Villa très fonctionnelle et très bien équipée
Propriétaires très sympathiques et réactifs (nous avons eu une panne de chasse d’eau qui a été réglée les jours suivants)
Par contre il faut savoir que la villa est un peu isolée (on finit par un chemin pavé) la voiture est donc nécessaire mais du coup on n’est pas embêté par les voisins 😂😂
Le seul bémol est que la piscine nécessiterait d’être chauffée car l’eau était vraiment glaciale (les nuits sont relativement fraîches ce qui fait diminuer la température de l’eau), il était difficile de s’y baigner
Et un petit rafraîchissement des peintures et salles de bain de la maison serait aussi à envisager
Mais mis à part ces 2 détails c’est une superbe villa

Response from VrboOwner on 27 Aug 2023
Merci pour votre avis. Nous sommes vraiment heureux que vous ayez autant apprécié votre séjour dans notre maison (selon vos mots "superbe villa"). Nous ne cachons jamais que la villa est un peu isolée, ce qui nous donne (ainsi qu'à nos invités) une ambiance relaxante et calme. Néanmoins, "la civilisation" est à 3 km (5 minutes en voiture) et la ville principale "Vila Nova de Cerveira" est à 7 km (12 minutes en voiture) et offre toutes les commodités nécessaires (Restaurants, supermarchés, magasins, hôpitaux, etc. ). Nous ne mentionnons nulle part que la piscine est chauffée et nous ne prévoyons pas de changer cela car, pendant les journées chaudes de source, d'été et d'automne, nous voulons de l'eau fraîche et non chaude. Même si nous ne comprenons pas pourquoi vous avez attribué seulement 3 étoiles à votre séjour dans notre villa, ce fut un plaisir de vous accueillir, vous et votre famille, et nous vous souhaitons tout le meilleur. Bien Cordialement.
We had a great time, together with our friends. Nice area with stuff to do (cano, surf, etc), great architectural villa with lot's of space and a good pool. And the hosts are super nice and helpfull. Couldn't wish for much more.

Superbe villa contemporaine d'architecte où nous avons trouvé tout ce que nous voulions pour passer d'agréable moment en famille. Nous conseillons celle-ci à toutes les personnes qui veulent du calme (hamac au fond du jardin avec petite cascade) de l'ambiance avec la piscine et les transats, le jardin pour le foot... les jeux de sociétés, table de ping poing, wi-fi... de bon repas à concocté (cuisine très fonctionnelles avec tout l'électroménager dont lave vaisselle : très utile pendant les vacances, machine à laver), des chambres avec salle de bain privé, toilettes, dressing, drap fournis et serviettes de bain.
Accueil par le propriétaire très gentil, réponse à nos questions dans l'heure.
Village à proximité très agréable avec supermarché.
Bref nous y avons trouvé tout ce qu'il nous fallait pour passer une semaine de vacances en famille, nous étions 14 avec des enfants et tout le monde était content, très bon rapport qualité prix, tout est prévu sauf l'horloge qui nous a manquait pour les heures de repas tellement le temps passait vite, mais peut être est-ce fait de façon à profiter complètement de ses bons moments.
Merci encore pour cette semaine merveilleuse
