A Joyful Stay
the "House of Joy" was true to it's name. Fernando was a wonderful host, he left beer, wine, fruits, bread and pastries in the kitchen for us. He also provided a list of recommended restaurants and sites. Location was perfect and accessible for us travelling with an 11 month old with a stroller.

Fantastic Stay In Porto at the House of Joy
Our stay at this apartment was perfect from start to finish. The host met us promptly and invited us into a beautifully appointed 3-bedroom apartment. He thought of everything to make it a welcoming and a comfortable stay. The linens were beautiful, the beds comfortable and extra amenities very nice. The kitchen had everything we needed and our host welcomed us with food and beverages to make our stay complete.I highly recommend this property. The location is perfect for seeing Porto and walking all over this fabulous city.

We lacked for nothing, Fernando even thought to supply us with enough coffee & fresh rolls for our breakfast, so we didn’t have to think about that meal first thing in the morning & could just start exploring the beautiful city of Porto! Would definitely return!

Terrific find
This was hands down our favorite place that we stayed in Portugal. It was very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed, including air conditioning and an off-street place to park our rental car that we did not use in Porto. It was conveniently located to everything—shopping, restaurants, the river—we walked all over. Fernando was a terrific host, and the kitchen came stocked with a welcome stash of fresh fruits and breads and a bottle of wine, which we really appreciated. We hope to be back!

Wonderful stay, wonderful host. The check in and prior communication was amazing, so gracious and helpful. The kitchen was beautifully stocked and the whole apartment was clean and extremely well appointed. The location was comfortable and just fantastic, even down to the wonderful restaurant and pastry shop we were located above. It was warm and humid for part of the stay and the split climate control systems worked perfectly. Such a joy to stay at this location for a week. We would do it again in a heartbeat!

Excellent experience
The property is clean and well maintained. We were welcomed with fruit, rolls, croissants, and a nice bottle of wine. The kitchen was well equipped with everything one might need. A grocery store is right around the corner, a small restaurant below the apartment and nice pedestrian mall was a block away. The Metro station was also a block away making the apartment well located for most any Porto activities. The host, Fernando, was an excellent communicator. We highly recommend this property.

Short Stay In Porto
Overall great stay. Here are the main points. Pros: Apartment size and layout, Kitchen, beds very comfortable, convenient location - especially to the Bolhao Market, Fernando was very responsive and friendly.
Suggestions: En-suite bedroom bathroom was not in great shape, but functional, kitchen needs coffee grinder as there were beans and a French press, noisy early in the morning, but not at night, having the parking was great, but it’s not that convenient and note to VRBO- the address you sent me was incorrect.
Loved the trip to Porto and would recommend this apartment for the value.

3 nights in Porto
I cannot speak highly enough about this property, the location, or the host--all are excellent. The apartment itself is beautiful and updated, stylishly furnished, including comfortable beds, and fun artwork. It was thoughtfully stocked with everything you may need, including maps, adaptors, umbrellas, extra blankets, etc. It is in a perfect location for exploring Porto, and in a neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and coffee shops nearby, including the Bolhao market which is just a couple minutes walk away. Fernando went out of his way to meet us at the apartment for an early check in (much appreciated), to show us around and answer any questions. He had filled the kitchen refrigerator with beverages, fruit and breakfast items, was a great communicator leading up to and during our stay, and even helped book us a cab to the airport. Will definitely stay here again when back in Porto.

Fantastic stay
Cannot say enough good things about this property. From Fernando being there upon our arrival to greet and welcome us, as well provide excellent local recommendations for sights to see and restaurants to go to. He had a lovely supply of fruit, coffee, wine, croissants and other goodies to get us started with. The property was incredibly clean, and very comfortable for the 2 couples. While very close to the hub bub of Porto; walking distance to the Mercado, shopping, restaurants and historical sights, the 2 block buffer was perfect from a noise perspective. You’re still in the heart of a city, but not as noisy as other locations can be! You do not need, and probably would not want a car!
Highly recommend this property.

Perfect Porto getaway
My wife, Sister and Brother-in-Law and I had a wonderful stay at the apartment on Rua da Algeria in Porto!
The location was ideal for exploring the city's attractions on foot. The comfortable beds ensured a great night's sleep, and the double glazed windows effectively canceled out outside noise.
The AC was perfect, keeping the apartment at a comfortable temperature.
The kitchen was a good size for two people to cook in, and having Netflix available was a nice bonus.
It was convenient to have markets and groceries within walking distance.
The provided parking, though a short walk away, was a plus.
The balconies were a lovely touch, allowing for fresh air.
My only suggestion would be for the owner to provide a bread knife, which is a minor detail. Overall, it was a fantastic stay!

This picture perfect apartment is in an excellent location!! Upon check-in, our host Fernando met us at the apartment to go over everything we needed to know with regard to lights, heat/air, appliances, windows, etc. There was a detailed list of local eateries, places of interest, and WiFi instructions. All three bedrooms were well appointed with comfortable beds, linens and soft lush towels. We also thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful dining room table for breakfasts, group activity planning, and afternoon Sangria. The living room has a comfortable couch and great TV! The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, silverware, water glasses, stemware, bowls, and kitchen gadgets. A lovely espresso machine, with an ample supply of pods, fresh croissants, rolls, jam, butter and delicious fruit definitely created a warm welcome for our 6 night stay in Porto! A state of the art washing machine and drying rack, also, made our decision to travel light for 2 weeks in Portugal with (1) carry on/ (1) personal bag a workable choice! New efficient kitchen appliances kept our chores simple and easy. Would love an opportunity to stay in this apartment, again!! Kudos Fernando!!

Amazing Porto Apartment
Our visit to Porto was absolutely fantastic, and staying at this apartment truly elevated the experience.From the moment we arrived, the hosts went above and beyond—welcoming us warmly despite our late arrival at midnight due to a delayed flight. Their hospitality was exceptional, and the thoughtful touches, like the wine and croissants, made us feel right at home.The apartment itself was spacious, featuring three generously sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. It was perfect for our family of four but would also be ideal for two or three couples traveling together.The location was unbeatable, situated on the Porto side of the river. Many great restaurants , shops and of course Patel de Nata shops (recommend Fábrica da Nata (Rua Santa Catarina)). Everything we wanted to see and do was within a 15-minute walk, and getting to the iconic port lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia was a breeze—just a 25-45 minute walk or a quick and affordable Uber ride (6-10).Overall, this apartment offered the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and amazing hospitality. We couldn’t recommend it more highly!We also really enjoyed the great paintings throughout the apartment.

Perfection!
From the moment we arrived, we knew that we had selected a gem of a property for our Porto stay. Fernando, our thoughtful host was quite simply, the best! Attention to details, the quality of the unit and furnishings, the little surprises, etc. ... it was apparent that 'House of Joy' would live up to its name. If this unit is available, you'd be very lucky to reserve it. Many, many thanks Fernando for sharing your apartment ... and beautiful city!
