Nice beach location

I thoroughly enjoyed this unit! 15 min walk to the beach or to kms of boardwalks. I liked the tile patio for sunbathing. I liked the nice, well-lit bathroom. The TVs were nice - one in each bedroom. The washing machine was a moneymaker. It was on the ground floor, only eight steps up. The parking was free and convenient. But best of all was the host - Manuela was friendly and always responded quickly to my concerns.

Zona já conhecida e que é sempre bastante agradável,especialmente para crianças. Correu tudo 5 estrelas, mesmo antes da entrada (e obviamente durante), graças à seriedade e atenção dos proprietários. Apartamento com decoração muito bonita, cómodo e com os requisitos necessários, desde atoalhados até loiça e equipamento de cozinha. Óptimo espaço exterior que convida a grelhados e a excelentes jantaradas. Muito Obrigado aos proprietários pela atenção

Sugestões

1. A roupa de cama e as toalhas transmitiriam mais confiança se, em vez de escuros, fossem brancos. 2. O cortinado da banheira devia ser lavado ou substituído. 3. A varinha mágica estava avariada. 4. Ao abrir a cama pela primeira vez verificámos que tinha alguns grãos de areia fina.

O espaço envolvente correspondeu ao esperado, muito sossegado, ideal para quem pretende descansar.

A casa foi de encontro às nossas espectativas, limpeza óptima e com tudo a funcionar . Apenas a salientar que preferiamos uma máquina de lavar loiça em vez de roupa. Localização em relação à praia é boa, dá perfeitamente para ir a pé. O local é sossegado, permitindo uma estadia tranquila. Recomendo vivamente. Proprietária simpática e atenciosa.
