Beachfront vacation rentals in Porto District

An ideal place, a nice house with space, to have a holiday with a family with larger children: something for everyone! By train you are easily in lively Porto, always a Bolt driver nearby to take you to nice places such as the beach on the Douro (Arnelas) or the somewhat more adventurous places like the Arouca Bridge, as well as enjoy beautiful sunsets, delicious coffees and waves brave just 1 dune away. Antonio received us very well and always responded very quickly

The house of Susana , is charming , super cozy , we feel at home . Pena was the little time we enjoyed it , they were good times in the family and to improve we took our dog , who was also very well received . The only aspect I would say to improve is really the time of check out , it is quite early , I think it does not make much sense especially for those who have not been able to enjoy the house enough, which unfortunately was our case . thank you very much Susana for your sympathy with everything ! We'll be back for sure!

Perfect Matosinhos apartment near the beach. Miguel is a kind and helpful host. Highly recommend!!

Memorable stay at Rui's! Flexible check-in and check-out with key box. Townhouse 2 steps from the beach, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. Cozy and well-decorated interior with large comfortable rooms. Excellent amenities, nothing was missing. And the icing on the cake: the small terrace of the room with its view of the beach and the ocean! With the added bonus of a very friendly host, we can't wait to go back!

We are absolutely impressed with the warmth and hospitality of Jorge and Susana! We stayed for 2 weeks and felt completely comfortable! It was spotlessly clean and cozy furnished and lovingly decorated. The bed was so comfy! Jorge and Susana were always available and even left us a few treats on arrival and during the stay. It was also great that we had a separate in the courtyard completely to ourselves. For our two dogs totally great, as they could lie in the sun all day when we were working without having to be afraid that they could run away. In 5 minutes you can walk directly to the huge sandy beach. It was fantastic and we also quickly took the neighbors to heart. Sincere thanks for the great time! We will be back!

Antoine's apartment is very clean, spacious and has everything it needs. I rented it for 4 nights and there was nothing missing. The apartment is close to the bus and metro stops and is a good starting point in all directions. Diana was a great help with my arrival and also with her suggestions. Highly recommended apartment!

The house is located by the sea (the beach is less than a 5-minute walk away) and overlooks a garden. We had a lovely stay there and were able to easily visit the surroundings (Gaia, Aveiro, Porto). Special mention for Hugo who is very available and provides good advice.

Nice little place in an ideal spot if you’re just looking for somewhere to relax. The terrace over looking the ocean is great, and you can walk for miles along the coast line on the walk way. Exactly what I wanted.

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.

Recently rented a pleasantly well maintained flat that exceeded expectations. It’s fully furnished, clean, and super comfortable. The balcony offers a stunning sea view, making it a perfect place to relax. The building has a lift, and the location is ideal—close to the sea, amenities, and main roads, yet wonderfully quiet. A practical and well-designed space that feels like home. To top it off, the host is amazing, ensuring a smooth and pleasant experience. Highly recommended!

Beautiful, massive unit with tonnes of amazing natural light and ocean views. Very comfortable bed and living areas which were perfect for relaxing after a long day. Big kitchen with everything you could need for a meal any size. Ample parking for your vehicle right outside the entrance door. While Gaia and this location in particular is not “Porto” we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if we were visiting. The drive from here to the porto old town and city centre can be done in under 15 minutes snd it’s very easy to come and go. This location feels so much less stressful than the busy, tough to navigate streets of Porto. Tonnes of restaurants and a grocery story within a walk or drive, great ocean walk right out front of the door.

The quiet area with dunes and sea views, a great bed and a great shower, were fundamental elements of our experience in this apartment. The most unpleasant thing was the communication with those responsible for the accommodation: all the people I exchanged messages with were kind and diligent to respond but the fact that they referred us to a website asking for more data and more procedures (in addition to those provided here on Airbnb) made me angry and frustrated. In this process of exchanging messages I had to do what I consider a disproportionate effort for a simple booking. For the sake of the next guests, I hope you can improve on the simplification of the process! I appreciate the flexibility and kindness you had at check-in and check-out!

We had such a lovely stay and the property exceeded our expectations. In our view, the property is even better than the photos showed. The property had everything we needed. We had great fun on the paddle boards Susana provided. It is worth noting that the public beach (400m away) does get noisy with some loud music, but we still had a wonderful time. Susana was great and very helpful and always responded promptly. Thank you Susana!!

beautiful location by the beach. Spotless, light and spacious apartment. perfect for our stay. prompt communication.

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.

Very good, I advise for couples!

Very lovely flat with nice ocean view. The hosts are welcoming and the communication is on point. We'll gladly come back when we visit north Portugal again.

Very well located, clean and spacious apartment. Carlos is very welcoming and punctual I recommend

Our party of seven adults and two small children had a fabulous stay at Rui’s property. The location was perfect. There was a gorgeous beach very close to the house. The very good restaurants and shops nearby meant that we had the flexibility to access all that we needed without a car. The station nearby enabled us to travel easily to Porto. Ubers were cheap which gave us another option when there were train strikes. The house was very well equipped and individual bathrooms made it easier with a large group. Hot water was plentiful. A couple of the bathrooms smelt a bit damp at times but this was not too much of a problem. Rui was the perfect host, extremely helpful and quick to answer all our questions. The guidebook gave us great information. We were very impressed with the recommended restaurants. We would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful stay! The hosts were very welcoming and always available if we needed anything. The apartment is clean, spacious, and well-maintained. It has everything you need for cooking — all the necessary kitchenware is provided. There are supermarkets nearby, which was very convenient. The location is fantastic — close to the promenade, the beach, and lots of great restaurants. We truly enjoyed our time here and will definitely come back with our family!

we had a wonderful stay and immediately felt very comfortable. Unfortunately, it was only a short stay of two nights, you can certainly stay here longer and have a great time in the immediate vicinity of the Atlantic. Despite delays in our arrival, we were welcomed super friendly and personally still at night. Thank you very much!

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!
