After reading many reviews we decided to book this cabin for our holiday. Pedro and his family were lovely and communication was great and the check in was easy. However we werent prepared for how far away restaurants, the local village and beach actually were. If you do stay here we would suggest having a car as this would make life easier. The bus system was confusing and few and far between. If you are a keen walker most things are a twenty minute walk away and very hilly.
The cabin itself was basic with the majority of the essential utensils to cook and make hot drinks with (after i replaced the empty coffee jar and sugar). We were disappointed to find the ”grilling area” was actually just a rusty barbecue outside.
The pool was lovely (very cold but refreshing on a hot day) with a hammock and sun loungers.
We did get bitten alot by mosquitoes (obviously pedro cant control this) but it didnt help that the screens on the windows had holes in.
We would recommend the restaurant Taco do Julio (10 minute walk down the road) as the food and staff were lovely. We ate here several times as it was the only local restaurant that was open. There was a market on at the weekends which sold veg and meat so you can cook for yourself or a little cafe opposite that was nice too.
One last note - the hairdryer provided was really sticky which my wife found very off putting!
