Sitting quietly to the east of Porto, this modern apartment offers a relaxing stay in a beautiful city. Located just three minutes' walk away from Parque de São Roque, a seven-minute walk from Estádio do Dragão and within easy reach of Dragão Metro Station, you've got the best of both worlds here – a combination of leafy green spaces, an exciting football stadium and a short metro ride into town. Dine out in Cais da Ribeira, filled with authentic eateries, hidden wine bars and a lively cafe culture, just thirty-six minutes away. But that's if you can peel yourself away from this sleek, all-encompassing home for two. Inside, wood floors, woven furnishings and beige tones create a light and airy space to unwind after a day exploring the city. Although, if it was up to us, we'd spend most of our time out on the deck terrace, complete with outdoor dining furniture, planted pots and glass screens for added privacy. With a lovely, marble bathroom to wake up to, a resort-style pool and a communal gym to maintain your daily fitness routine, and a cosy bedroom to retire to at night, you’ve got everything you need for a carefree stay in Porto.

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....
