We are Ricardo, Manu, Cesi, and Renata – four friends who came together to create this local accommodation with lots of love and effort. This is not a property run by a big management company; it’s a home cared for by people who live right here in Porto. We know how important it is to have a cozy, welcoming place to stay while exploring a new city, and that’s exactly what we aim to provide. As locals, we’re passionate about sharing our favorite spots, hidden gems, and tips to make your trip unforgettable. Whether it’s a recommendation for the best pastel de nata, a scenic walk, or the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of vinho verde, we’re here to help! We want you to feel at home, and we’re always just a message away if you need anything. Staying with us means more than just booking a house; it’s about experiencing Porto like a true local, with hosts who genuinely care about your comfort and experience. We can’t wait to welcome you!
