To start... I don't want to write a review so I can be sure I can book for next year... However that wouldn't be nice for our hosts Cristina and Paulo.

The place is fantastic... Cristina and Paulo don't want to put expectations too high. Pictures don't show enough how cool the place is. I think it is important for guest to understand what they are going to experience.

The house with pool and view from the balcony to the sea and sunset are spectaculair. But it is remote... The walk to the beach is 100 meters or less and there is a little bar with food and drinks at the beach. So yes... It is quite and you have to like that.

The sea is a little bit heavy and swimming for little kids can be difficult. Water is cold but hey... you have a swimming pool as well.

We love to surf and we hoped we could surf right at the front of the house. When you are really experienced no problem there. Break is beachbreak and heavy. Since this was our first visit to Portugal.. you need to travel for the best surf and that is close by... Praia Azul (still heavy), Ericeira (20 min drive), Foz de Lizandro (25 min drive)...

You can get your groceries at Pingos Doce, where they have fresh fish... really good (10 min drive).

We will be back....
