This apartment is really clean and spacious. The bathrooms and kitchen are excellent. The dining area and living room are comfortable as well. There is a ton of space on the attached outside area which is great for exercise or if your kids need to move around. The location has positives and negatives. The beach is just a short walk down the hill and the playground is great. The area is quiet and not too touristy and the running/biking path is great. The grocery store is about 1.6 km (1 mile) away and there are just a few restaurants in the immediate area. It's a 6-10 euro ride by Uber to the train station or 10-12 euros to get into Porto. The area is very safe so certainly no worries there. Wifi was spotty at times and there is no dryer just a drying rack but the washer works well. Bikes are available, but unfortunately were not ready to ride when we arrived and took a couple days to get access and get prepared for use.
Celso works really hard to take care of his guests and is a really great host. He helped us arrange an early morning ride to the airport. If you have any issues he will work hard to get them taken care of as quickly as he can. I would certainly recommend the apartment if you are looking to be near a beach and out of the rush of the city.
