We stayed here for two nights on our honeymoon in Portugal and it is truly a luxurious place. Everything was clean and well-taken care of. We prepared a few meals at home and all the appliances worked; we enjoyed the kitchen. The pool is heated and enhances the view from the living area and the master bedroom. The master bed and couch are very comfortable.

Our host met us to let us in and then came over to walk through the house before we left. She responded quickly when we needed anything. A few things to know: the hot water heater is just big enough to fill the tub in the master bedroom so you may want to coordinate using hot water with anyone else in the house; check with the host to see if the Sonos system is working if that is something you would like to use; the neighborhood is in transition so expect construction around you. These quirks didn't disrupt our enjoyment of the house and we had a very relaxing time. We would recommend renting the place and it was really good value for the rental cost.
