Vacation rentals with beach access in Vila Nova de Gaia

Filipe was very friendly and always responsive whenever I texted him. He regularly contacted us in every other day to see if there was anything he could help us with. The check-in and check-out process was very flexible. If I visit Porto again, I will definitely reach out to him.

We had a lovely time in Porto. It’s a great little apartment and a good location. Easy access to the beach and lots of restaurants nearby. The metro station is only a five minute walk away as well. Good choice.

Very cozy apartment, I loved Filipa's taste, she is very kind and I was attentive at all times I love the clean smell and the white and ironed sheets. The site is in a perfect area, quiet , almost on foot to the beach . Although the weather has not accompanied much , we have been very comfortable. Thank you Filipa

Very well located, clean and spacious apartment. Carlos is very welcoming and punctual I recommend

Super clean, it smelled so good! Amazing location, Sergio is kind, espacious apartment, strongly recommend!!

Great stay, location was perfect for what we wanted. 1.5 hour walk along the river to Porto. Bus and Tram also easily accessible. Views to the sea and only a 3 minute stroll to the beach.

We had a wonderful stay at the apartment. António is a responsive and welcoming host, always available when needed. The apartment is well-equipped—sharp knives, plenty of dishes, both capsule and filter coffee machines. The bedrooms have good mattresses and pillows, the living room is spacious, with great view, and the design is excellent. With three bathrooms, everything was convenient. The location is fantastic—just a two-minute walk to the beach, surrounded by great restaurants, and only 30 minutes by metro to the center of Porto. The apartment was spotless. Everything was perfect, and we would love to return. Thank you so much, Antonio!

This is an amazing flat, would 100% recommend. It is away from the busy parts of the town but super easy to commute and literally 2mins from the beach. Peaceful, beautiful, convenient. And Ariana is very helpful and lovely person, if I ever come back to Porto I will stay here again for sure:)

An ideal place, a nice house with space, to have a holiday with a family with larger children: something for everyone! By train you are easily in lively Porto, always a Bolt driver nearby to take you to nice places such as the beach on the Douro (Arnelas) or the somewhat more adventurous places like the Arouca Bridge, as well as enjoy beautiful sunsets, delicious coffees and waves brave just 1 dune away. Antonio received us very well and always responded very quickly

Small house tastefully arranged, and fully equipped. A little something from the host is waiting for you in the kitchen. Its location is ideal for access between the beach, the old town, the surfing and fishing spot of Matosinhos. The neighborhood is quiet but everything is there, supermarket, bars, tearooms, restaurants... There is nothing missing for a great stay. Small downside however due to the humidity and its small smell in the downstairs room, other than that everything is great. We will gladly come back hoping to have better weather and be able to enjoy the small private terrace more fully.

Thanks to Tatiana for hosting us, very good communication before and during the stay! Charming house, very well-equipped and in a good location. Close to bus line 507 to Porto or 15 minutes from the metro (tram). I recommend this place!

We were very well received. José is attentive and responds very quickly. The place was clean and spacious for 11 people 🙂

We had a lovely stay at Joshua's house. The house is functional. We enjoyed the outdoors and the kids were happy to have animals in the yard. Joshua's parents, whom we meet every day, were very nice and discreet. A big thank you for our stay, as well as for the little pony ride!

The accommodation is very conveniently located to reach all the family sites if you go by car, close to the beach, very quiet area. Pedro is quick to respond and resolves any issues very quickly and effectively. We felt very comfortable.

Fantastic host, would definitely recommend

We had a great time. The accommodation is in a great location. We recommend it.

I had a pleasant experience staying here. I had problems because my checkin dates got messed up due to flight cancellation. But the host was very accommodative at all times. Even when I feel unwell and had to leave early. I met Maria’s husband, Oscar at checkin. He explained everything in detail. The house is well equipped and is plenty for 2 people. The beach is just a few steps away. And a huge supermarket within 500m

Lovely apartment, spacious and well equipped. The river views from the balcony and all the main rooms were stunning. Luis was really helpful with lots of suggestions about eating places and sightseeing. We would definitely stay here again.

Jon and Friederieke were wonderful hosts. They responded in a timely manner and were super helpful. The chocolates on our bed the complimentary drinks was a nice touch for us wear travellers. The apartment was well situated with easy access to the beach, pastry and coffee shops as well as a grocery store. It was a wonderful way to start our vacation. Thank you so much for a spacious and relaxing space. Warmly, Abby & Peter

Fantastic location for exploring Porto and Gaia . Lovely view from apartment . Responsive hosts . Beautiful city !

Comfortable apartment with all the basics plus a washer and dryer—much needed after 10 days of travel! Short walk to beach and metro stop. Lidl and Continente close by as well as many small markets. We enjoyed exploring Matosinhos and trying local restaurants and pastelarias. Some great little museums too. Fernando was a kind and patient host who made us feel very welcome. We highly recommend this AirBnb stay.

Beautiful, massive unit with tonnes of amazing natural light and ocean views. Very comfortable bed and living areas which were perfect for relaxing after a long day. Big kitchen with everything you could need for a meal any size. Ample parking for your vehicle right outside the entrance door. While Gaia and this location in particular is not “Porto” we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if we were visiting. The drive from here to the porto old town and city centre can be done in under 15 minutes snd it’s very easy to come and go. This location feels so much less stressful than the busy, tough to navigate streets of Porto. Tonnes of restaurants and a grocery story within a walk or drive, great ocean walk right out front of the door.

We have never experienced such a well-maintained, clean and well-equipped apartment. It corresponds 100% to the photos. There is a large underground parking lot. The landlord Manuel took care of things proactively and asked several times if everything was okay. The location is right on the main beach of Esmoriz, separated only by the waterfront road. However, it should be noted that at the end of August, a fair takes place right in front of the house with corresponding volume in the afternoon and evening.

This place was perfect for our stay. We had a tough time finding this place, roads are very different from where we live. Andrea was great, she met us hopped in the car with us and directed to the place. Wish we had more time to explore the area. Beautiful location, near the water with lots to do. We took the 20 minute bus ride to downtown Porto however opted to take a Bolt back. Highly recommend you to stay at Andrea’s and Ricardo’s place when visiting Porto!
