Waterfront holiday rentals in Praia da Barra

The apartment was clean, modern and spacious and had everything we needed for a relaxing visit. Several windows gave great views of the gondolas on the canal. Light filled the apartment during tne day but highly effective blackout blinds made sleeping at night a pleasure. We didn't have a car but everything was within walking distance. Walking back and forth to the train station took about 20 minutes each way. The bus stop to catch the public bus to the beach at Costa Nova is just a short walk from the apartment. Both Ely and Fatima were friendly, responsive and helpful. We would love to return some day.

Great location - a short stroll to the main areas of the historic centre. It was on the top floor, so there were several sets of stairs to climb. Dina was the local property manager and she was very helpful and attentive. Aveiro was a gorgeous town with very friendly people. Recommend getting town maps from the Art Nouveau museum on Day 1. Also the boat trip was made better by the entertaining hostess - otherwise it could be boring. Overall, a wonderful experience- highly recommend this apartment.

This apartment is simply amazing. Not only the apartment but also Paula's service exceeded our expectations by far. I can only recommend it.

We Had the best time in Praia de Tocha with Simone and her Family. 10/10 highly recommended

Thanks to Anabela who was a great host! She was very friendly and was helpful when needed. The accomodation was clean and was perfectly located. I would definitely recommend the accomodation for other guests.

The apartment is very well located and is very comfortable for visiting Aveiro. Nelson responds quickly to messages in a friendly tone. The apartment has all the services for a comfortable stay.

Very nice apartment. Joana was very friendly and quick to respond. The landscape is absolutely beautiful and the environment offers great birdwatching oppurtunities. There are many options for daytrips and nice casual restaurants to be reached on foot. Will definetely return.

Great place. Great location. Carlos was very welcoming.

Beautiful home in a really cool location with a sweeping view of the bay. I only wish we could have stayed longer! Jamie was there to personally greet us on arrival and made sure all went well. Highly recommended!

This house is very beautiful and comfortable. It has everything you need to spend an excellent vacation. It is spacious and has many lovely spots to rest, eat, chill, and relax. The place was very clean and tidy. The host was extremely nice and helpful. The directions to find the house were very clear, and he gave us very useful advice on restaurants and places to visit. The host was also always available to help and guide us (special thanks for helping us with the car repair). The location is quiet and close to the beaches (10 minutes by car) and the city center (15 minutes by car). I definitely recommend it.

We loved the house , we went to Family and we enjoy every corner. In addition to all the history and memory that the house represents , it stays in a great location, we need to divide it with the Touristas who stay The area of the kitchen and bathrooms renovated and equipped . Even with a little cloudy days and some rain we enjoy a lot and We have fun in Family.

We arrived and in felt like home. My daughter's loved the special cake that Marta left for us upon arrival. The house is well equipped with everything you need and more. The bathtub was a favorite, and the balcony was a wonderful place to relax and people watch. The beach is only steps away, along with places to grab a snack. We used the bikes for a fun ride and my daughter loved the game room area to read and do crafts. Something for everyone in a picture perfect location. The entire home was impeccable. Thank you Marta for your warm hospitality and attention to detail.

Valters house was an absolute joy to stay at. Perfect location with a short walk to the beach. The little shop ran by Peter was great for what we wanted and on our first day he gave us a beach umbrella free of charge. The bakery was great for breakfast, and the café/bar by the beach was great for lunch. We ate at Margherita pizza restaurant. Superb pizzas. The train station was east to reach and put uk trains to shame. We went north to Porto and south to Aviero. All in all a great holiday location.

Sergio's apartment is impeccable, just as it appears in the photos, the Turkish bath is amazing, the barbecue space too, everything in general, 8 minutes from the center, super well located and easy to get to, Sergio is very friendly, attentive and answers very quickly, my partner and I had a great time, I'm sure we'll be back.

This place was so magical. A big group of us came to stay for a half marathon in Aveiro and it was the perfect weekend - the pool was fabulous, the pond was so meditative, the sunrises were beautiful. The rooms were all super comfortable (3 of them en-suites plus additional shared bathrooms) and the kitchen was great to cook in. We were going to have lunch in Aveiro after the race but decided to head back to chill by the pool and have a bbq because it’s such a relaxing place. Plenty of space for everyone. We even had to stay an extra night because of the nationwide blackout and João and his family were so kind and accommodating - in the end we were so grateful we got to spend an extra night in this wonderful place! Can’t recommend highly enough and would love to come back in future.

We felt very comfortable at the place, you can highly recommend. The location and amenities were great. Thank you for the great hospitality.

We had the most amazing time at Hugo and Jennys. The whole place is just beautiful. Theres a great view of the river from the terasse and the pool is so nice. The kitchen is well equipped, we found everything we needed to cook and there was plenty of fresh vegetables in the garden that we were welcome to eat. We also highly recommend trying Jennys homecooked meals- it was great being able to eat on site without having to cook ourselves, specially when travelling with young kids. The food also tasted amazing. Our kids absolutely loved the place, pool and garden. Overall we highly recommend staying at Jenny and Hugos, the surrounding langscape is beautiful, the house is incredible and Hugo and Jenny are fantastic hosts. We are definately coming back ❤️

Beautiful Apartment overlooking the Atlantic Coast. Immaculately clean with everything you need.

Diana was an amazing host. Her communication was quick and polite. I had a flight delay and arrived a day late and she was very accommodating. The house was modern and spotless. There are some fantastic local restaurants near to the flat. The sea is very close. I fear this will become a very popular flat in the future and one will need to book along time in advance. Thank you Diana .

I recently stayed at Urbiluso Airbnb and had an amazing experience! The space was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. Urbiluso was incredibly responsive. I felt very comfortable and safe throughout my stay. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting the area!

Marina was very attentive, she let us out later to take some time in the morning at the beach. In addition to leaving us beautiful natural flowers and a couple of bottles of water. Everything really phenomenal. It had a very complete kitchen for a family of 4/5 people; and even oil, vinegar and salt, although we do not use it but it is appreciated what they have. Thank you very much.

We have never experienced such a well-maintained, clean and well-equipped apartment. It corresponds 100% to the photos. There is a large underground parking lot. The landlord Manuel took care of things proactively and asked several times if everything was okay. The location is right on the main beach of Esmoriz, separated only by the waterfront road. However, it should be noted that at the end of August, a fair takes place right in front of the house with corresponding volume in the afternoon and evening.

The apartment is very nice, nicer than the pictures, and very well cared for. It has all kinds of amenities, and the development in which it has many services, although we do not use them. It is next to a beautiful beach, which can be seen from the house Antonio was a very punctual host, we arrived at the house and within a few minutes he arrived to give us the keys and explain the operation. It's a totally recommended place.

Ana is a very friendly host. She gave clear instructions about how to get to the appartment and always answered my questions. The appartment was very nice and clean. It is located at walking distance from the ferry to Aveiro.
