I LOVED it! Wonderful!
Place; As pictured, a beautiful, well appointed, and spotlessly clean two bedroom apartment. With a washing machine (hang up it dry). Delightful hosts!
Food: charming cafe across the street, wonderful restaurants around the corner (LOVED the Arabe restaurant and the Bistro Rio!). I felt safe at night.
Location: quiet, very safe, I was here for a month….and loved it. (Street parking available and safe) .
Shopping: Ilha plaza is a good local mall (Uber ride). And there are small groceries in a walkable distance… an Uber ride for the larger stores.
It is away from the tourist crowds (and a 20-30 ride to the sites), best for those a quiet retreat at the end of a busy site seeing day. The near by beach is not for swimming, but has fun restaurants and beach volleyball.
