What to do and see in Porto.
Winding small streets with old or renovated buildings give you the feeling you are back in the old days.
No need for a car to see all the beautiful tourist attractions. Walking is a must!
Don’t forget to see Lello’s Bookshop. One of the most beautiful bookshops in the world! They say the story of Harry Potter was born here. Frequently J.K. Rowling went up here or sat down to write in de coffee shop Majestic in Rua St. Catherina. When you are inside you might even think you will meet Harry Potter himself.

Among the old buildings you will find traditional Portuguese coffee shops and if you are lucky the people will sing old traditional Fado songs.

Are you tired of walking? An electric powered Tuktuk located at the beginning of Rua de Tras, only 25 meters from the apartment, is waiting for you.

Just around the corner you can find the nightlife in Rua de Candido dos Reis and Rua da Galeria de Paris.

There are boat taxi’s that can bring you from Porto to the other side of the river Douro. The Porto wine caves can be found here. Sandeman, Kopke, Taylors, Burmeister etc. They are all there.

But you can also take a walk and cross the Ponte Luis as well on top of the bridge or on ground level. If you cross the bridge on top then there is at the other end an electric cabin lift who can bring you down, meanwhile you can enjoy the view of Old Porto.

You want a day rest at the beach? No Problem. Take the electric Tram from Palacio da Bolsa among the Douro to Foz de Douro. The trip itself is already an attraction.

Enjoy!

Oporto Delight Apartments wish you an exciting stay......and be careful....

You might fall in love!

Close to everything!

The property is a great location for Porto visitors. Walking distance to nearly everything and close to public transportation. Sebastiaan is a great host and gave lots of good information for site seeing. He is also very helpful and quick to respond to questions. The property is as advertised and we greatly appreciated the air conditioning in the heat of the summertime. There is not a washing machine in the apartment but there is a great laundry facility less than a one-minute walk away.

Excellent property in great location

This is a great apartment in a perfect location for enjoying Porto. The owners met us to show us the apartment and to let us leave luggage before check in time. It has everything you might need and is very comfortable. We definitely recommend it.

Location, comfort and convenience

The property is exactly as shown in the pictures. Very bright and quiet throughout the day. Kitchen, bathroom were sufficiently stocked with everything you need. Plenty of dining options around but in case you need to get any grocery there is a minipreco within few minutes walk. There is also a coin laundry nearby. The apartment is within walking distance to many attractions. Even though it was raining most of the days we were there, we enjoyed walking everywhere through the winding streets. It really gave a feeling of living there as a local. Communication with Owner/property manager was easy, clear and prompt. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much!

About the host

Hosted by Sebastiaan Schaefers

Your hosts are Yolanda (Portuguese) and Sebastiaan (Dutch). They create the highest quality for their guests and their short stay in Porto. First, they make your stay in the apartment as comfortable as possible and guide you through the apartment and inform you how things work and where to find. They will give you the information you need for the tourist attractions in the neighborhood. They will make you fall in love with Porto as they did once too and still are.

Why they chose this property

The completely renovated property (original build in the 19th century has been designed in such a way that history and modern architecture come together. When you enter the building it shows modern architecture with an open steel main fence, a steel staircase, and an elevator to all floors. However, if you enter one of the apartments you will be thrown back in time. Completely renovated with high quality finish but with the original historic design kept as much as possible.

What makes this property unique

The neighborhood is the best in Porto! Torres de Clérigos, Lello Bookshop, Rua das Flores, Sao Bento Train station, Ribeira and the Douro, the wine caves, Pont Luis, the views (and there are some spectacular views), Aliados, St Catherina shopping street, Cafe Majestic. It is all possible within minutes of walking. If you want to have a lazy day.... take the electric historic tram nearby the Palácio da Bolsa and make a trip among the Douro to the beaches of Foz do Douro....and so many other interesting places to see. One week wouldn't be enough! You need to come back again!
