This is one of the most picturesque neighbourhoods in Vila Nova de Gaia. The main attractions are within walking distance. The beautiful Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar is worth a visit. The views from outside the monastery will take your breath away. Next door to the sanctuary is the palm-shaded Jardim do Morro. The gardens are a pleasant spot to take a seat and enjoy the views out over the river and Porto that make this worth a visit, particularly at sunset when the river turns to gold. If you go down the narrow and picturesque streets of Gaia, you’ll reach the riverside, where it’s possible to find the famous Port Wine Cellars. It’s also a great spot to have dinner, enjoy a glass of port wine and shop. An alternative to reach the riverside is by taking the Teleferico de Gaia (Gaia’s Cable Car).

This apartment was perfect for our 4 day stay in Porto. More than enough space for 3 adults. The location was perfect, miraduoro, train station, and cafe just a short walk away. The view from the windows was absolutely stunning and made minor flaws easy to overlook. We stayed during the heatwave, there was no ac however there were 3 fans, adequate ventilation, and very good window coverings. Because we had to sleep with the apartment open, the street noise was loud overnight but didn’t bother us too much. There is also a cute cat that hangs out on the back porch. We wish there were a few more bed pillows!

Ideal family break
The location is perfect and the view from the balcony is magnificent. Easy access . The flat is beautiful and clean with lots of facilities. It's also in a quiet area, so it's perfect for relaxing. The 2 bathrooms are a big plus :)
Lack of heating. It's cold and damp in winter. It's a shame because the paint on the walls flies and the shower towels don't dry. The windows are fogged up. This is the only drawback that needs to be remedied because the flat is really nice.
