How do I even begin to capture just how wonderful this home and its hosts are?! I will start by saying this pictures do not do this house justice. It is so much more gorgeous and impressive once you arrive. It is pure European elegance while being warm and approachable. It’s a perfect place for families or groups as there is plenty of space to run around and play, along with hidden treats like a ping pong table and toys for the pool. Each room is thoughtfully designed and each bedroom has its own bathroom and wardrobe, making each room feel like it’s own little suite. The outdoor living spaces were perfection. The dining area is enclosed so even if there is some wind, it’s protected and you can dine in comfort. The kitchen was recently remodeled and it is perfect for cooking family meals.
Now on to the hosts themselves. Rui and Theresa were both so welcoming and warm. I would have loved to have had the time to have them over (to their own house!) for dinner. They were very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed and were quick to offer local tips.
All and all we could not recommend this home more. We can’t wait to go back and have already shared the listing with multiple friends for the future.
