Perfectly pitched, with sweeping views of the Douro River at its mercy, this charming apartment will have you experiencing Porto in a convenient and serene environment. Days begin clutching your morning coffee out on the private balcony, taking in the tiled facades and shimmering sea views. Stepping inside, it's a lovingly curated space with soft furnishings, paintings, an original log burner and decorative touches that add a real sense of homeliness to the place. Cleverly designed to maximise the abundant natural light and dazzling vistas off the balcony, the open-plan living space and dining area faces the perpetual river. Elsewhere, the bedroom is a stylish affair with calm orange tones that will soothe the soul after a day down at the beach. Speaking of, fill your afternoons here with sunbathing and swimming at Praia do Carneiro's vast golden sands and crystal-clear waters. You're a short walk from Foz do Douro's waterfront promenade, boasting a variety of excellent restaurants, lively cafe-bars and popular markets for your evening's entertainment. We also recommend the 17th-century Castelo do Queijo fortress nearby for those in town for sightseeing.

Local guide


About Lordelo do Ouro

Lordelo do Ouro is a quiet, family-friendly area in between the seaside Foz do Douro and the inner western suburbs. You’re unlikely to really feel the presence of tourism here. At commuting distance from the city, it has a spread-out, suburban feel, though it’s also popular with younger crowds thanks to its relatively low rent. There’s a range of public transport options which make it well connected to the centre....
