About this property
Casa da Porta Azul - Beira Mar Neighborhood
Casa da Porta Azul is a house located in the typical and original neighborhood of Beira Mar. Located in the old part of the city, the house was totally rehabilitated in 2016 and designed in such a way as to maintain the original exterior appearance offering comfort and well-being inside.
The house has a bedroom, a bathroom, kitchen, living room and dining room and a fantastic interior courtyard. The decoration of the house looks for the comfort, the functionality and the charm of the space. The house is equipped with dining table, Sofa Bed, Smart TV 40 "with 100 cable channels, internet and a salamander for natural heating. The kitchen has a fridge, microwave, induction hob, dishwasher and washing machine, coffee machine and all the necessary utensils for meals, if you do not let yourself be tempted by the numerous restaurants in the area.
The neighborhood of Beira Mar is the most typical and picturesque neighborhood of Aveiro. Here, in the center of the city, you can meet the most original characters and characteristics of the city (fisherman, salineiro, etc.). Close enough you can find examples of New Art just as you can easily discover a Salt Navy. Get lost in the Ria de Aveiro canals exploring the heart of the city. Oh and be sure to try the Moles :)

Wonderful

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in your apartment. Everything was there .The location was brilliant only a short walk to restaurants and the centre. The only downfall was the kitchen cupboards were very high although there was a step provided it was still difficult, especially for shorter people to get things out.
Check in was very simple. House looked exactly as the listing shows.
It’s located super close to restaurants and downtown but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful.
We had to park at a public parking area on the other side of the river and left our car there for a couple days. There was no issues with the parking besides it being about 5 minutes away. You can walk to everything in less time than you could drive.
Beautiful town and great accommodations!

Love the house with the blue door!
We stayed for 17 nights in this very modern & extremely clean house in Aveiro.
Felipe, the owner, is prompt in responding to any & all enquiries - he is a very gracious & helpful host.
The kitchen is a perfect open space for cooking, the bedroom is spacious with plenty of storage for clothes - and the bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is small, but light and airy - with a good sized shower and great water-pressure. The open-plan living area leads to a small enclosed courtyard, which is comfortably furnished. During our stay Felipe visited us regularly with clean bed linens and towels.....although there is a washing machine in the house. Wi-Fi was strong and reliable.
The house is perfectly positioned in the old town of Aveiro.....although only steps away from shops, restaurants, cafés and the canals it's on a very quiet street....so great for sleeping.
Thank you Felipe - it was a pleasure to meet you.

This was our first experience with Vrbo. Our impressions from the ad was a location in view of the canal and a full laundry. What we got was a place on a narrow street and a washer but no dryer. Mostly this is a communication issue and our unfamiliarity with typical units in Europe.
1. We didn’t have instructions for the washer and everything is in Portuguese so it took YouTube and Google translate to figure it out
2. We found the drying rack which we set upon the living room but we didn’t know how to operate the HVAC unit to help get the clothing dry.
3. Appliances in the kitchen like the hot water kettle didn’t work
4. The bed and couch had an odor that was unpleasant, maybe the disinfectant used by the cleaning crew
If this is intended for English speakers then an English handbook would help.
Really nice and quite place, well designed and comfortable. Clean and tidy. Comfy bed. Nice big kitchen, with washing machine and dishwasher. Well organized and easy to access.
WUNDERSCHÖNES OBJEKT MIT TERASSE .... ZENTRAL in AVEIRO ... PINCODE ... KLIMA ... VOLL AUSGESTATTETE KÜCHE ... SMART TV ... NETTES BADEZIMMER DUSCHE /WC ...
Für uns war es DER GENIALSTE AUFENTHALT BIS JETZT IN AVEIRO ...
Vielen Dank dafür Felipe
Typical Aveiro house from the outside but nicely renovated. We enjoyed the design and comfortable small private terrace. Well suited for a family with two kids. Thanks Filipe!

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Points forts : Proprio réactif par mail, localisation idéale, ruelle calme la nuit (travaux en journée), petite cours sympa, aménagement intérieur complet (manque juste un fer à repasser), lit confortable, espace de vie agréable.
Points faibles : Aucun contact de visu (direct) comme nous l'avons eu à Porto et Coimbra (c'est quand même plus sympa), articles IKEA bancales, canapé-lit peu confortable.
Ce logement est malgré tout appréciable, reste intéressant et est un bon qualité/prix.
Buena localización. La casa es muy bonita y muy completa, además de cómoda. Tiene varios detalles por los que vale la pena decantarse por ella. Muy recomendada.

Unsatisfied customer
Owner was not available to show us the apartment, entry by way of code lock. This apartment does not have heat, just an electric heater. When I contacted owner he was able to come the next day at 9 pm. Wood stove was available but no wood, he consequently brought wood on day 3. No clothes rack available washing machine worked but owner had to bring clothes rack when asked. No folder with instructions only manuals on the stove and washing machine in a bottom drawer and in Portuguese only. Did not attempt the tv. When I asked about the trash I was told to leave it outside front door on the street, the next morning the trash was all over the road which we picked up. Kitchen plates glasses pots and pans were in high cupboards that required a step stool to access these. Apartment was clean but dark. Parking was hard as not available on the same street. Some more care to details needed to make this place a better rental. It is important that owner or representative be available to explain how equipment is operated.

Beautifully presented house in very good location close to canal and good restaurants.
This is a beautifully designed and tasteful house with good facilities. It has a lovely outside partially covered sitting area. the location is great and close to all amenities. Philippe met us at the house on arrival and the welcome was great as well as the information he gave us about the location and Aveiro. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this house.

Great little house in a very central location
We based ourselves in Aveiro to explore the coast and nearby cities by bus. The central location made it easy to visit everything Aveiro has to offer such as canal trips, museum, cathedral, shopping, but also to access buses for the coast - we loved the beaches and the nature reserve - and cities such as Coimbra and Viseu, which are both well worth a visit. The flat was well equipped and comfortable - pity the sun doesn't reach the lovely courtyard in November though! The owner communicated well by text, but it would have been more helpful if he had been able to meet us on arrival, instead of sending his father who was very nice but had limited English and was not able to answer all our questions about the flat. We soon settled in, though, and really enjoyed our stay.
