Summary: From the moment we arrived, we knew that we had selected a gem of a property for our Porto stay. Fernando, our thoughtful host was quite simply, the best! Attention to details, the quality of the unit and furnishings, the little surprises, etc. ... it was apparent that 'House of Joy' would live up to its name. If this unit is available, you'd be very lucky to reserve it. Many, many thanks Fernando for sharing your apartment ... and beautiful city!

Summary: I cannot speak highly enough about this property, the location, or the host--all are excellent. The apartment itself is beautiful and updated, stylishly furnished, including comfortable beds, and fun artwork. It was thoughtfully stocked with everything you may need, including maps, adaptors, umbrellas, extra blankets, etc. It is in a perfect location for exploring Porto, and in a neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and coffee shops nearby, including the Bolhao market which is just a couple minutes walk away. Fernando went out of his way to meet us at the apartment for an early check in (much appreciated), to show us around and answer any questions. He had filled the kitchen refrigerator with beverages, fruit and breakfast items, was a great communicator leading up to and during our stay, and even helped book us a cab to the airport. Will definitely stay here again when back in Porto.

Summary: the "House of Joy" was true to it's name. Fernando was a wonderful host, he left beer, wine, fruits, bread and pastries in the kitchen for us. He also provided a list of recommended restaurants and sites. Location was perfect and accessible for us travelling with an 11 month old with a stroller.

Summary: Our visit to Porto was absolutely fantastic, and staying at this apartment truly elevated the experience.From the moment we arrived, the hosts went above and beyond—welcoming us warmly despite our late arrival at midnight due to a delayed flight. Their hospitality was exceptional, and the thoughtful touches, like the wine and croissants, made us feel right at home.The apartment itself was spacious, featuring three generously sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. It was perfect for our family of four but would also be ideal for two or three couples traveling together.The location was unbeatable, situated on the Porto side of the river. Many great restaurants , shops and of course Patel de Nata shops (recommend Fábrica da Nata (Rua Santa Catarina)). Everything we wanted to see and do was within a 15-minute walk, and getting to the iconic port lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia was a breeze—just a 25-45 minute walk or a quick and affordable Uber ride (6-10).Overall, this apartment offered the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and amazing hospitality. We couldn’t recommend it more highly!We also really enjoyed the great paintings throughout the apartment.

Summary: We had a lovely time staying at Fernando's apartment! It is beautifully decorated and location is so convenient for everything. The welcome pack (croissant, bread, juice, beer , fruits & wine) is so heartwarming.

Summary: This was hands down our favorite place that we stayed in Portugal. It was very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed, including air conditioning and an off-street place to park our rental car that we did not use in Porto. It was conveniently located to everything—shopping, restaurants, the river—we walked all over. Fernando was a terrific host, and the kitchen came stocked with a welcome stash of fresh fruits and breads and a bottle of wine, which we really appreciated. We hope to be back!

Summary: The apartment is beautiful, clean and had modern decor. The showers were very hot. The dining room allows for nice dinners for 6 people. The location was very convenient and it was close to shopping, restaurants and a grocery store. The host is very responsive and quickly answered tourist-related questions.

Summary: Cannot say enough good things about this property. From Fernando being there upon our arrival to greet and welcome us, as well provide excellent local recommendations for sights to see and restaurants to go to. He had a lovely supply of fruit, coffee, wine, croissants and other goodies to get us started with. The property was incredibly clean, and very comfortable for the 2 couples. While very close to the hub bub of Porto; walking distance to the Mercado, shopping, restaurants and historical sights, the 2 block buffer was perfect from a noise perspective. You’re still in the heart of a city, but not as noisy as other locations can be! You do not need, and probably would not want a car! Highly recommend this property.
