The House:
The House was impeccably clean, even the dishtowels smelt wonderful. We had everything we needed and enjoyed having so many rooms and bathrooms. Our almost teen girls loved having their own.
The pools was big (and clean), sadly October is a bit cold for my liking. A month earlier I am sure I would have spent more time in it. The girls did go in a bit though.
The TV has lots of channels, I couldn't really figure it out though. There isn't a DVD player, though it appeared as if you could have put in a USB stick to watch movies in with the satellite box. I didn't have one with me to try it out.
There were 2 bodyboards and a beach umbrella which we appreciated and took with.
The surroundings:
The view is as nice as on the pictures. You can hear waves in the distance. Walking along a dirt road takes you to the edge of a cliff where you can listen to birds, feel the breeze and of course, hear the waves crashing against the shores. Apart from walking to this path, we took the car everywhere else. Though there are hikes which would take you further.
There's a riding place 10min away and the family took surfing lessons at one of the beaches. In 30min you're in Lagos, where we went kayaking. So there is definately lots to do.
We did our big grocery shop in Aljezur itself and the other in a nearby smaller market. There are various restaurants around.
The Host:
Celina met us at the house when we arrived and showed us everything. We had the misfortune of locking ourselves out of the house, on a Sunday, and she very kind in helping us out.
Thanks again Celina!
Overall, very enjoyable. We would return again.
