Unbelievable Porto Views! Lemago Poveiros 3B Luxury Apartment Awaits
Okay, buckle up, because this isn't your grandma's hotel review. This is a deep dive, a messy, glorious, honest-to-Porto exploration of "Unbelievable Porto Views! Lemago Poveiros 3B Luxury Apartment Awaits." And trust me, after spending (almost) a week there, I have opinions.

Accessibility - The Good, the "Needs Improvement," and the Honestly Hilarious
So, being a reviewer who loves a good challenge, I requested specifics on accessibility. The website claimed accessibility, and let me tell you, that’s where the fun began… or ended depending on your mobility. The apartment itself, inside, was actually pretty good. Wide doorways, easy to move around, not a single rogue rug to trip over (a true blessing!). They definitely put some thought into the design.
Now, getting to the apartment? That involved a charming Porto street, a slightly rickety elevator (which, let's be honest, adds to the overall Porto experience!), and a momentary struggle, mostly because I was overpacked as usual with my suitcase and my over-sized backpack full of tech and snacks. My point is, it wasn’t perfectly wheelchair accessible in the strictest sense to reach the building's door, but once inside, it was a solid win. They do have facilities for guests with disabilities, and I suggest contacting them directly for more specific requirements.
Food, Glorious Food! (And the Breakfast, Oh, the Breakfast…)
Alright, let’s talk about the real stuff – food! The apartment offers a breakfast-in-room option. Think of the classic scenario: you wake up, and a knock at the door reveals a delicious spread. The "Asian breakfast" they advertise? That was one I avoided since I was hoping for western style breakfast. I'm not a fan of "Asian breakfast" unless I am in Asia. However, the "Breakfast in room" was the greatest. It has things like: Fresh fruit, yogurt, muesli, pastries, and, most importantly, strong coffee. Pure heaven. Every morning. I mean, every morning. It became a ritual. I'd stumble out of bed, barely dressed, and stare out the window at the Porto sunrise, sipping coffee. Pure, unadulterated bliss.
They also have "alternative meal arrangements" which is really convenient. They had a menu to choose from. I would choose from the menu and it will be delivered to my door. They had everything.
Ways to Relax (Or, My Personal Struggle with Spa Day)
Okay, the spa. This is where things get… interesting. The apartment itself doesn't have a spa, but the surrounding area has a ton of options, according to the concierge. They could set up a masseuse, body wraps, body scrubs… the whole shebang. Being me, I was absolutely thrilled about the prospect of a spa day. So, I scheduled one.
The masseuse was fantastic, I will give you that. But the "Body wrap"? Let's just say it involved a lot of… something… that smelled suspiciously like seaweed. Which is fine if you like seaweed. I, however, do not. I may have been a little unenthusiastic. Anyway, the whole experience took a little longer than anticipated, and I was super hungry after.
Cleanliness and Safety: A Sigh of Relief (Mostly)
This is where Lemago Poveiros really shines. They’re serious about this. I was especially impressed by the anti-viral cleaning products and the daily disinfection in common areas. The rooms are sanitized between stays. Hand sanitizer everywhere. I felt completely safe. The staff are trained in safety protocol, and they're not shy about it. They had everything, but specifically, Hand sanitizer to be seen everywhere. Physical distancing of at least 1 meter. Safe dining setup. I appreciate the effort.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: A Porto Adventure (with a Sidebar on the Poolside Bar)
Okay, the apartment itself doesn’t have a full restaurant. But let's be honest, you're in Porto! You're surrounded by incredible eateries. And, the really important thing, the apartment has a kitchen. And a good one. Cooking myself some of my own meals with a full array of kitchenware has been a great experience. They had all the amenities, and that was incredible for me.
But… the "poolside bar" they advertise (at least, the possibility of one nearby)? I’m not gonna lie, I was stoked. Picture this: lounging by the pool, sipping a cocktail, soaking up the Porto sun. Pure perfection. And, while there is a pool with a view (more on that later), the bar situation was a bit confusing. It wasn't always staffed. There was a menu, though, and you could sometimes order at the pool. Anyway, it worked out.
Services and Conveniences: All the Little Things (and the Big Ones)
The 24-hour front desk is a lifesaver. I arrived at a weird time and they still greeted me with open arms. The concierge was genuinely helpful, and the elevator is super convenient. Luggage storage? Check. Laundry service? Check. But (and this is a small quibble), the “convenience store” was barely that. Mostly, I felt like I just needed the bare minimum. But at least there was one nearby. The wifi was AMAZING though and was free throughout the apartment.
Available in All Rooms - All that wonderful stuff!
- The Bed: Comfy, huge, the linens were soft. Score!
- The View: This is the real deal. Seriously, "Unbelievable Porto Views" is not hyperbole. You get a panoramic vista of the city, the Douro River, the bridges… it takes your breath away.
- The Internet: Fast, reliable, and free. A digital nomad's dream.
- The Amenities: Air conditioning (essential in the summer!), a mini-bar, a coffee maker, a safe box for your valuables, and everything else you could possibly need.
For The Kids - A Family-Friendly Paradise?
While I didn't have any kids with me, the apartment seems very family-friendly. There were things listed like: Babysitting service, Family/child friendly, Kids facilities, Kids meal.
Getting Around - Easy Peasy
Airport transfer? They can arrange it. The apartment offers a convenient taxi service and a car park. This helped me a lot since I had a lot of luggage.
My Verdict: A Messy, Wonderful Experience
Okay, let’s be real. "Unbelievable Porto Views! Lemago Poveiros 3B Luxury Apartment Awaits" isn't perfect. It has its quirks. It’s occasionally slightly imperfect. The elevator could be better, and the spa situation was a bit of a comedy of errors.
BUT.
The view is truly unbelievable. The apartment is beautifully appointed and supremely comfortable, and they're REALLY focused on cleanliness and safety. The staff is fantastic, accommodating, and they genuinely care about making your stay enjoyable. The breakfast is a triumph. And, most importantly, it's a brilliant base for exploring the magic that is Porto.
Would I recommend it? Absolutely. With a few caveats, of course. Be prepared to embrace the slightly chaotic charm of Porto, and just roll with it.

Okay, buckle up, buttercup, because my trip to the Lemago Porto Apartments - POVEIROS 3B in Porto, Portugal, is gonna be… well, let's just say it's gonna be me. This isn't your polished, perfectly Instagram-worthy travelogue. This is real life, folks.
The Unofficial, Semi-Organized, Probably-Will-Go-Off-the-Rails Porto Adventure (aka: My Brain on Pastel de Natas)
Day 1: Arrival, Awkward Apartment Dance, and the Initial Panic
- Morning/Afternoon: Arrival at Porto Airport. My flight was delayed, naturally. This already set the tone. I’m practically a travel cliché at this point. Airport chaos, grumpy passengers, the usual. I did manage to snag a surprisingly good coffee from a little cart while waiting. Small victories!
- Afternoon: Taxi ride to the apartment. The driver, a wiry old dude with way too much cologne, drove like he was auditioning for Formula 1. Made me clutch my bag. Finally, POVEIROS 3B. Found it! Except, um… the lockbox code. Took me, like, twenty minutes of jiggling and frantic Googling (while sweating profusely, I’m sure) to finally get the key. Note to self: Learn the alphabet…and maybe some basic logic.
- Late Afternoon: The apartment itself. Pretty! Okay, really pretty. Modern, bright, the photos didn't lie! A gorgeous view. But then… the unpacking. And the realization that I had massively overpacked. And the slight, creeping feeling of, "Did I leave the iron on?" Classic. I also almost set off the smoke alarm trying to toast bread. Whoops.
- Evening: First wandering. Found a little tasca (a small, traditional restaurant) nearby. Ordered a Francesinha (the famous Porto sandwich) and a local beer. Pure bliss. This city already had me. Except… I totally spilled beer down my front. Fashion disaster. Embarrassing. But the sandwich… chef's kiss. Absolutely worth it.
Day 2: Clumsy Tour Guide Adventures & The Quest for the Perfect Pastel de Nata
- Morning: Attempted a walking tour with a well-reviewed local guide. "Attempted" being the operative word. I got separated from the group within the first fifteen minutes, distracted by shiny things (aka: a shop selling colorful ceramics). Lost. Utterly, completely lost in the winding, beautiful streets. Panic started to set in again. This is me, perpetually lost, apparently.
- Mid-morning: Found my way back (eventually!) and joined the tour. Saw the Livraria Lello (the famous bookstore that inspired many of the settings in the Harry Potter books). It was magical! Everyone was so quiet and I made a quiet "wow!" Then, of course, I tripped. Right in front of everyone. Mortified.
- Lunch: My quest for the perfect pastel de nata began in earnest after the tour… and I'm incredibly serious about my pastry priorities. Tried at least three different bakeries. Each one was amazing, honestly. But I'm still searching. I had a slight pastry overload and felt like I might explode with egg custard.
- Afternoon: Crossing the iconic Luís I Bridge (the one bridge that seems to define Porto). The views from the top were breathtaking. Actually stopped and took a deep breath, and felt… okay. Maybe this wasn't going to be a complete disaster after all.
- Evening: Going back to the riverfront, a place called the Cais da Ribeira. It's packed and lively, and there were buskers playing music. Found a tiny little place and had Vinhas Verdes. It was such a moment. I then decided to wander and got lost again! (This is becoming a theme). But got to see one of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever experienced.
Day 3: Port Wine and More Rambles & I've Got the "Porto Blues"
- Morning: Port wine cellars! So many options! Finally settled on one (Sandeman, because, well, the guy in the cloak on the logo looked interesting). The tour was fascinating! I learned about the different types of Port, how it’s made and got to taste various vintages. It was a boozy morning, but educational! Feeling a little tipsy.
- Afternoon: Crossed the bridge again, to the Vila Nova de Gaia side, where the Port cellars are. Wandered around, window-shopping. I was very tempted to buy a lot of silly things. It made me really happy to be there and I took a moment to breathe it all in.
- Late Afternoon: Started to become increasingly melancholic as the realization that the vacation was nearing an end crept in. It was just a feeling of: the first coffee, the first pastry, the first perfect view, all gone. Starting to get the “Porto blues.”
- Evening: Dinner at a restaurant I had spotted that looked really nice. It turned out to be amazing, but the whole staff knew exactly the moment I finished a bite, came over, and asked if I was finished. I did feel a bit rushed, which added to the already slight sadness.
Day 4: The End (and the Promise of a Return)
- Morning: Last pastel de nata (I think I found the perfect one, finally!). Walk around and bought some silly souvenirs. Tried to capture every image of this beautiful city. Took a final walk down to the river, just to drink in the last bit of the atmosphere. Said goodbye to the bridge.
- Afternoon: Packed (again, overpacked, naturally). Final airport transfer.
- Evening: Departure. On the flight home, I was already planning my return. Porto, you charming, slightly chaotic, and utterly delicious city, I will be back!
Quirks, Observations, & Random Thoughts:
- Portuguese people are incredibly kind and patient, even when dealing with my terrible attempts at speaking Portuguese.
- The cobblestone streets are beautiful but lethal for ankles. Wear comfortable shoes! (I did not, learned the hard way).
- The light in Porto is incredible. It’s like the whole city is bathed in a perpetual golden hour.
- I really need to learn how to not get lost. Like… seriously.
- The food is phenomenal. Eat everything. (And maybe bring expandable pants.)
- I wish I could bottle the feeling of sitting by the Douro River with a glass of vinho verde and a view of the bridge. It’s pure magic.
Final Verdict: Porto stole a piece of my heart. It’s a city that’s both beautiful and a bit rough around the edges, just like me. And that, I think, is why I fell in total love. I would go back in a heartbeat, even if it means getting lost again. And I probably will. Because honestly, getting lost is kind of part of the adventure. Or at least that’s what I’m telling myself.
