A home away from home
I loved this place. It looks like it does in the pictures. Slightly dated, but not shabby. Typically Portuguese. It’s huge, has its own little garden, and 4, yes 4 terraces. My 9 yr old had her own bedroom with a bed for herself and one for her teddy’s. She also had her own terrace and toy boxes in the room with toys. Our teenagers had a large room with their own en-suite and a door that meant they could shut us out at night haha. Before we came I messaged Nette a few times to ask if there were items like an iron, or a hairdryer. She was very communicative, and also patient with me, answering yes everytime. What I’m telling you is, don’t ask these questions. This place has EVERYTHING. After years of renting this place I can only surmise, that unlike other hosts who probably take and keep anything left behind by previous renters, Nette definitely does not do this. We had plenty of washing machine detergent, plenty of dishwasher tablets. Cleaning fluids, sun tan lotion, shampoo, you name it. There’s even a fully stocked drinks cabinet!! We loved that, but as we don’t drink we left it still fully stocked. But at meal times we did love to drop the door of it and stand our sodas, waters and iced tea bottles in there.We didn’t use the TV box, as we always take our own fire stick. However, I realised on tnf last day that the TV has loads of channels, and I’d missed the opportunity to watch the Man United game, and the snooker!! I want to go back already!
