I was in Estoril for a wedding and traveled alone. It was also my first time in Portugal. Manuel and Teresa's place was exactly what I needed: 10 minutes walk to Forte da Cruz (the wedding venue), a well-appointed, charming apartment and warm, friendly hosts. When I arrived, Manuel showed me around the centre of the village and took me down to the walkway along the beach before finally introducing me to the apartment. It was a great way to arrive. Overall it was a splendid experience. I recommend this place highly.
