Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Porto

Cristina and her husband Joaquin met us at the apartment and welcomed us like family. Cristina's personal touches, fresh flowered from her garden, robes, slippers and her warm and welcoming energy were just lovely. Joaquin gave us an incredible rundown on the map of the area. Cristina checked in with us regularly and made us feel like we had family nearby. The apartment is quite spacious. highly recommend.

What a lovely stay! We immediately had to take our own photos to show the family. The property is very well presented, and we were provided with fresh fruit and eggs on arrival. We also had access to the private garden (more like a forest), which led down to the river. An unexpected surprise! We recommend to anyone looking at this listing!

We had a truly wonderful stay at this charming house. It was spotless, beautifully decorated—just as pictured, if not better. Every little detail had been thoughtfully considered, from the comfortable bed and well-equipped kitchen and bathrooms to the local recommendations left by the host. The location was perfect—tucked away on a quiet street but still within easy walking distance of the river, shops, and all the best spots in the city. It felt like a real home away from home. Our host was incredibly kind, responsive, and welcoming, making check-in smooth and offering great tips on places to eat and things to see. It’s clear they genuinely care about their guests’ experience. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Porto!

Bruno was an excellent host, and had a wonderful accommodation. I will definitely be back in the future, thank you Bruno!

Christoph was incredibly friendly and responsive and his accommodation is beautiful. The attention to detail was so appreciated - would 100% recommend

We had such a glorious stay, we cannot recommend it enough. Carolina was super responsive and accommodating, gave us amazing recommendations of restaurants and kindly booked a couple of reservations for us. Everything is within walking distance throughout the city. The apartment is surrounded with beautiful views. The plunge pool was a lovely bonus to cool down in the late afternoon, not overlooked at all. Thank you again x

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 .

Clean and spacious and quiet. The street is bland but the sea is so near with great beach cafes. Pretty walk to the old city, or a nice bus ride. Ruben was super nice and helpful.

We had a super stay at Josefa's appartment. It was spacious, light and squeaky clean and also very cool which was welcome after long days of sight seeing! We loved Porto and Josefa's apartment and would love to come back :)

You are in the center of old town historical monuments. The washer and dryer saved me. There’s a supermarket about 5mins away. Close to everything and super quiet in the evenings.

Very nice place with perfect location in Gaia . Beautiful apartment with ocean view , kind host , nice people everywhere . The seafood around the river was extremely tasty .

This spot was in a central place and Sandra was proactive to get check-in instructions to me. This allowed for easy late check-in and there was a lil welcome snack which was nice after a long travel day. It very much has feels of a hotel room-- private room with small kitchen amenities, but it was exactly what i wanted. The balcony was cute to have especially because its over a bustling lil street. Really enjoyed this spot, was perfect for popping in and out of while exploring Porto.

Great location, beautiful apartment. We had a great stay. We strongly recommend!

⸻ I really enjoyed my stay here while visiting Porto! The apartment is centrally located, making it easy to walk to most of the places we wanted to explore. It was clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Cristina and Paula were incredibly kind and responsive—they checked in on us during our visit and made sure we had everything we needed. I especially appreciated all their recommendations—we loved the chicken spot they suggested and Gazela, which we ended up visiting multiple times! I would absolutely stay here again.

We really enjoyed staying at Claudia’s place. It was perfection - location, cleanliness, communication, clear instructions, ample supply of creature comforts. It’s on a historical street where Santiago de Compostela hikers come through. Can’t say enough good things about this unit. We would love to stay here again if we visit Porto again, highly recommend it.

Amazing location, friendly hosts who are easy to communicate with! There are great cafes and restaurants nearby. Highly recommend 👌

Pedro was very responsive and also a great host. He came to meet us and tell us how everything at the place works. He is super friendly as well and gave us a welcome gift. He represents what Airbnb is about with his great hosting attitude

The apartment is a delight from the moment you walk in. It is beautifully decorated and feels like a home. Great bathroom with amazing rain shower and hot water. Bedroom and kitchen and living areas are all well presented and equipped with all you need and with lots of additional touches. Very quiet for sleeping, and great air conditioning in bedroom and living area. Great location to explore Porto, and don’t even have to walk very far at all, including a great cafe next door, to find lovely eating places. Pedro was a wonderful host in every way.

Nuno’s Porto studio was great! The location is perfect as it has various great restaurants and cafes right on the same street and you can walk to anywhere in the city within 10-15 min. The place was a modern studio that was very clean and had cool views. Nuno was very responsive and accommodating. I would stay here again!

We spent 4 very pleasant days in the apartment, which is very well located in the center of Matosinhos and has all kinds of businesses nearby (also the beach!). It's great for a couple or a single person. And Fernando, the host, will give you all the information you need to enjoy your stay, and will be on hand to resolve any issues that will make your trip even more enjoyable. In short, a great experience!

We felt very confortable in the apartment and enjoyed our time in Porto. The apartment is well located and the attractions are within walking distance. I would especially like to mention the excellent communication with Miguel and Kristina. They were very attentive.

Martha was incredibly polite and responsive from the beginning. Martha also recommended some lovely places to eat. I honestly didn’t realise how central the location was. We walked everywhere, about 15,000 steps a day and there was plentiful and good value restaurants and bars locally. Martha was extremely kind and accommodated us by letting us leave our things in the apartment on our last day as there were no new guests to check in and we had a late flight. There is construction immediately next to the apartment but this had very little impact. I would 100% recommend this location anf Martha for her kindness and attentiveness.

Daniel is extremely friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble and very quick responses. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend any of Daniel's private tours which are much more personal. if we return to Porto we would definitely stay here again.

Location was really good and walkable to all main places within 10 minutes. House was as described and didn’t have any problems.
