ELEGANT AND SPACIOUS ART DECO APARTMENT by GRANDMOTHER VICTORIA

This is the perfect apartment for those who like to relax at the end of the day, after exploring the city, drinking a Port wine in this refined and warm atmosphere, punctuated with vintage pieces from the first decades of the 20th century!
The great comfort of the apartment is guaranteed by the air conditioning and the excellent insulation and soundproofing, and also from the velvet and silk fabrics, and delicate sheets on the beds.

The apartment, in a traditional building from the 1940s, has just been completely restored. Its location is perfect for exploring the city of Porto on foot!

The kitchen is equipped with ceramic hob, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, oven, grill, espresso machine, kettle, etc., and washing machine and vacuum cleaner. Also available two LCD TVs and Wi-Fi connection.

It has two full bathrooms, and the details of the bedrooms are:

1 - the purple bedroom, very cozy, from wich the only opening is a large sliding glass door onto the bright entrance hall of the small balcony, and with thick curtains to cut the light.
The imposing rosewood bed from the first decade of the 19th century is in the traditional Portuguese style Dona Maria, and has a comfortable mattress of 1.40 x 2.00

2 - the green bedroom has a king-size bed (1.80 x 2.00) and mattress of the highest quality which can be separated into two single beds. There are blinds and curtains for total darkness.

3 - the red bedroom, warm and welcoming, with a sofa bed that opens and turns into a comfortable double bed of 1.40 x 2.00 , and also with thick blinds and curtains for total darkness.
To enter into the green bedroom you pass through the red bedroom, therefore, for an occupancy of up to 4 people, the green bedroom works like a large suite with antechamber and private bathroom

The apartment has two entrances. By the main entrance, the apartment is on the second floor,
without elevator, but with very comfortable stairs.
By the other entrance, access is through the gate below to the street and the comfortable outdoor stairs to the balcony.

The apartment includes free parking in a garage 50 meters from the building

Fresh fruit and Porto wine are offered for consumption on arrival free.

CLEANING AND DISINFECTION OF THE APARTMENT ARE SUBJECT TO A RIGOROUS CHECK BEFORE YOUR ARRIVAL to guarantee you maximum comfort and safety.
Environmentally friendly cleaning and disinfection products are used.
THE 5-STAR OPINIONS THROUGHOUT THESE YEARS GIVE YOU THE GUARANTEE THAT IT IS A PRIORITY FOR US!

Perfect Vacation Home
It was perfect from the start. The apartment was located in the heart of town and was very pleasant. We were greeted by our very hospitable host, Manuela. There was a huge basket of fruits and a bottle of port and other drinks waiting for us. Then she went to great lengths to recommend places of interests and restaurants on the map, all of which were spot on. We have no doubt that we will be back to stay longer the next time around.

Stylish, Well-Maintained, Comfortable
I stayed five weeks in this large comfortable apartment. It is well-furnished with a full kitchen, two complete bathrooms, and three bedrooms. The living room is large and comfortable, and there are three places to gather to eat: the kitchen, balcony table, and dining table. The bedrooms are private, and there are doors to insure sound proofing within the apartment between bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces. I loved the neighborhood--close to everything but not too busy except on weekends. The hosts were responsive and went out of their way to answer questions and to tell me what to see in the neighborhood and beyond. I would recommend this apartment--a five star experience in lovely Porto!

Wonderful Stay In Porto
Very comfortable, chic apartment was great home base for our stay in Porto area with my son and his wife. Property is well equipped and spotless! Owner gave a full orientation and recommendations for shopping, dining and attractions. The indoor parking garage (~3 blocks away) was a HUGE bonus providing 24hr, simple vehicle access to support our day trips to Douro Valley, Aveiro and Guimaraes day trips. Grocery store right down the block and many sites in Central Porto in walking distance. Highly recommend and hope to return.

Highly recommend! A special place in a great location.
This apartment is a special place and in a great location. The owners take great pride which is evident throughout. The beds were very comfortable, the home was very well equipped with everything you'd need. Communication with Jorge was wonderful and informative. He even made reservations for us at a restuarant. The large grocery store is just a 1/2 block away which was super convenient. Many stores and restaurants just a block away and very easy to walk everywhere else. If you don't feel like walking, it's easy to get an Uber or Bolt quickly. Internet was slow but besides that, it was a 10. We highly recommend!!

Lovely and well appointed apartment.
The apartment was very comfortable, clean and well-appointed. Manuela was there to greet us and get us settled. She was spot-on with where to go, what to do and recommendations for restaurants. She couldn’t have been more helpful. The delicious bottle of local port was appreciated! Thanks for everything Manuela!
