The description of the property was better than expected. Although I spoke to Joana numerous times before arriving we were met by here sister Anna, Joana was out of town on a business trip. She gave us a complete overview of the area, with places to visit in and around Porto, tours to take and restaurants to dine. As a matter of fact, the family owns a bakery in the area and we had breakfast there each morning of our stay which was included in our cost.

The area was very active and safe and many activities to enjoy. The family is wonderful and they all work very closely to make sure that we had an enjoyable stay. Joana sister Anna was a wonderful hostess in Joana's absence and the breakfast at the bakery was superb.
