Review from one of first guests published in another website,

«From the moment we stepped into LEBAZI DOURO apartment, we were blown away. This place is on par with luxury boutique hotels in Paris and New York complete with a decanter of port wine overlooking the river - and it’s in the most stunning location in central Porto with an INCREDIBLE view of the Douro river right from your window! It is a place of peace, relaxation and luxury which still feels like home, a true slice of heaven! Isabel was the best host I’ve ever worked with. She didn’t just give you the keys and run; she truly guided us through our experience in Porto by providing ample recommendations and answering questions quickly. She made us feel so at home, it brought the experience to a whole other level! Any and all would be privileged to have a stay at LEBAZI DOURO, we are already planning our next trip back!...»

You may are asking : Does Porto have a beach?
The answer is yes. A wonderful beach is just 15 minutes away, and it will make your stay unforgettable.

All that you want to see in Porto, just a few steps from your home! Believe me, this is hands down the best area to stay in Porto!


Check-in and check-out times:
Delighted to be as flexible as possible, especially if the home is not rented for the same day. Send me your request, and I'll be thrilled to accommodate you!

Wonderful Property AND Host!
Isabel’s apartment is beautifully decorated and centrally located! I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Porto. The host, Isabel, also went above and beyond - providing us with a list of recommendations (restaurants, cafes, parks, events, etc.), and helping us book a driver to/from the property. You can tell she really loves her city and finds joy in sharing Porto with her guests. We hope to return to Porto, and will absolutely book w/ Isabel again!

Two nights in Porto
Isabel was a fantastic host, met us at the property with a map and suggestions for places to go and things to do, property was well kept and very clean. One word of warning, the property is on quite a steep hill, so those ith a large amount of luggage and/or those not comfortable with hills should be careful.

Wonderful apartment in old town Porto, great view of Douro River
The Host was phenomenal, provided lots of information, very helpful. Apartment is beautiful, clean, modern decor in very old building, opens directly onto steep, narrow stone road. View of Douro River from windows. Great location, short walk to River and center city sites. About 30 stair walk up, but worth it for the view and highly recommend if mobility not an issue. Added bonus is neighborhood laundress who does wash/dry/fold for €5,50 per load!

Paradise in Porto
Puerto was the first city we visited during our trip to Portugal. It could not have been a better experience, and it was made much richer due to the care and attentiveness of our host, Isabel. The home was beautiful, clean, and located precisely where we had hoped.—close to the center of activities, yet in a peaceful neighborhood. If you plan to visit, Porto, you will not go wrong by choosing this property, and working with Isabel, a true delight.

Fantastic apartment!
Isabell was more than I could’ve. Hope for! Not only did she keep in touch with me a year after I had to cancel my previous trip due to Covid, but she went above and beyond with her recommendations and her arrangements for certain tours and transportation. Great location, close to all the fun happenings in this amazing city.

The Perfect Stay
From the moment we arrived in Porto picked up by the driver Isobel had arranged for us. She was there to meet us at her amazing apartment which has a great view over the river. It had everything we needed and was perfectly clean. We took her advise on all the places to visit and found a few places along the way. The people were lovely, the food and wine delicious. Isobel is a wonderful host. We hope to return!

Perfect in Porto
Isabel was the perfect hostess to her apartment. She was readily available to answer any question we had. She provided us with restaurant suggestion, sights to see in Porto, as well as setting a tour of the Duoro Valley. The apartment was immaculate and the bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend staying at this apartment.

This was our first international VRBO stay and it didn’t disappoint. I could go on and on, but the host Isabel, from the first 5 minutes after booking was messaging me about what we could expect and if we needed anything. This continue for months prior and she was soooo helpful with suggestions for dinner and places to see. She was the best and I highly suggest you book this property.

Great place with a great host overlooking the Duoro
We started our first visit to Portugal with a 3 night stay at Isabel's lovey home. This home was as advertised, clean, comfortable and well located. Three days were not enough to take in all of Isabel's recommendations however those we did were well worth it, including the restaurant, Intrigo, at the top of the street and Cantina 32 on Flores as well as Diago's wine tour to the Duoro. We very much enjoyed our short time in the Porto area and Isabel's home and her hospitality were a major part in making the days as enjoyable as they were.

Beautiful city - great apartment!
From the moment we first contacted Isabel, it was obvious she loved both Porto and her home. She was very clear in her communications with us and built up our expectations - she did not disappoint! Porto has a lot to offer in terms of history, architecture, landscape etc and Isabel provided many useful suggestions re tours, sites and restaurants. We found her home to be very clean and comfortable. As others have noted while it is conveniently located to major sites, her home is in a quiet area of town. Isabel provided useful parking suggestions and we were able to secure a spot within minutes of the apartment. We look forward to visiting Porto in the future and hopefully able to again enjoy the hospitality of Isabel.

Beautiful and convenient!
Isabel was an amazing host. She met with us when we arrived and went over a map of the city and what sights she thought were important. She also sent many great recommendations for restaurants. The suggestions we tried were wonderful. The apartment is beautifully done and has a spectacular view. It is a small studio but we found it totally comfortable. As others have commented the bed was great! I wish we stayed longer and would definitely stay here again on a future trip to Porto.

Fantastic apartment!
This apartment was perfect for our stay in Porto. It's beautifully furnished, conveniently located, and very comfortable! Prior to our arrival, Isabel was very quick to respond to our messages, and check-in arrangements worked exactly as planned. Isabel was so helpful in providing a wealth of information about restaurants and activities we might want to consider. She also arranged for us to take a tour of the Douro Valley with Mandala Travel, and she ordered a beautiful breakfast delivery for our first morning in Porto. Isabel is a wonderful host, and we loved staying in her apartment. We would highly recommend this beautiful place to all of our friends!

Amazing Host
My wife and I chose this place based on reviews of not only the property but even more so based on the five star reviews of the owner / host. This is the first VRBO I have stayed at where the place and the reviews did not come close to how great this place is and how amazing the host is. Isabel went above and beyond in all aspects. She was responsive and full of information. Isabel helped to arrange an incredible marriage proposal that exceeded anything that I could have arranged on my own. Isabel is proud of her city and is eager to share it with you. She has extensive local knowledge, and business connections to help you have the greatest experience in Porto and the local areas.

Isabel was a lovely host. She went above and beyond making me feel at home and helped me when my luggage was delayed. Isabel answered all of my questions and shared suggestions on things to do in the area. The apartment is exactly how it is pictured. Beautiful decor and a stunning view! The location is perfect to walk everywhere and the trolley or bus line is right nearby. I wish I had more time in Porto and I look forward to coming back! Until next time...

Beautiful, modern and romantic
Isabel met us at the property upon our arrival and gave us information abouy Porto, places to eat, to go and how to get around. She also checked on us throughout the stay letting us know anything gong on like live fado. We were very comfortable in the apartment and enjoyed resting there with a bottle of wine and enjoying the view. The apartment is close to many things to do and the people of Portugal make you feel at home. There are stairs and and the street in on an incline. We are older and still manage fine. Beautiful city. Wished we had a few more days.

Kudos to Isobel’s support team
We agree with everything previous reviewers have said about Isabel’s attentiveness. Her recommendations for a personal 3 hour Tour of Porto and a personal All day Tour of the Douro Valley were excellent. Interestingly the two guides both regarded her highly as did the two taxi drivers that she arranged for us for transportation to and from the airport. She doesn’t suffer fools gladly. We were particularly worried about the 3:00 am pick-up. Would he actually arrive ? This was a needless concern. He was at the door on time. There is an old saying about “there being a good man or woman behind every successful man or woman”. In Isobel’s case i would say she has a very competent group of outside sources behind her.
