House Sleeps 4 with Private Garden

Located in the centre of the village. There's a good grocery shop 2 minutes' walk away for all needs (closed lunchtimes, Sundays and public holidays). Restaurants mostly closed in winter but there's a good little cafe. There's a rail station (Mex. Grande) under 10 mins walk away that may look abandoned but has a schedule along the coastal railway, buy ticket on train with cash only. Infrequent trains so we used the ride share app to get to the coast which was as cheap as 2 going by train/bus. Limited cooking facilities (one ring and no microwave). Good sized bedrooms and good quality beds. Occasional issue with drain smell. Overall a pleasant and memorable stay.

I left right away, stayed in hotel. House was misrepresented. Not large house, but apt, no ocean view, no TV, no 2nd bathroom, not beach front... 20 min away. Heavy musty smell which was unbearable, he said I have no mold his word, not mine. Entrance to place was not the front door, but through like a garage which was filled with junk,hoses,stuff. Door to apt was covered in turf, did not lock properly, did not open all the way, he told me don't worry, it's safe here. There's a 2nd apt. in this split house that accesses same corridor, could clearly hear people talking, he told me to ignore the stairs. Bldg next door demolished, my husband called it Bagdad. Owner said I was being negative. I showed him his own listing, he said I was the first guest to complain, then he changed the listings. Not so, other reviewers on sister sites had same complaints. Pictures are somewhat accurate if you consider careful photography. Bathroom had sloped ceiling over toilet, banged my head. Terrible, aweful lighting. Only saw 2 chairs inside, one almost broken. Check his listings on here and air beebee under title Small Garden and Beautiful Small nice unique house. Not sure what standards other people are used to, but this was an awful experience. He doesn't like Neg comments, read his replies. Terrible experience and his attitude to my comments even more insulting. If you decide to stay, take these into consideration. Definitely not the peaceful oasis I was hoping for.

A beautiful property with the necessary comforts! Fabulous location in relation to the Algarve beaches.
