Beachfront vacation rentals in Porto District

An ideal place, a nice house with space, to have a holiday with a family with larger children: something for everyone! By train you are easily in lively Porto, always a Bolt driver nearby to take you to nice places such as the beach on the Douro (Arnelas) or the somewhat more adventurous places like the Arouca Bridge, as well as enjoy beautiful sunsets, delicious coffees and waves brave just 1 dune away. Antonio received us very well and always responded very quickly

The house of Susana , is charming , super cozy , we feel at home . Pena was the little time we enjoyed it , they were good times in the family and to improve we took our dog , who was also very well received . The only aspect I would say to improve is really the time of check out , it is quite early , I think it does not make much sense especially for those who have not been able to enjoy the house enough, which unfortunately was our case . thank you very much Susana for your sympathy with everything ! We'll be back for sure!

Perfect Matosinhos apartment near the beach. Miguel is a kind and helpful host. Highly recommend!!

Awesome place by the beach! Would definitely stay again.

Great stay, very clean, accurate to the photos. Nothing is missing and the terrace is a real plus.Susana is always there if we need and spoiled us on arrival and during the stay. Recommended ++++++ we will definitely be back

I would definitely recommend this place. Beautiful view of the river, easily accessible via metro and bus. Walkable to the port cellars and restaurants. Antoine was always available and sent easy entry instructions ahead of my stay

The house is located by the sea (the beach is less than 5 min walk) and overlooks a garden. We had a lovely stay there and were able to easily visit the surroundings (Gaia, Aveiro, Porto). Special mention for Hugo who is very available and gives good advice.

Nice little place in an ideal spot if you’re just looking for somewhere to relax. The terrace over looking the ocean is great, and you can walk for miles along the coast line on the walk way. Exactly what I wanted.

Great stay, good location and as described. Amazing support after our stay. We forgot a tablet in the appartment and they were amazing helping us out to have it ship to our home. Very efficient and supportive.

I loved my stay, the very welcoming apartment and very well equipped with everything that is necessary, from the balcony you see the sea... Rui is a super helpful, attentive and excellent communication host, it responds very quickly to messages. We love everything and when we return to Povoa concerteza we will return to hosperdar here.

The accommodation is ideal for a quiet family vacation. The hosts have been very attentive to us at all times with very fluid communication and very quick responses. We have been very comfortable. In addition, a 10-minute walk away, on a perfect path bordering the beach, is the village where you can buy fresh fish in a mind-blowing pond or enjoy very good restaurants at good prices. Definitely a place and a few hosts to recommend.

Beautiful, massive unit with tonnes of amazing natural light and ocean views. Very comfortable bed and living areas which were perfect for relaxing after a long day. Big kitchen with everything you could need for a meal any size. Ample parking for your vehicle right outside the entrance door. While Gaia and this location in particular is not “Porto” we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if we were visiting. The drive from here to the porto old town and city centre can be done in under 15 minutes snd it’s very easy to come and go. This location feels so much less stressful than the busy, tough to navigate streets of Porto. Tonnes of restaurants and a grocery story within a walk or drive, great ocean walk right out front of the door.

The quiet area with dunes and sea views, a great bed and a great shower, were fundamental elements of our experience in this apartment. The most unpleasant thing was the communication with those responsible for the accommodation: all the people I exchanged messages with were kind and diligent to respond but the fact that they referred us to a website asking for more data and more procedures (in addition to those provided here on Airbnb) made me angry and frustrated. In this process of exchanging messages I had to do what I consider a disproportionate effort for a simple booking. For the sake of the next guests, I hope you can improve on the simplification of the process! I appreciate the flexibility and kindness you had at check-in and check-out!

We had such a lovely stay and the property exceeded our expectations. In our view, the property is even better than the photos showed. The property had everything we needed. We had great fun on the paddle boards Susana provided. It is worth noting that the public beach (400m away) does get noisy with some loud music, but we still had a wonderful time. Susana was great and very helpful and always responded promptly. Thank you Susana!!

We had an amazing few days, would stay again in a heartbeat. Everything was perfect and so comfortable. Clean, fantastically equipped and Adriano was so friendly and responded to every little question. Thank you so much for hosting us. Obrigada!

Everything is great, everything available and clean. We'd love to come back. Nice quiet location.

We had an incredible stay on the houseboat in Póvoa da Varzim! The boat itself was charming, comfortable, and a truly unique way to experience the area. Miguel was an amazing host — always available to help with anything we needed and full of great recommendations for local spots to visit. His hospitality made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for something a little different and memorable!

Very lovely flat with nice ocean view. The hosts are welcoming and the communication is on point. We'll gladly come back when we visit north Portugal again.

Perfect, highly recommend, 10/10!

Our party of seven adults and two small children had a fabulous stay at Rui’s property. The location was perfect. There was a gorgeous beach very close to the house. The very good restaurants and shops nearby meant that we had the flexibility to access all that we needed without a car. The station nearby enabled us to travel easily to Porto. Ubers were cheap which gave us another option when there were train strikes. The house was very well equipped and individual bathrooms made it easier with a large group. Hot water was plentiful. A couple of the bathrooms smelt a bit damp at times but this was not too much of a problem. Rui was the perfect host, extremely helpful and quick to answer all our questions. The guidebook gave us great information. We were very impressed with the recommended restaurants. We would definitely recommend.

we had a wonderful stay and immediately felt very comfortable. Unfortunately, it was only a short stay of two nights, you can certainly stay here longer and have a great time in the immediate vicinity of the Atlantic. Despite delays in our arrival, we were welcomed super friendly and personally still at night. Thank you very much!

My family had a very nice stay in Pedro’s apartment. It’s nicely located near the beach and in cozy neighbourhood. Pedro was very friendly and always available in case of need! Very nice stay!

Best weekend! The house is simply beautiful and the hosts were amazing and very nice. Everything was prepared for a large group and honestly none of us wanted to leave. Very good vibes, cant wait to go back!

We booked a 2nd stay since we enjoyed are 1st stay so much. Highly recommend
