I can’t recommend this property enough if you’re looking for a calm and tranquil place to stay just outside of Porto. Located about a 5 minute walk from the beach, Ocean Porto is a beautifully decorated and designed boutique hotel.
The staff are very helpful and friendly, the rooms are spacious, the continental breakfast is delicious with many healthy options, there’s coffee available 24/7, and best of all, there are several e-bikes and surfboards you can use during your stay.
I took one of the e-bikes and road down the coast, almost reaching Porto. I had an amazing experience seeing beautiful vistas and viewing the city from a different perspective.
A ride share will cost anywhere from 7-12 euros to get into the heart of Porto, and the price may vary depending upon rush hour.
There are a decent number of small restaurants and shops nearby, so don’t forget to explore the surrounding city of Matosinhos.
