If we could give this place 10 stars, we would. We were sad to leave! The apartment is well appointed, beautiful, comfortable - and that's before you see the veranda and the views! It is convenient to the Mercado da Vila, which is fantastic AND the Trilho das Vilhas - a wonderful greenway walking path along the river from town to the north - is right down the street and visible from the apartment windows! The walk down to the old town and beaches is only about 15-20 minutes (on the downhill side - might want to add a few minutes for the return).
Thanks to Ana and her Father for keeping everything working great and making our stay so enjoyable.
We'd highly recommend this place, but we don't want it to get so booked up that we can't return. Thank you!
