About this property

Terrace Duplex in our Art Nouveau Townhouse

This comfortable and refined apartment is perfect for your holidays in Porto!
Upon arriving at the apartment from exploring the city, you will relax on the sunny terrace enjoying a Porto wine, against the background of the beautiful view of the “Duques” district with its tall trees.

The apartment is located in an Art Nouveau style building of Porto. Its restoration work is the result of our commitment to this family project.

On the entrance floor you will find a lounge where you can prepare your drink (we provide drinks to our guests), choose a book from the shelf in the hallway, listen to music, and breathe the atmosphere of the period, the typical atmosphere of a bourgeois house. of Porto from the turn of the 19th century to the 20th century
Via the elevator or stairs you go up to the apartment floor.

The apartment is very comfortable, bright and functional, even for longer stays.
The openly eclectic decor is punctuated by pieces from different periods and origins.
All these pieces are authentic and have been recovered.
This is the only way to achieve true sustainability of the planet and respect for nature.
All the old wood and beams in the house that had to be replaced were reused to make some furniture, namely the beds and headboards.

Among classic furniture, an antique chest of drawers, a 19th century Portuguese settee, and an antique Chinese chest, you will find Portuguese furniture from the 70s and the iconic chair that the Portuguese designer José Espinho designed in the 60s for Olaio.

The lighting is designed for you to enjoy great comfort. You will find different lamps from our collection, from the Hungarian wall lamps from a hotel in Budapest, to the Portuguese lamp from the 70s on the living room ceiling.

The "Duques" neighborhood is the ideal option for your stay, it is the coolest neighborhood, with soul and charisma in the center of Porto. The Faculty of Fine Arts of Porto is located there. Here you will find quality local shops, art galleries, excellent restaurants and vegan options if you wish.
It was considered the 4th coolest neighborhood in Europe in:
“10 of the coolest neighborhoods in Europe”. (February 8, 2020). "The Guardian"
Retrieved from: theguardian.com/travel/2020/feb/08/10-of-the-coolest-neighbourhoods-in-europe-paris-berlin-rome/

Just as advertised! Lovely location, close to tourist attractions but a nice, quiet neighborhood. The apartment was perfect in every way for four adults. Manuela and Jorge provided an extensive amount of amenities from a large fruit basket to local wine and port. The common area was a nice stop after a long day of sightseeing. We will be back for sure!

Dream home in a wonderful neighborhood

One of the nicest vacation homes we’ve stayed in, this apartment in the Bonfin neighborhood was perfectly appointed, impeccably maintained, and felt like living in an aristocrat’s mansion. The hosts were amazing, extremely knowledgeable, obviously had high standards, and couldn’t be more cordial. We thoroughly enjoyed our week in the apartment. We highly recommend staying in this lovely building!

Lovely Porto apartment

I stayed here on a couples trip earlier this month and we all really enjoyed this apartment. It is a lovely apartment in a wonderful residential section of Porto. Jorge is a wonderful host and had great recommendations on where to go for food and site seeing. We greatly enjoyed a bar in the area he recommended and ended our nights there each night. The apartment is well equipped and quiet. Would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful Art Nouveau Townhouse in great neighborhood!

Absolutely loved our stay, and the hospitality provided by our hosts Jorge and Manuela. Restaurants, grocery’s and transportation nearby. Uber is very reasonable, and good way to avoid the hills of Porto. Stayed a week, and just touched the tip of the iceberg. Weather was wonderful, and not the crowds of summer. Highly recommend our accommodation.

From the moment we stepped foot on this property we felt cared for. Up and beyond the usual stay! Jorge explained the details of the beautifully renovated apartment so we knew how to use everything and he also introduced us to many restaurants in the neighborhood. We went to three of them and they were great. Highly recommend this place!

Hidden gem in out of tourist area

If I could give 10 stars I would!! This beautifully remodeled apartment was in an old beautiful tiled building from the 1930’s. They have a sitting parlor as you come in so we were able to leave our bags and relax, Manuela brought up a beautiful bowl of fruit and many bottles of wine and port. She went over our map and recommended several good restaurants. Best VRBO I have ever stayed in!!!

Best VRBO in Europe

We had a fabulous stay in this beautiful big apartment. The owners provided us with every possible resource for our stay, and even did laundry for free. We sat down with them for an hour and learned the history of the building (built in 1911) including their history of purchase, and the 7- year renovation project by the architect owner. I can't recommend this properly more highly. It is superb!

There is also a lovely common seating area in the building where guests can enjoy complimentary port and treats. In our room on arrival, we also had a beautiful fruit basket and beverages to enjoy.

What a beautiful apartment Jorge has created, with amazing furnishings and features, such as the corner balcony with lovely vista. And what a lovely hostess Manuela is! We felt fully attended to and cared for by her the minute we arrived, including wonderful suggestions on sites, directions and restaurant options. Manuela was available to assist with every matter, big or small, urgent or not - could not ask for more from a host! Highly recommend both the delightful property and lovely people who will host you.
