About this property
Casa Belavista 2
Located in the historic and elegant area of Foz Velha, this beautiful 18th-century house measures 60 m². It features a living room, bedroom, bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchen. The bedroom has a double bed, and the living room has two sofa beds. The house is equipped with cable TV and free Wi-Fi.
The house is decorated in warm colours and furnished with Indo-Portuguese pieces, combining the charm of bygone eras with modern comforts to create a cosy and inviting atmosphere. It is situated on the banks of the Douro River estuary, with the river on one side and the sea on the other. It is the perfect place to go for walks. Stroll through the narrow streets and be dazzled by the intricate stone pavements and the beautiful balconies. In this historic part of Porto, there's no shortage of interesting sights, such as the Renaissance-style S. Miguel XVI Lighthouse or the 18th-century Baroque church.
The bus will quickly take you 5 km from the city centre, or to Matosinhos, where you'll find fish and seafood restaurants. A ride on the old tram, which starts near the house and ends at Ribeira (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), runs along the riverbank and is highly recommended. The area is home to several good bars and upscale restaurants. You can enjoy various sports, such as tennis and golf.
Located on the waterfront, this apartment is in Foz do Douro, a neighbourhood in Porto. Porto Historic Center and Porto Cathedral are notable landmarks, and travellers looking to shop may want to visit Bolhao Market. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Crystal Palace Gardens or Alfandega Congress Center. Scuba diving and windsurfing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking and cycling nearby. Visit our Porto travel guide
Located in Foz do Douro, this apartment building is 0.4 mi (0.6 km) from Sao Joao Baptista da Foz do Douro Castle and 2.8 mi (4.5 km) from Porto Historic Center. Carneiro Beach and Felgueiras Lighthouse are also within 15 minutes. Passeio Alegre Stop is only a 2-minute walk and Cantareira Stop is 3 minutes.

Perfect location!
The flat is spacious, clean, well-furnished and very comfortable. The host is very welcoming and helpful. The flat is conveniently located at the end of the tram line and near the bus stop, so we could easily reach the centre of Porto, but also enjoyed exploring a quieter and more residential area. There are many restaurants nearby and the sea-front is beautiful!
Our stay at Casa da Bela Vista was simply spectacular.
We arrived on a cold winter day in January (in the middle of the pandemic-and a very strict lockdown) from the USA. We came by ourselves, with no contacts, no relatives, we knew absolutely no one. Luiz’s kindness and hospitality went above and beyond the call of duty. He made us feel very welcome in this new land where we were now “the foreigners.”
We are headed to explore more of Portugal, but do plan to return to Porto and when we do, I hope Luiz’s space is available 😊😊
Muito Obrigada Luiz and Christina
Zu Fuß zum Strand, mit Rad nach Matosinhos... Oder mit Bus oder Bahn in die Stadt. Alles ist hier möglich 😊 schöne, geräumige Wohnung mit allem, was man benötigt. Da im Souterrain ist es im Herbst etwas kühl und da es keine zu öffnenden Fenster gibt, klimatisch etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig... Aber ansonsten alles top! Wir empfehlen das Appartment gerne weiter. Preis Leistung stimmt! Vielen Dank!

tres satisfaits
Une semaine chez Mr de Lencastre, entre océan et fleuve, entre quartier chic de bord de mer et centre historique de cette magnifique ville de Porto. Appartement cossu, sympa, propre, bien équipé, un hôte discret, riche de connaissances sur sa ville qu'il fait partager.
Bref, une semaine de plaisirs et de découvertes au sein de ce cher Portugal que nous apprécions de plus en plus à chaque visite.
Obrigado e até breve senhor Luiz !

Imaginatively furnished basement flat in characterful building, great situation near park and river.
We hadn’t realized that our rental was in a basement, below the level shown by this image. A charming and characterful flat, but dark and of course without the views suggested by the name Boa Vista. We enjoyed our stay despite plumbing problems, the worst of which were fixed promptly.

Schöne, geräumige Erdgeschosswohnung direkt an der Atlantikpromenade von Foz do Douro
Eine sehr gemütliche Wohnung mit bester Verkehrsanbindung (sowohl die historische Straßenbahn, als auch eine Buslinie ins Stadtzentrum von Porto halten direkt vor dem Haus), sowie einer wunderschönen Lage direkt an der Douromündung.
Die Vermieterfamilie war äußerst freundlich, die Kommunikation (auf Englisch) sehr unkompliziert und immer offen für Fragen. Obwohl die Familie eine Etage über der Ferienwohnung lebt, fühlte man sich zu keinem Zeitpunkt daran erinnert.
Die Wohnung ist besonders geeignet für Paare, die eine Mischung aus Erholungs- und Kultururlaub suchen.
Von uns gibt es eine uneingeschränkte Empfehlung, wir würden jederzeit wieder hier Quartier beziehen!

vacaciones agosto
Tiene una ubicación excelente, entre Oporto ciudad y las playas, lo que te permite dar unos paseos muy agradables por la desembocadura del río Duero.
El apartamento, que forma parte de un edificio señorial es muy bonito, con muebles de madera, antiguos y una decoración exquisita.
Sin embargo, necesita un poco de atención en algunos detalles de la cocina y los grifos del cuarto de baño. Además, al ser un bajo, tiene poca luz natural, pero es lógico si uno quiere disfrutar de un edificio singular. El propietario es muy amable.
