Review from one of first guests published in another website,

«From the moment we stepped into LEBAZI DOURO apartment, we were blown away. This place is on par with luxury boutique hotels in Paris and New York complete with a decanter of port wine overlooking the river - and it’s in the most stunning location in central Porto with an INCREDIBLE view of the Douro river right from your window! It is a place of peace, relaxation and luxury which still feels like home, a true slice of heaven! Isabel was the best host I’ve ever worked with. She didn’t just give you the keys and run; she truly guided us through our experience in Porto by providing ample recommendations and answering questions quickly. She made us feel so at home, it brought the experience to a whole other level! Any and all would be privileged to have a stay at LEBAZI DOURO, we are already planning our next trip back!...»

This is without a doubt a great place to stay while you're in Portugal! 100% recommended!

Isabel proved to be an exceptional host, taking significant steps to make our stay memorable. The Duoro Valley wine tour and river cruise she organized stood out as a highlight of our trip, adding a special touch to our experience. Additionally, her transportation service from the airport was quite convenient; Andra greeted us with a sign, which made our arrival feel smooth and hassle-free.Her home was not only comfortable but also located in a fantastic spot with beautiful views of the Duoro River. The kitchen was well-equipped, and we particularly enjoyed the excellent water pressure and cozy bed. Communication with Isabel was always pleasant, and the checkout process was straightforward.We also had the pleasure of dining at two wonderful restaurants from her extensive recommendations, and each meal was more enjoyable than the last. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Nothing short of spectacular.

First of all, Isabel met us at the front door, and gave us a detailed introduction to the suite plus at least 20-30 minutes of her time showing us on a tourist map places we may wish to visit/restaurants etc. Location is stellar if you are willing and able to walk the hills and explore Porto on foot. The suite overlooks the river which we enjoyed every much, and is beautifully decorated and clean. We had everything we needed. The bed is very comfortable!

Great location and host

We very much loved our stay in Porto. The host provided personal check in where she gave us map lesson and recommendations for things to do. She also treated us with complimentary port. The room was everything we needed. The view is great, but unfortunately construction outside made it less enjoyable.

From before our arrival, our host Isabel made every effort to make our stay in Porto seamless.

Luxury in Porto

Beautiful and luxurious apartment with all the touches of a 5 star hotel and the peacefulness of a neighborhood. Isabel was in communication from the moment we booked to when we checked out. Many suggestions of things to do and places to eat. She reserved tours for us which took the stress out of planning. We had the most wonderful driver and tour guide and a lovely breakfast delivered every morning all arranged by Isabel. We were able to walk everywhere. She is an exceptional host and her apartment is a perfect place to stay. It was a dream vacation! When we come back to Porto, we will always stay at Isabel’s lovely home.

Wonderful Property AND Host!

Isabel’s apartment is beautifully decorated and centrally located! I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Porto. The host, Isabel, also went above and beyond - providing us with a list of recommendations (restaurants, cafes, parks, events, etc.), and helping us book a driver to/from the property. You can tell she really loves her city and finds joy in sharing Porto with her guests. We hope to return to Porto, and will absolutely book w/ Isabel again!

Simply Lovely

My husband and I absolutely loved our time in Isabel’s flat. It was beautifully decorated & the river view was perfect. But more than that, Isabel was a wonderful hostess. We communicated for months ahead of our stay, helping me make plans. When we arrived, she sat with us for about an hour giving us outstanding advice of where to go in Porto (marking everything on a map). She even booked the Douro River Valley tour for us. And her restaurant recommendations were amazing. She also arranged breakfast for us that was made by a local woman and was delivered right on time which was delightful. I highly recommend staying in Isabel’s VRBO. You won’t be disappointed.

Amazing Time In Porto

Isabel's apartment was the perfect location for us to explore the city and enjoy the festival of Sao Jao while in Porto. Isabel greeted us upon our arrival. She and her son helped us with our luggage and spent time telling us about all of the recommended sights and activities around the city. The apartment was immaculate and a a perfect location for walking to many of the beautiful sites in the city. We were able to enjoy a view of the river from the apartment also. Isabel was so responsive from the time we booked the apartment until the time we checked out. She provided a lot of information about the city and answered any questions we had. We highly recommend Isabel's apartment and hope to visit again one day.

Wonderful apartment in old town Porto, great view of Douro River

The Host was phenomenal, provided lots of information, very helpful. Apartment is beautiful, clean, modern decor in very old building, opens directly onto steep, narrow stone road. View of Douro River from windows. Great location, short walk to River and center city sites. About 30 stair walk up, but worth it for the view and highly recommend if mobility not an issue. Added bonus is neighborhood laundress who does wash/dry/fold for €5,50 per load!

Kudos to Isobel’s support team

We agree with everything previous reviewers have said about Isabel’s attentiveness. Her recommendations for a personal 3 hour Tour of Porto and a personal All day Tour of the Douro Valley were excellent. Interestingly the two guides both regarded her highly as did the two taxi drivers that she arranged for us for transportation to and from the airport. She doesn’t suffer fools gladly. We were particularly worried about the 3:00 am pick-up. Would he actually arrive ? This was a needless concern. He was at the door on time. There is an old saying about “there being a good man or woman behind every successful man or woman”. In Isobel’s case i would say she has a very competent group of outside sources behind her.

Two nights in Porto

Isabel was a fantastic host, met us at the property with a map and suggestions for places to go and things to do, property was well kept and very clean. One word of warning, the property is on quite a steep hill, so those ith a large amount of luggage and/or those not comfortable with hills should be careful.

Amazing Host

My wife and I chose this place based on reviews of not only the property but even more so based on the five star reviews of the owner / host. This is the first VRBO I have stayed at where the place and the reviews did not come close to how great this place is and how amazing the host is. Isabel went above and beyond in all aspects. She was responsive and full of information. Isabel helped to arrange an incredible marriage proposal that exceeded anything that I could have arranged on my own. Isabel is proud of her city and is eager to share it with you. She has extensive local knowledge, and business connections to help you have the greatest experience in Porto and the local areas.

Beautiful city - great apartment!

From the moment we first contacted Isabel, it was obvious she loved both Porto and her home. She was very clear in her communications with us and built up our expectations - she did not disappoint! Porto has a lot to offer in terms of history, architecture, landscape etc and Isabel provided many useful suggestions re tours, sites and restaurants. We found her home to be very clean and comfortable. As others have noted while it is conveniently located to major sites, her home is in a quiet area of town. Isabel provided useful parking suggestions and we were able to secure a spot within minutes of the apartment. We look forward to visiting Porto in the future and hopefully able to again enjoy the hospitality of Isabel.

Paradise in Porto

Puerto was the first city we visited during our trip to Portugal. It could not have been a better experience, and it was made much richer due to the care and attentiveness of our host, Isabel. The home was beautiful, clean, and located precisely where we had hoped.—close to the center of activities, yet in a peaceful neighborhood. If you plan to visit, Porto, you will not go wrong by choosing this property, and working with Isabel, a true delight.
