Staying in the apartment of Maria and Miguel was absolutely perfect! Their pre-trip communication and instructions (how to get there, offers of help for restaurant bookings) was top-quality and the flexibility could not be bettered.

The apartment itself is beautifully decorated, a real feeling of home with the best of possible taste. The location was great - central enough to be able to walk everywhere but not too bang in the middle of noise and tourism.

Without a doubt this ranks highly in all the lovely places we have stayed and we would not hesitate to stay in the apartment again and look forward to meeting Maria and Miguel again - over a glass of delicious Portuguese wine!
