Jorge was a nice host. He lives in another apartment in the same block and was on hand when required. Upon our arrival he left us with cake and a bottle of port which was a nice surprise.
The apartment was nice and much bigger than expected. 5 adults stayed and there was plenty of room. Apartment has lots of mod cons which is great but is missing things that would have eased our stay (cleaning products, dishwasher tablets, lightbulbs! (nearly half not working in the aparment so it was fairly dark). In general cleanliness was ok however it was not up to hotel standard, particularly in the kitchen.
Communal gardens and pool are well maintained. There are a few sun loungers located by the pool. Pool was fairly well used at the weekend and quiet in the week, although this may have been due to the weather we experienced during our stay.
Apartment is in a residential area. plenty of roadside parking. Short walk to a very nice beach. Nothing much else to in the area. 10min drive into Porto, uber cost Approx €9 each way
