Neighborhood - This is a very quiet area, perfect for relaxing and resting. Enjoy long walks by the beach, reading a book in total silence, a glass of wine overlooking the sunset, the sun and natural light!

The apartment is 5 mins by car (or metro) from the city of Vila do Conde and 20 mins by car (or metro) to Oporto city. The beach is still unspoiled by mass tourism and it's only used by locals (search online for Praia de Azurara for pictures).

There are a few cafes, bakeries, supermarkets, restaurants and a nightclub within walking distance.

Short car trips to historical places Guimarães, Braga, Viana do Castelo and the scenic Mountain of Gerês.

And of course, Oporto city with its historical places, architecture, museums, amazing food, and Port Wine cellars!

Getting around - It's really easy to get around, search online for 'metro do porto', the area is served by the red line of the metropolitan, which goes directly to Oporto, airport, Vila do Conde city center, etc. The metro stop is ~20 min walk from the apartment complex.
- A taxi from the airport to the apartment is ~25€.
- The best option however is to rent a car as it will give you the freedom to visit amazing historical places like Viana do Castelo, Braga, Guimarães and of course, Oporto!

Spectacular Experience
The apartment is exactly as seen in the online pics. The view are amazing. The beach a stone throw away - and there is one of the best cafe just around the corner! The checkin and checkout process was seamless - Nuno (property manager) was exceptionally helpful and accommodating. I will certainly be renting the apartment every time I return to visit family… HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Huge apartment by the sea
The property had loads of space plus a great balcony which caught the afternoon and evening sun. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and the showers were powerful. Just metres from the wild beach and a great restaurant, plus an easy walk in to Vale Do Conde for more great restaurants and shops.

property was lovely well kept every appliance worked well. we booked a ground floor apartment but when we got there we were three floors up. We also were not informed prior to our stay that the swimming pool was out of use due to being repaired and we were unable to use it for the whole of our stay. the pool was one of the reasons for booking this apartment. The apartment is also quite a way from any shops etc which meant getting the car out every time we needed shopping

Large Condo
The condo was a nice quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Nuno, the manager, was very friendly and responsive. Despite our unplanned late arrival, he went out of his way to make sure to meet us once we arrived and answer questions about how things worked in the unit. The beach and boardwalk are in front of the building and the nearby town of Vila do Conde is very pretty. A car is needed to get around although you could walk to town or the train station if necessary. The train to Porto is about 40-50 min. The location of the condo was a bit difficult to find on GPS but we put in a nearby restaurant (Inova Beach Restaurant) as our target and it got us back easily each time.

It was wonderful ... the apartment , the location , friendly locals
The property was lovely everything there you could want .. including beach accessories, everything thought of 😁 tasteful decor and furnishings , very homely, totally home from home with a small outdoor swimming pool , local cafe snack bar very convenient for apartment and beach which was amazing very sandy and ideal for surfers , sunbathing or building sand castles 😁 Local shops a bit of a walk so would benifit from a hire car or alternatively an uber account ... lovely little town the other side of the river well worth a visit and all the shops and parks there 😁 Local churches also worth a visit and in walking distance . We were lucky and had glorious weather so all in all a totally amazing relaxing week in a wonderful fully equipped apartment. We were met by Paulo who was very pleasant and friendly and also came to see us in last day to check out . We will definitely be returning to this apartment , and thankyou very much

A very modern and clean apartment, with all modern conveniences.
A great location for the beach. Wonderful walks along the board walk to the local beach bar, great food and friendly staff. A car would be ideal, however, the metro is approximately 20 mins walk away and convenient to explore the local area and 40 mins from Porto. An amazing city with lots to see & visit. A great atmosphere day or night especially along the river, with amazing cafes and restaurants.

Lovely apartment with everything you need. All facilities are clean and well maintained. Location is right next to beautiful beach and great local beach bar for coffee, drinks and Pastel de natas. For other restaurants, the town of Vila do Conde is 20-30 minute walk. Metro stop to access Porto is similar distance.

Fantastic apartment with all amenities,loved it.
A lovely spacious apartment ideally situated near to the beach, we had everything we needed in the flat which was tastefully furnished. Only 5 mins walk to the beach not on the beach but still close enough. Only negatives were 1. Owners agent Paulo didn't have the property ready on time it would have been nice if he let us know so we weren't hanging around 3 hours or more, he also arranged to meet us on the Friday evening for return handover but didn't show up, unreliable. 2. A couple of the apartments in the same block own dogs which are left unattended and bark constantly, very annoying..

Tolle Wohnung am Meer
Die Lage ist etwa 20 min fußläufig vom Ort Vila do Conde entfernt. In der Nähe befinden sich mehrere Restaurants, eine Bäckerei und eine Tankstelle. Auch Bushaltestelle und U-Bahnhaltestelle sind fußläufig erreichbar, sodass man von hier aus Ausflüge z.B. nach Porto oder Lissabon unternehmen kann. Die Wohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet, Handtücher und Bettwäsche werden gestellt. Besonders zu erwähnen ist die persönliche Übergabe der Schlüssel und Einweisung vom freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Wohnungsverwalter, der viele Tipps auch für Ziele in der Umgebung hatte.

Modernes Apartment in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Meer mit sehr guter Ausstattung
Wir hatten für 5 Personen (2 Erwachsene plus 3 Kinder im Alter zwischen 12 und 18 Jahren) das Apartment für einen spontanen Aufenthalt in Porto gebucht. Der Check-In sowie die Schlüsselübergabe hat schnell und problemlos funktioniert, das Apartment selber ist modern und sauber mit allem ausgestattet, was wir in dieser einen Woche benötigt haben. Einziges Manko: Es sind Betten für 4 Personen vorhanden, d.h. der Fünfte von uns musste auf dem Sofa schlafen, was zwar in Ordnung war, aber nicht sehr komfortabel. Ansonsten können wir die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen.
