We had a great time and fully recommend this place. The apartment is very close to the beach (5-10 min by car) and several shops and restaurants are in walking distance. We had the pool to ourselves while we were there and really enjoyed the house, garden and surroundings. Cláudia was always available by phone, but we had everything we needed. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable. Great location for a few days at the beach and for day trips to Sintra or Lisbon for example.
