Description

Douro's Place | Porto

This modern two bedrooms apartment is situated directly on the Douro River, in the historic city, famous for Port wine and charming hilly walkways.

The city lies along the Douro River, 2 miles from the river's mouth on the Atlantic Ocean and 175 miles north of Lisbon. Porto is Portugal's second-largest city and has consistently shown up on lists of Europe's best small cities to visit.

Porto is just the perfect size to explore on foot. You'll enjoy wandering down its alleyways full of history and nostalgia. An evening walk along the Douro River, visiting the vibrant Mercado do Bolhão or sampling its renowned Port wine are just some of the many things you can do in this fascinating city.

This Douro's Place apartment is the perfect location to enjoy the city and relax in a modern, luxurious, renovated three-level flat. The building is located on a historic streetcar line and the double decker 500 bus route, by which you can easily reach the historic downtown, the affluent beachfront Foz neighborhood, or the beaches and plentiful seafood restaurants of Matosinhos.

As soon as you enter the apartment, the open space of the living room shows his magical ambient full of colour details and wooden elements. Guests will relax on the ample modern sofa in front of the fireplace. The fully equipped kitchen can be stocked with everything you need from a supermarket located a five minute walk away.

The rooms are furnished and tastefully decorated, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay in a modern and minimalist style that fits perfectly with the luminosity and harmony of this property. Touches of wooden elements with a contemporary style and vibrant colours add a lively and elegant ambience.

The expansive private roof deck, with chill-out areas, is the perfect place to enjoy a lovely Portuguese wine while admiring the views under the stars.

Wonderful stay, great hosts!

Places like Douro’s Place are what ThirdHome is all about. The apartment is filled with art and artifacts collected from around the globe, making our time in the home almost as interesting as our time wondering the streets of beautiful Porto! The hosts were fantastic, super communicative providing all the needed information well in advance of travel. Great experience! ”
