When I first came across this listing of the penthouse on Air BNB, it was love at first sight...
From the moment of booking till the moment of arrival, it has been nothing short of welcoming and comforting. As it was pretty last minute, the prompt responses of the hosts was very reassuring and made the whole experience even more inviting.
Arriving and checking in, my partner and I were pleasantly surprised with a Welcome Drink, a crystal glass of refreshing Porto Tonic!! BIG HEARTS UP as we had just travelled close to 5 hours by train up from Lisbon, in the heat. PLUS it was high on my To-Do list to try the Port wines here!
The Honesty bar filled with home-baked treats and even their own vineyard estate Verde wines were even more delightful!!
Sorry to spoil all the surprises here but it's all too beautiful not to share.
Right down to the Harry Potter feeling common toilet they had on the ground floor lobby by the kitchen... All so magical...
The only thing I wished was for the bicycle to be smaller to suit my tiny petite frame...
All in all, a serene yet high energy place to live in where we could do some work from home, visit the sites and have a good relaxing rest.
My dream home away from home...
Thank you so much Sophia and Sandra!!
Much love,
Noel and Adeline
