Located in Madalena, Porto this fantastic apartment is just a short three-minute walk to the nearest beach meaning you can spend many hours relaxing on the soft, golden sands, listening to the soothing wave sounds, or even braving a dip in the ocean waters. Why not treat yourself to a breakfast delivery and begin your mornings here enjoying a continental breakfast on the balcony as the sea breeze caresses your skin?

Then, grab your beach essentials and head to one of the perfect beaches – many of which are Blue Flag certified. If you’re feeling up to it, go for a long, leisurely walk along the coast to reach the chapel of Senhor da Pedra – just over an hour away on foot – which dates back to the seventeenth century. Or, hop in the car and head to Porto – a twenty-minute drive away – where you will find many well-known sights including the Cathedral and the world-famous bookshop, Livraria Lello.

In the evening, however, you won’t need to go far from home to find great restaurants which are reachable in as little as five minutes on foot, or supermarkets for food shopping if you’d rather cook at home. We would love to end each day here with a glass of Port wine on the balcony to enjoy the last of the views as the sun sets and night descends.
