The house was fantastic, even better than the photos suggested. It was spacious, tidy, and functional and designed using quality materials all over. The yard was a good size and well maintained, the pool was very nice (good size, depth appr from 1-2m and beautifully lighted at night), and there were several seating areas outdoors, both in the sun and in shade. The barbecue facilities were also excellent and there was a big dining table outside. All the bedrooms were spacious and each had its own bathroom with shower, which was excellent. The house was in a quiet location. A car is essential for getting around. The sights were mostly around Porto, Aveiro and the beach (all appr. 30-40min drive). There were good grocery stores nearby, some 10mins away, The hosts Nora and Joao were incredibly helpful, friendly, and easy to reach.
