Beautiful old home with so much character. Lots of room for our party of four , communication was great and checking in smooth. We walked and used uber which was very inexpensive, to get back and forth from the house.
A wonderfully charming and elegant apartment, spacious enough to accommodate our two families with children.Great communication with the hosts.A lovely stay overall.
The property was very spacious, accommodating seven of us comfortably. We all had our own bathrooms! Artur, the owner, was very responsive. Stores and eateries were close by and the location was excellent in terms of getting to our excursions. We were especially happy staying a distance from the city center.
Comfortable beds and pillows. Bathrooms splendid.
Good restaurants within walking distance.
General store selling fresh bread and basics round the corner.
Host always accessible.
My wife and I and another couple stayed in this very spacious property. It was clean well maintained. Although it is located a good distance from the main tourist stras it is only a short Uber ride. The owner is very easy to work with and responsive. Very good value.
This is a beautiful and clean house. I loved the wooden floors, the large rooms with high ceilings, and it was great to see the kids enjoy the garden after a day out. The owner Artur also made sure our stay was great and we had everything we needed (even gave us addresses of where to go with the kids :). Would come again when in Porto.
We had a 10 people three generations staying in the home. It was perfect for our family. The home was spacious and had all the amenities we required. It is a 20 minute walk to the downtown. Arthur is an awesome host he is easily reached and very responsive. He helped to coordinate our transportation from the airport and to the train station. There was a labour issue with the train travel and he was able to provide information and advice on how we were able to navigate our travel from Porto. We would come back to stay here the next time we are in Porto. Thanks again Arthur for being a great host.
A wonderful, authentic Portuguese town house with a delightful garden. It is a little way out if the city but no bad thing in the heat of the summer I would guess and easy to navigate from using public transport. Mixed ages 6 - 69, loads of immaculate bathrooms so everyone can ready reafy for the day at the same time!! Artur very helpful, always contactable. Wiuld definitely recommend this property.
March and December. Yes first stay so enjoyable came back with friends/family. The house is old world charm with updated bathrooms, windows, etc. It's truly a delight of three floors, loads of bathrooms and spacious everywhere! Artur the home owner is wonderful. He's always just a txt or call away. Recommend without reservation.
This is a great and very historical property. Feels worlds away when there. Lots of bedrooms, bathrooms, sitting areas, could not ask for more. Great location, easy walk to historical area of Porto, but you might want to cab back up the hill, which is inexpensive.
Artur is a great host, immediately available for any questions and with suggestions for the visit. Would definitely come back again! Thanks Artur from the five of us Canadians.
the house was perfect for 6 ladies travelling for a 60th birthday. The house has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms which was really spacious for us all. There is an outdoor terrance that gets afternoon sun which was a perfect setting for a drink in the evening.
The house is around a mile from the centre of Porto, which was perfect for us to get breakfast on our walk into Porto, Taxis are easy to get for those who don't like to walk.
We would choose this house again if there was a group of us visiting Porto. Great house for a group of friends or a family,

Thank you Julie for taking care of my house.
You and your friends always be very welcome.
We will be waiting for you for another 60s birthday.
This is another great property. It is a very nice house iwth a nice patio and garden to have your morning coffee or afternoon glass of wine. it is a very charming house with lots of rooms and updated bathrooms. Like most houses, there are a lot of stairs so if you have trouble walking up or down stairs just be aware of that.
Artur was great and attentive to our needs. The check in process was super easy and there are a few restaurants near by that were very good.
We woudl def stay here again.
Our family group had a very enjoyable experience visiting Porto and staying at Casa Familiar do Porto. The house , while renovated and with modern bathrooms retains the charm and feel of an early 20th century family home. It is well located within walking distance of local shops and several good restaurants.
Artur, our host,was very helpful and quickly attended. where possible, to any issues that arose during our stay. Recommended.
The house suited our group of 4 couples very well. We appreciated having our own bathrooms. We loved picking oranges and lemons in the backyard. (Middle April) Picking oranges took some climbing, however. Also, be prepared to climb stairs in the house. Artur the host was very quick to respond to any Communication I had with him.
We had a wonderful time staying at the Casa da Familiar in Porto! Our group consisted of 9 people: 2 children ages 6 & 12 and 7 adults. Artur was a wonderful host and responded quickly to any of our questions and needs. We could tell that he has put a lot of time and care into this home in restoring it and placing original furniture in all of the rooms. We loved exploring this home and it was in a great location for us to explore Porto either on foot or by car. We also heading north to Braga and Gimaraes and this was the perfect location for those day trips. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend this property for bigger family groups! Hope to be able to visit Portugal in the future, and we would definitely stay at this house again!

Thank you for your kind opinion.
We loved to have you at home.
You and yoour family will always be very welcome at our home.
This perfect Porto Christmas home was so enjoyed by our family of 10. Artur was absolutely the most phenomenal host. From the moment we booked our reservation, he was like our personal concierge. He offered to acquire a Christmas tree for us, he decorated it and even left chocolate ornaments for our grandson to decorate the tree along with a box of chocolates for the family. He provided so much care as if we were his own family coming home for the holidays. We cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay in this wonderful, charming home for the holidays for this very special trip with our extended family. He even provided a lovely Antique baby bed for our 2 1/2 year old. Every detail was taken care of by Artur. We shall certainly stay there again if our paths bless us with another opportunity to come to Portugal. It is a tremendous home away from home! .

Thank you very much for your comments.
I'm very grateful, and allow me to say that you and your family were a fantastic family and you will be always very welcome to our home.
It was a great pleasure knowing that you had a Christmas Eve as if you were at your own home.
Seriously impressed. Opened the front door to an oasis of charm, privacy, stately rooms, beautiful crown moldings, immaculate (and new) bathrooms & the list just goes on.
The home is insanely spacious. There are 5 bedrooms, 5 baths and so much personality you feel as if a close friend just invited you to make yourself at home. Stayed 2 weeks in March, invited some family from Ireland and everyone had a ball.
Artur (home owner) is wonderful. I felt as if we had a personal concierge at the end of my phone. Anything from restaurant recommendations, questions about the home and he even arranged limo transportation for 5 airport trips.
I don't give rave reviews lightly and am a serious critic when things are not right. I can't think of a single thing I would change or suggest. Artur really means it when he tells you to "make yourself at home".
Feel like I truly found a gem here, and definitely going to reserve again.

Thank you very much Kenneth for your kind evaluation.
You and your family and friends were fantastic guests. My home is always open to all of you.
Hope to see you soon.
Jose was a very good host, responding quickly to questions and when we lost water one day-it was an issue with the city. He takes pride in his house and it shows.
The house, three levels of 100-year old charm with updates, is a bit hard to review. The antique furniture is lovely and fits the house well, but takes up a lot of space in the dining room and isn’t terribly comfortable for relaxing at the house. While 10 people can sleep at the house, seating for meals and spending time together is limited.
The bathrooms are all newly renovated and absolutely beautiful! We really liked the feel of the house and well-chosen pieces in bedrooms. Some of the beds are very comfortable, others very hard.
The three levels made for good space, but the stairs are very difficult for people with knee problems, so make a wise choice for yourself. The sound also travels up the staircase, so privacy wasn’t as much as I’d hoped as each creak or the floorboards or door closing was amplified between floors.
I would also recommend that the kitchen be better equipped. We had to piece together enough plates for meals and the kitchen had two knives, one almost as old as the house itself. Improving amenities would make it wonderful.
The neighborhood is great for feeling like you’re truly living in Porto. We often walked to get groceries, dinner, coffee, and to the metro, which is easy to navigate. The street is very busy and at the home’s front door, so it can be a little noisy, but we tuned it out soon enough. There’s also a school behind the school, so it’s a little noisy, but the sounds are children laughing and playing, so it wasn’t a problem for us.
We enjoyed our time at the home and would recommend it as long as people know all the potential issues, depending on what you want from your time in Porto.
