The perfect escape for a family of 4. From the moment you arrive and Tiago welcomes you so warmly you know you’ve made a good decision.
It’s a great, comfortable space with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Lovely open plan kitchen with everything you’ll need (even a stock of cold wine in the fridge). Lounge area is great with a comfy sofa.
Beds are super comfy with good quality mattresses and cotton bedding. Double bed has 2 single duvets which is total genius if one sleeps hot and the other cold, no more duvet fights in the middle of the night. Second bedroom with bunk works well with a small double on the bottom and a single above. Good solid bunk which doesn’t creak when the person in the top bunk turns over.
The terrace if perfect and the pool is brilliant. It’s a good size and plenty deep enough at 1.8m. The sunsets from here are incredible.
Location wise it’s within easy walking distance of a supermarket and chemist though the walk back up the hill is a slog if you’ve got a lot of things to carry. The old town is 10 mins max walk and you find yourself in beautiful white washed streets with great shops and restaurants. Avo is highly recommended for brilliant Portuguese food with a modern spin and fantastic service.
10 minutes walk in the opposite direction and you’re at the Quicksilver skate park which my youngest daughter spent a lot of time at. Worth a visit even if you don’t skate for great food and to watch the skateboarders.
Can’t really say enough good things about this place as a relaxing escape for a family. We even looked at availability for next year whilst we were there as we were so impressed.
