Apartment holiday rentals in Arouca

Peaceful haven full of history, nature, and modernity Very nice place I recommend!!!!

I recommend it.

Large space, good rooms, cleaning, utensils and small appliances, direct access to walk, friendliness and readiness of the owner. The house is elevated, on top of commercial space.

It was a great experience. The village has surprised me, the house is beautiful, and its location is fantastic. Ana is super attentive and always attentive to my messages and inquiries,. I recommend it 100%.

Great place, authentic Portuguese environment!

Our stay was joyful and relaxing. We were warmly welcomed by the host with delicious traditional bread. The area is beautiful and tranquil, surrounded by mountains and lush greenery, with the soothing sounds of nature. The garden, filled with citrus trees, was a delight, and the jacuzzi and barbecue area made our evenings perfect. Inside, the building was cozy and well-heated, with clean, comfortable beds and fresh linens. We enjoyed sunny days in the garden and even on the rainy night, the spacious kitchen was ideal for gathering. The host was flexible with check in/out and very responsive. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Very clean and peaceful place, the kids also enjoyed it.

Very friendly and helpful, I recommend

Extraordinary experience!!! We could not have asked for more. From our first booking, Isabel communicated welcoming warmth. She was not only our host, but also our tour guide service. She arranged for airport transport, greeted us at the door and gave us a personal introduction to Porto. Through her recommendations, we booked a wonderful walking tour of the city and a magical full day excursion to the Duoro Valley. The carafe of port on the kitchen table was the icing on the cake. Isabel truly loves her city and her country and her enthusiasm made us feel so very welcome. We cannot give this experience any higher praise than to say we WILL return.

Staying at this beautiful place made my first visit to Porto truly memorable. The location was perfect—within walking distance to all the charming spots in the city center. It was also very quiet, which was ideal for a light sleeper like me. The view was absolutely spectacular. I highly recommend staying at Ani’s place! The host was very responsive and incredibly helpful throughout my stay.

Staying at Filipa’s was a highlight of our trip to Porto. In the lovely, very comfortable apartment looking out on the Douro with a balcony was dreamy. The windows closed tightly blocking all sound so any time day or night we need quiet to sleep or think we had it. If we come back to Porto we’ll go right back to Filipa’s apartment. So wonderful to stay in the historic district with easy access to all of Porto. Be sure to savor the welcome glass of port with their amazing chocolate mousse. Delicious!

What a great little apartment! Everything we needed and a fab view from the balcony. The location was really convenient. We enjoyed our stay very much!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Isabel and Igor’s apartment with views of the Duoro River. It was exactly as described and stocked with everything we needed. Even though it was in the busy Ribeira area, the apartment was very quiet. We even found a laundromat close by. When we return to Porto we will stay here again.

The apartment and the location or the view and the amenities were great. However, the truth is that a lot of hype is being built up. The host can't do that, but a completely new neighborhood is being built and you can hear it from the balcony from Monday to Saturday until 7 pm. In the apartment, you hardly notice it. Therefore, 5 stars with a reservation from us.

Incredible location & everything we needed for a 3 day weekend visit

Large ultramodern flat. Great views. Good location.

Isa and Hugo’s place is fantastic. Very responsive hosts. It’s a bit of a walk to Porto, but such a peaceful walk along the river with great views. We loved staying in Gaia and can’t wait to return.

Property as described, very well located.

Just perfect 2 min walk from restaurants and shops, just stunning views. They let us check in early at no extra costs, it was magnificent. Thank and will stay again very soon. Thank you once again.

Much more than a very nice accommodation, Sonia gives all the tips and good addresses to spend a wonderful stay. It contains everything you need, including a washing machine and dishwasher. Great!! Recommended.

Rui very attentive, the house is amazing… everything very organized and clean, I see the care and love in every corner of your house! I felt at home… The energy of the place is spectacular. I loved it!

Fernanda is a wonderful host and is quick to respond to messages. The cleaner, Carla, is friendly and eager to please. She speaks reasonable English and was able to provide clear instructions during checked in. The apartment is super spacious and well positioned. It has a lovely balcony that gets hours of sunlight in good weather. We loved the comfortable lounge and elegant dining area. The kitchen is well equipped with a separate laundry area. We experienced a cold spell and the fireplace in the living room was fantastic! The neighbourhood is very local and lovely to stroll around. Downstairs is a green grocer, wonderful chacuterie shop, hairdresser and coffee shop/bakery (padaria). From the apartment, one has a glimpse of the sea in the distance. It takes about 15 minutes to walk down to the water. We really enjoyed our stay and felt completely at home in Fernanda's apartment. Having a car at this rental, makes getting around easier.

apartment is clean. great bed, very comfy. we enjoyed the swimming pool that is included in the apartment rent. the apartment has too much furniture/decorations but that's our personal opinion so can't fault on that. Jose is great at responding to questions/ requests. great place, great location. The restaurant with the grills outside that you can see from the north balcony was our favorite! but all the others that Jose recommend are good as well.

We absolutely loved the apartment. The surrounding area was beautiful and calm, the sound of waterfall was very relaxing. The view from the window just amazing 🤩 The river beach 5 min walk down by the road. We stayed at two bedrooms apartment and place just was spotless. Full of Portuguese character with the modern twist. Bright and spacious. Everything that you need is there. You need a car definitely there. Check in and check out was straight forward. All instructions were provided. We didn’t have any problems. We would recommend the place 💯 present. And hope some else would enjoy as we did.
