Property Overview

With its feet right in the sand, this crisp and modern apartment is as close to the beach as you can get. Windows perfectly frame the Atlantic – morning espressos accompany views of gentle white rollers – and at supper, the sun drops into the ocean right before your eyes at the strategically placed dining table. The interior takes inspiration from its surroundings – it’s all natural textures, splashes of cobalt blue, pale ochre and cream. We were particularly fond of the Crittall-style partition and plaster effect walls, adding an urban edge to the laidback design. After long lie-ins and lazy breakfasts, step outside and you’re a mere 180 metres from the seashore. Praia do Carneiro comes alive in the summer with fishermen lining the jetty and locals strolling the promenade. But it’s a dramatic affair when it’s stormy, with huge waves crashing over the lighthouse. Bars, restaurants, cafes and the Mercado da Foz – selling traditional Porto fare – cluster around Foz do Douro, a five-minute walk away. Plus, the bohemian Porto with its medieval Ribeira district and sumptuous wine is reached in ten minutes by car.
