This house was perfect for our family of four, lovely layout, modern, clean and well equipped with a great shared pool that was almost like a private pool during the time we were there. You will need a car as supermarkets, beaches etc are a short drive away but we like to explore so would hire a car wherever we stayed. If you want to get away from it all and feel like you are living amongst local Portuguese then this place is perfect. Not a full English breakfast in sight-unless you make it yourself!
