The historical district of Baixa is as cool as it gets in Porto –⁠ and it's where you'll find this ultra-slick apartment. Housed in a period building of handsome proportions, this place is exactly how you'd pictured Porto city living to be. Wrought-iron balconies dotted with blooming camellias greet you on arrival. While inside, ornately moulded high ceilings and balcony doors flood the space with natural daylight to make quite the first impression. Just note you'll have to climb quite a few stairs here. Rustle up breakfast in the smart, made-for-action kitchen, then come together around the dining table for a lazy breakfast as you hatch plans for the day ahead. Best served with those balcony doors wide open to let the sunshine in. And when the charming cobbled streets below finally come calling, you won't have far to go.
