The hosts could not have been nicer; very responsive both prior to our trip and while we were there. Joao was so helpful as to restaurant suggestions, the sites, how to get places, and all the particulars of the property. Truly, he could not have been nicer. The property was perfect for our group. The two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms were a plus. Lots of room to spread out and be comfortable. The house so very bright, with beautiful sliding doors leading out to the patio. The patio/pool and BBQ areas were so very nice to relax and cook (although the pool was not heated; had it been we would have definitely gone swimming!). We would highly recommend this property.
