Spacious, elegant and beautifully appointed along Foz do Douro's sparkling seafront, this apartment presents Porto in all of its glitz and glory. Inside, this modern home offers a comfortable stay for a small family or close group of friends, with its calm grey tones, soft furnishings and bright living space. Enjoy group meals in the light-filled dining area – complete with a contemporary kitchen for plating up home-cooked perfection. There's a warmth to the home too, with its dramatic spotlighting, curated flowers and dark wooden floors that keep things rustic. But the highlight of this apartment is its enviable location to the west of Porto. Known for its sandy beaches (the Praia da Luz is a fifteen-minute walk from your door), posh clothing boutiques, waterfront restaurants and glamorous crowd, the coastal Foz do Douro region is right up our alley. It feels like its own little village with old-style grocery shops and covered markets around every other corner. Spend hours wandering beside the mouth of the Douro River, taking in views of the 17th-century Castelo do Queijo fortress watching over this quiet yet illustrious part of town.

About Foz do Douro

Once a hub for fishing and commerce, Foz do Douro is now an upmarket neighbourhood that sits at the meeting point of the Douro river and the ocean. It’s considered the most affluent area of Porto, and many of its residents are professionals who commute into the city. It’s also popular with more elderly residents looking for peace and quiet. The seafront is dominated by wide esplanades, and bars and restaurants...
