Very modern inside with all the important things done well - strong and fast wifi, comfortable beds, clean kitchen and good shower. Located across from the main beach where there is wind surfing etc. Host is outstanding and had literally thought of everything down to having a stocked fridge so you don’t need to shop on the day of your arrival.

João was very nice and always ready to answer any questions we had. The house was great, very clean and with a great view. One of the best places I have been.

The João beach house is a pearl that you don't want to share with anyone ;) I have to say that it's my best experience so far and I rent quite a lot of apartments over the year. João, the host is really helpful and kind. The fridge is full when you arrive and you have everything you need inside the appartement. The view is stunning, just front of the ocean and you can enjoy a 4 stars sunset. The comfort is exceptional going from the kitchen, to the bedroom and his spacious closet without forgetting the bathroom. Location is perfect. Front of the beach, in a calm zone and close to very good restaurant including a sushi place just down the apartment which is probably the best in the whole town. Less than 10 min from the airport and very close to Exponor. I can only warmly recommend you this very special place!

The apartment looks exactly like on the Fotos , the beach is right in front of the apartment, there are many very good restaurants around , some of them we attend more times.

Amazing views to the beach. Very relax surrounding area. There is direct BUS to Porto city center, 30 minutes. Free use of 2 bicycles. Great and easy paths to center of Porto, always facing the beach and river. Big Supermarket and lots of restaurants nearby.

My name is João and I'm a local from Porto. Love to travel but always happy when I get back home. Local surfer and triathlete. I'm looking forward to receiving you here. See you soon

Very calm, safe and relax area. Great to escape from the city center of Porto, only a few minutes away. Great beach to enjoy all year round. Surfing, running, bicycle rides and many others activities.

The Apartment is extraordinary nice and also fully equipped. By fully I mean fully. There is NOTHING missing at this place, nothing at all. I’m travelling a lot and I never had a better stay in a private apartment. The host João even offers a full Refrigerator. I felt like home from the frist minute until I unfortunately had to leave again. Mentioning the host: João is a super nice guy and he´s taking great care about his guests. He gave me a ride from and back to the airport, also gave me lots of interesting recommendations about the neighborhood and the town. He offers two bicycles which made my stay incredible comfortable. I was riding to get to the trade fair ground Exponor in 10 minutes, 5 minutes to the grocery store and took a wonderful stroll down to Porto along the ocean. The apartment is located right at the beach and the few down to the beach is breathtaking. Almost right in front of the building there is a bus stop to get to downtown Porto. It was a short business trip, but felt like a mini vacation! João Obrigado!

The apartment is beautiful, big and comes with a newly refurbished modern interior. Its location is great, right next to one of Porto's best surfer beaches. If you are into Alvaro Siza, also his "piscina das mares" and his "boa nova tea house" are in walking distance from the accomodation. I guess it's also time to mention the host besides the apartment. João is a super, super organized, helping and friendly host! I think it's the first time I can say that everything was perfect. He fills up the fridge with local food and wine upon your arrival and provides all sorts of equipment you might need during your stay (even beach games and balls etc.). In our case he let us even stay until 18pm in the evening and didn't mind that the check-in is normally until 12pm max. I can only repeat, such an open-minded, likable person! Go ahead, book your stay and enjoy :)

In fact, there is nothing to be improved this time....sometimes it does happen to be in the perfect place at your perfect time...
Joao made the stay the perfect time to enjoy and sightsee Porto within one day. The day before arrival, he started getting in contact with me in order to coordinate the delivery of the keys. The apartment is great, nice decoration, fresh style. You have everything you need for a longer stay. But the view from the main window to the sea is indeed speechless. This is a great place to stay and enjoy Porto.
