We were with Joao for less than 12 hours, but that was our loss. Joao is a gracious welcoming host and his room is warm and inviting. His house is stylish and comfortable. Checking in at 7:00pm and leaving at 5:00am we had very little time to enjoy it but had we stayed longer I am sure we would have found ourselves not disappointed.
The incredible thing about his location is that it is a 10-15 minute walk to the airport and with a 7:00am flight we took advantage of that on our last day.
