Joao was a great host. Although we didn't meet him personally he replied to my emails and phone call very quickly and gave us clear directions for self check-in. The apartment was very clean and well equipped with everything we could have needed for our holiday. The location is great - very close to the beach, restaurants, supermarket and the train station. It was very easy to go into Lisbon by train. There is a lovely coastal walk into Cascais as well which we really enjoyed. We appreciated the bottle of wine Joao left for us. We would highly recommend this apartment.
