  Loved it!

  Left on 02/23/2013 for a stay in May 2012
  
  

  We stayed here for one week. The apartment is part of a family villa. It was comfortable and had everything we needed - we made use of the beautiful garden and bbq-ed by the pool! The hosts were attentive to our needs.
  
  It is also well located for avid golfers, like ourselves! It is close to the Oitavos and Quinta da Marinha Golf courses. It is also a 5 min drive to Cascsis and the beaches. We definitely recommend this apartment!
