Vacation rentals in Alvarenga

If you want to disconnect and have privacy, this is the place! A place with nice views, tranquility and space, especially if you go with a dog! Our dog loved the garden and was able to enjoy being loose and without danger of escaping since everything is enclosed. The house has everything to make it comfortable and nothing is missing! There are two houses in the space: the one you stay in, which is the first one you see as soon as you enter, and a larger one opposite, closer to the garden-pool area, which is closed. But you don't share space with anyone else during your stay. Inside the enclosure there is plenty of room for parking. We made an independent arrival and departure, due to the circumstances, although there is usually someone to welcome you. But communication with Antonio was good at all times. Thank you!

The place is exactly as described, well equipped with amenities and good location. The nearby train station is a few minutes walk. The apartment was clean and I recommend for stay.

Excellent stay for several in family with children. The area is beautiful and well maintained, the swimming pools are pleasant to cool down during heat waves. The hospitality is perfect; the price in season can be scary initially but the house, the estate and the kindness of the employees justify it. We'll be happy to go back! Thank you Ines (and Angela)

We were in Porto for 5 days as a family of three. The place was great. We had everything we needed. A Spar store is right around the corner. Everything around it was really very nice and it never got boring. There is a lot to explore, but also many small cafes and bars to stop in. From the property, everything was super easy to reach and what was not possible on foot, we reached with Uber such as the sea. We would do the trip again at any time. It was just great.

Everything is designed so that we can enjoy a vacation in a home as if it were our own. The fireplace that welcomed us, the miminhos that claimed us so much, Marta's constant concern for wanting to know if we found each other well and the location of the house made our stay perfect.

We had a very nice stay in Miquelinas house. It was quite large and they were very flexible with the check in even though we got delayed by more than two hours and didn’t arrive until 22:30. Would recommend if you’re looking for a place in that area

Great host very responsive and quick to answer any questions. Place was clean and tidy. Was a perfect stay for my family of 4 more than enough room. Close to the beach and places to eat.

We received a very warm welcome from Bartolo. Interesting, old apartment, part of a much larger farmhouse building. Antique furnishings and high ceilings give this Airbnb a very quaint feel, like going back in time. Plenty of blankets and hot water bottles for the unseasonable chilly nights on our arrival. We loved the ambience, the creative renovations which were being carried out whilst we were there, didn’t hinder our stay in any way. Beautiful views, animals in the grounds, wonderful kind people, made our trip very special. We took the train into glorious old Porto from Mindelo, leaving our hire car nearby. Do walk along the boardwalk in the nature reserve on the coast nearby. Characterful old villages and towns nearby for coffees and meals out. The Romantico drive along the Douro is a must, choose a dry day for the glorious views. We toured the old city and loved both sides of the river. Lots of musicians play there, it was a pleasure to lunch, listen and relax.
