About this apartment rental
Just steps from the Santo Ovídio metro station, this apartment is set in a quiet residential area surrounded by green spaces. A highlight of the neighbourhood is Cravel Park, a vast natural area with over 6 hectares of walking trails and scenic viewpoints, perfect for outdoor strolls, fresh air, or simply slowing down. Away from the city's hustle, yet with direct metro access to central Porto in just 15 minutes, it's ideal for those seeking a well-designed space that balances work, rest, and quality of life.
The Space
- Living Room + Kitchen (open plan)
The social area is bright and spacious, with a chaise-longue sofa that invites you to relax, a dining table for up to 6 people, and a desk that’s perfect for focused work. Air conditioning provides an ideal temperature for your total comfort.
The modern kitchen is fully equipped - stove, oven, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine, and a Bosch espresso machine. A peninsula with high stools separates the kitchen and lounge in a practical, elegant way.
- Balcony
Large glass doors open onto a balcony with open views of the surrounding greenery. The ideal spot to breathe, sip coffee in the sun, or take a mindful break between tasks.
- Main Bedroom
A calm, naturally lit space with a queen-size bed (160x200), AC, built-in wardrobe, and TV, perfect for a restful night.
- Second Bedroom (interior)
Windowless but functional: it has a single bed (with a pull-out trundle), TV, desk, and wardrobe. A great option as a quiet workspace, guest room, or a second sleeping area.
- Bathroom
Spacious and modern, with a bathtub, towel heater, and plenty of storage.
Why Stay Here
- Quick access to Porto: Just 5 minutes from the metro, with a direct line to the city centre.
- Calm surroundings: A peaceful, green neighbourhood with a local vibe.
- Work-from-home ready: Two desks, natural light, and stable Wi-Fi.
- Comfort meets function: AC, balcony, fully equipped kitchen, well-planned layout.
- Light, modern style: Clean lines, warm wood accents, and a relaxed, uncluttered atmosphere.
Good to Know
- The second bedroom is interior (no windows) and does not have AC.
- There’s no private parking, but free street parking is usually available.
- The area is quiet and residential. No nightlife or restaurants at your doorstep, but everything is easily reached by metro.
After 22:00, a €25 late check-in fee applies (paid in cash upon arrival).
On the day of your arrival, a member of our team will be at the apartment to welcome you. To avoid any delays, please inform us your flight number and the estimated time of arrival at the apartment with at least 48 hours in advance. The information we’re requesting is very important for us to coordinate our team and to provide you the best welcoming experience. Without that information we cannot guarantee you a prompt check-in, so your cooperation is very important.
We are more than happy to assist you during your stay, so if you have any questions or if you are looking for some local recommendations, don't hesitate to contact us. We are here to help!
