We had a great time at Joana’s apartment. The place had a minimalist retro feel, which I absolutely adored. Add to this the large kitchen window allowing plenty of light into the living area - ohh how amazing🥰 Joana made it possible for us to book her place super last minute as we desperately searched for somewhere to stay - we were messaging each other on NYE and checked in on the 1st, which is usually a very slow day in Portugal. She’s super friendly, an absolute superhost!
As for the area, there is a small but well-stocked corner shop with plenty of vegan products, which was a nice surprise. There’s also a local laundromat managed by a very friendly lady. Quite a few restaurants too.
We’ll definitely return if we feel like a few days by the ocean.
