Tiago was a wonderful host--it is my first visit to Porto, and Tiago went out his way to ensure it went well, and printed a map of the area to help me get to the places I needed to get to during my stay. The apartment is small, but perfect for a single person, and the view is so stunning, I found myself preferring to return to the apartment to make meals because no restaurant has a better view. The little restaurant next door is incredibly friendly and helpful, and the Pingo Doce grocery store makes it very easy to get whatever you need. Tiago checked in by text to ensure I had all I needed, such as towels or supplies. The neighbors in the building and the surrounding neighborhood are all welcoming, and it's a wonderful, tranquil retreat that feels like another world from the crowded streets of Porto but easily accessible to anything you want to do while you're here. The one caveat of the location is Foz de Douro does not have a Metro station-- however, there are buses (and thank you Tiago for providing the link to the schedule!) and the historic tram is just down the hill from the apartment. I knew this before I rented, and ride share and taxis are so abundant that this isn't an issue-- but if you're not familiar with Porto and plan to use the metro, this might be the only very small drawback to the area, but the apartment and the view are well worth it! If we don't find an apartment to buy this trip, I will be staying at Tiago's river view apartment again next visit to Porto!

It is a tranquil and more suburban area overlooking the park and river below. It feels like a refuge from the crowds of Porto and within a 2 minute drive to the oceanfront avenues and tourist areas of Foz and Motasinhos. If you rent a car, or don't mind taking a bus--and like a quiet refuge after your sightseeing or business in Porto is done -- this is a perfect spot.

The Italian Restaurant next door is amazing- the food is good, the menu quite varied with pastas, steaks, pizzas, and plates of the day the include some fish and Portuguese traditional dishes. They will provide take out, so you can go enjoy your view, and I'm currently on a medically restricted diet (low sugar, low fat) and they the staff and the kitchen were always helpful to describe and adjust dishes so I could enjoy them. The Pingo Doce is small, more neighborhood sized market, and though offerings on things like toothpaste ( I forgot mine) and hand soap were a bit limited for variety, I was able to get what I needed, if not the exact brand I'd usually buy-- so it's quite ample to supply your needs. The staff is quite friendly, as was everyone I encountered in this neighborhood- just a happy, welcoming little area of Porto
