Maria Ana and her sister gave us a marvellous welcome - pasteis de nata, local biscuits, local cheeses, salami, wine and soft drinks etc. laid out on a table on a balcony overlooking the bay. Maria Ana was extremely helpful both before and during our trip and communication with her was excellent. The house was spotless. She offered lifts in her car and was flexible with arrival and departure times (insofar as this was possible). The house is in a great location and was very well equipped. Maria Ana provides all the necessities (and more) in abundance, which makes such a difference. She was a superb host and we hope to return in the future.
