of the beautifully renovated apartment so we knew how to use everything and he also introduced us to many restaurants in the neighborhood. We went to three of them and they were great. Highly recommend this place!
So many amazing things to say about our experience. Jorge is an incredible host. The unit was lovely and every detail has been taken care of. The bowl of fruit is the finest we have seen anywhere, and most appreciated. Give this apartment a try. You will not be disappointed!
