Smoking friendly vacation rentals in Vila Nova de Gaia

The apartment is located in a residential neighborhood and is within 20-25 minutes walking distance to Praca da Ribeira if you don’t stop anywhere along the way (which is next to impossible). We liked the location as it was close to city center and other nice neighborhoods we got to explore. The apartment itself was great, it was spotless clean and had everything we needed for a short stay. The keys weee in a lockbox so checkin was a breeze and although we didn’t actually meet Andre, we communicated very well via the app. He provided some excellent recommendations for restaurants in the different neighborhoods and we tried a couple that ended up being great! Parking was another great feature, just around the corner from the apartment. It’s a narrow door to go through indeed but not an issue with a midsize car. The best feature of the apartment though was the opportunity to start your day on the balcony with a coffee in the sun! I would definitely recommend and stay here again!

This a true home away from home, and made our vacation just that much better! At day’s end, we looked forward to retreating to this spotless apartment that clearly has received love and care by its owner. From its art to its book collection, its spacious bedrooms and beautiful sunroom and terrace, the apartment wants for nothing. Paula is super responsive and exceptionally considerate — even providing personalized walking maps for us! I have stayed in Airbnbs all over the world, and this — by far — was my favorite. Was even better than the description — I didn’t know that was possible. Thank you, Paula, for a wonderful and memorable stay! Can’t wait to come back!

We loved our stay at João's apartment! The views from the balcony are simply amazing. The location is impeccable. This is without a doubt one of our top Airbnb experiences. We'll be happy to go back!

A beautiful apartment, the photos don't do it justice. Good facilities, Francisco was helpful and responsive. Perfect for our family group. The area is relaxed with a great beach easily walkable and brilliant seafood restaurants just around the corner.

Super thoughtful host. Fantastic location. Apartment kitted out with everything you could want and more.

I stayed at Miguel’s flat for 5 nights and it was fantastic. It is in a convenient location. Very quiet but also close to the historic centre (20 minute walk downhill). The amenities were excellent and if you want to eat in there is a supermarket less than 5 minutes away with everything provided. Miguel was super helpful as a host and gave us great recommendations for the local area as well as for Porto as a whole. Every room was spacious and the showering facilities were excellent. I would highly recommend staying here if you are going to Porto!

The accommodation is perfectly located 2 steps from a metro station, the center of Porto is also within walking distance with a little more patience There are very close and very convenient stores Everything is as in the photos, everything was very clean and it is great value for money given the location, very convenient and nicely decorated accommodation The only negative points we found would be that the water flow is quite low around noon, but not during the other hours of the day, and also that the kitchen lacked a few utensils (there is a frying pan and a saucepan) which ultimately did not bother us too much Air conditioning in the bedroom works well It's very nice to eat on the terrace, which is a real plus! Note that on arrival a small bottle of port was waiting for us, which was very pleasant, thank you! We would recommend it without hesitation to discover Porto

Very clean… great location

Jorge & Susana are brilliant hosts. they are always responsive and proactive in offering suggestions. the house was perfect for what we needed. Great restaurants in walking distance and a 20 minute Bolt ride into Porto. We would strongly recommend.

Joana's house was exactly what we needed 4 adult couples from the family each from a different part of the world The house is wonderfully equipped Designed in a rustic style, inviting and the garden is well maintained The property is exactly as you see in the pictures. It was well worth it!

Me, my husband and our kitty feel very welcome in the house. Rosa was very polite and friendly. The house is very spacious, ventilated and sunshine. There is a wooded area in the back, great for those who like nature. The weekly cleaning is excellent.

We love the stay. Cozy, comfortable, very clean house with all the necessary items to really feel at home. Daniel was extremely helpful, kind and accessible at all times. We will definitely stay again on our next visit to Porto.

cozy place in front of the beach and well connected with the city center.

House was clean and beautiful, our family really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Peaceful street with the convenience of both cafe and restaurants close by. We enjoyed ourselves and would recommend staying at Tiago’s home to anyone.

very helpful host. appreciate everything he did to help while my dad was in hospital.

We chose this place, for the price and proximity to the suburban train, to be able to go to the center of Porto without the car. Without the train strike, it would have been perfect, a 25 minute walk and we were there. As for hosts, communication is easy in English, they are kind and offers us things to see according to our needs. Thank you for everything.

Good people Very nice communication

all went well, thank you Adrianna!

This place was an intermission for us and it was perfect! The balcony was peaceful, the surrounding area was quiet compared to being in the heart of Porto which was nice. The bed was very comfortable and we could not be more thankful! Thank you. Walking distance from bus stop!

Rosario is a great host. The place is clean and well equipped. In addition, the location is great: very close to the beach and good restaurants. I only can recommend it. Will certainly return.

Great stay. The accommodation is clean, well-equipped With a pool that was much appreciated , swimming or napping at the foot of the pool You have breakfast with a magnificent view of the Douro River! Barbecue and bar with your feet in the water! All in a calm and unimposed location. What to spend great family time Thank you for your hospitality and kindness See you soon Christelle and Germain

The apartment is lovely and spacious. Has everything you need. The town is lovely, and the people in it are very friendly. The highlights were the Irish pub right next door and the blue hut on the beach which had amazing live music. The beach was very quiet and peaceful. This was a great deal!

Hello André, Thank you for everything. The apartment is very good, it has a very spacious terrace, although the views are not very good, you can only see four rolls. Very nice touch to leave all the apps and games installed on the TV, they were a great help! Another detail to note are the good local buns and desserts, very tasty. On the other hand, there was no good night or day atmosphere, who am I kidding (well, some Darth Vader out there). Another thing to improve is the modernization of the front door. Overall, chilling, chilling in the milling.

Amazing host and base to explore nearby Porto! Luiz was extremely helpful with tips regarding restaurants, sites, and nearby day trips. He went out of his way to make sure we were finding everything useful in the city and for anything we needed in the apartment he was a quick call away. The apartment was clean and in a great location and the building has great amenities including parking, pool, gym squash, pool etc. Would definitely recommend if traveling to Porto!
