This place is on par with luxury boutique hotels in Paris and New York complete with a decanter of port wine overlooking the river - and it’s in the most stunning location in central Porto with an INCREDIBLE view of the Douro river right from your window! It is a place of peace, relaxation and luxury which still feels like home, a true slice of heaven! Isabel was the best host I’ve ever worked with. She didn’t just give you the keys and run; she truly guided us through our experience in Porto by providing ample recommendations and answering questions quickly.

The bed was comfortable and the pillows excellent. A truly good location but walking to and from will, as most of Porto, require you to navigate hills. We appreciated the workout on our calves but understand not everyone would like such a walk. ##### Chris H. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kyle T.

First of all, Isabel met us at the front door, and gave us a detailed introduction to the suite plus at least 20-30 minutes of her time showing us on a tourist map places we may wish to visit/restaurants etc. Location is stellar if you are willing and able to walk the hills and explore Porto on foot. The suite overlooks the river which we enjoyed every much, and is beautifully decorated and clean. We had everything we needed. The bed is very comfortable! ##### Carolyn G.

Isabel proved to be an exceptional host, taking significant steps to make our stay memorable. The Duoro Valley wine tour and river cruise she organized stood out as a highlight of our trip, adding a special touch to our experience. Additionally, her transportation service from the airport was quite convenient; Andra greeted us with a sign, which made our arrival feel smooth and hassle-free.Her home was not only comfortable but also located in a fantastic spot with beautiful views of the Duoro River. The kitchen was well-equipped, and we particularly enjoyed the excellent water pressure and cozy bed. Communication with Isabel was always pleasant, and the checkout process was straightforward.We also had the pleasure of dining at two wonderful restaurants from her extensive recommendations, and each meal was more enjoyable than the last.

We had the most wonderful driver and tour guide and a lovely breakfast delivered every morning all arranged by Isabel. We were able to walk everywhere. She is an exceptional host and her apartment is a perfect place to stay. It was a dream vacation! When we come back to Porto, we will always stay at Isabel’s lovely home. ##### elizabeth m.

Apartment is beautiful, clean, modern decor in very old building, opens directly onto steep, narrow stone road. View of Douro River from windows. Great location, short walk to River and center city sites. About 30 stair walk up, but worth it for the view and highly recommend if mobility not an issue. Added bonus is neighborhood laundress who does wash/dry/fold for €5,50 per load! ##### Bob S. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin B.

It was beautifully decorated & the river view was perfect. But more than that, Isabel was a wonderful hostess. We communicated for months ahead of our stay, helping me make plans. When we arrived, she sat with us for about an hour giving us outstanding advice of where to go in Porto (marking everything on a map). She even booked the Douro River Valley tour for us. And her restaurant recommendations were amazing. She also arranged breakfast for us that was made by a local woman and was delivered right on time which was delightful. I highly recommend staying in Isabel’s VRBO. You won’t be disappointed. ##### Anne D. Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hollee M.

Isabel greeted us upon our arrival. She and her son helped us with our luggage and spent time telling us about all of the recommended sights and activities around the city. The apartment was immaculate and a a perfect location for walking to many of the beautiful sites in the city. We were able to enjoy a view of the river from the apartment also. Isabel was so responsive from the time we booked the apartment until the time we checked out. She provided a lot of information about the city and answered any questions we had. We highly recommend Isabel's apartment and hope to visit again one day. ##### Hollee M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas F.

From the moment we first contacted Isabel, it was obvious she loved both Porto and her home. She was very clear in her communications with us and built up our expectations - she did not disappoint! Porto has a lot to offer in terms of history, architecture, landscape etc and Isabel provided many useful suggestions re tours, sites and restaurants. We found her home to be very clean and comfortable. As others have noted while it is conveniently located to major sites, her home is in a quiet area of town. Isabel provided useful parking suggestions and we were able to secure a spot within minutes of the apartment. We look forward to visiting Porto in the future and hopefully able to again enjoy the hospitality of Isabel. ##### Thomas F. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynne M.

Her recommendations for a personal 3 hour Tour of Porto and a personal All day Tour of the Douro Valley were excellent. Interestingly the two guides both regarded her highly as did the two taxi drivers that she arranged for us for transportation to and from the airport. She doesn’t suffer fools gladly. We were particularly worried about the 3:00 am pick-up. Would he actually arrive ? This was a needless concern. He was at the door on time. There is an old saying about “there being a good man or woman behind every successful man or woman”. In Isobel’s case i would say she has a very competent group of outside sources behind her. ##### Lynne M. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jim E.
