"I’m confident it will be better over time, but right now they have quite a bit to work on. Many drinking glass were not cleaned and spider web on some chairs. Despite >85% empty (my assumption) we got an apartment where we had to go up some stairs to reach it. No elevator and not possible to change. The reception is not very quick or helpful. Took 10 minutes from the got or passports until check in was done, or even more. On the plus side, it’s rather affordable to be this section of...

Hosts were wonderful and communicative while we were there. Only slight downside was that once we left, the communication was almost non-existent although we...

"We spent ten days in Portugal and were blown away by the landscapes, people, culture and food. We traveled around several areas south of Lisbon but this Eco Lodge was the most wonderful experience of all -- we stayed in both the Tree House and the Bungalow.
