A picture of effortless chic and understated elegance, this Parisian-style flat in Porto, with its teal colour palette and carefully curated furnishing, welcomes you to explore the city in style. Located just off the popular Rua de Santa Catarina, you'll find many of the must-see attractions within reach here, while the atmospheric streets below will have you feeling like a local. Start your mornings perched over the living room's Juliet balconies, as you watch the world go by. Pull up a pink-coloured velvet dining chair and enjoy a cooked breakfast in the window-side space as you map out your day's ventures. Natural light dances off the oak flooring, while the modern decor and a charming bedroom create a comfortable abode to call your own. When it's time to explore, head to Igreja do Carmo, Clérigos Tower and the Sé do Porto in just a few minutes on foot. From there, you'll stumble across all sorts of indie shops, family-run restaurants and hidden wine bars. Plus, you're a short walk from Cais da Ribeira, so you can enjoy a romantic riverfront stroll after dinner for two.
