Waterfront vacation rentals in Matosinhos

Great flat fitted out very nicely, with amazing views of the river and sunset. Walking distance from the main sights. We stayed with 2 children (5 and 2) and the place worked perfectly for us.

This was a GREAT find and a 30 minute max walk to everywhere in Gaia and Porto! The apartment is on the top floor with SPECTACULAR views! Enough space in the bedrooms for our medium-sized luggage and in the modern, clean kitchen to cook and move around, plenty of table seating. The bathrooms were a little tight for multiple people, but hot water was strong and plentiful! Seating in the family room is limited, but we four adults fit quite comfortably in the condo. Paulo met us at the door and helped with bags, had great instructions and answered questions. After he left, we had trouble getting the air conditioning going, and he came right back and fixed it. He also arranged airport transportation! One thing--Gaia is VERY lively! The street noise was quite loud in 2 bedrooms every night until late. May not bother some, but I had windows closed, a LOUD white noise app running AND earplugs in to help with sleep. Overall, tho, a wonderful experience! Would highly recommend!

Incredible place to stay in Porto. Right in the heart of the historic neighborhood, with an amazing view

Great and spacious apartment, walking distance to downtown, large and with adequate parking.

Maria was a very kind and straightforward landlady. We loved the location by the sea and the many good tips when handing over the apartment. For various issues, she always found a quick solution. The small beauty defects in the apartment were communicated openly beforehand and did not bother us further.

Clear instructions for check-in, clean apartment that looked just like the photos, and an amazing view of the river! A lot of loud, lively activity on the riverfront which was something we expected but good for guests to be aware of. We had a great stay and hope to return soon!

great location and views. modern apartment and appliances.

The apartment is amazing. Take an Uber if you want to get around and don't want to take the bus or metro. Metro is 15 minutes for fast walkers. Regular taxis are very expensive in Porto. Porto is an extraordinarily beautiful city that has everything Nature, History, views, good food, going out and so much more. Leca de Palmeira is a nice place, you can eat and buy everything. The beach is beautiful. Repeatable

Thanks for Bruno He made us comfortable right away. Great places to visit the very quiet house. Thank you for everything

Magnificent site with views of the river. Great place for children to play with pool and secure play area. House accommodation is homely with comfortable beds. Very secure and accessible local amenities.

Among all the Airbnbs I have stayed at, this was by far the best. The hosts, Cris and her husband, were the most thoughtful and considerate people I have ever met through airbnb. They prepared everything for us with such care and kindness. Staying in a traditional Porto house was a special experience, and we ended up visiting almost every restaurant Cris recommended—they were all amazing and truly unforgettable. I’m so sad to be leaving… Thanks to them we had a wonderful trip

Clara’s is superhost so helpful and responsive . She waited for us to checkin and welcome us with freshly made fruit cake and some Port wine 🍷. I recommend to stay and I love the top floor patio over looking to Douro river and St Don Luis bridge enjoying the sunset.

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

A true slice of paradise! 🌿✨ From the first moment, we felt welcomed as if we were at home — but with the charm of a heavenly retreat. Diogo was an exemplary host: always available, attentive and genuinely concerned about our well-being. Your kindness made the experience even more special. The space is simply stunning, perfect for resting the mind and recharging the soul. And as if the surrounding nature and tranquility of the place were not enough, we had charming visitors: adorable kittens that appeared unexpectedly and immediately won our hearts. They were a sweet and caring asset, which gave even more life to our stay. We recommend it with our eyes closed - and with our hearts full.

A wonderful stay and so lovely to be this close to the beach. Definitely worth travelling into Porto as limited things to do near the stay. Nevertheless, Paula was such a brilliant host! ♥️

The location is really fantastic, although you can't go to sleep before midnight on weekends in fine weather. The hustle and bustle on the promenade sometimes goes on until the early hours of the morning.

This apartment could not be better located and is exquisitely decorated. Such a great value for the nightly rate. After a little help from our host with the washer/dryer, our stay was seamless. Thanks again and we look forward to our return!!

There were three of us women friends going to start the Camino Walk. It was the best experience. Philip let us check in early as we had a red eye from Toronto. Paula met us early and helped us check in. The condo is gorgeous. Perfect for us. So clean and do equipped. From the beautiful towels to the plates to the beach chairs. Everyone was wonderful. I couldn't recommend it more. ! Location location!

Pro's: - The view is phenomenal!! - The location is convenient and central (bus and metro stops nearby) - Large bedroom (also a beautiful view!) -Genug Platz - in the kitchen, everything you need is there (a second pot would be nice) -All was clean - There is an elevator (apartment is on the 7th floor) Cons: - The ventilation in the bathroom turns on automatically in the afternoon and does not turn off again until the next morning. It is very loud and looks dirty, and it also gives off an unpleasant smell when it runs. You should always have the bathroom door open for ventilation. No dishwasher - Large and noisy construction site around the corner Overall, I had a great stay and felt comfortable!

Second visit to this property. Would highly recommend . Close to all amenities 👍

Very nice apartment, as described and shown in photos. Antonio is very welcoming and accommodating the view from the apartment is just amazing Antonio's touches like coffee, dishwasher pods and laundry are a very nice addition. i recommend this listing

A magnificent apartment in the modern house, with super nice decor. Very stylishly decorated with Portuguese charm! Everything top and clean! Best location, 1 minute to beach, kiosk, bakery and several restaurants with cheap but great food, where even police officers go out for dinner during their break! To the train station 10 minutes, to Porto about 35 minutes. To Lidl also only about 10 minutes. "Quiet" location but in the middle of the locals, the fishermen provide the rest of the authentic flair! We will be back!

This apartment is spectacular!! It has the feel of a luxury San Francisco penthouse apartment. We could listen to the waves at night. Multiple restaurants are within a 2 block area! While It's not technically IN Porto, it's a very inexpensive Uber ride away...and we saw a lot of the city that way without having to walk! The platform bed setup as one solid bed was a bit challenging for an older couple, but overall, the apartment made it worth the challenge! We'd definitely stay there again!

The apartment is excellent and very well located, with restaurants and bakeries just around the corner. There's a supermarket and public transport right across the street, and you can easily walk to Gaia and Jardim do Morro. Marcos was very friendly and responsive, making communication smooth and easy. Highly recommend!
