I can’t fault Maria’s House, once their family home they have now moved Nextdoor and were happy for us to drop our bags from an early flight and leave them due to a late return flight, and help with advice about where to go and what to see. The house is stylish and artistic and we felt very much at home.
Our stay coincided with Easter and a family celebration in the garden and Maria and family made us feel very welcome, helping us with the BBQ, introducing us to some great Portuguese wine, and providing delicious desert - above and beyond anything we would have expected.
The house is in a great location - accessible to major sites and historic centre - but feels non-touristy and with a courtyard garden there is somewhere private to have lunch or an early evening drink - hopefully we will have a return visit before too long!
Highly recommended - thankyou Maria and family once again!
