During check-in I enjoyed a warm and gracious welcome to the apartment during which the host presented me with a thoughtful welcome gift! The apartment is simply stunning and the neighborhood is lovely, proximal to great eateries, and a quick 8-minute walk to the train (Santos station). The best features of the apartment include the abundant natural light, spacious and private terrace, and beautiful balcony. I have immense gratitude to João for helping me with my luggage (twice!) and arranging a taxi to my next accommodation. Sandra and João are truly wonderful superhosts who truly go out of their way to make your stay unforgettable!
