Neighbourhood
The townhouse is located right in the heart of Bonfim, one of Porto’s most authentic and creative neighbourhoods. Bonfim has a distinctly local atmosphere, where traditional Portuguese life blends naturally with an artsy, youthful energy. As you walk around the area, you’ll notice art schools, small independent galleries, cosy cafés, bakeries, and neighbourhood restaurants that give the district its unmistakable charm.
It’s a place where you can enjoy the city at your own pace: slow mornings with coffee on a terrace, afternoons exploring local shops, or evenings discovering small, character-filled bars and eateries. Although it feels relaxed and residential, Bonfim is also incredibly convenient. Several bus routes and metro stations are just a short walk away, making it easy to reach every part of Porto without relying on a car. You’re also close to the city centre, major shopping areas, and the Sporting stadium, all within comfortable walking distance.
Bonfim offers a genuine experience of Porto, vibrant yet calm, central yet not crowded, and full of small discoveries around every corner. It’s the perfect setting for guests who want to feel connected to the culture of the city while still enjoying comfort and tranquillity at home.

Getting Around
Getting to the house is simple and convenient. The townhouse is located in the Bonfim district of Porto, easily reached by public transport, taxi or private car.
If you’re arriving from the airport, the easiest option is to take the metro directly into the city. The Purple Line connects the airport to central Porto, and from there it’s just a short taxi or ride-share trip to the house. A taxi from the airport usually takes around 20–25 minutes door-to-door.
For guests arriving by train, Campanhã Station is the closest station. A short taxi ride will bring you directly to the house.
If you’re driving, the Townhouse is straightforward to reach through the main city avenues, and you’ll find street parking available around the neighbourhood. Once you arrive, simply ring the doorbell and step inside your private retreat in the heart of Bonfim.

Liliana
Hi there!
I’m Liliana, a traveller at heart and a proud member of the People Like Us community.
I work remotely and travel a bit for work, but what truly inspires me is exploring new cities, connecting with people, and learning from different cultures. I’m based in the beautiful city of Porto, Portugal, and thanks to People Like Us I’ve already had the chance to visit quite a few countries. Each exchange was unique and meaningful, and I’m deeply grateful to the wonderful hosts who welcomed me with open doors and open hearts.
I live in a spacious and comfortable townhouse in the Bonfim area of Porto. It’s my little sanctuary, and it brings me joy to offer it to fellow PLU members who want to discover my city and my country.
