Here, you are close to the fantastic environment of Fontainhas, one of the most typical neighbourhoods in Porto. This is also where you can take the most impressive photos of the river area! This natural viewpoint offers lots of breathless views.

This is the main picturesque place for June's local, popular St. John festivities. It is a fantastic place to watch the fireworks on June 23rd, and the area remains quite authentic, with traditional restaurants, antique and second-hand shops, and local families living there for decades.

You can walk from here to anywhere in Porto city centre: Ponte do Infante, for instance, is 300 m away from Home, and so is Praça dos Poveiros, a vibrant and busy meal spot in the city. You will get to the great, iron D. Luis Bridge upper level, to the Cathedral or Aliados Avenue, within a 10-minute walk.

The property is easily accessible by public transport and car.

The nearest metro station, S. Bento, is just a 900-meter walk.

Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport is a 25-minute drive from the property.

Douro River apartment review
We recently stayed at this apartment and found both positives and significant issues. On the plus side, the apartment is beautifully decorated and offers a stunning view from one of the bedrooms. If you're driving, parking is tight but manageable. However, there were major concerns regarding the water supply. The water pressure throughout the property is extremely low, making it impossible for more than one person to use the bathroom facilities at the same time. Flushing a toilet disrupts the water supply to the sinks and showers in all bathrooms, effectively rendering them unusable simultaneously. One of the bathrooms had no hot water at all; turning the lever to the hot position resulted in the water completely shutting off, leaving only cold water available in any other setting. This situation made it impractical for multiple people to use the bathrooms as intended so it made it pointless for us to have a 3 bathroom apartment, but only being able to use 1 bathroom at a time. Despite our understanding that Porto is an old city, these water issues should have been clearly disclosed in the listing. Using the toilet meant no water for washing hands or showering—this was highly problematic, especially when you have multiple people staying in one apartment. By the second day unpleasant sewer odors began coming out of the hallway bathroom and seeping into the living area. While the apartment has aesthetic appeal the water issues greatly impacted our stay.
