About this property
WAKE UP TO THE SOUND OF THE SEA T1 CENTRAL-AIR CONDITIONING (FREE WIFI) 3 MIN BEACH
If you think this is the right place for you .... book the apartment and enjoy all that this friendly village can offer you
One-bedroom apartment with double bed, fitted wardrobe and a fantastic balcony with fabulous east-facing views, table, chairs and a grill allow for great alfresco dining; a bathroom, kitchen and a common room with a small balcony facing west.
FREE PARKING:
You can park on a small road next to the apartment. Usually there is always place to park, don't worry!
IMPORTANT:
Since 2015, Portugal has enforced a longstanding law that requires anyone who offers paid holiday accommodation to record the entry, departure and identification details of all non-Portuguese citizens using such accommodation. This law came into force in Portugal and most other EU countries sometime since the gradual implementation of the 1990 Schengen Agreement, which aims to prevent trafficking in human beings and other illegal practices. In this case, it is specifically Article 45 of the Schengen Agreement and the recent law on local accommodation in Portugal which has made this rule clearer.
For this reason, all guests of all bookings need to provide their passports so that we may have the necessary information.
The apartment has free WIFI but you can also have access to 4G Mobile Wi-Fi (for when not in the apartment) available for € 10 for bookings up to 7 days; 15 € plus 7 days (Internet sharing up to 6 users / devices) Internet connection wherever you go (Losing or breaking Mobile Wi-Fi entails payment of 70 €)
From November to April inclusive, an extra energy charge of € 15 per week will be charged
Monthly Rentals: Between November and end of February stays of 30 days or more (Low Season Monthly rate) DOES NOT include maid service or laundry, it will always be considered an optional extra service, which costs 25 € per week per week. both

What my guests loved the most:
Svenja (Mar 2017) the mattress was really comfortable!
Marc (Oct 2016) Tout
Anne (Sept 2016) I felt Maria had put a lot of thought into what her guests would need staying in the flat. The pictures accurately reflected the flat and its environs. The location was superb and I didn't feel the need to move far from the flat - it was just so comfortable.
Arantxa (Aug 2016) Thank you so much for all your help! You really dont know what you have here !!!!
IT IS A JEWEL !!!

Max (Apr 2016) “Die Aussicht. Die Lage Die Größe der Wohnung. Das bad. Die gut ausgestattete Küche. Eigentlich alles ;-) ”
Seb (Apr 2016) Lage (Nähe zum Naturschutzgebiet, Lakes, Strand) Die Einrichtung ist so schön! Ich würde meine Wohnung ganz
Laura (Feb 2016) Everything was really nice! Thank you!
Jordi (Nov 2015) Kitchen. Views
Bob (Nov 2015) The personal touches and the help from Enrique and Carla made us feel very welcome and of course the lovely views made it a holiday to remeber.
Martine (Oct 2015) Comfortable, belle terasse où peut dejeuner au soleil et faire des barbecus
Sven (Oct 2015) Greatest apartment of our Portugal trip (we stayed at 7 places in total).
Mél (Oct 2015) Joli appartement, propre et agréable. On se reveil vraiment aux sounds des vagues ..
Angela (Aug 2015) Highlight that was all very clean, so gusto !! Careful all the details ;-)

Lucia (Apr 2015) Terraza in the sea
What do you think should change:
Sven (Oct 2015) Nothing to do. It is perfect.
Martine (Oct 2015) super mieux faire difficile
Mél (Oct 2015) Dommage que nous n'ayons pas rencontré notre hôte. Cell dit nous avons when même bien été accueilli
Bhavesh (Aug 2015) Unfortunately the address provided did not have enough information for our taxi driver to find it. It was very frustrating. The check in time is very late, with an early check out time (although to be fair to the host, it is clearly and accurately listed).
