million dollar view
The view from the front balcony can't be beat as the view from the bedroom. The location shares the same distinction. The sectional sofa in the living/kitchen is not the same one in the picture but It was fairly new and quite comfortable. The kitchen is small but had lots of pot/pans dishes. Cutlery was a bit unimpressive but there was plenty of it. Daniel and his wife did bring some wine glasses which was nice and some other kitchen items that were needed. On our arrival the weather was somewhat cold. The condos in this building were not constructed with any heating apparatus, therefore we wore sweaters and jackets in the condo for the first few days, until Daniel brought an additional portable heating unit which helped. The weather improved after a few days and the apartment atmosphere got more comfortable and much more enjoyable as obviously these units are build for summer occupation in mind.
All in all, once the weather got warmer which took care of the cold problem, we started to really enjoyed the unit, the beaches , the numerous restaurants, bars,( the holiday inn across the street has happy hour from 6:00 to 8:00 every night..) the people of Portugal. and all it's beauty.
I might suggest the bed in the main bedroom could be more of a hotel style queen size instead of a double bargain type.
Daniel and his wife are very nice and did their best to make us feel comfortable .
We are both world travelers and know things are not like home, but cold in the house is cold.
Value for the money is a good way to describe the unit. We could possibly stay there again now we know what to expect and hope for warm weather
