Description Sky Blue Scene: Porto

A private rooftop terrace above Porto's skyline is the kind of thing that makes an apartment unforgettable – sun loungers, panoramic views, and terracotta rooftops as far as you can see. Back inside, the living area carries the same sense of the city, with Porto framed in the windows whether you're cooking or settling into the corner sofa. Steps from Avenida dos Aliados and a short walk to Bolhão metro and the Livraria Lello bookshop, you're right at the centre of everything Porto does best.

Home truths:
* At full occupancy, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
* If you're travelling with a baby, your host can provide a cot on request – worth flagging before you arrive so everything is ready when you check in.
* The wi-fi can be patchy at times – it hasn't been a dealbreaker for most, but if you're planning to work remotely or stream heavily, you may want to have a mobile data backup to hand.
