Vacation rentals with a washer and dryer in Arouca

Isa’s condo was absolutely beautiful and so clean. The view from every window was stunning. We were able to walk easily to restaurants and shops. If we ever had a question, they were quick to respond. The beds were very comfortable. We could not have been happier. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Porto!

We had a wonderful stay. The apt is in a great location with ocean and river views. We watched the sunset from the spacious and comfortable balcony daily. Luís has everything one needs for a very comfortable stay. He gave a very thorough orientation and showed us where we could find all the necessities. Every area of the apt. is comfortable. Luís provided recommendations to local restaurants. He really takes pride in providing a comfortable place for his guests to stay and it shows in the presentation. We will certainly return to Luís’ place in the future.

If I were to own a place in Porto this is the one I would want! Centrally located, within a short walk to all the major sights, it is on the top two floors on a corner with a terrace on both sides, great views in both directions, sun all day and as much privacy as you could hope for in the middle of a city. The classical building is beautifully restored. The apartment has superb minimalist detailing of the modern insertions: en suites, bathroom, kitchen and stair. It is excellent thermally. In mid-July the cool evenings balanced the warm days and with one bedroom window ajar at night we did not need the air-conditioning even on the upper living level. However you might want the well sealed external doors and windows closed for early morning garbage collections, and possibly for the street performers below during the afternoon and early evening but mostly we enjoyed the music and liveliness. It is expensive but worth it for the quality, especially if you need the second bedroom.

Beautiful apartment Great location Super clean I definitely recommend Claudia was responding quickly

Staying in Gaia on our visit to Porto was the right call for us. Beautiful sunset views, in my opinion better than the park or the bridge - right from the bedroom balcony - 9th floor. Just a few minute walk to Dom Luis bridge, 10-20 minutes down to the port warehouses and docks. Easy/lovely cross to Porto waterfront. Very comfortable - this place worked great and Sonia is very helpful and communicative.

Incredible location & everything we needed for a 3 day weekend visit

Large ultramodern flat. Great views. Good location.

We loved our stay in Porto! The apartment was beautiful, clean and comfortable, and their instructions were very easy to follow. Having a spot to park our car was also a great perk, especially since you can walk to everywhere from this spot easily. We highly recommend this spot if you’re in Porto!

Loved our stay at the Airbnb, it was very peaceful and quiet. Whenever, we went into the city, it was always refreshing to come back to serenity given the bustling nature of the city. The location is about a 16 mins ride to the center and 12 mins to the beach area (use bolt, it’s cheaper in Porto). Hugo was so accommodating and hospitable, we are so grateful as he made our trip better!. Upon arrival at the Airbnb, he had been waiting over 3 hours for us because there was a delay at security in the airport due to being short-staffed. He drove us to the super-market nearby, Continente, to buy groceries and gave us local recommendations one of which was Magina’s which was about a 10 mins walk from the Airbnb. We tried it and we quite liked it, mixed opinions on certain items, the steak burger was good. The Airbnb was clean, tidy and just as described with condiments. Each room had its own air-con, a plus for the bathrooms given how clean they were. Will highly recommend this Airbnb!

Our stay went perfectly. The house is ideally located close to the beach. Very pleasant stay and Ruca was very attentive. I would recommend it in a second.

Spacious, comfortable house with nice outdoor space, very nice shaded terrace. Good location for visiting Porto and the Douro Valley. "Méandro" restaurant next door, cheap, excellent with stunning views of the Douro. Graça and her husband are welcoming and responsive. Only downside, the presence of dogs barking++ ( kennel?). Graça has nothing to do with it, but noise pollution to report.

Amazing property and view. We had a terrific time. The property worked great for our group. Best sunset! Marco and his crew were extremely responsive. Driving in the Douro Valley is not for the faint of heart. We had a ball!

It seems impossible to write something new about Maria and her wonderful place at the Douro River that has not been already commented and praised by previous guests. The 5-star review rating for Casa do Rio is very well earned: it is a piece of heaven, tucked away in the Douro Valley and Maria - and not to forget her husband, Jose (who does not get enough praise in other reviews) - are exceptional hosts. We stayed for 3 weeks, with a number of our friends coming to visit us for shorter stays. Maria accommodate all of our changing check-in and check-out needs without a glitch. We enjoyed taking advantage of the many activities and entertainment options - including massages by Hugo (a master of his craft) that the location provides. One thing to be aware of: There is no shopping option and limited restaurant choices available in walking distance, hence a car is almost a necessity for a longer stay.

On our trip to Portugal, the Douro Valley was the highlight of the trip from the storybook views to the spread of freshly picked cherries, homemade preserves and wine awaiting our arrival to the cleanliness and comforts of a beautiful home perched high up on the vineyard terraced hills. The game room was an incredible surprise - there are seven eighties arcade games along with a ping pong table, a foosball table and an infinity game with over 150 board games built into the table. The hospitality was second to none. Gabrella, the property manager, was one step ahead of us ensuring that we had everything we needed to make our stays one of the most memorable. Sephi, the owner, is one of the most generous people we have ever met. His passion for region and willingness to offer his time to you is amazing. We spent one morning touring his winery, learning the old way of making wine and enjoying the fruits of his labor – an extraordinary experience not a just another Air BnB.

The location is really fantastic, although you can't go to sleep before midnight on weekends in fine weather. The hustle and bustle on the promenade sometimes goes on until the early hours of the morning.

Maria greeted us and had cheese and cold beverages and a few other amenities in the fridge , we were able to get some great information she was very friendly and helpful . The views were fantastic exactly like the photo’s . Went to the Espinho market on Monday it was huge great deals and something for everyone was easy to get there . Plenty of walkways all along the ocean you can walk for miles . The train station is very close that you can take to Porto just FYI if you do take the train to Sao Bento Porto which is the downtown you have to change to Train 2 at the main station. This area is easy to get around and parking was close and free. Would love to come back to this area to explore some more .

Ricardo has been responsive since the original booking months ago. The apartment was very clean, beds were comfortable, apartment was quiet. He met us there to give the instructions in person and was quick to respond for any needs. This place is highly recommended!

Tiago was very responsive. The place was excellent. Clean. Convenient location yet not loud from inside the unit. If I could’ve stayed longer, I would’ve. Thanks Tiago and your team!

Beautifully located! Wonderful view, excellent bakeries nearby. Good to have a secure, inside place to park our car.

It’s a bit of a climb up the stairs but we got used to it. The apartment is bright , very clean and comfortable. New appliances , English language news channels on the tv and It’s very quiet given the lively neighborhood. There is some renovation going on across the way so the view isn’t quite as nice as the photos just now but it’s a pleasure to sit by the big windows in the leather chairs drinking a glass of wine after a day on the town. It was good to have real keys as during the blackout lots of folks were locked out of their flats around us because all Entry was electric!

My family and I loved our stay. The condo was beautiful, clean, private and close to great restaurants, cafes, squares and bars. We easily walked navigated the neighborhood and walked all over the city. I highly recommend and would stay here again.

Great apartment and interior design with perfect location.

Rodrigo's apartment was absolutely perfect for our stay! I visited Porto for a business trip with my husband and one of my consultants. The apartment was large, beautiful, light filled, and had lots of space for us to spread out comfortably. We each had our own bathroom, the bedrooms were nicely sized, the AC worked great, the beds were comfortable, and everything was super clean! The apartment is in the Gaia neighborhood, which is quiet, peaceful and residential with walkable cafes and services. When we wanted to visit downtown Porto we would drive in or Uber - it is approximately a 10 minute ride. We had a rental car to drive to meetings daily and parking near the apartment was free and easy to find. Rodrigo allowed us to check in early and was prompt, kind and always helpful. The building and apartment are keyless entry and the whole process around the stay was seamless. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it highly!

This apartment is spectacular!! It has the feel of a luxury San Francisco penthouse apartment. We could listen to the waves at night. Multiple restaurants are within a 2 block area! While It's not technically IN Porto, it's a very inexpensive Uber ride away...and we saw a lot of the city that way without having to walk! The platform bed setup as one solid bed was a bit challenging for an older couple, but overall, the apartment made it worth the challenge! We'd definitely stay there again!
