My husband and I stayed at Jose's apartment for a week and were very happy with everything. Jose was an excellent host and communicated with us promptly and effectively before and during the stay, with helpful tips and advice. His lovely mother checked us in and made us feel very welcome in the apartment, where complimentary wine and an assortment of fruit had been left for us. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed as far as utensils go, plus some oil, salt and pepper was provided which is always handy. The apartment was comfortable, spacious (for two people), very clean, modern and nicely decorated. The location is great - one street back from the ocean, and only a 300 metre walk to the Sao Joao do Estoril train station, a few casual eateries and a supermarket. Very safe area and, although the apartment is located on the street front, it's quiet once you're inside. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was nice and hot and the WIFI connection was strong and reliable. Jose made an effort to come and say goodbye to us before we left, which was really nice. Overall a fantastic stay - great value and would definitely recommend to others seeking a place near the ocean.
