We are a family of 3 and the apartment was perfect for our one night stay. Our 4 year old daughter slept on the day bed and we had a room separate but close by. The balcony is really special and cozy. And the apartment is in close proximity to all the essentials. We checked later in the evening in after a long flight, car rental, and drive from LIsbon and Catarina was accommodating and helpful. If you are driving there is a nice spot to temporarily park on the narrow street around the corner and then you can drive about 5 minutes (also a 6 minute walk) to the parking lot. Also, there was a great Sushi restaurant the is 486 feet from the apartment. The town is lovely, and so are the people of Portugal! If they will have me I'll retire here someday:)
