Vacation rentals with a patio in Douro

We had a lovely stay at this apartment in Porto! It’s located in a very cute neighborhood—quietly charming with local character, yet still very accessible to everything you might need. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in and communication smooth and pleasant. One of the real highlights is the terrace, which made for a perfect spot to relax with a coffee or a glass of wine. The apartment is next to a road, so you may hear some traffic, but the windows and doors do a great job of blocking out most of the noise—we had no issues sleeping. The bathroom is clean and modern, with the toilet inside (which is always convenient). The kitchen really impressed us—extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need for cooking at home. All in all, a great experience and we’d definitely recommend this apartment to other travelers!

This place is beautiful! Right in the heart of the older part of town (where you want to be). It’s walkable to almost everything! And the hosts were incredibly helpful. I even called them at one point because I couldn’t find parking- and they guided me to safe affordable parking for the duration of our stay. Fantastic. One of the best places we stayed while in Portugal. The views were amazing. Exactly what we needed before we left Portugal. Thank you again!

Terrace place is an enchanting part of Gaia. You will immediately feel at home. The apartment is very clean and cosy. Restaurants, markets and vineries are close by. You can do a lot of things on foot but public transport is easy to reach, too, as are boats or the cable car. Communication with Terrace was very quick and efficient. The view over to Porto's Old Town from the sun deck was incredible. We definitely had a great time and will book again whenever we come to Porto.

We loved our stay in Porto! The apartment was beautiful, clean and comfortable, and their instructions were very easy to follow. Having a spot to park our car was also a great perk, especially since you can walk to everywhere from this spot easily. We highly recommend this spot if you’re in Porto!

We had such a wonderful stay at Maria and Ana’s apartment! The apartment actually felt a bit bigger than the pictures showed, and there was a lot of storage space for all our stuff. Maria and Ana have anticipated everything you need so you can just start enjoying Porto. We absolutely LOVED the terrace—perfect spot to have breakfast and relax (the chairs are SUPER comfy). Finally, Maria and Ana were incredibly responsive—we had a few questions and got responses within minutes each time. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great apartment. About 15 mins walk along to the main shopping street. Close to metro. We walked everywhere but there are transport alternatives if you wish Apartment well kitted out, clean and lovely roof top to relax in the sun at the end of the day. Supermarkets and cafes and bars ( including real ale ) near by! Locals v friendly and gave suggestions too. Great wee sot and we felt safe ! Thanks

Our stay at Jon’s home was wonderful for our first trip the Porto. He was very helpful from the moment I booked with clear instructions and even allowed us to have an early check in. The terrace was our favorite part, we spent a lot of time there enjoying the beautiful views. Highly recommend staying here and it’s close to everything, thank you Jon for hosting us

Had a wonderful stay here! Host was very informative and helpful!

Scenery was beautiful and breakfast delivery in the morning was amazing!

We've had an amazing 4 days here. It's just a perfect location and we felt at home here. The pool, the view, the garden with grill - everything was just perfect. The only 'negative' things, if you can call them negative, is that the bathroom is on a different floor than the bedrooms, and that the parking is a bit tight for a large car. We can fully recommend this place to anyone looking for a private getaway in a beautiful location.

Very peaceful setting with a beautiful view of the mountains.

Beautiful house in a sleepy village, perfect for chilling and as a base for exploring the region.

loved it! a piece of heaven(: very quite, the prettiest pool plus a waterfall

When we first saw Mario’s place and the fact it was a perfect five stars from all previous guests - it was difficult to believe. But we immediately upon arrival understood why this was a perfect 5 stars…this is an incredibly special property - from the streams, waterfalls, history as an olive press, trails, peacefulness - this place was absolutely one of a kind. All in our group agreed this place, of all the places we’ve stayed in the world, was truly truly special….if we could give more than 5 stars - we would. Mario and Cila were fantastic hosts and incredibly responsive and the amenities and nice touches throughout made us feel right at home - better than home. Such a wonderful stay.

We really enjoyed the house & the river. We enjoyed a bottle of wine & the local spirits. We took the train from Mosteiro to Pinhao which was beautiful & enjoyed a picnic in the hills above Loivos. Didn’t try the restaurants I’m afraid Rachel

WOW! Pictures don’t do this incredible place justice. So relaxing and peaceful. Pleased we hired a car to get out exploring but to warn less confident drivers, roads are extremely remote, steep and narrow. With 3 rentals on site, Helena upgraded us to a larger one, free of charge, due to a cancellation. Even when we were joined by another young couple we had our privacy. The space was pristine and homely and Helena & Luis (+3 friendly dogs) went out of their way to ensure we were well looked after, giving help, recommendations and advice. Honestly the best hosts by far! Used the rail system to visit Porto which was excellent value but take cash for payment on board, cards not accepted. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed and there were lots of lovely homely touches. Definitely one of the best Airbnb we have stayed in. Waking up to the incredible views was breathtaking and we enjoyed full use of the facilities, including the outdoor kitchen/bbq, pool and SUP boards.

Ricardo has been responsive since the original booking months ago. The apartment was very clean, beds were comfortable, apartment was quiet. He met us there to give the instructions in person and was quick to respond for any needs. This place is highly recommended!

If I come back to Porto, I will definitely find this place again. I was really comfortable during the 5 days I stayed, and I was happy like it was my own home. The host is friendly, the guidelines are clear, and the bedding is white and very clean. It was the cleanest of all the Airbnb accommodations I've been to, and the bathroom condition was the best. I want to recommend it to everyone to the point that I want to upload it to my blog. Oh, by the way, it was so nice that the host was Korean.👍🏻

Dear Ludo & Park It was really nice to spend my stay in Porto at your lovely airbnb. Thanks a lot for the hospitality and your help if needed. All the best Cami

We stayed for a full month and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed. The flat was exactly as pictured (if not better!) and spotless. It’s full of natural light, has high ceilings and is beautifully furnished with all the comforts of home. The hosts were incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and offered great tips to enhance our stay. The location gave us an authentic taste of Porto - lively at night and on weekends, with cafés and nightlife nearby. One small detail that really showed the hosts’ care: both sides of the bed had extension plugs, so we could charge multiple devices without unplugging lamps. All appliances worked perfectly, and the flat stayed fresh with the windows open. Truly a fantastic stay - we’re grateful to our hosts!

An amazing place to stay! The flat was lovely and clean, shower was nice and big and the bed was super comfy. Made the most of it being a ground floor flat by sunbathing just outside the little patio area and walking straight to the pool for a dip. Also a great location to walk into town for either the beach, shops or restaurants. Not too far to walk to the supermarket for food either. Adelina was always super quick to reply to messages, and was exceptionally friendly and helpful anytime we did message. Cannot recommend enough!!

The apartment was really nice and spacious with a big balcony where we enjoyed the sun. The kitchen was also well equipped with the essentials. Also a big plus was a private parking spot in the garage. Paula and her team were very responsive and helpful. We had a great stay!

Joao was a super great host, very helpful and very flexible on check in which he met us personally to give us a walk through of everything. Very responsive and the place was perfect with a little garden to have coffee in the morning. Great location and enough provisions for our short stay. Highly recommend!

Excellent location and comfortable apartment - we stayed 3 nights, and it is within walking distance of many sights and restaurants, but remarkably quiet given where it is. A small balcony overlooks an interior courtyard. There is a coffee machine/electric kettle for tea, and a laundromat around the corner. Highly recommend.
