- "We cannot praise this apartment enough. From the very beginning of our contact with Annick and Antonio this has been such a pleasurable experience. Annick and Antonio welcomed us warmly and were so patient answering all our queries. The apartment is even better than pictures suggest. The sound and sight of the ocean are always with you from every part of the property... we enjoyed breakfast and, some days, lunch on the lower terrace, enjoying the sounds and sights of all those enjoying the beautiful beach. The kitchen is very well arranged with a wide variety of dishes. glasses etc to make our stay very comfortable and special.The highlight of course is the top terrace which includes both an internal and outdoor seating area. We enjoyed several hours reading, relaxing, having a glass of wine or just observing the life on the beach below. In the evenings we enjoyed several of the local restaurants serving the freshest of fish, cooked simply but beautiful. Turning right as you leave the apartment you can walk for hours along the Camina pathway stopping in Moleda or Caminha. There area few little cafes and bars in the centre of the town where the locals are very welcoming. We are already planning our return to this charming property owned by the equally charming Annick and Antonio. Tout était parfait ! Mary and Aidan, Ireland"
