Description from owner
Description
A 19th century building, restored and adapted for holidays, which for its wonderful situation, based on an islet off the coast where we only came across through a wooden bridge, served as a warehouse for wine casks, which were afterwards transported by sea in a time when paths between settlements were made by foot.
Located on the magnificent north shore the islet undergone several transformations turning the dock of Seixal one of the most visited nowadays.
The house arises from the recovery of the old building, from which the structure was kept, with respect for its surroundings and being incorporated a new floor in mezzanine which provided a unique modern architecture to the building, unlike the traditional typologies.
At your service there are two floors, at the top you have 2 double bedrooms in mezzanine with magnificent views, and toilet, underneath you have the social areas in an open space, a cozy living room, a dining room, and a fully equipped kitchen with a kitchen island.
The house is in a public and majestic dock so be advise that there is no private backyard.
Seixal is a village in the municipality of Porto Moniz, characterized by breathtaking landscapes and excellent microclimates, which makes agriculture and fishing its main activities.
It has various tourist attractions, including, natural pools, beaches, varied water falls (being the “Bride's Veil”, one of the most famous of the island), levada walks and on top the beautiful Laurissilva National Park declared world heritage by UNESCO.
There are restaurants, bars, some local commerce and also the privileged possibility of buying in the same dock delicious fishes directly from the fishermen newly arrived from the sea.

Response from the owner Thank you for your review Mr. Haim! The location is as described very public, It's a shame it didn't fit you're expectations. Also take some time to study the culture you are visiting, for example in the Netherlands they have huge windows facing the sidewalk and it doesn't mean people will stare. Kind regards, Joana
