This was a get-together trip with my 3 sons: 16, 19, and 23. We spent all of our 8 nights in Portugal at Raoul's VRBO, a new-looking, roomy, and clean apartment! With 3 bedrooms and a big couch in the closed living room, we each had our own space. The kitchen was easy to cook and eat in. It was our 1st time in Portugal, so I can't say how it compares to other accommodations. The location was good for us. The local beach is within easy walking distance, and there's even a small, less populated beach about a 20-minute walk away. It's conveniently close to a supermarket. The street has a fair amount of traffic, but the apartment has good sound insulation when doors and windows are shut. The underground parking was a real plus, and it was easy to make day trips to Obidos and Tomar. The beach at Nazare, with good waves and surfers, was a 20-minute drive away. It would have been good for me to know upfront about the several additional fees (cleaning, linens, management) and the fact that Raoul manages the place from afar. I communicated our late Saturday night arrival at a week's notice and got surprised with an 80 penalty.Otherwise, it turned out to be a good place for me and my sons to vacation.
