"Pros: Everything was perfect. I really enjoyed having the whole house to myself. The team was very kind and helpful. I rented a kayak and went to the private beach on the island across the house which I really recommend to do, it is absolutely beautiful and you can come to full peace. I will come back for sure!" ~Carlos

"Pros: I love the location; perfect for cycling and walks. Very spacious house with beautiful surroundings. Cons: N/a, just some tlc required." ~Petra

"Pros: Quiet location, close to Coast, Cons: Front door a bit tricky." ~David

"Pros: The location is superb overlooking the Ria Formosa. Beautiful, especially in the early morning and evening light. The cottage is very quaint/rustic and has most things that you need. It has a lovely, cosy feel to it and is very authentic. Amazing thick walls!! The peace and quiet is simply awesome. A very relaxing stay and far from the summer crowds, although supermarkets, boat trips, etc, are a mere 10 minutes away. The seafood restaurant at the end of the road is exceptional and a true local haunt. You can't help but slip into super zen mode! Cons: I do understand the excessive rain that the area has had & understand that it is an old cottage with very thick walls, but the musty smell was a constant over 6 days. We were out a lot, so it wasn't a major issue, but the management could supply some form of air-fresheners maybe, especially as I had specifically mentioned the musty smell at the time of booking (from a previous review)? We purchased incense & a plug-in wallfreshener, which helped slightly. Hopefully, the musty smell will disappear after a few days of higher temperatures. I don't normally like to mention negatives in my reviews, but I believe management could definitely do something about it, considering there have been previous reviews mentioning it. There is also mold on the ceiling in the bathroom (very easy to remove before a stay). Walking into fresh-smelling & clean holiday accommodation is essential & goes a long way towards your overall impression. Easily remedied!" ~Deborah
