One of our best stays ever!
We travel about 6 months out of the year, always staying in short term rentals. Hugo's place was a delight in every way and among our all time favorites. Hugo met us at the entrance and took us on a complete tour of the apartment. Everything was just like the pictures and there was nothing he hadn't thought of -- laundry and dishwasher pods, plenty of paper towels, etc. He also sent us an extensive PDF of restauants, shopping etc in the area, which was very helpful during our stay.The apartment was spotlessly clean and well supplied with adequate cooking utensils etc. There is a parking garage under the building with a designated stall -- very convenient if you come with a rental car. Ericeira is a delightful beachside town with many good restaurants, nearby grocery stores, etc. It's a fairly short drive from/to Lisbon.We hope to come back later in the year and spend a longer time.The ocean view from the living room was spectacua

Lovely apartment with view
Lovely spacious apartment with balcony views over the sea. Great location away from busy Porto but near enough to do the sites. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance along the beautiful coastline. Recommend Cremosi for ice cream, cake & crepes after watching the sunset on the beach! Excellent helpful host. Highly recommended

Great accommodation with a wonderful sunset view !!
Lovely place, lovely quiet area, and a very helpful host. Great place to stay if you want a mix of beach time but also quick and easy access to the city to explore what Porto has to offer. Such a beautiful city. Really loved the seafood in the Afurada area of Vila Nova de Gaia too :)

Everything hoped for and more!
When you book to stay somewhere you hope that it will be what you expect when you arrive. To say that this apartment exceeded our expectations would be an understatement and for that we will always be grateful. The layout, the view and the quality of the furnishings were all excellent. However, what topped it off was being met by the owner (Hugo) and made to feel so welcome. It was also good to have a face to a name and that he, obviously, cared about who was going to stay in his property. All of the above, along with the location, made this a very special and enjoyable holiday. We look forward to returning soon! Thank you, Hugo!

Holiday with my daughter in Porto
We spent 5 nights in Porto for a holiday. The Gaia area is definitely a great location to stay with not only the beach, amazing sunsets but also lots and lots of great restaurants. We went into Porto Centro for a day and were so glad to have picked the beach side area as it was very relaxing. The board walk along the water front was fantastic for daytime and evening strolls. Really recommend a holiday to Portugal and so happy we stayed where we did.

Fantastic apartment, fantastic views.
A fabulous apartment, spacious and well equipped with a stunning view. We stayed in the apartment In the October half term holiday. Porto is a great location for a city break although this apartment provided the best of both worlds as we also enjoyed the beach as well as the city. The days action packed with sightseeing and the evening walking along the seafront watching the sun go down. The location of the apartment is perfect and the process made all the easier by the communication with Hugo in advance of the trip and Isabel during our stay. The only downside was that we had to come home!

A hidden gem in Vila de Gaia – Porto
We, a family, stayed in this comfortable apartment for 10 nights over New Year. It was our first visit to Porto and we couldn't have been happier with our choice of lodging. The apartment is gorgeously decorated and it feels like a home from home. The pictures looked great but in person, wow! The apartment is spectacular, super clean, modern and fancy. We really enjoyed out stay, linen, towels, kitchen stuff, all was provided. The apartment location is very good, near by the beach and a short walk to restaurants and some local market in a laid back area. Even though we didn't cook like we thought we might do once or twice, it was great to have a clean, modern kitchen area for making breakfast and dinners. We appreciated the quietness in the building as well. We enjoyed our stay very much and would be happy to come back. Regarding the owner, Hugo was fast acting answering all our doubts in a timely manner. But the best of all was be supported by his mother Mrs Isabel, a dedicated support person and also very kind. Highly recommend it and Mrs Isabel was a great help with recommending restaurants etc too. Our best recommendations! We will most surely return. Dante, Monica, Julia and Gabriela
