We spent most memorable and happy days at Rita's villa this summer. Its location is beautiful and the views are breathtaking. The house has everything you might need for an enjoyable holiday, as long as you don't plan to spend too much time using the internet (none of our Apple computers and phones could connect to the internet). The closest beach is about ten minutes drive from the house and is wonderful. You can watch spectacular sunsets from the villa and enjoy the serene ambiance of a Portugese village life. Rita was a great hostess.
