Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Hugo S. 3 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Estadia tranquila e relaxante Ficámos satisfeitos com a estadia. Toda a comunicação com o proprietário foi super fácil, sendo o check in e check out feito de forma autónoma sem a presença do mesmo o que nos agradou bastante. Casa muito bem equipada ao nível da cozinha. Utilizámos o sofá cama, além dos dois quartos e o mesmo revelou-se agradavelmente confortável. Local muito sossegado, ideal para fugir do stress. Apenas aconselhamos um maior cuidado na limpeza das piscinas, embora não seja diretamente da responsabilidade do proprietário mas sim da gestão do condomínio. De um modo geral recomendamos, sem dúvida. ##### Hugo S. ---
