Marco was an awesome host. I don't speak Portuguese, so he had his neighbors come along to translate. We were welcomed, showed around the apartment, and given suggestions of where to go in the surrounding area.

The apartment building is located on a very safe street and is a quick walk to the beach or the local farmers market.

I highly recommend staying at Marco's apartment. It's clean, modern, and well equipped. It has a nice view of the ocean and it has plenty of room for 4-5 people if they're sharing beds.
