This is quite a nice house in the really great area of Colares. We have rented a few houses in Portugal. To be honest, this house was not the best one. It is smaller than the pictures suggest. The kitchen was not clean. The garden is quit spacious though and nice for the kids to play in. There is a paved part that needs to be fixed because it has broken tiles and tree tops that stick out. The middle man named Carlos is a surf dude who sends tons of text massages but was not very attentive to our needs. Only after a few days he solved our specific problem after having told us all kinds of irrelevant excuses. To sum it all up: it all feels like the owners don’t want to put too much effort and passion in it to make it a great experience for their guests.
