Super host Antonio Super location

Antonio was a super host - great welcome. Super location in wonderful gardens with a great pool. Fabulous location for the lovely Guimaraes and so many things to see and do in the locality. Check out the Cantina CAAA vegetarian restaurant in Guimaraes!

Excellent house with beautiful large pool and tennis courts. Photos don’t do it justice. Well equipped kitchen and two lounges, one with pool table. Excellent space for our group of two families to stay and Antonio couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating for check in, check out and sorting tennis rackets. Great outdoor space and seating with two large umbrellas and area for bbq with large wooden table under tree cover. Pool was excellent and cleaned every day. Air conditioning or fans in every room. Highly recommend.

Séjour extraordinaire.La maison est tout simplement somptueuse.Les pièces sont vastes, décorées avec goût. On a eu l’impression de se balader dans un vrai musée, entre les photographies des moments de vie du propriétaire, des peintures et des meubles originaux, bruts, d’antan.La maison comporte toutes les commoditéspour passer un séjour confortable (mmachineà laver, ttable et ferà repasser, cuisine équipée, appareil à toasta mixta !)Énorme point positif du côté de l’extérieur également. À disposition : un barbecue, une grande piscine très profonde, ainsi qu’un terrain de tennis ! Le sol est un peu abîmé, mais il reste praticable.La maison se trouve dans un écrin de forêt, au sommet d’un petit mont, reculée des habitations environnantes, tout en étant à proximité des points d’intérêt de la ville (café et boucherie à 3 min, Guimarães Shopping à 10 min, la foire de Guimarães à 5 min, autoroute à 5 min).Le propriétaire des lieux s’est montré particulièrement disponible, agréable et serviable durant notre séjour.Nous reviendrons sûrement ! Merci pour l’accueil.

Maison vieillissante qui mériterait un petit coup de rafraîchissement, mais qui reste magnifique! Perchée en hauteur, c'est un véritable havre de paix et elle reste pour autant proche des commerces (10min). Elle possède de grands espaces, chacun y trouve sa place. Antonio est toujours prêt à rendre service.

Grande maison agréable

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cette maison immense. Antonio est un propriétaire à l'écoute et très agréable Petit bémol sur l'accessibilité de la maison, une montée de 500 m est à faire donc obligé de prendre la voiture pour aller chercher du pain ( qui est pourtant à côté)

Spacious family home

The home was very spacious with a lovely swimming pool and tennis court. The property needs some maintenance. Antonio was extremely helpful.
