This place exceeded our expectations! It’s an entire small apartment complex with 8 apartments and a terrace in the middle. We had a group of 13 including 3 families with 7 teenagers- they were all able to spread out comfortably! There is an elevator too- we were happy to see that! 3 studio apartments (full beds) on the first floor, 1 apartment with a king room and twin room on the second floor, 2 apartments each on both the third and fourth floors (one with a king room, one studio with a full bed.) It was very clean! Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. We had some difficulties with the combo washer/dryers, but I think they just take some getting used to. Lovely place! Would stay there again :)

BEAUTIFUL garden. Friendly hosts who meet you at check-in and walk you through the apartment! Well stocked kitchen. Very little noise buffer between rooms.We were told our party was the only ones in the building so we could leave the apartments unlocked (since our group filled every rental). Then we found several strangers in the halls at different moments, since apparently the property manager’s sibling rents out day use lockers in the hall as well. For us, it just made the stay a little uneasy. For most, it wouldn’t be a problem. Would happily come back, and recommend this place for folks looking for a solid, clean, no-frills base.

Thank you so much for your kind words Joyce. The lockers at the entrance of the building are private, usually only used by my guests, but the people arriving the same day you left or leaving the same day you arrived may need to use as well, like you had that option

Great for city access

Very clean, modern apartments right in the middle of Porto. Excellent location for access to walking to main city locations. Tour arranged by property host was excellent (Douro valley). Plus is an outside deck for group meeting.

Clean property, convenient location

For our Porto trip with family friends of 12, Northern Star is the perfect place to stay. It's located within stone's throw within the municipal hall but also quiet and serene. The host is super helpful. Communication is clear. The building is in great shape. Everyone is impressed with the choice of accommodation. We'll certainly come back if we visit Porto again.

Wonderful Stay in Porto - Highly Recommended

Dates: June 27 to July 1 I recently stayed at this VRBO property with a group of 19 family members for a family wedding in Porto. We had the entire apartment building to ourselves, which was perfect for our needs. Each couple had their own private room, complete with a full kitchen and bathroom. My suite accommodated four of us comfortably, while the other apartments and studios were ideal for two people each. The flexibility of the accommodation options was fantastic and suited everyone perfectly. The apartment itself exceeded all our expectations. It was spotless, well-maintained, and equipped with everything we could have asked for. The location was prime, putting us within easy reach of all the local attractions. We were particularly impressed by the support we received from Louisa and Filipe. They were amazing and always available to assist us with any questions or needs we had before and during our stay. This VRBO was the ideal place for our large group, and it would be just as perfect for a smaller group or couple. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking to stay in Porto. It provided us with comfort, convenience, and excellent service, making our family wedding trip truly memorable. Thank you Louisa and Filipe!!!

Séjour parfait

Nous avons séjourné dans la ville de Porto et avons profité de cet ensemble d'appartements. Nous étions un groupe de 12 amis, le logement se prêtait parfaitement à nos besoins, nous avions chacun notre indépendance, chaque appartement comportant une salle de bain, WC et cuisine équipée, et une terrasse commune qui nous permettait de partager des moments tous ensemble. Les appartements sont très bien équipés, très propre. Rien à redire sur le linge de lit et de maison.La communication avec Sousa était excellente, tant avant le séjour qu'à notre arrivée. Nous ne pouvons que recommandé ce logement.
