Beachfront holiday rentals in Vila Nova de Gaia

A very well-equipped house in a lovely seaside village, larger than the photos make it seem. Antonio greeted us like we were old friends and was really helpful with a couple of logistical issues caused by our late arrival. Miramar is a smashing little spot with a couple of nice eateries. 20 minutes on the train from central Porto and half an hour walk down the beach to the more bustling village of Aguda.

Meilleur AirBnB que nous avons fait! Si vous avez la chance d'y rester, allez-y les yeux fermés! Les hôtes ont été hyper réactif à nos demandes, nous on laissé de bonne recommandations à faire/manger aux alentours et ont été accommodant au niveau de notre départ et arrivé! Je reviendrais sans hésiter!

Séjour mémorable chez Rui ! Arrivée et départ flexibles grâce à la boîte à clefs. Maison de ville à 2 pas de la plage, au fond d’une impasse au calme. Intérieur cosy et bien décoré avec de grandes chambres confortables. Un équipement au top, rien ne manquait. Et la cerise: la petite terrasse de la chambre avec sa vue sur la plage et l’Océan ! Avec en prime un hôte des plus sympathiques, on ne peut qu’avoir hâte d’y retourner !

Wir sind absolut begeistert von der Herzlichkeit und Gastfreundschaft von Jorge und Susana! Wir blieben 2 Wochen und haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt! Es war makellos sauber und gemütlich eingerichtet und liebevoll dekoriert. Das Bett war so bequem! Jorge und Susana waren immer erreichbar und haben uns sogar bei Ankunft und während des Aufenthaltes ein paar Leckereien da gelassen. Toll auch war, dass wir ein Separé im Innenhof komplett für uns allein hatten. Für unsere beiden Hunde total toll, da sie den ganzen Tag in der Sonne liegen konnten, wenn wir arbeiteten, ohne dass wir Angst haben mussten, dass sie weglaufen können. In 5 Minuten ist man zu Fuß direkt am riesigen Sandstrand. Es war traumhaft und auch die Nachbarn haben wir schnell ins Herz geschlossen. Herzlichen Dank für die tolle Zeit! Wir kommen wieder!

Lovely place to stay, well managed, walking distance of both sides of the river.

La maison est située en bord de mer (la plage est à moins de 5 min de marche) et donne sur un jardin. Nous y avons passé un très bon séjour et avons pu facilement visiter les environs (Gaïa, Aveiro, Porto). Mention spéciale pour Hugo qui est très disponible et dispense de bons conseils.

Raquel ist eine wunderbare Gastgeberin. Sie hat uns sehr freundlich in Empfang genommen und uns mit hilfreichen Tipps versorgt. Sie hat die Wohnung liebevoll eingerichtet und sie ist so wie auf den Fotos beschrieben. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und können einen Aufenthalt sehr empfehlen!

Merci beaucoup 😊 Vitor de votre gentillesse, disponibilité. C’est un hôte charmant qui habite dans une maison typiquement portugaise, ce qui fait tout son charme, et ce qui est rare maintenant. À deux pas de la plage de surf. En plein centre ville. Encore merci 🙏.

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.

Loved our two weeks in Marta’s apartment. Marta and Costa are great hosts and even made it possible for is to arrive at 1 a.m. They also provided breakfast for the following day. The apartment was perfect for our family of 5 with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The apparent was very clean and well equipped even with a dishwasher and a washing machine. The terrance is very big overlooking the huge pool with plenty of vacant chairs. The location is excellent only a few minutes walking from the beautiful beach and an area with lots of good small bars and restaurants.

A beautiful apartment with absolutely everything you could need for a family holiday! Natacha’s place is spotlessly clean, lots of space and so many little extras it really felt like a home from home. The views of the sea and the sunset from the balcony were amazing! The pool was huge and clean and the surrounding area peaceful but close enough to Porto and Gaia by bike or a quick Uber ride. There is a boardwalk and cycle path just across the road that goes all the way down the beach to Porto. There is a supermarket nearby and some lovely beach bars and restaurants along the front. Natacha was a perfect host - friendly and very responsive and helpful with lots of ideas and suggestions for our stay. Our teenage girls loved the surf lessons that Natacha suggested and we had lots to do and lots of sights to see. Thank you Natacha for the perfect stay. We recommend 100% and would definitely stay again!

El alojamiento es ideal para pasar unas vacaciones familiares tranquilas. Los anfitriones han estado muy atentos a nosotros en todo momento con una comunicación muy fluida y con respuestas muy rápidas. Hemos estado muy a gusto. Ademas, a 10 min a pie, por un camino perfecto bordeando la playa, esta el pueblo donde puedes comprar pescado fresco en una lonja alucinante o disfrutar de restaurantes muy buenos a buenos precios. Sin duda un lugar y unos anfitriones para recomendar.

Alles super, alles vorhanden und sauber. Gerne wieder. Schöne ruhige Lage.

Wow I really enjoyed the stay. The place is impeccably styled and is very conveniently located. The host is awesome and we were fed a daily supply of crazy amount of bread and pastries. What is not immediately clear from the photos is that the place is in a vicinity of a big port, but that is actually a very interesting view to see so we're more than enjoyed the stay and would totally come back again.

A beautiful Villa with a nice pool and barbecue outside we all love it we are definitely coming back again. Highly recommended.

We were greeted by Alex. He was very friendly and informative. Walked us thru the apartment and explained everything. There was a large bowl of fresh organic fruit,a decanter of fine Ruby Port & delicious Melba toast wafers with a jar of jam. Very nice welcoming!! The apartment is squeaky clean,with on site parking. The area is beautiful- steps from the ocean and many beaches & retaurants. An easy drive to historic Gaia. Overall a wonderful stay.

Tout était parfait, Bruno et Anselmo sont des hôtes au top ! Le logement était parfait et la vue… splendide ! Merci pour tout !

La casetta è deliziosa, arredata con stile “vero e sincero” direi, e con questo intendo che non scimmiotta il gusto del momento, ma ha uno stile raffinato e “suo”. Abbiamo molto apprezzato i due radiatori elettrici le le trapunte in più perché il meteo è stato più fresco del previsto, ma in casa si stava benissimo. Armadio enorme e cucina attrezzata con detersivi sia per lavastoviglie che per lavatrice, gran comodità. Flessibilità nel check out. Tutto benissimo.

Beautiful apartment in a delightful area. The views from the sleeping loft were stupendous. The area is safe and quiet, with restaurants nearby and cute streets to explore, plus river and ocean. Ariana's recommendations were excellent and she was so responsive as a host. She usually answered me within 10 minutes! She is warm and friendly, helping to make my stay in Porto memorable. I was able to cook some meals on the well-equipped kitchen. Highly recommend.

Great location close to beach and restaurants. The apartment is very spacious, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. We had a car and it was great that parking was so easy.

We had a wonderful stay at Pedro’s place. The location is unbeatable – right by the beach, perfect for walking along the promenade. It’s easy to get to the city center, whether by foot, with the bikes Pedro kindly provides (which worked perfectly), or by Uber. The apartment was great, everything was clean and well-equipped. What really stood out was Pedro’s care as a host. On our last day, there was a blackout across parts of Portugal and Pedro went out of his way to make sure we were okay – he brought us food, kept us updated about the situation, and even made sure we’d be safe and comfortable if it lasted longer. That level of attention really made a difference. We’ll definitely be coming back. Thanks again, Pedro!

Der Aufenthalt auf Antonios Boot war toll! Wenn ich in Zukunft in Porto bin werde ich Antonios Boot einem Hotel oder einer Ferienwohnung vorziehen. Die Duschen und Toiletten im Hafen sind super sauber, genauso das Boot selbst auch. Die Kommunikation mit Antonio war super und er hat uns sogar Tipps gegeben, wie wir am besten in die Innenstadt von Porto kommen, was mit E-Rollern vom Boot aus super klappt. Ich komme gerne wieder.

My family had a really good stay in Pedro’s apartment. Pedro was super responsive and always available to help. Great 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!
