Hello :) My name is Mónica and I'll be your host! I'm outgoing and very sociable person but most importantly very passionate with tourism. Hosting people is for me a new career that started a few years ago with a family property that I helped to set up as a guest house. My main goal is to provide all our guests a memorable stay. You can count on me to advise you and recommend you some of my personal favourite places so that you can enjoy Porto as a real "Tripeiro". (Tripeiro = It literally translates to a person who eats tripes. Being the tripes the most traditional dish in Porto, it only makes sense for the people to be called that.)

The Carpe Diem Apartments are located in a traditional and fully renewed building that provides a comfortable and elegantly designed stay at a 25 minutes walk from the city centre. The house is divided into three apartments accessed by stairs (classic apartment: 1st floor; deluxe apartment: 2nd floor and loft apartment: 3rd floor). All apartments count with a fully equipped kitchenette, a double bed, a sofa-bed and a large private bathroom. In order to provide a cosy stay they all have AC installed in the living room, coffee machine and a flat screen TV. They also are equipped with a game console, DVD's and Wi-Fi access to make our guests feel at home. All the sheets and towels are provided as well as shower gel/shampoo and hairdryer. We also have an apartment with a beautiful terrace to relax and enjoy your meals outdoors.
