We spent two nights in August at this villa and would have liked to stay longer. It's well equipped and very comfortable, and although there were only three of us there is plenty of room for six people. The villa is about a 20 mins walk to the beach if you don't want to drive. Lucilia, our host was there at the same time and made us feel very welcome. Thank you for your hospitality - the confiture was delicious!

Lovely property with a few surprises

House is in an unusual neighborhood and was very difficult to find because hand-drawn maps were hard to understand and were in French. Owners are absentee landlords living in France and did not communicate on WhatsApp, as I requested. Tried by email, but owner always used French, not my language! No soap, shampoo, napkins, paper towels, condiments, coffee or tea provided. That being said, place was very clean, spacious (could easily handle 6 people) and beautiful, a few km from beautiful beach. Good staging position to visit Braga, Barcelo and Aveiro, all well worth seeing.

A wonderful relaxing stay Chez Lucilia

This was our first holiday to Portugal and we were delighted and only wished we were staying longer than one week. Lucilia's house is beautiful with a lovely garden and is a wonderfully cool and spacious retreat from the sun. The house is well equipped and we felt completely at home. The nearest beach was about 20 minutes easy walk away, but there was also a car park and other beaches to be discovered up and down the coast. We enjoyed cooking outdoors under the grape arbour and enjoyed a mixture of beach holiday with a couple of days exploring in the national parks further inland. We also climbed the hill at the back of the village to the shrine of Senhora de la Paz - which gives amazing views. Cool Atlantic breezes made the July temperature very pleasant all along the coast, although inland it was much hotter. The beach was very quiet mid-week and busier at the weekends - it sloped gently and was safe for all the family. We found a great fish restaurant at Apulia and our children had a great day at Fantasticable - the longest zip wire in Europe at Pena de Ribeira about an hour's drive away. We strongly recommend this property.

Ferienwohnung mit tollem Garten

Die Kommunikation auf französisch mit der vermieterin war gut, die Wohnung entspricht der Beschreibung , der Garten ist sehr schön, es ist eine ruhigere Gegend, die Strasse neben dem Haus ist durch die Kopfsteinpflaster etwas laut. Küche ist gut eingerichtet, bei den Handtüchern hätte es bei 10 Tage Aufenthalt gerne eins mehr sein können. Leider hatten wir sehr kühle Tage, da war auch die Wohnung eher kalt. Die Vermieterin hat , nach unserem Nachfragen, den Kamin aktivieren lassen. Das war gut. Meerblick hat man nur in der Ecke wo die steinerne Sitzgelegenheit ist oder vom Eingang aus.

Un belle maison avec de belles personnes

Nous avons été informé suite à la prise de contact que les locataires seraient présent au rez-de-chaussée durant notre séjour. Cependant cela n’a en aucun cas impacté nos vacances. Nous avons rencontré des personnes d’une grande gentillesse ayant le soucis du détail. Et qui ont ont été très discrètes tout en étant disponibles en cas de besoin. Maison et extérieur propre. Beaucoup de choses à faire aux alentours. Nous recommandons !

Wunderschön ruhig

Wenn man es eher ruhig mag, dann ist es ein sehr schöner Gegend. Esposende ist sehr windig und abends eher kalt. Ins Wasser kann man eigentlich nicht rein, es ist viel zu kalt. Aber super Gegend mit sehr vielen Stränden. Für Spaziergänge, für ruhige Momente und Sonnenuntergänge am Wasser zu genießen, ist es TOP. Das Haus ist sauber, alles vorhanden. Der Garten ist wunderschön. TV nur portugisisch, Wifi vorhanden. Am ersten Tag erst einmal einkaufen gehen, da nichts vorhanden ist, auch kein Klopapier oder Seife. ALDI mit Auto 6 Min entfernt. Für unser Empfinden rochen die Schränke von innen. Gastgeberin war selbst nicht vor Ort, da sie im Urlaub war, aber dennoch super nett und hilfsbereit gewesen. Kommunikation über E-Mail, aber nur französisch oder portugiesisch. Kein Englisch. Google-Translater hilft aber:)) Im Grunde genommen waren wir sehr zufrieden mit allem und werden wieder kommen. Ein Tipp zur Autovermietung: Onlyrent in Esposende. Sie bringen das Auto wohin sie wollen, und sind so auch sehr hilfsbereit. Uns haben sie morgens um 3:00 Uhr zum Flughafen gefahren.
