We stayed with Joao last week and he was the most generous host. His house is in a very peaceful area, but only a few minutes drive from the airport. You would not know you were close to the airport as you don't hear any noise.
The house was exactly like the description and the room is very spacious and comfortable with a private en suite shower room/toilet. The room overlooks a beautiful garden.
In the morning we sat with Joao and had breakfast and an interesting chat, and then Joao showed us his collection of exotic orchids in a segregated area of his garden which was really nice to see. Overall we had a great stay and recommend this place to anyone.
