Located only a few minutes from the Clérigos Tower, On The Lookout's rooftop terrace offers a rival view to the Cathedral and downtown architecture. The insides of this home are equally impressive, with a welcoming communal area all dressed in wood. The rustic touches are added in the form of forest animal prints, which adds to the warm ambiance in every room. The terrace is only accessible via the upstairs bedroom, but if that's not too much of an inconvenience, then you're cordially invited to experience the view (and the comfort) for yourself.

Relax on your private, spacious balcony with a glass of Port when you stay at this stylish home in Porto. We love the garden views from here. Inside, lots of glazing allows light to flood in. The chic living space has warm wooden floors and mid-century style furniture. Rustle up a Porto staple, the substantial francesinha sandwich in the modern kitchen. Or there are plenty of restaurants and cafes on your doorstep if you don't fancy cooking. 

There are many attractions nearby too. Head to Livraria Lello, one of the world's most beautiful bookstores, under a fifteen-minute stroll away. Porto Cathedral and Bolhão Market are both a twenty-five-minute walk. Or, lovers of sculpture can visit the Soares dos Reis National Museum, eight minutes on foot.


White Camellias

From its enviable position in the centre of Porto, this stylish yet functional apartment is an excellent choice for families and groups of friends alike. The open-plan living space is perfectly proportioned, with enough room for entertaining your loved ones or enjoying a quiet moment with a cup of coffee. We had a particular soft spot for the individually designed bedrooms and we loved the kitchen’s handy serving hatch.

When you’re ready to explore your surroundings. Begin with a trip to Porto Cathedral, just a short walk from your building. Or why not head down to the water? Amble alongside the Duoro River with an ice cream in hand before watching the world pass by in a charming cafe. In the early evening, we recommend watching the sunset from the nearby Miradouro da Rua das Aldas viewpoint.

Ribeira is one of Porto’s most charming and typical neighbourhoods, and this apartment blends right in. Steps from the apartment is the riverfront, where Porto’s famous wine cellars line the banks, and walking the narrow streets of the neighbourhood you’ll find delights like Palacio Bolta three minutes away, and Mercado Ferreira Borges five minutes on foot. The first thing you’ll notice, stepping into the apartment, is the view directly over the Douro River from the wall of big windows in the living room. Wooden shutters add a touch of tradition, and the darkwood dressers and artfully faded Moroccan rugs are in keeping with the building’s history. Hardwood floors lead from the living room, to the compact kitchen in an alcove and through to the bright bedroom where the exposed stone and big sash window motif continues.

River Port

Rooftop Terrace

Located only a few minutes away from Bolhão Market, Sunglasses is surrounded by cosy cafes, art galleries, and shops. This is a bright home with a pleasant atmosphere and plenty of spots to hang out and relax. The design is heavily focused on functionality rather than aesthetics, but the simplicity works well with the open layout. From here, you'll have easy access to the central sights and the walk down to the riverside is filled with great bars and restaurants where you can refuel.

If you want your city break to have a side of relaxation and luxury, this is the holiday home for you. This gorgeous duplex sits in a lovely spot close to the River Douro, offering beautiful views across the water. As soon as you arrive, you’ll be drawn out to the balcony, where – if you’re anything like us – you’ll tuck into breakfast each day, and round things off by watching the sunset with a glass of wine. It’s an idyllic spot. 

Inside, the apartment is just as striking. Exposed stone walls and dark wood furniture combine with floor-to-ceiling windows to stunning effect, and everything you need is close to hand. Cook local dishes in the kitchen and dine in together, opening up the balcony doors to merge the indoor and outdoor spaces for cocktail hour. 

When you want to see more of Porto, you’ll find that you’re within easy walking distance of all of the major sights and attractions. You’ll never want to leave this classy and convenient home. 


River View Rest

Found in one of the oldest residential buildings in Porto, this apartment might not look 200 years old thanks to modernisation, but it remains historic. Now updated to house families itching to explore this UNESCO World Heritage City, it's comfortable – though the two bedrooms with the sloped ceilings might be better for kids – and bright with a fantastic location. Walk to Porto Cathedral and other landmarks in minutes, buy fresh produce from the Bolhão market only a short stroll away, and hop on the trams to find points of interest further afield.

Welcome Hamper

Some holiday homes are all about the location, others boast unique designs, while some have quirky perks that make you want to move in – this renovated studio apartment in the heart of the Old Town has it all. Consider neutral tones of olive green and dark brown for the interior that set the tone for artisanal furnishings and light wood surfaces. From the animal print rug to the sculpture in plaster, this home is a picture of pared-back beauty. Bathed in natural light streaming in through balcony doors, you’ll find the living room an ideal spot for unwinding with a good book or playing games. The sleek marble kitchen comes with appliances that will make cooking a delight – complete with a balcony to enjoy your morning espresso and pastel de nata tart on while you watch the world go by in this historic part of town. 

When you’re in the mood for exploring, you couldn’t be better placed with the trendy Ribeira quarter on your doorstep, brimming with authentic restaurants, hip bars and enchanting wine cellars. Culture seekers will love the São Francisco Church domes and Old Town markets nearby. Walk across the Luis I Bridge, one that provides a panoramic perspective of both banks of the river, allowing you to see exquisite details of the city that you would miss from the ground. Whatever you plan to see, pencil in a moment for simply sitting back and relishing in the beautifully crafted sanctuary of your own home.


Pottering About

Paid Parking

Located just a two-minute stroll from Rua das Flores and a seven-minute walk from Porto Cathedral, this apartment is perfect for sightseeing. If you want to explore the rest of the city, São Bento train station is five minutes on foot. Just remember to bring you're walking shoes, as this home is on a bit of a hill and the apartment is on the first floor, with no lift (there are two flights of stairs to reach the door). But you are rewarded with views of the city's cathedral once you've arrived – take in the vistas from the private balcony. Inside, we love the vaulted ceilings, which add character to this modern home.

Porto Haven

Patio / Terrace

This home is located on the Rua Galeria de Paris, a street famous for its nightlife and lively spirit. It's a simple yet elegant apartment, with clean lines, crisp white walls and modern furniture. But the best feature, we're sure you'll agree, has to be the roof terrace. You could spend hours up here, from your morning coffee to a final sundowner, looking out over the historic buildings of Porto's old town. 

You're well-positioned to visit many of the top sights in the city, with Clérigos Tower and Aliados Avenue a five-minute walk away, and the Livraria Lello Bookstore just around the corner – rumour has it this literary wonderland inspired the Hogwarts library. Your host can even organise food tours on request, showing you the very best of the city's gastronomic scene. And, when night falls, you only need to step outside to find yourself right in the epicentre of Porto's fabulous nightlife. 

Right in the Heart

Location doesn’t get much better than this in Porto – on a charming shopping street just a couple of streets away from Sao Bento train station. It’s the ideal position to explore the city on foot, with the ancient azulejo-tiled churches and baroque towers punctuating orange-roofed buildings. On your doorstep, you’ve got family-run restaurants, charming coffee shops and bakeries serving oven-fresh custard tarts. Plus, the famous wine warehouses that line the Douro at Ribeira are just a short stroll away.

This studio apartment is a stylish spot to return to after a day exploring downtown Porto. Modern, monochrome artworks sit against striking bottle-green walls, but the first thing that caught our attention was the wall of stone-framed windows, looking out over the tiled buildings of your typical Porto street. Throwing these open, you can listen to the chatter from the street waking up in the morning while dozing in the comfy bed before settling in at plush velvet chairs for a classic breakfast of custard tarts and coffee.

We had to break from doing some serious shopping to tell you about this Porto gem. This elegant apartment, housed in a recently renovated 20th-century building, is located right in the heart of the pedestrianised retail hub of Rua Santa Catarina. For fresh produce and a vibrant atmosphere, head to Mercado do Bolhão, a three-minute walk away. It's not all about shopping, though – the Chapel of Souls is a two-minute walk away, where you'll discover its beautiful azulejo tiled façade. Or take a break in the Café Majestic, a beautiful Art Nouveau café, a five-minute walk from this home. A little further, Porto Cathedral is fourteen minutes on foot. Then stop off at the small port wine shop opposite this home and take some back to this apartment.

Inside, there are furnishings from Portuguese designers and artists. Lots of large windows allow light to flood in. We adore the spacious open plan living space with its two French doors, which open onto a small balustraded balcony overlooking the street. Off the bedroom, there's a secluded terrace too, perfect for a coffee or glass of Port. Later, chill out on the mezzanine level or have a game of chess. There's plenty of room for a family or friends to spread out here. If you prefer to eat in, whip up a bacalhau à Gomes (cod casserole) in the modern kitchen and enjoy it at your dining table. Honestly, though, you probably won't be spending that much time indoors with so much on your doorstep.



Blue Sails

Balcony / Patio

Situated in the heart of Downtown Porto, this apartment places you within easy walking distance of the city's top highlights. Visit the Church of Saint Ildefonso, sample local produce at the Mercado do Bolhão, or head to the Douro River for a boat trip. Inside, it's a smart, functional space for your group to spread out, and there's a sofa bed for a fifth guest. The kitchen is compact yet fully equipped for home-cooked dinners, while the enclosed balcony is a nice place to toast the day's end. Just note that you'll need to climb stairs to reach the entrance of this home. 

Porto Spice

EV Charger

Make yourself at home in this light-filled apartment, located in Porto's lively centre. Perfect for large groups of friends or family, the spacious pad has been tastefully decorated with your comfort and enjoyment in mind. Whether you're kicking back on one of the vast L-shaped sofas or cooking up a storm in the bright kitchen-diner, you'll be surrounded by high-quality furnishings and thoughtful touches.

We're particularly fond of the parquet floors throughout, as well as the views over traditional Portuguese streets. When you're ready to get out and explore, you'll find plenty of worthwhile sights within short walking distance. Bibliophiles, we guarantee you'll fall in love with Livraria Lello, widely considered one of the world's most beautiful bookshops and just fifteen minutes away. From here, wind your way down to the River Duoro and grab a vino verde in Cais da Ribeira.

Cork & Timber

Set on the elegant Rua das Flores, this gorgeous two-bedroom flat offers you the perfect base to explore central Porto. Located up on the fourth floor, you'll enjoy breathtaking vistas over the neighbourhood rooftops towards Porto's Romanesque cathedral.

Inside, the main open-plan living space offers more than enough space for four to unwind, dine and socialise in comfort. A large corner sofa is set right by the French doors. On warm days, you can open them up to the outside world and let the city atmosphere float in on the breeze. Elsewhere, there's a four-seater dining table and a well-equipped kitchenette.

Both bedrooms are decorated in similarly neutral tones, with ample storage so you can unpack your bags and settle right in. The main bedroom elevates its offering with an en-suite shower room and Juliette balcony that lets in plenty of natural light.

Down at street level, the pedestrianised Rua das Flores is lined with traditional restaurants and independent shops that occupy the ground floor of historic buildings adorned with azulejo tiles and ornate wrought-iron balconies. Not only does it place you right in the heart of action, but you're also close to some of Porto's most majestic sights, including Sé do Porto and the Palácio da Bolsa – both no more than a five-minute walk – and the waterside Cais da Ribeira, a ten-minute stroll away.


Empire of the Sun

Garden

To find a home this pretty and right in the beating heart of Porto, well, that’s special. But to bag a place with an all-too-rare outdoor terrace too? Then you’re onto a winner.

Inside, while this apartment is studio living, we think it’s expertly formed and feels surprisingly spacious. The designers knew what they were doing here, with earthy textures, warm wooden hues, and pops of botanical greens fusing beautifully.

Over in the made-for-action kitchen, there’s everything you could need to rustle up a bite to eat. And don’t get us started on the bedroom area with charming views over the terrace to the lofty palm trees and blue skies beyond.

Sunny mornings call for breakfast and freshly brewed coffees on the veranda as you hatch plans for the day ahead. And you won’t have far to go when it’s time to get out and about. 

Lose yourself in the city’s alley-woven historic heart brimming with boutiques, including the neo-Gothic, Livraria Lello (twelve minutes on foot) – the bookshop was a source of inspiration for the Harry Potter books, we hear. Grab a sunny spot for a bite to eat at one of the many Petiscarias (that’s Portuguese-style tapas bars to us). Then enjoy a post-lunch hazy walk along the banks of the Douro River (nineteen minutes on foot). Or hop on the Trindade metro station (a four-minute walk away) to discover further-flung corners of this opulent city.  

Super Naturals

Cafetiere

This home nearly feels like staying on a boat – what with the large French doors opening directly onto the Douro River. Whether you’re sat on the sofa or enjoying a coffee at the dining table, you’ll have sweeping views of the water and the city. The windows’ second benefit is the sheer amount of light the living space gets, bathing the tasteful furniture in the warm sun. We could spend hours with a book in the armchair, taking in the sea air as the day grows to a peak. But of course, this central location leaves much to be explored. You can wander along the riverfront’s picturesque fishing neighbourhoods, hopping on the 1930s tram that runs to Foz. Or, board on a boat that will take you to the famous terraced Douro vineyards to sample Vinho Verde and Port. You’ll be walking distance from beautiful historic buildings, located in one of the quietest streets of Ribeira, and only a thirteen-minute walk from São Bento Railway Station – which will connect you all over the city.  

Light Port

Located on one of Porto’s liveliest streets, this studio apartment is very close to the iconic Ribeira which can be reached on foot within seven minutes. A picturesque part of the city, in the heart of the old town, Ribeira is a riverside spot overlooking the Douro River where you can visit Praça da Ribeira square which is lined with colourful 18th-century townhouses, and visit Bolsa Palace, a neoclassical landmark with ornate interiors which is a short three-minute walk from your door. At dinner time, weave your way through the cobbled streets of Ribeira where you will find plenty of small bars and eateries – to taste classic Portuguese fare such as grilled sardines.

This home is also perfectly situated to explore everything else that Porto has to offer. Porto Cathedral can be reached within five minutes by foot where you can enjoy the sunlight shining in through the stained glass rose window as you explore one of the city’s oldest Romanesque monuments. Clérgios Tower is just a seven-minute walk away, while a chance to admire the blue-tiled exterior of The Church of Souls – painted with scenes of saints – is just a ten-minute walk from your door.

Go shopping at Livraria Lello, often regarded as one of the most beautiful bookshops in the world – just an eight-minute walk away. Or, experience what Porto is best known for – its port wine production – at a wine tasting room just two minutes away from this home on foot. Whatever you’re looking for in Porto, this home is on the doorstep of sights and city exploration.

Down the Ribeira

Located right next to Jardim das Virtudes and near the iconic Clérigos Tower, this stylish studio apartment gives guests the convenience of being able to walk out to see Porto's attractions with ease. The perfect base from which to explore the city, the space features a small balcony with enough room to sit and enjoy a drink in the sunshine. Inside, ample sunlight flows through the studio during the day, and the cosy set-up and aesthetics of the living area allow for chilled-out evenings at home. While the draw of this place is having the choice, it's quite likely you'll want to discover the nearby local eateries and wine cellars when staying here. 


The Portent

Sitting just a short walk from Alfândega and the Douro River, this duplex apartment is a convenient base for a group of friends or family. You’ll need to climb some stairs to reach this second-floor apartment, so keep that in mind. The third bedroom lacks some privacy, though the sliding doors allow you to partition it off from the living area. And while the dining room doesn’t accommodate all six guests, you'll find plenty of casual eateries, bars and cafes on your doorstep. Location-wise, Porto’s iconic sights, including Bolsa Palace, the Miradouro da Vitória and Mosteiro de São Bento da Vitória are within easy reach.

Porto Dreamin'

A haven of calm in Portugal's bustling riverside city, this chic one-bed apartment will set you up for a memorable stay. The recently-refurbished interiors are strikingly stylish, from the punchy tiled bathroom to the moulded walls and ceiling. The recurrent use of teal infuses the home with a sense of serenity.

Sliding glass doors lead to the elegant sleeping space, a colourful yet restful enclave that could easily be mistaken for a boutique hotel room. Doze away from bustling street noise, then start the morning with a coffee and pastel de nata at the bright dining table. The kitchen is fully-equipped if you fancy a proper breakfast to fuel you for the day ahead.

The historic Sé Cathedral is just ten minutes away, an impressive demonstration of Romanesque architecture. From here, you're within easy reach of the widely-photographed São Bento station – its hand-painted tiling makes it one of the most beautiful railway stations in the world. Come evening, walk the five minutes from your apartment to Cais da Ribeira, a busy piazza with plentiful restaurants and bars to sample this city's world-famous port at. 

Teal Tranquility

Pack your bags and head to lovely Porto for a stay at this sleek apartment, right in the town centre. Perfect for little families, couples or business travellers, you'll have a great time immersing yourself in this vibrant city. 

The open-plan living space has a calming ambiance with crisp white walls, natural wood floors, and soothing blue tones – you'll settle in here in no time at all. The bedroom is equally calming and guarantees you a good night's sleep after a day of adventures. But the best part of all has to be the large terrace – slide open the doors and head outside to sip your morning coffee in the sunshine, or enjoy a nightcap in the balmy evening breeze. 

From here, you can easily access the city's best-loved sights. Wander through the cobbled streets and visit port cellars, artisanal boutiques, and local restaurants to get a true taste of Porto life. You can walk down to the river, with its impressive bridges in under twenty minutes, stopping off at some of the city's beautiful churches on the way. And, with Livraria Lello just a twelve-minute walk away, you can be first in line to visit the iconic bookshop. 

Sunshine on the Terrace

With an address on an iconic street, this home is within walking distance of many of Porto’s top attractions. We’re talking about Mercado do Bolhão (five-minutes on foot) and the majestic Clérigos Tower, an eight minute walk away. If you love books, then we’d recommend a browse around Livraria Lello, said to be one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world – it’s well worth the eleven-minute stroll.

Back at this home, take in the views over the city from your private balcony with a glass of rich Port or a cup of coffee. Alternatively, relax on the green mid-century style sofa, next to the potted palm in the light-filled open plan living space. We love that the bedroom opens out onto the balcony too – perfect for breakfast in the morning.


A Strawberry Moon

Combining original elements with modern upside-down living, this apartment is an ideal base for those couples or families of three looking to experience the enchanting heart of the city. Boasting a long, double-height living area with a wonderfully bright and open layout, you'll find it easy to come back and relax after days of sightseeing in Porto. 

We love the enticing space with oak floors, wood beams, and exposed stone walls which make the design feel reassuringly rustic, and yet the contemporary decor adds plenty of modern comforts. The sociable open-plan layout invites chefs of the group to whip up feasts in the kitchen while chatting with others around the dining table or unwinding on the sofa. 

When you’re ready to venture out for some sightseeing, make a beeline for the Church of Saint Ildefonso or the Livraria Lello bookshop nearby, before sauntering a little further on to the Porto Cathedral and the bustling city centre. With countless bars, restaurants and shops along the riverfront, head to the Cais da Ribeira as evening draws in and you’ll get a true taste of the city here. 

Stepping Stones

Netflix

Streaming Services

With its double-height beamed ceilings, wood floors, cool contemporary furnishings and large windows, this beautiful apartment right across from Porto’s scenic Praça da República is a treat for those looking for a sunny, serene stay. 

We love the casual grandeur of the open-plan living area with its tall rustic ceiling, as well as the glass doors that slide open to reveal a large balcony equipped with a table and chairs. Start your days off here over fresh pastéis de nata and coffee while taking in the wide-sweeping views over the city’s rooftops or gather here at sundown to watch the sky turn shades of amber and pink.

The sleek kitchen is all set to whip up homemade feasts to be enjoyed at the dining table, while the two bedrooms – one of which is cocooned beneath the eaves – offer a wonderfully peaceful night’s sleep. 

When you’re not spending time in your stylish pad, go out and explore the sights.  You’re a ten-minute walk from the beautiful Igreja do Carmo, a twenty-minute stroll from Porto Cathedral, while bustling Cais da Ribeira – right on the Douro River – is thirty minutes away on foot.

Sunshine Supernova

Porto is a city perhaps best known for the fortified wine that borrows its name, so it only feels appropriate that this large apartment in the downtown area of the city feels like it has been designed for gathering people together. 

The space revolves around an open kitchen-dining area that looks like the trendiest restaurant in town. Here, guests can get stuck in and whip up tasty dishes, or alternatively watch the action from a seat at the large island. If you’d prefer to leave the cooking to the professionals, there's the option of hiring a private chef at this address who can take care of mealtimes. Once dinner is piping hot and ready to serve, there's a huge dining table to seat the whole party and spend long evenings around. 

If you ever fancy a breath of fresh air at any point, there's a balcony with a pleasant view of the street below. Outside, Bolhão market is only a five-minute walk away when you want to pick up some fresh, local ingredients, while Bolsa Palace can be reached in just over fifteen if you're in the mood for some culture. Finish the day with some sunset watching at the Vitória viewpoint, an eighteen-minute stroll from your doorstep. 

It's All in the Ingredients

Prepare to be dazzled by this top-floor apartment perched right in the heart of Porto's old quarter. This place offers up astonishing views of the historic Baixa district - and an impressive outdoor terrace to soak it all up.

Lose yourself to the views of the quarter's ancient squires, rising up from a higgledy-piggledy maze of terracotta rooftops. And if you're impressed with it now, just think how amazing it looks at night as Porto's lights flicker on.

If you can bear to part your gaze from the terrace, you'll discover this home delivers the goods on the inside too. Spread out over two floors and glowing from top-to-toe in crisp white, midcentury-inspired furniture and statement lighting is all that's needed to add warmth and style here. 

Climb the stairs to discover three pristine and light-filled bedrooms – and thanks to its top-floor setting and room-darkening shutters, you'll be sure to bank a peaceful night's sleep here.

Away from this luxurious apartment, you'll find all of Porto's hotspots close by, including Bolhão Market, Santa Catarina Street, and Aliados Avenue with a mere seven-minute stroll. Or jump on the metro just three minutes from your door to discover other corners of the city. Now, how's that for a location?

The View From Here

Situated in the charming Ribeiro neighbourhood, a three-minute walk from the neoclassical Palácio da Bolsa and within touching distance of old-school restaurants serving traditional Portuguese fare, this modern and bright apartment is a great base for exploring all that Porto has to offer.

We loved the light-filled living space, with its huge floor-to-ceiling windows and double-height ceilings. A dining table takes centre stage, encouraging lively breakfasts in the morning and hearty suppers in the evening. There’s also a cosy mezzanine level that is the perfect spot for reclining with a glass of wine before retreating to sumptuous bedrooms for an early night. 

Slip into the narrow cobbled streets and begin your sightseeing adventure. The 12th-century Porto Cathedral is six minutes from your doorstep and the Igreja dos Clérigos with its 75-metre-tall bell tower is reached in less than ten. When it’s time to call it a day, make a beeline for the Vitória viewpoint to watch dusk fall across the city.

Pools of Light

Located in Porto's iconic Rua das Flores – known for its cultural landmarks, shopping and restaurants – you're right in the heart of the city at this stylish apartment. With three bedrooms, a bright dining area and a Juliet balcony, it's perfect for family trips and friendly get-togethers. 

On the ground floor, you'll find an impressive open-plan living space, combining natural materials, modern furnishings and a side of industrial design to create a relaxing home. Abundant light floods in throughout the day, thanks to the large patio doors, while the green-coloured velvet sofa and wooden dining table make for a calm and comfortable space to unwind, eat and drink together. There's a sleek kitchenette that allows you to cook for your guests while keeping up with the conversation. Grab a glass of wine and perch against the balcony, admiring the rooftop views and spotting the city sights all around.

With beautiful Jardim de João Chagas and the striking Sé do Porto nearby, plenty of trendy eateries and lively wine bars right on your doorstep, and the Cais da Ribeira waterfront only an eight-minute stroll away, if your number one priority is a vibrant location, then look no further.

Spread across five buildings with a tranquil shared inner garden at it's heart, each apartment fuses bespoke-made furniture and luxurious finishes alongside rustic detailing and ceramics that the Portuguese do so well. And don't get us started on the distinctive scalloped-edge exteriors – what an architectural triumph.

Inside, there are all the creature comforts to get settled in right away. Rustle up early evening drinks and nibbles in the smart kitchen space and pad outside onto your private balcony – the views of Porto's ornate balconies and rooftops beyond are every bit like you imagined. Or beat the heat and crash out inside with a movie – there's a smart TV at the ready.

When it's time to soak up Porto's rich culture, make a beeline for the iconic Mercado do Bolhão and the signature blue and white tiles of the 18th-century Chapel of Souls – both just a six-minute walk away. Mosey over to the stylish Santa Catarina Boulevard (five minutes on foot) with its trim boutiques, striped stone footpaths, and buzzy cafes for obligatory pastel de natas and people-watching.

Casa Estilo

Single-Level Home

You'll be able to see the shimmering water from your balcony right on the banks of the Douro River. Just along the quayside, you’ll find Porto’s fabulous wine museum, dedicated to the eponymous drink this city is famous for. Perhaps pick up a bottle or two and take them back to enjoy while you look out from the balcony. In the open kitchen and living room, a glass screen conveniently separates the spaces, creating a division that still allows natural light to flow through. Small porthole windows let in a little extra light and reveal the thick stone foundations of this old building. The decor is decidedly minimalist, with splashes of pop art on the walls. In the bedroom, cooling white walls and a generous queen-size bed guarantee a peaceful rest. A ten-minute walk along the river takes you to the wine bars of Ribeira and the beautiful sights of Porto’s UNESCO-protected historic centre.

Quay to My Heart

Petite and pared-back, this apartment is ideally placed for sightseeing. You'll find it nestled between the shops and markets on a pedestrianised street in the heart of the city. Exploring on foot is a breeze here – or, if you'd prefer to take it easy, there are metro stops and trams nearby. Back home, the living area isn't the biggest, and the compact kitchen makes cooking anything more than a snack a challenge. However, each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and the uncluttered design is a reprieve after a day out and about. There's even a tiny balcony overlooking the street – perfect for a quick spot of people-watching.

Catarina Soul

Set in the heart of downtown Porto, this apartment is close to Porto's main squares and landmarks, such as the Chapel of Souls. We love this home's private, sunny terrace here – the perfect spot for breakfast or cocktails in the evening. Inside, there's a well-equipped kitchen if you want to try your hand at creating some Portuguese cuisine, and there's a desk if you need to catch up on some work. This place will appeal to business professionals, couples and families. You may have to toss a coin to see who gets the bedroom that opens onto the terrace, though.

Downtown Porto’s Charm

With easy access to a whole host of iconic Porto attractions, this cosy apartment is perfect for those wanting to drop off their suitcases and head straight out to explore. Space is limited here, as you’d expect with a studio, but it’s comfortable for a couple on a city break. The kitchenette is best suited to light bites, but with such a central location, while you may have a little street noise to contend with, you’ll find local eateries to dine out with ease. 

Sleek Nook

If you’re visiting Porto as a big group of friends and family, this modern pad covers all the bases. Central location? Check. Modern designs? Check. Balcony? Check. With en-suite bathrooms, getting ready in the morning is a breeze, but please note that the four guests sleeping on the sofa beds will need to share the bathrooms. We love the spacious and sociable kitchen, perfect for family dinners at home. However, with Porto's diverse restaurants on your doorstep, you'll likely prefer to dine out, especially with foodie havens like Rua Santa Catarina and Mercado do Bolhão just a short walk away.

The Porto Retreat

This beautiful apartment combines modern decor with traditional style as you reside in the city. The walls are made from stone, lit up by the daylight that pours in through the large windows in the living space. Snuggle up on the sofa with the cushions as you watch a movie on the TV together – the aroma of a homecooked meal flowing through the home from the kitchen. 

Enjoy meals at the circular dining table, before heading out onto the balcony to sip on a sumptuous glass of wine – you get a gorgeous skyline view from this spot no matter the time of day. Get comfy under the covers in the bedroom to read a brand new book as the sunlight streams in, accompanied by a mug of hot chocolate. Spend evenings on the balcony as you bathe in the amber glow of the sunset with a flute of champagne.

Head out to explore the city of Lisbon, with bustling streets and cosy eateries that serve up delicious cuisine ranging from local dishes to global specialties. Visit historical landmarks that offer beautiful backdrops for those all-important holiday snaps or wander through the charming National Museum of Contemporary Art.
