Holiday rentals with lake access in Norte Region

We had a lovely stay! The most communicative hosts and they went above and beyond with instructions, information, and local recommendations.

The family had a fantastic week at a great location. Joao was a great host and super helpful.

Mooie plek en fijn appartement. Schitterend uitzicht en zeer mooie omgeving.

We had a wonderful stay in Marta’s home! It was beautiful and comfortable. We felt right at home! Marta was available and happy to answer any questions we had. She was proactive and checked in with us to make sure our stay was going well. The area is gorgeous. Walkable and easy to explore. We hope to be able to come back one day!

Las fotos coinciden con lo experimentado! Al lado del lago. Perfecto para desconectar y disfrutar de la familia. Muchas gracias

Una casa confortable y espaciosa. Camas muy cómodas. Habitaciones completas cada una con baño propio. Espacio exterior que le da un plus a la casa. Pedro y Cristina muy atentos a nuestras necesidades y muy amables. Experiencia recomendable.

C’était extraordinaire ! Les enfants ont vraiment adores leur séjour grâce à toutes les attentions pour eux dans le logement. Malgré la pluie personne ne s’est ennuyé ! Le logement est magnifique, endroit tranquille et si près de la ville et des attractions. Nous avons adoré, le meilleur logement à ce jour avec des enfants.

We had a wonderful stay! The house is exactly as shown in the photos — very clean, comfortable. One of the highlights was the amazing jacuzzi — it was spotless, easy to use, and the perfect way to relax after a day of exploring. The location is ideal, close to everything we needed, yet peaceful enough to unwind. The host was incredibly attentive and responded quickly to all our questions. We truly felt at home! We definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a special and relaxing stay.

From the moment we booked Isabel was extremely helpful and responsive to any queries. She met us at the apartment and took time to identify places to visit, advised us on restaurants, suggested excursions. Sorted out a taxi to take us back to the airport. Isabel made our trip completely hassle free. I haven’t even mentioned the beautiful studio apartment, immaculate, tastefully decorated, extremely comfy bed and pillows and of course the view of the Douro. Walking distance from the riverside bars and restaurants and also to the centre of Porto which is up hill but in a quiet residential street which was nice to come back to after exploring the busy streets of Porto.

My family had a wonderful stay! We enjoyed exploring Gaia and loved the view of Porto! Isa and Hugo were very quick to respond to our questions and helped with any problems we had. They were easy to communicate with and very kind. The apartment was clean and comfortable. We will remember our stay fondly!

Great view from the kitchen window and lovely comfortable bedrooms

The apartment was so cozy, we were grateful for the little local treats that were left for us it was such a nice touch. The apartment was clean and had a beautiful view of the river from the bedroom windows. The small town was quaint and we enjoyed immensely walking around trying all the amazing restaurants and enjoying the beach. My family and I can’t wait to visit this amazing place again soon!!! Thank you for an amazing little getaway!!

My wife and I live in Europe, are from the US and we have stayed over 95 Airbnbs around the world. This apartment is on the absolute best location. The best. The views are ideal. The host is responsive & professional. The proximity of the parking lot, to the apartment - is as good as it gets. Upon initial entry there was a bit of a challenge with the computerized entry system, but I think that was due to them letting me in an hour early. They resolved it very quickly. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. It also had very large bath towels. I definitely recommend it

Appartement spacieux, très très bien équipé. On se sent bien accueilli par les touches décoratives et les attentions ( des petits chaussons vous attendent à l'entrée). L'hôte est disponible pour répondre aux attentes. Location très professionnel. Seul petit point améliorer, la literie du lit king size, sinon tout le reste est parfait.

It is delighted that Sonia had tried her best to make our early check-in become possible. She welcomed us directly with a brief introduction of the accommodation. The house is clean and comfortable to all of us. Sónia’s place, located in Vila Nova da Gaia is a convenient location good to everywhere esp. it is walking distance to nearby sight-seeing place such as Jardim do Morro Hilltop park, Dom Luís I Bridge and Ribeira neighborhood etc. Fantastic views in both day and night could be viewed from both inside and outside of the house. Overall, good stay and will re-book Sonia’s house in the next time. Vincent

This large apartment offered unexpected luxury.  The furnishings are beautiful, the appliances high quality and the kitchen very well equipped (blender, mixer immersion blender etc) to make any meal. What a pleasure to have an expresso machine that could steam our morning lattes and  then sit with them by the huge windows and look out onto the marshes of the salt farms. What a beautiful view! It was a quick 15 minute walk to the train station and an easy 20 minute walk to the Centro. Thank you for a great stay

Muy buen alojamiento. Fernando siempre atento y amable. Muy recomendable!!

Ganz besonderer Ort direkt am Douro. Wunderschöne Terrasse mit Pool, Liegen und Garten mit Obstbäumen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Rui, your host, was brilliant and as effervescent as a freshly poured flute of fine French champagne - so much so that one almost needs to lie down and rest after having a chat. He loves his tree house and is extremely proud of his construction. One of the nights of our stay they had the fiercest storm in nearly 20 years - 100 kph winds, slashing rain and intense lighting and thunder yet in the morning both we and the tree house was still in the tree - can't say much about sleep but what an experience. It is, indeed, a magical experience. If you are coming by rental car, and a stickler for detail, be aware that you must drive over gravel roads for a few kms, which for most rental cars is not covered in the contract but if you drive in a mature and rationale matter who will ever know. Like how many people can say that they actually resided in a tree house. Just do it.

Gemütliches kleines Häuschen mit sehr ruhiger idyllischer Lage.

Gui has two houses for rent, in a nice, quiet, rural environment close to beautiful Ponte-de-Lima. She is very friendy and extremely helpful.

Wer das freie und unabhängige Reisen an den unterschiedlichsten Orten und in verschiedensten Unterbringungen über airbnb liebt und Portugal ebenfalls, der muss unbedingt in der alten Wassermühle von Julio gewesen sein. Wir haben haben die Gegend zwischen Lissabon und Porto bereist und vier Nächte bei Julio verbracht und es sehr genossen. Die Freundlichkeit von Julio, die Ruhe und die Natur rund um die Mühle, Tagestouren in der Gegend oder nur das Verweilen in dem wunderschön angelegten und sehr gepflegten Garten haben uns begeistert.

Ha sido la mejor experiencia hasta la fecha que he tenido. Todo estaba impecable, Moncho nos recibió desde el principio con una amabilidad increíble y me he sentido como en casa. La casa es super bonita con unas vistas preciosas y una limpieza del 10. Da gusto encontrar gente así y con una cercanía y calidad humana que hoy en día es difícil encontrar. Todas las valoraciones que haga son pocas porque de verdad el piso es 100% recomendable si se busca tranquilidad, relax , confort y buen trato. Moncho no dejó de demostrar atenciones hacia nosotros, nos dejaron tomates,café, agua, etc no sé cosas que demuestran que les importa como se sientan sus huéspedes y eso es muy importante. Graciasssss y volveremos sin duda

Hum... what can I say... I think the best is you experience by yourself. This place is amazing!! THE place to go if you like to be in a peaceful, stress free, beautiful and remarkable Airbnb in Douro. Don't think twice, just go. Thank you so much Maria for sharing your place with us and giving us the chance to enjoy it! cheers
