What's better than enjoying a refreshing cocktail on a sun-soaked terrace? Not much, if you ask us, and this laid-back Porto pad has precisely that. We could spend all day here basking in the rays – the private terrace is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning cup of coffee, curl up with a book in the afternoon or savour a post-dinner glass of the city's famous port. Situated just outside the city centre, this apartment is a refreshing change of pace from Porto's hustle and bustle. The design is simple and fuss-free, with a separate desk space ideal for those in town on business. Your host can also arrange housekeeping and catering services if you plan to spend your days flitting about the city, making this an effortless option for busy travellers wanting the comforts of an apartment and the amenities of a hotel. Although you're a little further from the main tourist spots, Combatentes Station is a four-minute stroll away. Hop on the D train and get whisked away to São Bento in the city centre in just sixteen minutes – from there, Sé do Porto, Cais da Ribeira and Clérigos Tower are all within walking distance. Closer... to home, you'll find restaurants, supermarkets and Estádio do Dragão – the stadium of FC Porto, thirteen minutes on foot.

Local guide
About Bonfim
Bonfim is a neighbourhood where you can really blend in and live like a local. It’s not at all overrun by tourists. It was formerly an industrial area, and in parts the architecture still bears traces of this. There’s a real mix of local businesses as well as trendy cafes and restaurants — a good fit for families or groups after a low-key base not too far from the centre....
