Located in the heart of Vila nova de Gaia, this accommodation has been carefully designed to reflect the authenticity of the area and provide a complete experience, with all the modern amenities at your disposal.  
  
The Space:  
  
Enjoy this contemporary and pleasant apartment. It's perfect for your stay while exploring the city.  
  
Equipped Kitchen: With everything you need to prepare your meals, just like at home.  
  
Room: Quiet environments for restful relaxation, reflecting the simplicity and elegance of the city.  
  
Strategic Location: A few steps from the "General Torres" subway station and close to the tourist attractions: Ribeira, Jardim do Morro and Ponte Luis I, allowing you to easily explore what the city has to offer.  
  
The apartment has one garage space inside the building, making your group more secure about where to park.  
  
Have we already told you about the magnificent balcony that this apartment presents you? You will have the opportunity to drink a glass of Port wine while enjoying the VIEW of the Douro River and delighting in the history that all the buildings in the surroundings tell you. In addition, the magnificent apartment has a swimming pool shared with the other owners.  
  
Guest Access:  
  
All apartment space and amenities are included in this booking. Feel completely at home.  
  
The Neighborhood:  
  
If you ask, all people from Porto say that the best thing about GAIA is the view of PORTO, we don't know if it's true, but the main ATTRACTIONS of this city are on the BEIRA-RIO.  
  
THE LOCATION of the apartment allows you to be close to the METRO, which can take you directly to the center of PORTO, or if you prefer, you can walk while absorbing the views of RIO uniting the two cities, once rivals.  
  
To discover your CULTURE, be sure to visit the Monastery of SERRA DO PILAR and take a photo with a 360º view over PORTO and RIVER. Since it's so close, a piece of advice to RELAX: take advantage of an afternoon to have a PICNIC while watching the sunset at JARDIM DO MORRO, to the left of the board above LUIZ I BRIDGE. Don't forget to try a TOUR of the various CAVES OF PORT WINE in the city of Gaia.  
  
Getting Around:  
  
The apartment is just a 12-minute walk from Jardim do Morro, Serra do Pilar Monastery, and Ponte Luis I, some of Porto's main postcards. It is also 10 minutes away from the General Torres metro, so in 15 minutes you are in the center of Porto!  
  
It is also close to supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and all kinds of shops to make your stay as comfortable as possible.  
  
Just 10 minutes walking from General Torres metro, so you could reach Porto city center in 5 minutes!  
  
Other Things to Note:  
  
Booking this apartment requires payment of a deposit (€300) required by the owner. Please note that parties are not allowed and the silence rule is from 10 p.m. until 9 a.m. If the condominium reports any problems in this regard, a warning and possible penalty will be sent.
