    Green Park Residence is a very modern apartment (2007), in the Metropolitan area of Oporto, at Granja beach, 15 minutes driving from Oporto, and 5 minutes walking from the beach. Enjoy a delicious healthy breakfast, a comfortable bed and relax. Go to the beach or swimming pool (sea water or fresh water), or SPA, do some trekking, birdwatching, bicycle rides, surf, fish, golf, horse riding, light aircraft flights, or just have a nice walk through the 15 Km footway along the beach (these 15km beaches have earned a premium quality water and it's classified with blue flags). There are 3 hypermarkets around. Here you have all the options very close! 25 minutes walking through the footway from the railway station. At the beginning of 2011, I started to go to Porto by train everyday, instead of using my car. Usually, I use the footway and I feel that the quality of my life has been improved! It’s a beautiful and ecological opportunity to relax every morning. And I start the day full of energy! Espinho which has come from a group of fishermen and became into an important water resort in the 19th century, being visited by a lot of people due to it's well known sea water therapeutic effects, and very well situated, considering the railway built in 1870. Espinho offers you, as well, an important Casino, a water resort, where you can find thalassotherapy, as well as lots of hotels and restaurants, where famous sea products can be eaten. Espinho is well known for the fishing port and the wonderful fresh food. If you love to eat well, especially fresh fish...you are in the right place. Here you can see the true Portuguese tradition.

    Lucky to stay there

    July 19, 2011

    Excellent modern building in a quiet area. Clean, comfortable rooms. Our host was always smiling and helpful. Ideal if you like walking on the beach. Close to Porto and well connected. We were lucky to spend some days there.
