Great Porto getaway

Ariana hosts a lovely flat, rustic, yet well appointed. Close to the mouth of River Duro, short Uber or tram to downtown Porto. Neighborhood is quiet with great walking opportunities to nearby shopping and restaurants.

Would recommend

Ariana is extremely responsive and checked in frequently throughout our stay to ensure our trip was running smoothly. We loved the accommodation - very quaint, lovely decor and cute. The backyard was nice to do a quick load of laundry. We had one odd man walk by and comment to us but overall a safe neighbor with dog walkers, children, etc.

Ariana went above and beyond for us. She gave great suggestions and was available whenever we needed her. The property was very nice, clean and comfortable. Unfortunately it was raining when we were there and we didn't get to use the outdoor space. We would return in a heartbeat and plan to do so next time we return to Porto.

Well appointed apartment

This is an ancient property that is well restored or updated. It has everything we needed. We love the area of Foz. Ariana is a great host and was super helpful in areas of restaurant recommendations, transport and very willing to communicate with you at any time through WhatsApp. She did point out that there is street noise from autos traveling over cobblestone streets, which is true. We have found the noise a common issue with all the old downtown properties we’ve rented in Germany, Italy, Belgium. It’s part of the reality of in-city living.

Great neighborhood location

Our place was located in a great little area giving us a feel for the real Porto. Lots of character, close to transit and fine restaurants. Arianna, the landlord, was most gracious. the apartment was simple, but clean and suited our needs nicely. Good positive experience all around.

Characterful ground floor flat with small terrace and access to attractive courtyard garden

Lovely conversion with traditional Portuguese character and some stylish personal touches. Facilities faily basic but everything works well, including a humidifier which takes the chill out of occasioal seamists. The proprietor Ariana has a real interest in making her guests feel comfortable in appealing surroundings. The setting is quite villagey in character and well placed for the 500 bus along the bank of the Douro into central Porto. A delightful park nearby on the mouth of the Douro, and Atlantic beaches within easy walking distance.

Tolle Lage, nette Wohnung, viel zu laut

Super nette Inhaberin, alles perfekt geklappt, das Apartment sehr sauber, tolle Lage und toll eingerichtet,aber nur drei Sterne,da sich das Schlafzimmer direkt an der Gassenstrasse befindet sowie die im ersten Stock vermietete Wohnung durch Holzboden sehr laut ist. Gleichzeitig läuft durch extrem feuchte Luft permanent ein Trocknungsgerät geräuschvoll. Beides war mir nicht bekannt, dann hätte ich es nicht gemietet. Nur für laut-unempflndliche Urlauber zu empfehlen.

About the host

Hosted by Ariana Magalhaes

Host profile image
I found early in my life that travelling and meeting new cultures is one of the best things one can do! During my travels around the world, I was able to see some of the most beautiful places on Earth, to learn fascinating angles of their history, and to taste amazing exotic foods. But in the end, it was always the human aspect of travelling that touched me the most. A simple welcoming smile, in the middle of nowhere, can bring the warmth and the cosiness of one's home. Human bonding overtakes any language barriers, and it is ultimately the single most rewarding life experience.
Hosting, in particular, is a subtle art that requires a heartful attitude and putting love in all the details. I feel privileged to be hosting you in my hometown, and I do hope that you can appreciate the charm and tranquility of my apartments.
Enjoy your stay in Porto!

Why they chose this property

With a fabulous locale, beautiful décor and a lovely terrace, the best of Porto's lifestyle is fully represented in this vacation jewel.
I look forward to hosting you in my hometown!
