Pictures don't do it justice!
Neither pictures nor words capture this property. Our group of 8 (2 families) stayed here in August, and the space is spectacular. We spent hours outside - moving between the porch with the stunning views, the pool where the kids played for hours while adults read; and ending the evenings with an outdoor dinner by the grill. There was ample space to spread out, and the property was gorgeously landscaped. We loved hearing the tinkle of bells as goats roamed the hills nearby.
The kitchen was well stocked, and we especially enjoyed cooking on the barbecue outside (and learned it uses a lot of charcoal! part of the fun of cooking in a new place!). The 4 bedrooms and 2 baths fit our group well. The mattresses were quite firm- but as one person noted - it made getting out of bed quite easy!
Communication with the hosts was top notch and any needs that arose were immediately and totally addressed. They truly went above and beyond.
We also appreciated that this location felt off the beaten path. Our impression was that we were vacationing alongside other Portuguese tourists, with some French families too. We spent enjoyable days exploring Geres and scenic drives nearby; going to Braga for a stadium tour and a visit to Bom Jesus; and exploring castles in the surrounding areas. Such a memorable get away.
